Psalms 97
1 For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.
Yave weti yala, bika ntoto wuyangalala. Bika bisanga biobi bidi thama bimona nkini.
2 Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the establishment of his throne.
Matuti ayi tombi kinkobo binzungididi. Busonga ayi bufuana biawu fundasio yi kundu kiandi ki kipfumu.
3 Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.
Mbazu yeti kuenda ku ntualꞌandi ayi yeti zinisa batu bobo beti kunlenda ku kadika ndambu
4 His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
Zitsiemo ziandi zieti kienzula nza, ntoto weti mona ayi weti tita.
5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Miongo misiuta banga mafuta momo beti vinda mu bikundu va ntuala Yave, va ntuala Yave wu ntoto wumvimba.
6 The heavens have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.
Diyilu dieti yamikina busonga buandi ayi batu boso beti mona nkembo andi.
7 Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all ye his angels.
Babo bobo bambuongiminanga zimfikula beti fua tsoni; bobo beti kukiniemisa mu diambu di bitumba. Lumbuongimina, beno zinzambi zioso.
8 Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of thy judgments, O Lord.
Sioni weti wa ayi weti mona khini ayi bana ba baketo ba Yuda beti yangalala mu diambu di zinzengolo ziaku, a Yave.
9 For thou art Lord most high over all the earth; thou art greatly exalted above all gods.
Bila ngeyo Yave, widi Nzambi yizangama va ntoto wumvimba. Ngeyo widi wuyayusu ngolo va yilu zinzambi zioso.
10 Ye that love the Lord, hate evil; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.
Bika babo beti zola Yave, balenda mambimbi. Bila weti keba luzingu lu banlongo bandi. Niandi wukubakulanga mu mioko mi batu bambimbi.
11 Light is sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Kiezila kieti totuka mu diambu di batu basonga ayi khini mu diambu di bobo badi lulama mu mintima.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.
Bika lumona khini mu Yave, beno luidi basonga ayi luzitisa dizina diandi di nlongo.
