Psalms 118
1 Alleluia. Give thanks to the Lord; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endures] for ever.
Bosanzola Yawe, pamba te azali malamu, pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!
2 Let now the house of Israel say, that [he is] good: for his mercy [endures] for ever.
Tika ete Isalaele aloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
3 Let now the house of Aaron say, that [he is] good: for his mercy [endures] for ever.
Tika ete bakitani ya Aron baloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
4 Let now all that fear the Lord say, that [he is] good: for his mercy [endures] for ever.
Tika ete bato oyo batosaka Yawe baloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
5 I called on the Lord out of affliction: and he listened to me, [so as to bring me] into a wide place.
Kati na pasi na ngai, nabelelaki Yawe, mpe Yawe ayanolaki ngai, abikisaki ngai.
6 The Lord is my helper; and I will not fear what man shall do to me.
Yawe azali mpo na ngai, nakobanga te; bato bakoki kosala ngai nini?
7 The Lord is my helper; and I shall see [my desire] upon mine enemies.
Yawe azali mpo na ngai, ayaka kosunga ngai; boye natalaka banguna na ngai na miso lokola molongi.
8 [It is] better to trust in the Lord than to trust in man.
Eleki malamu koluka ebombamelo kati na Yawe na esika ya kotia elikya na bato.
9 [It is] better to hope in the Lord, than to hope in princes.
Eleki malamu koluka ebombamelo kati na Yawe na esika ya kotia elikya kati na bato minene ya mokili.
10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the Lord I repulsed them.
Bikolo nyonso ezingelaki ngai, kasi nabebisaki bango na Kombo na Yawe.
11 They completely compassed me about: but in the name of the Lord I repulsed them.
Bakobaki kaka kozingela ngai, kasi nabebisaki bango na Kombo na Yawe.
12 They compassed me about as bees [do] a honeycomb, and they burst into flame as fire amongst thorns: but in the name of the Lord I repulsed them.
Bazingelaki ngai lokola banzoyi, kasi ekufaki lokola moto ya esobe; nabebisaki yango na Kombo na Yawe.
13 I was thrust, and sorely shaken, that I might fall: but the Lord helped me.
Batindikaki ngai mpo ete nakweyisa kondima, kasi Yawe asungaki ngai.
14 The Lord is my strength and my song, and is become my salvation.
Yawe azali makasi mpe nguya na ngai; apesaki ngai elonga.
15 The voice of exultation and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the Lord has wrought mightily.
Koganga ya esengo mpe ya elonga eyokanaka wuta na bandako ya kapo ya bato ya sembo, pamba te nguya na Yawe esalaka makambo minene!
16 The right hand of the Lord has exalted me: the right hand of the Lord has wrought powerfully.
Yawe asembolaka loboko na Ye ya mobali, mpe nguya na Yawe esalaka makambo minene.
17 I shall not die, but live, and recount the works of the Lord.
Nakokufa te, nakozala na bomoi mpe nakopanza sango ya misala ya Yawe.
18 The Lord has chastened me sore: but he has not given me up to death.
Solo, Yawe apesaki ngai etumbu makasi; kasi akabaki ngai na kufa te.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and give praise to the Lord.
Bofungolela ngai bikuke ya bosembo mpo ete nakota mpe nakumisa Yawe.
20 This is the gate of the Lord: the righteous shall enter by it.
Tala ekuke ya Yawe; bato ya sembo bakotelaka na ekuke yango.
21 I will give thanks to you; because you have heard me, and are become my salvation.
Nasanzolaka Yo, pamba te oyanolaki ngai mpe opesaki ngai elonga.
22 The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner.
Libanga oyo batongi ndako babwakaki ekomi libanga ya songe ya ndako, mpe esimbi ndako mobimba.
23 This has been done of the Lord; and it is wonderful in our eyes.
Ezali Yawe nde alingaki bongo, mpe ezali penza likambo ya kokamwa na miso na biso!
24 This is the day which the Lord has made: let us exult and rejoice in it.
Tala mokolo oyo Yawe asali; tika ete tosepela mpe toganga na esengo mpo na mokolo yango!
25 O Lord, save now: O Lord, send now prosperity.
Yawe, nabondeli Yo, pesa lobiko. Yawe, nabondeli Yo, pesa elonga.
26 Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord: we have blessed you out of the house of the Lord.
Tika ete apambolama, Ye oyo ayei na Kombo ya Nkolo! Tozali kopambola bino wuta na Tempelo ya Yawe.
27 God is the Lord, and he has shined upon us: celebrate the feast with thick [branches, binding the victims] even to the horns of the altar.
Yawe azali Nzambe, mpe angengisaki biso. Bokota na molongo, bomema mandalala na maboko mpe bokende kino na maseke ya etumbelo.
28 You are my God, and I will give you thanks: you are my God, and I will exalt you. I will give thanks to you, for you have heard me, and are become my salvation.
Ozali Nzambe na ngai, nasanzolaka Yo! Ozali Nzambe na ngai, nanetolaka Yo.
29 Give thanks to the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy [endures] for ever.
Bosanzola Yawe, pamba te azali malamu, pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!
