Psalms 50

1 A Psalm for Asaph. The God of gods, the Lord, has spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun to the going down [thereof].

Nkunga Asafi. Nkua lulendo; Nzambi, Yave tubidi ayi kutikisidi ntoto tonina ku ntotukilanga thangu nate buangu keti diamina.

2 Out of Sion [comes] the excellence of his beauty.

Tona ku Sioni, wufuana mu kitoko; Nzambi weti kienzuka.

3 God, our God, shall come manifestly, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall be kindled before him, and round about him there shall be a very great tempest.

Nzambi eto wulembo yizi, ayi kalendi ba dio sui ko; mbazu yilembo zinisa ku ntualꞌandi ayi vuka kingolo kinzungididi.

4 He shall summon the heaven above, and the earth, that he may judge his people.

Niandi wunkutikisanga diyilu ku yilu ayi ntoto mu diambu kasambisa batu bandi:

5 Assemble you his saints to him, those that have engaged in a covenant with him upon sacrifices.

Lukhutikisila batu bama bobo ndibieka, bobo bavanga yama Nguizani mu nzila yi makaba.

6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge. (Pause)

Ayi diyilu dilembo yamikisa busonga buandi, bila Nzambi niandi veka zuzi.

7 Hear, my people, and I will speak to you, O Israel: and I will testify to you: I am God, your God.

Luwa, beno batu bama; Ndiela tuba: A Iseli, ayi ndieka ntelama kimbangi mu diambu diaku: Minu ndidi Nzambi; Nzambi aku.

8 I will not reprove you on account of your sacrifices; for your whole burnt offerings are before me continually.

Ndilendi kutemina ko mu diambu di makaba maku voti makaba maku mayoko; momo madi thangu ka thangu va ntualꞌama,

9 I will take no bullocks out of your house, nor he-goats out of your flocks.

Ndisi mfunu wu ngombi yi mbakala yi luphangu luaku ko, voti zikhombo zi ziphaka ziaku ko.

10 For all the wild beasts of the thicket are mine, the cattle on the mountains, and oxen.

Bila minu phuidi bibulu bioso bi nsitu ayi bibulu bioso binkalanga mu miongo.

11 I know all the birds of the sky; and the beauty of the field is mine.

Nzebi zinuni zioso zi miongo, ayi minu phuidi bivangu bidi mu zitsola,

12 If I should be hungry, I will not tell you: for the world is mine, and the fullness of it.

Enati nzala ndimona, buna ndilendi kukamba buawu ko bila minu phuidi nza ayi bibioso bidi muawu.

13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?

Minu minsuni mi zingombi zimbakala ndiela dia voti ndieka nua menga ma zikhombo e?

14 Offer to God the sacrifice of praise; and pay your vows to the Most High.

Tambika makaba ma phutudulu matondo kuidi Nzambi ayi dukisanga zitsila ziaku kuidi Nzambi yizangama.

15 And call upon me in the day of affliction; and I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me. (Pause)

Ayi wuthela mu lumbu ki ziphasi, ndiela ku kula ayi ngeyo wela kunzitisa.

16 But to the sinner God has said, Why do you declare my ordinances, and take up my covenant in your mouth?

Vayi Nzambi wulembo kambi mutu wumbimbi: “Mu minsua mbi wulembo tangilanga mina miama e? Voti bila mbi weti natina Nguizani yama mu bididi biaku e?

17 Whereas you have hated instruction, and have cast my words behind [you].

Ngeyo wunlendanga zindongi ziama ayi wuloza mambu mama ku manima maku.

18 If you saw a thief, you ran along with him, and have cast in your lot with adulterers.

Ngeyo bu mueni muivi, buna weti bundana yandi. Bosi ngeyo wumvuandanga va kimosi ayi mitsuza.

19 Your mouth has multiplied wickedness, and your tongue has framed deceit.

Wunsadilanga munuꞌaku mu diambu di mambimbi, ayi wunsadilanga ludimi luaku mu diambu di luvunu.

20 You did sit and speak against your brother, and did scandalize your mother's son.

Ngeyo wuntubidilanga khombꞌaku ku ndambu mu zithangu zioso; Ngeyo wuvuezanga muana bakala wubuta ngudi aku.

21 These things you did, and I kept silence: you thought wickedly that I should be like you, [but] I will reprove you, and set [your offences] before you.

Mambu mana mawu wuvanga vayi ndiba dio sui. Ngeyo wubanzila ti minu ndedikini banga ngeyo Vayi minu ndiela kutubidila ayi kufunda va zizi kiaku ku ntuala meso maku.

22 Now consider these things, you that forget God, lest he rend [you], and there is no deliverer.

Luyindula diambu diadi: beno lunzimbakananga Nzambi; nganu ndilenda kulukanzuna mu bitini, ayi mutu wulenda kula kalendi monika ko.

23 The sacrifice of praise will glorify me: and that is the way wherein I will show to him the salvation of God.

Woso wuntambikanga makaba ma phutudulu matondo buna wukunzitisa, ayi weti kubika nzila muingi ndimmonisa phulusu yi Nzambi.”
