< Psalms 59 >

1 For the end. Destroy not: by David for a memorial, when Saul sent, and watched his house to kill him. Deliver me from mine enemies, O God; and ransom me from those that rise up against me.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki ndenge moko na « Kobebisa te! » tango Saulo atindaki bato kozingela ndako ya Davidi mpo na koboma ye. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe na ngai, kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya banguna na ngai; batela ngai liboso ya banyokoli na ngai.
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
Kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya bato ya misala mabe, mpe bikisa ngai liboso ya basopi makila ya bato.
3 For, behold, they have hunted after my soul; violent men have set upon me: neither [is it] my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord.
Yawe, bazali koluka koboma ngai; bato na nguya basaleli ngai likita, nzokande nasali mabe te, nasali na ngai mpe masumu te.
4 Without iniquity I ran and directed [my course aright]: awake to help me, and behold.
Nasali mabe ata moko te; kasi bango bazali kopota mbangu, bazali komibongisa. Lamuka mpo na koya kokutana na ngai, mpe tala.
5 And you, Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, draw near to visit all the heathen; pity not any that work iniquity. (Pause)
Yawe, Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, Nzambe ya Isalaele, telema mpo na kopesa bikolo nyonso etumbu; koyokela bato nyonso oyo basalaka mabe mawa te.
6 They shall return at evening, and hunger like a dog, and go round about the city.
Bazongaka na pokwa, bagangaka lokola bambwa mpe batambolaka zingazinga ya engumba.
7 Behold, they shall utter a voice with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips; for who, [say they], has heard?
Na nzela ya minoko na bango, babimisaka na bibebu na bango maloba oyo ezokisaka lokola mipanga; bamilobelaka: « Nani azali koyoka biso? »
8 But you, Lord, will laugh them to scorn; you will utterly set at nothing all the heathen.
Kasi Yo, Yawe, osekaka bango, otiolaka bikolo nyonso.
9 will keep my strength, [looking] to you; for you, O God, are my helper.
Nzambe, ozali makasi na ngai, nakotalela Yo; ozali ebombamelo na ngai,
10 [As for] my God, his mercy shall go before me: my God will show me [vengeance] on mine enemies.
Nzambe na ngai, oyo nalingaka. Nzambe ayaka kino liboso na ngai, atikaka ngai kotala banguna na ngai.
11 Slay them not, lest they forget your law; scatter them by your power; and bring them down, O Lord, my defender.
Nkolo, nguba na biso, koboma bango te, noki te bato na ngai bakobosana. Na nguya na Yo, sala ete bayengayenga, mpe mema bango kino na se.
12 [For] the sin of their mouth, [and] the word of their lips, let them be even taken in their pride.
Mpo na masumu ya minoko na bango, mpo na maloba ya bibebu na bango, tika ete bakangama na motambo ya lolendo na bango. Mpo na bilakeli mabe mpe lokuta na bango,
13 And for [their] cursing and falsehood shall utter destruction be denounced: [they shall fall] by the wrath of utter destruction, and shall not be; so shall they know that the God of Jacob is Lord of the ends of the earth. (Pause)
bebisa bango na kanda na Yo, bebisa bango kino bazala lisusu te. Bongo bakoyeba ete Nzambe azali kokonza kati na Jakobi kino na suka ya mokili.
14 They shall return at evening, and be hungry as a dog, and go round about the city.
Bazongaka na pokwa, bagangaka lokola bambwa mpe batambolaka zingazinga ya engumba.
15 They shall be scattered hither and there for meat; and if they be not satisfied, they shall even murmur.
Bayengaka-yengaka mpo na koluka bilei; soki batondi te, balekisaka butu na kolelalela.
16 But I will sing to your strength, and in the morning will I exult [in] your mercy; for you have been my supporter, and my refuge in the day of mine affliction.
Kasi ngai nakoyembela makasi na Yo, nakobetela bolingo na Yo milolo, na tongo, pamba te ozali ebombamelo na ngai, mpe ekimelo na ngai na tango ya pasi.
17 [You are] my helper; to you, my God, will I sing; you are my supporter, O my God, [and] my mercy.
Ozali makasi na ngai, nakoyemba mpo na lokumu na Yo; ozali ebombamelo na ngai, oh Nzambe; Nzambe na ngai, oyo nalingaka.
