< Psalms 85 >
1 For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core. O Lord, you has taken pleasure in your land: you have turned back the captivity of Jacob.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya bana ya Kore. Yawe, osalelaki mboka na Yo bolamu, ozongisaki bato ya Jakobi, oyo bazalaki na bowumbu,
2 You have forgiven your people their transgressions; you has covered all their sins. (Pause)
olimbisaki mabe ya bato na Yo mpe olongolaki masumu na bango nyonso.
3 You has caused all your wrath to cease: you have turned from your fierce anger.
Otikaki kanda na Yo nyonso ya makasi mpe okitisaki motema na Yo.
4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and turn your anger away from us.
Nzambe Mobikisi na biso, zongela biso! Longola kanda na Yo na tina na biso!
5 Wouldest you be angry with us for ever? or will you continue your wrath from generation to generation?
Boni, okosilikela biso penza mpo na libela? Okokangela penza biso kanda mpo na tango nyonso?
6 O God, you will turn and quicken us; and your people shall rejoice in you.
Okozongisela biso lisusu bomoi te mpo ete bato na Yo basepela kati na Yo?
7 Show us your mercy, O Lord, and grant us your salvation.
Yawe, talisa biso bolingo na Yo, mpe pesa biso lobiko na Yo!
8 I will hear what the Lord God will say concerning me: for he shall speak peace to his people, and to his saints, and to those that turn their heart towards him.
Yawe, nakoyoka maloba na Nzambe; pamba te alobaka mpo na kimia ya bato na Ye mpe ya bayengebene na Ye. Kasi tika ete bazongela te botomboki na bango.
9 Moreover his salvation is near them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.
Solo, lobiko na Ye ezali pene ya bato oyo batosaka Ye mpo ete nkembo na Ye ewumela kati na mboka na biso.
10 Mercy and truth are met together: righteousness and peace have kissed [each other].
Bolingo mpe boyengebene ekutanaka, bosembo mpe kimia eyambanaka.
11 Truth has sprung out of the earth; and righteousness has looked down from heaven.
Bosolo ebotaka wuta na mabele, mpe bosembo etalaka wuta na likolo.
12 For the Lord will give goodness; and our land shall yield her fruit.
Ye moko Yawe akopesa esengo, mpe mabele na biso ekobota bambuma.
13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set his steps in the way.
Bosembo etambolaka liboso na Ye mpe elakisaka nzela oyo ekolekela.
