< Psalms 36 >

1 Unto the end. To the servant of the Lord, David himself. The unjust one has said within himself that he would commit offenses. There is no fear of God before his eyes.
Nzembo ya Davidi, mowumbu ya Yawe. Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Kati na motema na ngai, nazali na sango kowuta na Nzambe na tina na bato mabe oyo batondi na masumu: Kotosa Nzambe ezali na tina ata moke te na miso na bango.
2 For he has acted deceitfully in his sight, such that his iniquity will be found to be hatred.
Bamipesaka lokumu makasi, bandimaka te mpe bayinaka masumu na bango te.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He is unwilling to understand, so that he may act well.
Minoko na bango ebimisaka maloba mabe mpe lokuta, baboyaka kosala na bokebi mpe kosala bolamu.
4 He has been considering iniquity on his bed. He has set himself on every way that is not good; moreover, he has not hated evil.
Ezala na bambeto na bango, basalaka kaka mabongisi ya kosala mabe, batambolaka te mpo na kosala bolamu mpe baboyaka mabe te.
5 Lord, your mercy is in heaven, and your truth is even to the clouds.
Yawe, bolingo na Yo ekenda kino na likolo, boyengebene na Yo kino na mapata.
6 Your justice is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are a great abyss. Men and beasts, you will save, O Lord.
Bosembo na Yo ezali lokola bangomba ya Nzambe, mikano na Yo ezali mozindo lokola lubwaku ya molayi. Yawe, obikisaka bato mpe banyama.
7 How you have multiplied your mercy, O God! And so the sons of men will hope under the cover of your wings.
Oh Nzambe, tala ndenge nini bolingo na Yo ezali motuya! Bato bazwaka ebombamelo na elili ya mapapu na Yo.
8 They will be inebriated with the fruitfulness of your house, and you will give them to drink from the torrent of your enjoyment.
Baliaka mpe batondaka bilei ya Ndako na Yo, mpe omelisaka bango mayi kowuta na bolingo monene na Yo.
9 For with you is the fountain of life; and within your light, we will see the light.
Pamba te etima ya bomoi ezali elongo na Yo; kati na pole na Yo nde tomonaka pole.
10 Extend your mercy before those who know you, and your justice to these, who are upright in heart.
Koba kotalisa bolingo na Yo epai ya bato oyo bayebi Yo, mpe bosembo na Yo epai ya bato ya mitema alima.
11 May arrogant feet not approach me, and may the hand of the sinner not disturb me.
Tika ete bato ya lolendo bakoma te kino epai na ngai, mpe tika ete bato mabe babengana ngai te.
12 In that place, those who work iniquity have fallen. They have been expelled; they were not able to stand.
Tala ndenge nini bato ya misala mabe bakweyi, balali na mabele, bazangi makoki ya kotelema.
