< Psalms 64 >

1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my prayer of supplication. Rescue my soul from the fear of the enemy.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe, yoka mongongo na ngai kati kolela na ngai, batela ngai mosika ya monguna oyo azali kopesa ngai somo.
2 You have protected me from the assembly of the malignant, from a multitude of workers of iniquity.
Bomba ngai mosika ya mikano ya bato mabe, mosika ya makita ya bato ya misala mabe.
3 For they have sharpened their tongues like a sword; they have formed their bow into a bitter thing,
Bapelisaka lolemo na bango ndenge bapelisaka mopanga, babimisaka maloba ya bololo lokola makonga
4 so that they may shoot arrows from hiding at the immaculate.
mpo na kobwakela, na kobombama, moto oyo azangi pamela; babangaka te kobwakela ye yango na mbalakata.
5 They will suddenly shoot arrows at him, and they will not be afraid. They are resolute in their wicked talk. They have discussed hidden snares. They have said, “Who will see them?”
Balendisanaka mpo na mabongisi mabe, bayokanaka kotia mitambo; balobaka: « Nani akomona yango? »
6 They have been searching carefully for iniquities. Their exhaustive search has failed. Man will approach with a deep heart,
Basalaka mabongisi ya kosala bato mabe, balobaka: « Toselingwi na mabongisi na biso! » Makanisi mpe motema ya moto ezali mozindo makasi.
7 and God will be exalted. The arrows of the little ones have become their wounds,
Kasi Nzambe akobwakela bango makonga na Ye na mbalakata; ekozwa mpe ekozokisa bango.
8 and their tongues have been weakened against them. All those who saw them have been troubled;
Maloba na bango moko ekobalukela bango mpe ekomema bango na libebi; mpe moto nyonso oyo akomona bango akoningisa moto.
9 and every man was afraid. And they announced the works of God, and they understood his acts.
Bato nyonso bakokoma kobanga, kopanza sango ya misala ya Nzambe mpe kososola makambo oyo asalaka.
10 The just will rejoice in the Lord, and they will hope in him. And all the upright of heart will be praised.
Moto ya sembo akosepela mpe akomibomba kati na Yawe; bato nyonso oyo bazali na mitema alima bakomikumisa mpo na yango.
