Psalms 8

1 Unto the end. For the oil and wine presses. A Psalm of David. O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is your name throughout all the earth! For your magnificence is elevated above the heavens.

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi; ezali ya koyemba na lindanda ya bato ya Gati. Oh Yawe, Nkolo na biso, Kombo na Yo ezali monene kati na mokili mobimba! Ovandisi nkembo na Yo kati na Lola.

2 Out of the mouths of babes and infants, you have perfected praise, because of your enemies, so that you may destroy the enemy and the revenger.

Na nzela ya masanzoli ya bana mpe bana mike, otelemisi ndako batonga makasi, mpo na kotelemela bayini na Yo mpe kokanga monoko ya monguna mpe ya moto oyo alingaka kozongisa mabe na mabe.

3 For I will behold your heavens, the works of your fingers: the moon and the stars, which you have founded.

Tango natalaka Lola na Yo, mosala ya misapi na Yo, sanza mpe minzoto oyo otia,

4 What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you visit him?

namitunaka: Moto azali nini mpo ete okanisa ye, mpe moto azali nani mpo ete obatela ye?

5 You reduced him to a little less than the Angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor,

Osalaki ye moke koleka ba-anjelu mpe olatisaka ye motole ya nkembo mpe ya lokumu;

6 and you have set him over the works of your hands.

otia ye moyangeli ya misala ya maboko na Yo, otia nyonso na se ya matambe na ye:

7 You have subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen, and in addition: the beasts of the field,

bameme, bantaba, bangombe mpe banyama ya zamba,

8 the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, which pass through the paths of the sea.

bandeke ya likolo, mbisi ya ebale monene mpe nyonso oyo etambolaka na bibale.

9 O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is your name throughout all the earth!

Oh Yawe, Nkolo na biso, Kombo na Yo ezali monene kati na mokili mobimba!
