Psalms 104
1 Bless Jehovah, O my soul! Jehovah my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with majesty and splendour;
Eh molimo na ngai, pambola Yawe! Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, ozali monene! Olata kongenga mpe lokumu,
2 Covering thyself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens like a tent-curtain; —
omifinika moyi lokola kazaka, otanda likolo lokola ndako ya kapo.
3 Who layeth the beams of his upper chambers in the waters, who maketh clouds his chariot, who walketh upon the wings of the wind;
Opika makonzi na yango na mayi ya likolo, okomisaka mapata shar na Yo, otambolaka na mapapu ya mopepe.
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flame of fire.
Okomisaka bantoma na Yo mipepe, mpe basali na Yo, ndemo ya moto.
5 He laid the earth upon its foundations: it shall not be removed for ever.
Otia mokili na likolo ya miboko na yango mpo ete eningana te seko na seko.
6 Thou hadst covered it with the deep, as with a vesture; the waters stood above the mountains:
Ozipa yango na mayi monene lokola elamba; mayi ezalaki kovanda na likolo ya bangomba.
7 At thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away; —
Kasi na pamela na Yo, mayi ekimaki; na lokito ya kake na Yo, mayi etiolaki,
8 The mountains rose, the valleys sank, unto the place which thou hadst founded for them; —
emataki na likolo ya bangomba, ekitaki na mabwaku, na bisika oyo obongisaki mpo na yango.
9 Thou hast set a bound which they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.
Otiaki mondelo oyo ekoki koleka te; ekozonga lisusu te kozipa mokili.
10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys: they run among the mountains;
Obimisaka mayi ya bitima mpo na kosopa yango na mayi minene oyo elekaka na kati-kati ya bangomba;
11 They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild asses quench their thirst.
ekomaka mayi ya komela mpo na banyama nyonso ya bilanga mpe mpo na ba-ane ya zamba.
12 The birds of heaven dwell by them; they give forth their voice from among the branches.
Bandeke ya likolo evandaka pembeni ya mayi yango mpe eyembaka kati na makasa.
13 He watereth the mountains from his upper-chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
Wuta na bandako na Yo ya likolo, onokisaka mvula na likolo ya bangomba; mokili etondi na mbuma ya misala na Yo.
14 He maketh the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man; bringing forth bread out of the earth,
Matiti ebotaka mpo na bibwele, mpe milona ya bato ekolaka mpo ete mabele ebotela bango bilei,
15 And wine which gladdeneth the heart of man; making [his] face shine with oil; and with bread he strengtheneth man's heart.
vino mpo na kosepelisa mitema na bango, mafuta mpo na kongengisa bilongi na bango, mpe mapa mpo na kolendisa mitema na bango.
16 The trees of Jehovah are satisfied, the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted,
Banzete ya Yawe etondi na mayi; ndenge wana nde ezali, banzete ya sedele ya Libani, oyo Yawe alona.
17 Where the birds make their nests; [as for] the stork, the fir trees are her house.
Bandeke esalaka bazala na yango kuna, mpe nkoko evandaka na banzete ya sipele.
18 The high mountains are for the wild goats; the cliffs, a refuge for the rock-badgers.
Bangomba milayi ezali ekimelo mpo na bantaba ya zamba, mpe madusu ya mabanga ezali bibombamelo mpo na bampanya ya zamba.
19 He made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth its going down.
Osala sanza mpo na koyeba mikolo ya bafeti. Moyi eyebi tango na yango ya kolala.
20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night, wherein all the beasts of the forest creep forth:
Otindaka molili, mpe butu ekomaka. Bongo banyama nyonso ya zamba ekomaka kotambola-tambola.
21 The young lions roar after the prey, and to seek their food from God.
Bana ya nkosi egangaka sima na nyama mpe esengaka bilei epai ya Nzambe.
22 The sun ariseth, they retreat, and lay them down in their dens.
Soki moyi ebimi, nkosi elongwaka, ezongaka mpo na kolala na bisika na yango;
23 Man goeth forth unto his work, and to his labour until the evening.
kasi moto abimaka mpo na kokende na mosala na ye mpe asalaka kino na pokwa.
24 How manifold are thy works, O Jehovah! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.
Oh Yawe, misala na Yo ezali ebele! Osalaki nyonso na bwanya; mokili etondi na biloko oyo okela.
25 Yonder is the great and wide sea: therein are moving things innumerable, living creatures small and great.
Tala ndenge ebale monene ezali molayi mpe epanzana, etonda na banyama oyo tokoki kotanga te, kobanda na oyo eleki mike kino na oyo eleki minene.
26 There go the ships; [there] that leviathan, which thou hast formed to play therein.
Kuna, bamasuwa ekendeke mpe ezongaka; bongo Leviatani oyo osala mpo ete esakanaka kuna.
27 These all look unto thee, that thou mayest give their food in its season:
Nyonso etalelaka Yo mpo ete opesa yango bilei na tango oyo ekoki.
28 That thou givest unto them, they gather; thou openest thy hand, they are filled with good.
Opesaka bilei, mpe ezwaka yango; ofungolelaka yango loboko na Yo, mpe etondaka na biloko.
29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled; thou takest away their breath, they expire and return to their dust.
Tango obombaka elongi na Yo, somo ekangaka yango; tango olongolaka yango pema, ekufaka mpe ezongaka na putulu;
30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created, and thou renewest the face of the earth.
tango otindaka pema Yo, ezwaka bomoi; mpe okomisaka mokili sika.
31 The glory of Jehovah will endure for ever; Jehovah will rejoice in his works.
Tika ete nkembo ya Yawe ewumela libela na libela! Tika ete Yawe asepela na misala na Ye!
32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth; he toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
Soki atali mokili, mokili elengaka; soki asimbi bangomba, ebimisaka milinga.
33 I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live; I will sing psalms to my God while I have my being.
Nakoyembela Yawe bomoi na ngai mobimba; nakoyembela Nzambe na ngai tango nyonso nazali na bomoi.
34 My meditation shall be pleasant unto him; I will rejoice in Jehovah.
Tika ete maloba na ngai esepelisa Ye! Tika ete Yawe azala esengo na ngai!
35 Sinners shall be consumed out of the earth, and the wicked shall be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Hallelujah!
Tika ete bato ya masumu basila na mokili, mpe bato mabe bazala lisusu te! Oh molimo na ngai, pambola Yawe! Aleluya, bokumisa Yawe!
