Psalms 138

1 [A Psalm] of David. I will give thee thanks with my whole heart; before the gods will I sing psalms of thee.

Nzembo ya Davidi. Nasanzolaka Yo na motema na ngai mobimba; nayembelaka Yo banzembo liboso ya banzambe.

2 I will bow down toward the temple of thy holiness, and celebrate thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth; for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

Nagumbamaka na kotala na ngambo ya Tempelo na Yo ya Bule mpe nasanzolaka Kombo na Yo mpo na bolingo mpe boyengebene na Yo, pamba te osalaki ete Kombo na Yo ekende sango na nzela ya kokokisama ya bilaka na Yo.

3 In the day when I called thou answeredst me; thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

Na mokolo oyo nabelelaki Yo, oyanolaki ngai, otondisaki ngai na mpiko mpe na makasi.

4 All the kings of the earth shall celebrate thee, Jehovah, when they have heard the words of thy mouth;

Yawe, bakonzi nyonso ya mabele bakokumisa Yo tango bakoyoka maloba kobima na monoko na Yo;

5 And they shall sing in the ways of Jehovah, for great is the glory of Jehovah.

bakoyemba na tina na banzela ya Yawe, pamba te nkembo na Yawe ezali monene.

6 For Jehovah is high; but he looketh upon the lowly, and the proud he knoweth afar off.

Atako Yawe atombwama, atalaka bato oyo bamikitisa mpe amonaka na mosika bato ya lolendo.

7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou wilt stretch forth thy hand against the anger of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

Tango pasi ekweyelaka ngai, obatelaka bomoi na ngai, osembolaka loboko na Yo mpo na kotelemela kanda ya banguna na ngai; mpe loboko na Yo ya mobali ebikisaka ngai.

8 Jehovah will perfect what concerneth me: thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; forsake not the works of thine own hands.

Yawe akokisaka makambo nyonso mpo na bolamu na ngai. Yawe, bolingo na Yo ewumelaka seko na seko! Kosundola te bato oyo osala na maboko na Yo!
