Psalms 19
1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the expanse sheweth the work of his hands.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi. Likolo etatolaka nkembo ya Nzambe, mapata elobaka misala na Ye.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
Mokolo moko na moko eyebisaka yango epai ya mokolo oyo elandaka, mpe butu moko na moko eyebisaka yango epai ya butu oyo elandaka.
3 There is no speech and there are no words, yet their voice is heard.
Ezali na nzela ya lisolo te, na nzela mpe ya maloba te oyo mingongo na yango eyokanaka te.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their language to the extremity of the world. In them hath he set a tent for the sun,
Nzokande, sango na yango eyokanaka na mokili mobimba, maloba na yango ekomaka kino na suka ya mokili. Na likolo, Nzambe atie ndako ya kapo mpo na moyi.
5 And he is as a bridegroom going forth from his chamber; he rejoiceth as a strong man to run the race.
Moyi yango ebimaka na tongo ndenge elenge mobali oyo abali sika abimaka na shambre na ye, mpe ndenge elombe atambolaka na elikya ya kolonga na momekano.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heavens, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
Moyi ebimaka wuta na songe moko ya likolo, mpe esukisaka mobembo na yango na songe mosusu; eloko moko te ezangaka kozwa molunge na yango.
7 The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple;
Mibeko ya Yawe ezali ya kokoka, epesaka biso lisusu nguya ya kozala na bomoi. Maloba na Ye nyonso ezali ya solo, ebongi na kotiela yango elikya, mpe epesaka bwanya epai ya zoba.
8 The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes;
Mitindo ya Yawe ezali alima, esepelisaka motema; malako na Ye ezali peto, epesaka bososoli.
9 The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring for ever; the judgments of Jehovah are truth, they are righteous altogether:
Kotosa Yawe ezali peto, ewumelaka libela na libela. Mitindo ya Yawe ezali ya solo, nyonso ezali penza sembo.
10 They are more precious than gold, yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey and the dropping of the honeycomb.
Ezali na motuya koleka wolo, koleka wolo ebele ya peto, wolo oyo basangisa na eloko mosusu te; eleki mafuta ya nzoyi na elengi, mafuta ya nzoyi oyo ezali kobima sika.
11 Moreover, by them is thy servant enlightened; in keeping them there is great reward.
Epesaka mosali na Yo mayele; moto nyonso oyo atosaka yango azwaka litomba mingi.
12 Who understandeth [his] errors? Purify me from secret [faults].
Nani akoki kososola mabunga na ye oyo asali na nko te? Limbisa masumu na ngai, oyo nayebi te!
13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous [sins]; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be perfect, and I shall be innocent from great transgression.
Batela lisusu mosali na Yo mpo ete nasala mabe na nko te. Na bongo, nakozala moto ya kokoka mpe nakosala bambeba minene te.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer.
Yawe, Libanga na ngai mpe Mosikoli na ngai, tika ete maloba mpe makanisi ya motema na ngai esepelisa Yo!
