Psalms 55
1 To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments: an instruction. Of David. Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki na lindanda. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe, yoka libondeli na ngai, komibomba te wana nazali kobelela Yo.
2 Attend unto me, and answer me: I wander about in my plaint, and I moan aloud,
Yoka ngai mpe yanola ngai. Kati na kolela na ngai, nakomi koyengayenga mpe nazangi kimia,
3 Because of the voice of the enemy; because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in anger they persecute me.
mpo na maloba ya monguna na ngai mpe kanda ya moto mabe, pamba te bazali kokweyisela ngai misala mabe mpe konyokola ngai na kanda.
4 My heart is writhing within me, and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
Motema na ngai etondi na mawa, mpe somo ya kufa ekangi ngai.
5 Fear and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
Nakomi kobanga mpe kolenga, somo monene ekangi ngai.
6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away, and be at rest;
Nakomi komilobela: « Soki nazalaki ata na mapapu ya ebenga, nalingaki kopumbwa mpo na koluka bopemi;
7 Behold, I would flee afar off, I would lodge in the wilderness; (Selah)
nalingaki kokima mosika penza, mpo na kokende kovanda ata na esobe.
8 I would hasten my escape from the stormy wind, from the tempest.
Solo, na lombangu penza, nalingaki kokende koluka ebombamelo mpo na kokima mopepe makasi mpe ekumbaki. »
9 Swallow [them] up, Lord; divide their tongue: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
Nkolo, bebisa mabongisi ya banguna na ngai mpe kotisa mobulu kati na bango; pamba te, kati na engumba, nazali komona mobulu mpe bokabwani.
10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof; and iniquity and mischief are in the midst of it.
Butu mpe moyi, ezali kotambola na bamir na yango; misala mabe mpe ya kanza etondi kati na yango.
11 Perversities are in the midst thereof; and oppression and deceit depart not from its streets.
Banguya oyo ebebisaka ezali kosala kati na yango, minyoko mpe lokuta ezali kosila te.
12 For it is not an enemy that hath reproached me — then could I have borne it; neither is it he that hateth me that hath magnified [himself] against me — then would I have hidden myself from him;
Soki monguna nde azalaki kofinga ngai, nalingaki kokanga motema; soki ezalaki mpe moyini nde azalaki kotelemela ngai, nalingaki komibomba mpo ete amona ngai te.
13 But it was thou, a man mine equal, mine intimate, my familiar friend. ...
Kasi ezali yo, moto lokola ngai, oyo otambolaka elongo na ngai, molingami mpe moninga na ngai ya motema
14 We who held sweet intercourse together. To the house of God we walked amid the throng.
oyo nazalaki kokabola elongo na yo, pasi mpe basekele tango tozalaki kokende nzela moko na Tempelo ya Nzambe.
15 Let death seize upon them, let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is in their dwellings, in their midst. (Sheol h7585)
Tika ete kufa ekanga bango na mbalakata mpe bakita ya bomoi kati na mboka ya bakufi; pamba te mabe etondi kati na bandako mpe mitema na bango. (Sheol h7585)
16 As for me, unto God will I call; and Jehovah will save me.
Mpo na ngai, nabelelaka Nzambe, mpe Yawe akobikisa ngai.
17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray and moan aloud; and he will hear my voice.
Tongo, midi, pokwa, nasopaka motema na ngai mpe nalelaka, mpe ayokaka mongongo na ngai.
18 He hath redeemed my soul in peace from the battle against me: for there were many about me.
Akopesa ngai kimia, akokangola ngai na bitumba oyo babundisaka ngai; pamba te bato oyo batelemeli ngai bazali ebele.
19 God will hear, and afflict them: he that is seated of old, (Selah) ...because there is no change in them, and they fear not God.
Nzambe ayokaka, akosambwisa bango penza; akonzaka mpo na libela na libela. Babongolaka mitema te mpe batosaka Nzambe te.
20 He hath put forth his hands against such as are at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant.
Abundisi balingami na ye, abebisi boyokani na ye.
21 Smooth were the milky [words] of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet are they drawn swords.
Maloba ya monoko na ye ezalaka sukali, nzokande bitumba evandi kati na motema na ye; maloba na ye ezalaka ya kimia koleka mafuta, nzokande ezali mopanga oyo ezangi ebombelo.
22 Cast thy burden upon Jehovah, and he will sustain thee: he will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
Bwakela Yawe mokumba na yo, akosunga yo; akotika te ete moto ya sembo akweya mpo na libela.
23 And thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days. But as for me, I will confide in thee.
Mpe Yo, Nzambe, okobwaka basopi makila mpe bakosi kati na libulu ya libebi; bakokokisa ata kati-kati te ya mikolo ya bomoi na bango. Kasi ngai, natiaka elikya na ngai kati na Yo.
