Psalms 10
1 Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?
Bila mbi ngeyo Yave telimini thama e? Bila mbi wididi wusuama mu thangu ziphasi e?
2 Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise.
Mu lunangu luandi, mutu wumbimbi wulembo landakana mutu wulebakana; bobo babuilamanga mu makani momo kakubikidi.
3 For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed.
Bila mutu wumbimbi wulembo kiniemisa mu nzinunu zi ntima andi; ayi wulembo sakumuna nkua lukokoto, wulembo lenzi Yave.
4 The sinner hath provoked the Lord according to the multitude of his wrath he will not seek him:
Mu luniemo luandi, mutu wumbimbi kantombanga ko. Mu mayindu mandi, Nzambi kasi kadi buangu ko.
5 God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times. Thy judgments are removed from his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies.
Mu zithangu zioso, zinzila ziandi zidi zimboti widi nkua lunangu ayi mina miaku midi mitatuka kuidi niandi; wunsekininanga bambeni bandi zioso.
6 For he hath said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.
Wuniungutanga mu ntimꞌandi: “Kuisi ko diambu dilenda ku ndikuna; Ndidi mu khini mu zithangu zioso ayi ndilendi ba mu phasi ko.”
7 His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.
Munu andi wuwedi tsingulu, luvunu ayi buivi. Ku tsi ludimi luandi kuidi ziphasi ayi mambimbi.
8 He sitteth in ambush with the rich in private places, that he may kill the innocent.
Wumfielanga mu ndambu mala. Wumvondanga mutu kambulu zaba diambu mu bibuangu bisuama, meso mandi manfielanga mu kinsueki bobo katidi vanga mbimbi.
9 His eyes are upon the poor man: He lieth in wait in secret like a lion in his den. He lieth in ambush that he may catch the poor man: to catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.
Wumfielanga banga bumfiedilanga khosi bu kadi mu nsuku wumfielanga mu diambu di buila batu bakambulu lusadusu.
10 In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.
Weti kuba kosikisa, bawu beti tumbu vonga; beti bua ku tsi zingolo ziandi.
11 For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face not to see to the end.
Wuniungutanga mu ntimꞌandi: “Nzambi zimbikini, fukidi zizi kiandi ayi kalendi mona ko.”
12 Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.
A Yave Nzambi, telama, vumuna koko kuaku; kadi zimbakana batu bakambulu lusadusu!
13 Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.
Bila mbi mutu wumbimbi keti lenzila Nzambi e? Bila mbi kalembo niungutina mu ntimꞌandi: “Kalendi tomba ko ti ndimvumbudila kipholo”
14 Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands. To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.
Muaki ngeyo Nzambi, wulembo moni ziphasi ayi mabienga; Wulembo tadi mawu muingi wumatula va koko kuaku. Nkua mabienga wukukiyekulanga kuidi ngeyo; ngeyo nsadisi wu muana sana.
15 Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.
Kelula koko ku mutu wumbimbi ayi ku mutu weti vanga mambimbi, nkambi kavumbudila kipholo mu mambimbi mandi; nate wela kambu buela ku mamona.
16 The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.
Yave niandi ntinu mu zithangu zioso ayi mu thangu yi kayimani Makanda mela bungana mu tsi andi.
17 The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.
A Yave, ngeyo weti wa zitsatu zi batu badi mu phasi. Weti kuba kindisa; ayi dimba yamikina kuawu.
18 To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.
Mu diambu di nuanisa muana sana ayi mutu weti yamusu muingi mutu widi va ntoto kabika monisa tsisi.
