Psalms 141
1 I have cried to the, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee.
Nkunga Davidi. A Yave, ngeyo nditela; yiza nsualu kuidi minu. Wa mbemboꞌama mu thangu ndilembo kutedi.
2 Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice.
Bika lusambulu luama luba va ntualꞌaku banga ansa bika mvumbudulu yi mioko miama yiba banga dikaba di masika.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips.
Tula nsungi va munu ama, a Yave; keba bumboti muelo wu bididi biama.
4 Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins. With men that work iniquity: and I will not communicate with the choicest of them.
Kadi yinika ntimꞌama ku mambimbi, mu baka kuku mu mavanga mambimbi va kimosi ayi bamvanganga mambimbi; kadi tala ti ndidia bidia biawu bidi lueki.
5 The just shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head. For my prayer also shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased:
Bika mutu wusonga kambeta, diodi didi dimboti; bika kathemina, diodi didi mafuta va ntuꞌama; ayi ntuꞌama wulendi manga mawu ko. Muaki lusambulu luama luela nuanisanga mu zithangu zioso mavanga ma batu bamvanganga mambimbi.
6 Their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up. They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed:
Minyadi miawu miela lozo ku tsi tona ku yilu ngumbu ayi batu bambimbi bela longuka ti mambu mama ndituba, matubu bumboti.
7 As when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground: Our bones are scattered by the side of hell. (Sheol h7585)
Bela tuba: “mutu bu keti kabila ntoto ayi vasila ntoto buawu bobo mimvesi mieto mididi misasakana va muelo tsi bafua”. (Sheol h7585)
8 But o to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul.
Vayi meso mama madi kaka kuidi ngeyo Yave, mutu wumvanganga makazodidi Kuidi ngeyo ndintombila suamunu, kadi kundiekula mu lufua.
9 Keep me from the snare, which they have laid for me, and from the stumblingblocks of them that work iniquity.
Wukheba mu makondi bathambila ayi mu mintambu mitula batu bamvanganga mambimbi.
10 The wicked shall fall in his net: I am alone until I pass.
Bika batu bambimbi, babua mu makondi mawu veka vayi minu ndiviokila vawu mu luvovomo.
