< Psalms 86 >

1 A prayer for David himself. Incline thy ear, O Lord, and hear me: for I am needy and poor.
Libondeli ya Davidi. Yawe, yoka mpe yanola ngai; pamba te nazali mobola mpe moto akelela.
2 Preserve my soul, for I am holy: save thy servant, O my God, that trusteth in thee.
Batela bomoi na ngai, pamba te nazali moyengebene na Yo. Yo, Nzambe na ngai, bikisa ngai, mosali na Yo, oyo natiaka elikya kati na Yo.
3 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I have cried to thee all the day.
Oh Nkolo, yokela ngai mawa; pamba te nabelelaka Yo tango nyonso!
4 Give joy to the soul of thy servant, for to thee, O Lord, I have lifted up my soul.
Nkolo, sepelisa motema na ngai, mosali na Yo, pamba te natombolaka molimo na ngai epai na Yo.
5 For thou, O Lord, art sweet and mild: and plenteous in mercy to all that call upon thee.
Nkolo, ozali malamu, olimbisaka, otonda na bolingo mpo na bato nyonso oyo babelelaka Yo.
6 Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer: and attend to the voice of my petition.
Yawe, yoka losambo na ngai, yoka libondeli na ngai!
7 I have called upon thee in the day of my trouble: because thou hast heard me.
Na mokolo ya pasi na ngai, nabelelaka Yo, pamba te oyanolaka ngai.
8 There is none among the gods like unto thee, O Lord: and there is none according to thy works.
Nkolo, nzambe moko te ekokani na Yo, kati na banzambe; moko te ekoki kosala makambo oyo Yo osalaka.
9 All the nations thou hast made shall come and adore before thee, O Lord: and they shall glorify thy name.
Nkolo, bikolo nyonso oyo osala ekoya kogumbama liboso na Yo mpe ekoya kopesa Kombo na Yo nkembo.
10 For thou art great and dost wonderful things: thou art God alone.
Pamba te ozali monene mpe osalaka bikamwa; Yo kaka nde ozali Nzambe.
11 Conduct me, O Lord, in thy way, and I will walk in thy truth: let my heart rejoice that it may fear thy name.
Yawe, lakisa ngai nzela na Yo, mpe nakotambola kolanda bosolo na Yo. Pesa ngai motema ya sembo mpo ete natosa Yo.
12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God: with my whole heart, and I will glorify thy name for ever:
Nkolo, Nzambe na ngai, nakosanzola Yo, na motema na ngai mobimba, nakopesa Kombo na Yo nkembo mpo na Yo libela.
13 For thy mercy is great towards me: and thou hast delivered my soul out of the lower hell. (Sheol h7585)
Pamba te bolingo na Yo mpo na ngai ezali monene, mpe okangolaki ngai wuta na mozindo ya mboka ya bakufi. (Sheol h7585)
14 O God, the wicked are risen up against me, and the assembly of the mighty have sought my soul: and they have not set thee before their eyes.
Nzambe, bato ya lofundu bazali kobundisa ngai, mpe ngulupa ya bato na kanza bazali koluka koboma ngai; batosaka Yo ata moke te.
15 And thou, O Lord, art a God of compassion, and merciful, patient, and of much mercy, and true.
Kasi Yo Nkolo, ozali Nzambe na mawa mpe na ngolu, osilikaka noki te, otonda na bolingo mpe na boyengebene.
16 O look upon me, and have mercy on me: give thy command to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
Balola elongi na Yo epai na ngai mpe yokela ngai mawa; pesa ngai, mosali na Yo, makasi mpe bikisa ngai mwana ya mwasi mosali na Yo!
17 Shew me a token for good: that they who hate me may see, and be confounded, because thou, O Lord, hast helped me and hast comforted me.
Salela ngai elembo ya boboto na Yo mpo ete banguna na ngai bamona yango mpe bakufa soni! Yawe, ozali Mosungi mpe Mobondi na ngai.
