< Psalms 118 >
1 Thank the Lord, for he is good! His trustworthy love lasts forever.
Bosanzola Yawe, pamba te azali malamu, pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!
2 Let all Israel say, “His trustworthy love lasts forever.”
Tika ete Isalaele aloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
3 Let Aaron's descendants say, “His trustworthy love lasts forever.”
Tika ete bakitani ya Aron baloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
4 Let those who honor the Lord say, “His trustworthy love lasts forever.”
Tika ete bato oyo batosaka Yawe baloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
5 I was suffering badly, so I cried out to the Lord for help. He answered me and set me free from my pain.
Kati na pasi na ngai, nabelelaki Yawe, mpe Yawe ayanolaki ngai, abikisaki ngai.
6 The Lord is with me, so I have nothing to fear. No one can harm me.
Yawe azali mpo na ngai, nakobanga te; bato bakoki kosala ngai nini?
7 The Lord is with me, he will help me. I will see those who hate me defeated.
Yawe azali mpo na ngai, ayaka kosunga ngai; boye natalaka banguna na ngai na miso lokola molongi.
8 It's better to rely on the Lord than to trust in people.
Eleki malamu koluka ebombamelo kati na Yawe na esika ya kotia elikya na bato.
9 It's better to rely on the Lord than to trust in the rich and powerful.
Eleki malamu koluka ebombamelo kati na Yawe na esika ya kotia elikya kati na bato minene ya mokili.
10 Even though all the heathen nations surrounded me, I defeated them with the help of the Lord.
Bikolo nyonso ezingelaki ngai, kasi nabebisaki bango na Kombo na Yawe.
11 They completely surrounded me, but even so I defeated them with the help of the Lord.
Bakobaki kaka kozingela ngai, kasi nabebisaki bango na Kombo na Yawe.
12 Like a swarm of bees they attacked, but their attack died out as quickly as burning thorn twigs. I defeated them with the help of the Lord.
Bazingelaki ngai lokola banzoyi, kasi ekufaki lokola moto ya esobe; nabebisaki yango na Kombo na Yawe.
13 They tried as hard as they could to kill me, but the Lord helped me.
Batindikaki ngai mpo ete nakweyisa kondima, kasi Yawe asungaki ngai.
14 The Lord is my strength, and the one I sing about. He is the one who saves me.
Yawe azali makasi mpe nguya na ngai; apesaki ngai elonga.
15 Songs of celebration and victory come from the tents of the faithful. The Lord's powerful hand has done amazing things!
Koganga ya esengo mpe ya elonga eyokanaka wuta na bandako ya kapo ya bato ya sembo, pamba te nguya na Yawe esalaka makambo minene!
16 The Lord raises his powerful hand in victory! The Lord's powerful hand has done amazing things!
Yawe asembolaka loboko na Ye ya mobali, mpe nguya na Yawe esalaka makambo minene.
17 I'm not going to die. In fact I'm going to live, and let people know what the Lord has done.
Nakokufa te, nakozala na bomoi mpe nakopanza sango ya misala ya Yawe.
18 Even though the Lord punished me severely, he did not let me die.
Solo, Yawe apesaki ngai etumbu makasi; kasi akabaki ngai na kufa te.
19 Open the gates of the faithful for me so I can go in and thank the Lord.
Bofungolela ngai bikuke ya bosembo mpo ete nakota mpe nakumisa Yawe.
20 These are the gates of the Lord where God's faithful people enter.
Tala ekuke ya Yawe; bato ya sembo bakotelaka na ekuke yango.
21 I want to thank you for answering me and for being the one who saves me.
Nasanzolaka Yo, pamba te oyanolaki ngai mpe opesaki ngai elonga.
22 The stone rejected by the builders has turned out to be the chief cornerstone.
Libanga oyo batongi ndako babwakaki ekomi libanga ya songe ya ndako, mpe esimbi ndako mobimba.
23 The Lord has done this, and it looks wonderful to us!
Ezali Yawe nde alingaki bongo, mpe ezali penza likambo ya kokamwa na miso na biso!
24 The Lord made this day happen! We will celebrate and be happy for it!
Tala mokolo oyo Yawe asali; tika ete tosepela mpe toganga na esengo mpo na mokolo yango!
25 Lord, please save us! Lord, please make us successful!
Yawe, nabondeli Yo, pesa lobiko. Yawe, nabondeli Yo, pesa elonga.
26 May the one who comes in the power of the Lord by blessed! We bless you from the house of the Lord!
Tika ete apambolama, Ye oyo ayei na Kombo ya Nkolo! Tozali kopambola bino wuta na Tempelo ya Yawe.
27 The Lord is God, and his goodness shines on us. Branches in hand, start the procession up towards the altar.
Yawe azali Nzambe, mpe angengisaki biso. Bokota na molongo, bomema mandalala na maboko mpe bokende kino na maseke ya etumbelo.
28 You are my God, and I will thank you! You are my God, and I will praise you!
Ozali Nzambe na ngai, nasanzolaka Yo! Ozali Nzambe na ngai, nanetolaka Yo.
29 Thank the Lord, for he is good! His trustworthy love lasts forever!
Bosanzola Yawe, pamba te azali malamu, pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!
