Psalms 125

1 A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, for it is unshakeable and endures forever.

Nzembo ya mobembo mpo na kokende na Ndako ya Yawe. Bato oyo batiaka elikya kati na Yawe bazali lokola ngomba Siona oyo eninganaka te, oyo epikama mpo na libela.

2 In the same way that the mountains surround Jerusalem, the Lord surrounds his people, now and forever.

Ndenge bangomba ezingeli Yelusalemi, ndenge wana mpe Yawe azingeli bato na Ye, kobanda sik’oyo kino libela na libela.

3 The wicked will not always rule over the land of the faithful, otherwise the faithful might also end up doing wrong.

Bokonzi ya mabe ekowumela te na etuka ya bato ya sembo, mpo ete basangana te na mabe.

4 Lord, please do good to those who do good, those who sincerely do what is right.

Yawe, zala malamu mpo na bato malamu mpe mpo na bato oyo bazali alima na mitema!

5 But as for those who turn aside to follow their own crooked ways—those the Lord will lead them away together with those who do evil. May Israel be at peace!

Kasi tika ete Yawe abengana bato ya kilikili elongo na bato ya misala mabe! Tika ete kimia ezala na Isalaele!
