Psalms 60
1 For the music director. According to “Lily of the Testimony.” A psalm (miktam) of David, useful for teaching, about the time he fought against Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and then Joab returned and killed 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. You, God, have rejected us! You have broken us; you have been angry with us; but now you have to welcome us back!
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki ndenge moko na « Lisi ya litatoli. » Nzembo ya Davidi mpo na koteya bato. Ayembaki yango tango abundisaki bato ya Siri ya Mezopotami mpe bato ya Siri ya Tsoba, mpe tango Joabi azongaki, sima na ye kolonga bato nkoto zomi na mibale ya Edomi, na bitumba kati na Lubwaku ya Mungwa. Oh Nzambe, obwakaki mpe opanzaki biso, osilikaki penza. Sik’oyo, zongisa biso.
2 You have sent earthquakes on our land and split it apart. Now heal the cracks, for the land is still having tremors.
Solo, oningisaki mabele mpe obukaki yango. Bamba madusu na yango, pamba te ekomi koningana.
3 You have been very hard on your people; you gave us wine that made us stagger around.
Omonisaki bato na Yo pasi makasi, omelisaki biso vino oyo elangwisaka.
4 But you have given those who respect you the banner of truth to unfurl and rally around. (Selah)
Opesaki na bato oyo batosaka Yo bendele mpo na koyebisa bango ete bakima liboso ya batolotolo ya banguna.
5 Rescue those you love! Answer us, and save us by your power!
Mpo ete balingami na Yo bakangolama, bikisa na nguya ya loboko na Yo ya mobali, mpe yanola biso! Yanola ngai!
6 God has spoken from his Temple: “Triumphantly I divide up Shechem, and portion out the Valley of Succoth.
Nzambe alobaki kati na Esika na Ye ya bule: « Nakolonga! Nakokabola Sishemi mpe nakomeka molayi ya lubwaku ya Sukoti.
7 Both Gilead and Manasseh belong to me. Ephraim is my helmet, and Judah is my scepter.
Galadi ezali ya ngai, Manase mpe ezali ya ngai; Efrayimi ezali ekoti na ngai ya ebende, mpe Yuda ezali lingenda na ngai ya bokonzi.
8 I will treat Moab as my washbasin; I will place my sandal on Edom; I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”
Moabi ezali sani monene oyo nasukolelaka, Edomi ezali esika oyo nabwakaka sandale na ngai. Mpo na Filisitia, nabetaka milolo ya elonga. »
9 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me into Edom?
Nani akomema ngai kino na engumba oyo batonga makasi? Nani akotambolisa ngai kino na Edomi?
10 Have you rejected us, God? Won't you lead our armies?
Ezali Yo te, Nzambe oyo obwakaki biso, Nzambe oyo ozalaki lisusu te kokende bitumba elongo na mampinga na biso?
11 Please give us help against our enemies, for human help is worthless.
Yaka kosunga biso, kangola biso liboso ya moyini; pamba te lisungi ya bato ezali pamba.
12 Our strength is in God, and he will crush our enemies.
Nzokande, elongo na Nzambe, tokosala makambo minene mpe ya kokamwa; ezali Ye nde akonyata banguna na biso.
