< Psalms 84 >
1 For the music director. A psalm of the descendants of Korah. On the gittith. How wonderful is the place where you live, Lord Almighty!
Nkunga wu bana ba Kole kuidi pfumu minyimbidi; bayimbidila mu ngitale yi basi Ngati. A phila lueki luidi mu buangu kiaku kioki weti vuanda! A Nzambi, nkua ngolo yoso.
2 I long, I ache, to be in the courts of the Lord. My mind and my body sing for joy to the living God.
Muelꞌama phuila widi ayi wulembo suki-suki mu diambu di luphangu lu Yave. Ntimꞌama ayi nsuni ama bilembo yamikina mu diambu di Nzambi yi moyo.
3 Even a sparrow finds a home there, and a swallow builds a nest for herself where she can raise her chicks near to your altars, Lord Almighty, my king and my God.
Ka diambu ko dikuanga beki nzoꞌandi, ayi tsiodila mamvandi beki dianza diandi koko keti lundila bana bandi… buangu kifikimini ntalꞌaku A Yave nkua ngolo yoso, Ntinu ama ayi Nzambi ama!
4 How happy are those who live in your house—they are always praising you! (Selah)
Lusakumunu kuidi bobo beti vuanda mu Nzo aku! Beti kuzitisa mu zithangu zioso.
5 How happy are those whose strength is in you, those who are determined to make a pilgrimage.
Lusakumunu kuidi batu bobo zingolo ziawu zidi mu ngeyo; bobo bakubika mintima miawu mu kuenda sambila ku Yelusalemi.
6 As they walk through the Valley of Tears it becomes a spring of water; autumn rains cover it with pools.
Bu bamviokanga mu ndimba wu Baka, buna beti kuwukitula buangu ki zitho zi minlangu; mvula mamvandi wufukidila wawu mu bibuindi.
7 They go from strength to strength, and each one will appear before God in Jerusalem.
Zingolo ziawu zieti buelama nate kadika mutu kammonika va ntuala Nzambi yi sioni.
8 Lord God Almighty, please hear my prayer; please listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)
Wa lusambulu luama, a Yave, Nzambi nkua ngolo yoso, wundimba Nzambi yi Yakobi.
9 Please God, look at our defender, look at the face of your anointed one.
Tala nkaku eto, a Nzambi Tadila mu nlemvo mutu aku wuvinda mafuta.
10 One day in your courts is better than a thousand anywhere else. I'd rather stand as a doorkeeper in the house of my God than live comfortably in the homes of the wicked.
Lumbu kimosi mu luphangu luaku kiviokidi mili di bilumbu kunkaka. Thidi kuama ba nsungi wu muelo mu nzo yi Nzambi ama ayi mu vuandanga mu zinzo zi ngoto zi batu bambimbi.
11 For the Lord God is our sun and shield, and he gives us grace and honor. The Lord doesn't hold back anything good from those who do right.
Bila Yave Nzambi niandi thangu ayi nkaku, Yave wela vana nlemvo ayi nzitusu, kadi kima kimosi kimboti kalendi yimina ko bobo bandiatilanga mu kambu tsembolo.
12 Lord Almighty, how happy are those who trust in you.
A Yave nkua ngolo yoso! Lusakumunu kuidi mutu wowo weti tula diana diandi mu ngeyo!
