< Psalms 108 >
1 A song or Psalme of David. O God, mine heart is prepared, so is my tongue: I will sing and giue praise.
Nzembo ya Davidi. Nzambe, motema na ngai ezali na kimia! Nakoyembela Yo, nakosanzola Yo na mindule; ezali mpe lokumu na ngai.
2 Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.
Lindanda mpe nzenze, bolamuka! Nalingi kolamusa tongo.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee among the nations.
Nkolo, nakosanzola Yo kati na bato, nakoyembela Yo kati na bikolo.
4 For thy mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds.
Pamba te bolingo na Yo ezali monene koleka Lola, mpe bosembo na Yo ekenda kino na mapata.
5 Exalt thy self, O God, aboue the heauens, and let thy glorie be vpon all the earth,
Oh Nzambe, tika ete otombolama na likolo ya Lola, mpe nkembo na Yo ezala awa na mokili mobimba!
6 That thy beloued may be deliuered: helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
Bikisa biso na nguya ya loboko na Yo mpe yanola biso, mpo ete balingami na Yo bakangolama!
7 God hath spoken in his holinesse: therefore I will reioyce, I shall deuide Shechem and measure the valley of Succoth.
Nzambe alobaki kati na Esika na Ye ya bule: « Nakolonga! Nakokabola Sishemi mpe nakotia bandelo ya lubwaku ya Sukoti.
8 Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iuda is my lawgiuer.
Galadi ezali ya ngai, Manase mpe ezali ya ngai; Efrayimi ezali ekoti na ngai ya ebende, mpe Yuda ezali lingenda na ngai ya bokonzi.
9 Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.
Moabi ezali sani monene oyo nasukolelaka, Edomi ezali esika oyo nabwakaka sandale na ngai. Nazali kobeta milolo ya bitumba mpo na kobundisa mokili ya Filisitia. »
10 Who will leade mee into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
Nani akomema ngai na engumba batonga makasi? Nani akotambolisa ngai kino na Edomi?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, which haddest forsaken vs, and diddest not goe foorth, O God, with our armies?
Ezali Yo te, Nzambe oyo obwakaki biso, Nzambe oyo ozalaki lisusu te kokende bitumba elongo na mampinga na biso!
12 Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
Yaka kosunga biso, kangola biso liboso ya moyini! Pamba te lisungi ya bato ezali pamba.
13 Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
Elongo na Nzambe, tokosala makambo minene mpe ya kokamwa; ezali Ye nde akonyata banguna na biso.
