< Psalms 118 >
1 'O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.'
Bosanzola Yawe, pamba te azali malamu, pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!
2 So let Israel now say, for His mercy endureth for ever,
Tika ete Isalaele aloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
3 So let the house of Aaron now say, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Tika ete bakitani ya Aron baloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
4 So let them now that fear the LORD say, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Tika ete bato oyo batosaka Yawe baloba: « Pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
5 Out of my straits I called upon the LORD; He answered me with great enlargement.
Kati na pasi na ngai, nabelelaki Yawe, mpe Yawe ayanolaki ngai, abikisaki ngai.
6 The LORD is for me; I will not fear; what can man do unto me?
Yawe azali mpo na ngai, nakobanga te; bato bakoki kosala ngai nini?
7 The LORD is for me as my helper; and I shall gaze upon them that hate me.
Yawe azali mpo na ngai, ayaka kosunga ngai; boye natalaka banguna na ngai na miso lokola molongi.
8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.
Eleki malamu koluka ebombamelo kati na Yawe na esika ya kotia elikya na bato.
9 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.
Eleki malamu koluka ebombamelo kati na Yawe na esika ya kotia elikya kati na bato minene ya mokili.
10 All nations compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.
Bikolo nyonso ezingelaki ngai, kasi nabebisaki bango na Kombo na Yawe.
11 They compass me about, yea, they compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.
Bakobaki kaka kozingela ngai, kasi nabebisaki bango na Kombo na Yawe.
12 They compass me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.
Bazingelaki ngai lokola banzoyi, kasi ekufaki lokola moto ya esobe; nabebisaki yango na Kombo na Yawe.
13 Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; but the LORD helped me.
Batindikaki ngai mpo ete nakweyisa kondima, kasi Yawe asungaki ngai.
14 The LORD is my strength and song; and He is become my salvation.
Yawe azali makasi mpe nguya na ngai; apesaki ngai elonga.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
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 right hand of the LORD is exalted; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
Yawe asembolaka loboko na Ye ya mobali, mpe nguya na Yawe esalaka makambo minene.
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
Nakokufa te, nakozala na bomoi mpe nakopanza sango ya misala ya Yawe.
18 The LORD hath chastened me sore; but He hath not given me over unto death.
Solo, Yawe apesaki ngai etumbu makasi; kasi akabaki ngai na kufa te.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the LORD.
Bofungolela ngai bikuke ya bosembo mpo ete nakota mpe nakumisa Yawe.
20 This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter into it.
Tala ekuke ya Yawe; bato ya sembo bakotelaka na ekuke yango.
21 I will give thanks unto Thee, for Thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation.
Nasanzolaka Yo, pamba te oyanolaki ngai mpe opesaki ngai elonga.
22 The stone which the builders rejected is become the chief corner-stone.
Libanga oyo batongi ndako babwakaki ekomi libanga ya songe ya ndako, mpe esimbi ndako mobimba.
23 This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
Ezali Yawe nde alingaki bongo, mpe ezali penza likambo ya kokamwa na miso na biso!
24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Tala mokolo oyo Yawe asali; tika ete tosepela mpe toganga na esengo mpo na mokolo yango!
25 We beseech Thee, O LORD, save now! We beseech Thee, O LORD, make us now to prosper!
Yawe, nabondeli Yo, pesa lobiko. Yawe, nabondeli Yo, pesa elonga.
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD; we bless you out of 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 hath given us light; order the festival procession with boughs, even unto the horns of the altar.
Yawe azali Nzambe, mpe angengisaki biso. Bokota na molongo, bomema mandalala na maboko mpe bokende kino na maseke ya etumbelo.
28 Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto Thee; Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee.
Ozali Nzambe na ngai, nasanzolaka Yo! Ozali Nzambe na ngai, nanetolaka Yo.
29 O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Bosanzola Yawe, pamba te azali malamu, pamba te bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!
