Psalms 146

1 Hallelujah. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

Bokumisa Yawe! Oh molimo na ngai, kumisa Yawe!

2 I will praise the LORD while I live; I will sing praises unto my God while I have my being.

Nakokumisa Yawe bomoi na ngai mobimba, nakosanzola Nzambe na ngai tango nyonso nakozala na bomoi.

3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

Botia elikya te na bakambi to na bato oyo bazangi makoki ya kobikisa.

4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his dust; in that very day his thoughts perish.

Soki bakufi, bazongaka na mabele, mpe, mbala moko, mabongisi na bango elimwaka.

5 Happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,

Esengo na moto oyo Nzambe ya Jakobi azali mosungi na ye, oyo atiaka elikya na ye kati na Yawe, Nzambe na ye!

6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is; who keepeth truth for ever;

Yawe akelaki Likolo mpe mabele, ebale monene mpe nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango; azali sembo seko na seko.

7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed; who giveth bread to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners;

Yawe akataka na sembo makambo ya banyokolami mpe apesaka bilei na bato oyo bazali na nzala; abimisaka bakangami na boloko.

8 The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind; the LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down; the LORD loveth the righteous;

Yawe abikisaka miso ya bakufi miso; Yawe asembolaka bato oyo bazali ya kogumbama; Yawe alingaka bato ya sembo.

9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; He upholdeth the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked He maketh crooked.

Yawe abatelaka bapaya, asungaka mwana etike mpe mwasi oyo akufisa mobali, kasi abebisaka banzela ya bato mabe.

10 The LORD will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelujah.

Yawe azali Mokonzi seko na seko; Nzambe na yo, oh Siona, libela na libela! Bokumisa Yawe!
