Psalms 50
1 A Psalm of Asaph. God, God, the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
Nzembo ya Azafi. Nzambe ya banzambe, Yawe alobi, abengi mokili wuta na epai moyi ebimaka kino na epai elalaka.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined forth.
Wuta na Siona, mboka kitoko, Nzambe azali kongenga lokola moyi.
3 Our God cometh, and doth not keep silence; a fire devoureth before Him, and round about Him it stormeth mightily.
Tika ete Nzambe na biso aya! Tika ete akanga monoko te! Liboso na Ye, moto makasi ezali kozikisa; mpe zingazinga na Ye, mopepe makasi ezali kopepa.
4 He calleth to the heavens above, and to the earth, that He may judge His people:
Abengi Likolo, kuna na likolo, mpe mabele mpo na kokata makambo ya bato na Ye.
5 'Gather My saints together unto Me; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.'
Alobi: « Bosangisela ngai bayengebene na ngai, ba-oyo basalaki Boyokani elongo na ngai na nzela ya mbeka. »
6 And the heavens declare His righteousness; for God, He is judge. (Selah)
Likolo ekopanza sango ya bosembo na Ye, pamba te azali Nzambe ya bosembo.
7 'Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: God, thy God, am I.
Bino bato na ngai, boyoka; nazali koloba na bino! Isalaele, nakoloba mpo na kotelemela yo: « Ngai Nzambe, nazali Nzambe na yo. »
8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices; and thy burnt-offerings are continually before Me.
Nakopamela yo te na tina na bambeka na yo, pamba te bambeka na yo ya kotumba ezalaka tango nyonso liboso na ngai.
9 I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he-goats out of thy folds.
Nakozwa ngombe te kati na ndako na yo to ntaba mobali kati na etonga na yo ya bibwele,
10 For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
pamba te banyama nyonso ya zamba ezali ya ngai; ezala ata ebele ya banyama oyo ezali kati na bangomba, nyonso ezali ya ngai.
11 I know all the fowls of the mountains; and the wild beasts of the field are Mine.
Nayebi bandeke nyonso ya bangomba; mpe banyama ya bilanga ezali ya ngai.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; for the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof.
Soki nazalaki na nzala, nalingaki koyebisa yo te, pamba te mokili mpe nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango ezali ya ngai.
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
Boni, okanisi penza ete ngai naliaka misuni ya bangombe to namelaka makila ya bantaba?
14 Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High;
Bonzelaka Nzambe matondi lokola mbeka, mpe kokisaka bandayi na yo epai ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo.
15 And call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt honour Me.'
Mpe belela ngai na tango ya pasi; nakokangola yo, mpe okopesa ngai nkembo.
16 But unto the wicked God saith: 'What hast thou to do to declare My statutes, and that thou hast taken My covenant in thy mouth?
Nzambe alobi na moto mabe: « Mpo na nini opanzaka sango ya mibeko na ngai mpe olobaka na tina na Boyokani na ngai?
17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest My words behind thee.
Nzokande oyinaka malako na ngai mpe oyokaka te maloba na ngai?
18 When thou sawest a thief, thou hadst company with him, and with adulterers was thy portion.
Soki omoni moyibi, wana nde osepeli; mpe ovandaka esika moko na bato na bikobo.
19 Thou hast let loose thy mouth for evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
Otikaka monoko na yo kosala mabe, lolemo na yo ebimisaka kaka lokuta.
20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.
Ovandaka mpo na kotonga ndeko na yo, mpe obebisaka lokumu ya bana ya mama na yo.
21 These things hast thou done, and should I have kept silence? Thou hadst thought that I was altogether such a one as thyself; but I will reprove thee, and set the cause before thine eyes.
Yango nde makambo oyo ozalaki kosala; mpe ngai nabatelaki kimia. Okanisi penza ete ngai nazali lokola yo? Nakopamela yo mpe nakotanda makambo nyonso oyo nazwa yo na miso na yo.
22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
Bino bato oyo bozali kobosana Nzambe, nabondeli bino: bososola makambo oyo; noki te nakobebisa bino, mpe moto moko te akokangola bino.
23 Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
Moto oyo abonzaka matondi lokola mbeka, apesaka ngai lokumu; mpe moto oyo asalaka keba na etamboli na ye, nakotalisa ye lobiko ya Nzambe. »
