< Psalms 69 >

1 For the Leader; upon Shoshannim. A Psalm of David. Save me, O God; for the waters are come in even unto the soul.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi: ezali ya koyemba lokola « lisi. » Nzambe, bikisa ngai, pamba te mayi ekomi na kingo na ngai.
2 I am sunk in deep mire, where there is no standing; I am come into deep waters, and the flood overwhelmeth me.
Nazali kozinda na potopoto, na mozindo makasi epai wapi eloko ya kosimba ezali te; nakiti na mozindo ya mayi, mbonge ememi ngai.
3 I am weary of my crying; my throat is dried; mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
Nalembi nzoto likolo ya kobelela lisungi; mongongo na ngai ekawuki, miso na ngai elembi mpo na kotalela Nzambe na ngai.
4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would cut me off, being mine enemies wrongfully, are many; should I restore that which I took not away?
Bato oyo bayinaka ngai na kozanga tina bazali ebele koleka motango ya suki ya moto na ngai; ba-oyo balukaka kobebisa bomoi na ngai, oyo bazali banguna na ngai kaka pamba, bazali bato na nguya; bazali kosenga ngai na makasi ete nazongisa eloko oyo nayibaki te.
5 O God, Thou knowest my folly; and my trespasses are not hid from Thee.
Nzambe, oyebi bozoba na ngai, mpe mabe na ngai ezali ya kobombama te na miso na Yo.
6 Let not them that wait for Thee be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of hosts; let not those that seek Thee be brought to confusion through me, O God of Israel.
Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, tika ete ba-oyo batiaka elikya kati na Yo basila lokumu te likolo na ngai! Nzambe ya Isalaele, tika ete bato oyo balukaka Yo bayokisama soni te likolo na ngai!
7 Because for Thy sake I have borne reproach; confusion hath covered my face.
Pamba te nandimi kofingama mpo na Yo, mpe soni ezipi ngai elongi.
8 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.
Bandeko na ngai bakomi kozwa ngai lokola moto oyo bayebi te, nakomi lokola mopaya na miso ya bana ya mama na ngai.
9 Because zeal for Thy house hath eaten me up, and the reproaches of them that reproach Thee are fallen upon me.
Pamba te bolingo oyo nazali na yango mpo na ndako na Yo ezali kozikisa ngai, mpe mafinga ya bato oyo bafingaka Yo ezali kokweya na moto na ngai.
10 And I wept with my soul fasting, and that became unto me a reproach.
Soki naleli mpe nakili bilei, nasengeli kaka kofingama;
11 I made sackcloth also my garment, and I became a byword unto them.
soki nalati saki, bato basalaka masapo mpo na kotiola ngai.
12 They that sit in the gate talk of me; and I am the song of the drunkards.
Bato oyo bavandi na ekuke batiolaka ngai, balangwi masanga bayembaka kombo na ngai kati na banzembo na bango.
13 But as for me, let my prayer be unto Thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time; O God, in the abundance of Thy mercy, answer me with the truth of Thy salvation.
Yawe, nabondeli Yo! Nzambe, tango ekoki, tango ya kotalisa ngai bolingo monene na Yo! Yanola ngai na nzela ya boyengebene mpe lobiko na Yo!
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink; let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Bimisa ngai na potopoto, sala ete nazinda lisusu te, nakangolama wuta na maboko ya bayini na ngai mpe nabima na mayi ya mozindo!
15 Let not the waterflood overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up; and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
Tika ete mbonge ya mayi emema ngai lisusu te, mozindo emela lisusu ngai te, mpe libulu ekangamela ngai te!
16 Answer me, O LORD, for Thy mercy is good; according to the multitude of Thy compassions turn Thou unto me.
Yawe, yanola ngai, pamba te bolingo na Yo ezali malamu; baluka epai na ngai, na mawa monene na Yo.
17 And hide not Thy face from Thy servant; for I am in distress; answer me speedily.
Kobombela lisusu mosali na Yo te elongi na Yo. Yanola ngai noki, pamba te nazali na pasi.
18 Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it; ransom me because of mine enemies.
Pusana pene na ngai, mpe sikola ngai; kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya bayini na ngai.
19 Thou knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; mine adversaries are all before Thee.
Oyebi ndenge nini nazali kofingama, oyebi soni mpe kosambwa na ngai; banguna na ngai nyonso bazali liboso na Yo.
20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am sore sick; and I looked for some to show compassion, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
Mafinga ezokisi motema na ngai, mpe pota yango ezali kosila te; nazelaki elembo ya mawa kowuta na bato, kasi namonaki yango te; nalukaki babondisi, kasi namonaki bango te.
21 Yea, they put poison into my food; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
Batiaki ngenge kati na bilei na ngai, mpe bamelisaki ngai vino ya ngayi tango nayokaki posa ya mayi.
22 Let their table before them become a snare; and when they are in peace, let it become a trap.
Tika ete mesa na bango ekoma motambo liboso na bango, mpe kimia na bango ekoma monyama.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to totter.
Tika ete miso na bango ekufa mpo ete bamona lisusu te, mpe babela mikongo mpo na libela.
24 Pour out Thine indignation upon them, and let the fierceness of Thine anger overtake them.
Sopela bango kanda makasi na Yo, mpe tika ete kanda na Yo ya makasi ekanga bango.
25 Let their encampment be desolate; let none dwell in their tents.
Tika ete molako na bango etikala polele, mpe ete moto moko te avanda na bandako na bango ya kapo.
26 For they persecute him whom Thou hast smitten; and they tell of the pain of those whom Thou hast wounded.
Pamba te bazali konyokola bato oyo ozokisaki, mpe bazali kopanza sango ya pasi ya bato oyo oyokisaki pasi.
27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity; and let them not come into Thy righteousness.
Bakisa mabe na likolo ya mabe na bango, mpe kokota likambo na bango te na bosembo na Yo.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
Tika ete bakombo na bango elongwa na buku ya bomoi, mpe batangama te na molongo ya bato ya sembo.
29 But I am afflicted and in pain; let Thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.
Solo, nazali mobola mpe moto ya pasi; kasi lobiko na Yo, oh Nzambe, ebatelaka ngai.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.
Nakoyemba mpo na lokumu ya Kombo ya Nzambe, mpe nakopesa Ye nkembo elongo na matondi.
31 And it shall please the LORD better than a bullock that hath horns and hoofs.
Yango nde ekosepelisa Yawe, koleka ngombe oyo ezali na maseke mpe na makolo ekabwana.
32 The humble shall see it, and be glad; ye that seek after God, let your heart revive.
Babola bamoni mpe bazali kosepela. Tika ete mitema na bino oyo bolukaka Nzambe ezala na bomoi!
33 For the LORD hearkeneth unto the needy, and despiseth not His prisoners.
Pamba te Yawe ayokaka bato oyo bakelela, mpe atiolaka bato na Ye te ata bazali bakangami kati na boloko.
34 Let heaven and earth praise Him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.
Tika ete likolo mpe mabele, bibale minene mpe nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango ekumisa Ye!
35 For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah; and they shall abide there, and have it in possession.
Pamba te Nzambe akobikisa Siona mpe akotonga lisusu bingumba ya Yuda. Bato bakovanda kuna mpe bakozwa yango lokola libula na bango.
36 The seed also of His servants shall inherit it; and they that love His name shall dwell therein.
Bakitani ya basali na Ye bakozwa yango lokola libula, mpe bato oyo balingaka Kombo na Ye bakovanda kati na yango.
