< Psalms 84 >
1 For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely are Thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya bana ya Kore. Ezali ya koyemba na lindanda ya bato ya Gati. Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, tala ndenge bisika oyo ovandaka ezali kopesa posa!
2 My soul yearneth, yea, even pineth for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh sing for joy unto the living God.
Nzoto na ngai mobimba ebukani pene nakufa mpo na posa makasi ya lopango ya Yawe! Motema mpe nzoto na ngai ezali koganga epai ya Nzambe na bomoi.
3 Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young; Thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God —.
Ndeke ya moke ezwaka esika ya kovanda, mpe mbilambila esalaka zala epai wapi etiaka bana na yango, pene ya bitumbelo na Yo, Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Mokonzi na ngai mpe Nzambe na ngai.
4 Happy are they that dwell in Thy house, they are ever praising Thee. (Selah)
Esengo na bavandi ya Ndako na Yo! Bakokumisa Yo tango nyonso!
5 Happy is the man whose strength is in Thee; in whose heart are the highways.
Esengo na bato oyo bazwaka makasi kati na Yo; bakendaka na esengo na Tempelo na Yo!
6 Passing through the valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; yea, the early rain clotheth it with blessings.
Tango bakatisaka Lubwaku ya Baka, bakomisaka yango esika oyo etonda na bitima ya mayi, mpe mvula etondisaka yango na mapamboli.
7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.
Makasi na bango ebakisamaka tango nyonso kino bakomaka na Siona, liboso ya Nzambe.
8 O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
Yawe, Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, yoka losambo na ngai! Nzambe ya Jakobi, yoka ngai!
9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of Thine anointed.
Oh Nzambe, Yo oyo ozali nguba na biso, tala! Tala elongi ya mopakolami na Yo!
10 For a day in Thy courts is better than a thousand; I had rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
Lokola kovanda mokolo moko kati na lopango na Yo eleki kovanda mikolo nkoto moko na esika mosusu, naponaki kotelema na ekotelo ya Ndako ya Nzambe na ngai na esika ete navanda kati na bandako ya kapo ya bato mabe.
11 For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD giveth grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
Pamba te, mpo na biso, Yawe Nzambe azali moyi mpe nguba; Yawe apesaka ngolu mpe nkembo, aboyaka kopesa eloko moko te epai ya bato oyo batambolaka bazanga pamela.
12 O LORD of hosts, happy is the man that trusteth in Thee.
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, esengo na moto oyo atiaka elikya kati na Yo!
