Psalms 90
1 BOOK IV A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling-place in all generations.
Lusambulu lu Moyize, mutu Nzambi. Yave, ngeyo wuba buangu kieto kivuanda mu tsungi ka tsungi.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever Thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, Thou art God.
Tuamina miongo mibutuka voti tuamina wuvanga ntoto ayi nza; tona mu thangu ka thangu, ngeyo widi Nzambi.
3 Thou turnest man to contrition; and sayest: 'Return, ye children of men.'
Ngeyo wumvutulanga batu mu fundu-fundu bu weti tuba: “Vutuka mu fundu-fundu, e e bana ba batu.”
4 For a thousand years in Thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
Bila va meso maku mili di mimvu midedikini banga lumbu kimosi kiviokidi zono; voti banga thangu yimosi va builu,
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep; in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
ngeyo weti botula batu mu tulu tu lufua, badi banga biti bimona va nsuka.
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
Va nsuka bimenini bimona, va masika bilebukidi ayi biyumini.
7 For we are consumed in Thine anger, and by Thy wrath are we hurried away.
Tulembo lalakana mu diambu di nganzi aku ayi tsisi tulembo moni mu diambu di miangu miaku.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, our secret sins in the light of Thy countenance.
Ngeyo wutudidi mambimbi meto va ntualꞌaku, masumu meto masuama va ntuala kiezila ki zizi kiaku.
9 For all our days are passed away in Thy wrath; we bring our years to an end as a tale that is told.
Bilumbu bieto bioso bilembo mani ku tsi nganzi aku; tulembo manisa mimvu mieto ayi luniongo.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten, or even by reason of strength fourscore years; yet is their pride but travail and vanity; for it is speedily gone, and we fly away.
Tezo ki bilumbu bieto kidi ki lusambudi lumimvu voti lunana enati ngolo zidi yeto. Sina kiawu kidi kaki kiphasi ayi kimianga. Bila luzingu lueti lulembo vioki nsualu ayi tulembo yendi.
11 Who knoweth the power of Thine anger, and Thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto Thee?
Nani zebi lulendo lu nganzi aku e? Muingi miangu miaku miba tola banga lukinzu lolo fueni tambula.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may get us a heart of wisdom.
Wutulongisa tanga bilumbu bieto mu bufuana muingi tubaka ntima wu duenga.
13 Return, O LORD; how long? And let it repent Thee concerning Thy servants.
Bika buela fuema, a Yave. Nate thangu mbi mela bela e? Bika wumona bisadi biaku kiadi.
14 O satisfy us in the morning with Thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
Mu nsuka, bika wutuyukutisa mu luzolo luaku lu ngolo; buna tuela yimbilanga mu khini ayi buna tuela yangalala mu bilumbu bioso.
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein Thou hast afflicted us, according to the years wherein we have seen evil.
Wutuyangidikanga boso buididi bilumbu biobi wutumonisina phasi boso buididi mimvu miomi tuyamusunu.
16 Let Thy work appear unto Thy servants, and Thy glory upon their children.
Bika mavanga maku mamonoso kuidi bisadi biaku; kiezila kiaku kuidi bana bawu.
17 And let the graciousness of the Lord our God be upon us; establish Thou also upon us the work of our hands; yea, the work of our hands establish Thou it.
Bika nlemvo wu Yave, Nzambi eto wubanga va beto, bika mu diambu dieto, wukindisa kisalu ki mioko mieto. Nyinga, kindisa kisalu ki mioko mieto.
