Psalms 37
1 Fret not yourself because of evildoers, neither be you envious against the workers of iniquity.
Nzembo ya Davidi. Kosilikela bato ya mabe te, kosalela bato oyo basalaka mabe zuwa te;
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
pamba te bakokawuka noki lokola makasa, mpe bakolemba noki lokola matiti.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shall you dwell in the land, and truly you shall be fed.
Tia elikya na yo kati na Yawe mpe sala bolamu, vanda kati na mokili mpe lia na kimia.
4 Delight yourself also in the LORD: and he shall give you the desires of your heart.
Komisa Yawe bilengi na yo ya makasi, mpe akokokisela yo posa ya motema na yo.
5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
Kaba bomoi na yo epai na Yawe, tia elikya kati na Ye, mpe akosala:
6 And he shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgment as the noonday.
akongengisa bosembo na yo lokola pole, makoki na yo lokola moyi ya midi.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass.
Batela kimia liboso ya Yawe mpe talela Ye; kosilikela te moto oyo alongaka na misala na ye, mpe oyo asalaka mabongisi ya mabe.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not yourself in any wise to do evil.
Boya kanda mpe kosilika te; kotomboka te, noki te okosala mabe.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait on the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
Pamba te bato oyo basalaka mabe bakolimwa, kasi bato oyo batielaka Yawe motema bakozwa mokili lokola libula na bango.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yes, you shall diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
Etikali tango moke kaka, moto mabe akozala lisusu te; ata oluki ye, okomona ye te.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Kasi bato oyo bamikitisa bakozwa mokili lokola libula na bango mpe bakozala na kimia makasi.
12 The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes on him with his teeth.
Bato mabe basalelaka bato ya sembo makita mpe baliaka minu mpo na kotelemela bango.
13 The LORD shall laugh at him: for he sees that his day is coming.
Kasi Yawe asekaka bato mabe, pamba te ayebi ete mokolo na bango ezali kobelema.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.
Bato mabe babimisi mipanga mpe babongisi batolotolo mpo na kokweyisa mobola mpe moto oyo akelela, mpo na koboma bato oyo batambolaka alima.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
Kasi mipanga na bango ekotobola mitema na bango moko, mpe batolotolo na bango ekobukana.
16 A little that a righteous man has is better than the riches of many wicked.
Mwa biloko ya moto ya sembo eleki bozwi ya bato ebele ya mabe,
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholds the righteous.
pamba te nguya ya bato mabe ekosila, kasi Yawe alendisaka bato ya sembo.
18 The LORD knows the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
Yawe ayebi mikolo ya bato bazangi pamela, mpe libula na bango ekowumela mpo na seko.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Na tango ya pasi, bakokawuka te; na mikolo ya nzala, bakozala na bilei ebele.
20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
Kasi bato mabe bakokufa, banguna ya Yawe bazali lokola fololo ya elanga, bakolimwa lokola molinga.
21 The wicked borrows, and pays not again: but the righteous shows mercy, and gives.
Moto mabe adefaka mpe azongisaka te, kasi moto ya sembo ayokaka mawa mpe akabaka.
22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
Bato oyo Yawe apambolaka bakozwa mokili lokola libula na bango, kasi ba-oyo alakelaka mabe bakolimwa.
23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delights in his way.
Soki Yawe asepeli na etamboli ya moto, alendisaka bomoi na ye;
24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholds him with his hand.
ezala akweyi, akotikala kaka ya kokweya te; pamba te Yawe asimbaka ye na loboko.
25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
Nazalaki elenge, mpe sik’oyo nakomi mobange, namoni nanu te moto ya sembo kosundolama to bana na ye kokoma kosenga-senga bilei.
26 He is ever merciful, and lends; and his seed is blessed.
Akabaka tango nyonso mpe adefisaka, bana na ye bakozalaka kati na mapamboli.
27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for ever more.
Zala mosika na mabe mpe sala bolamu, okovanda na mokili mpo na libela;
28 For the LORD loves judgment, and forsakes not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
pamba te Yawe alingaka bosembo, mpe asundolaka te bayengebene na Ye. Babatelamaka mpo na seko, kasi bana ya bato mabe bakolimwa.
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
Bato ya sembo bakozwa mokili lokola libula na bango mpe bakovanda kuna seko na seko.
30 The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of judgment.
Monoko ya moto ya sembo ebimisaka bwanya, mpe lolemo na ye elobaka kolanda bosembo.
31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
Mobeko ya Nzambe na ye ezali kati na motema na ye, makolo na ye ebetaka libaku te.
32 The wicked watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him.
Moto mabe atalaka moto ya sembo na miso mabe mpe alukaka nzela ya koboma ye,
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
kasi Yawe akosundola moto ya sembo te kati na maboko ya moto mabe, mpe akokweyisa ye te na kosambisama.
34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt you to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.
Zala na elikya kati na Yawe mpe batela nzela na Ye; akonetola Yo mpo ete ozwa mboka lokola libula na yo, mpe okomona tango bato mabe bakolimwa.
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
Namonaki moto mabe mpe na kanza kokoma na nguya mpe kofuluka lokola nzete oyo ezali kokola na mabele na yango,
36 Yet he passed away, and, see, he was not: yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.
kasi alekaki noki mpe azalaki lisusu te; nalukaki ye, kasi namonaki ye lisusu te.
37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
Tala malamu moto oyo azangi pamela, landela bomoi ya moto ya sembo; tango oyo ezali koya ezali kozela moto ya kimia.
38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
Kasi batomboki bakobebisama, tango oyo ezali koya ezali te mpo na bato mabe.
39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.
Lobiko ya bato ya sembo ewutaka epai ya Yawe oyo, na tango ya pasi, azali ndako na bango, oyo batonga makasi.
40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
Yawe asungaka mpe akangolaka bango, akangolaka bango wuta na maboko ya bato mabe mpe abikisaka bango, pamba te babombamaka kati na Ye.
