2 Samuel 22
1 And David spake unto YHWH the words of this song in the day that YHWH had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:
Davidi ayembelaki Yawe nzembo na maloba oyo, tango Yawe akangolaki ye wuta na maboko ya banguna na ye nyonso mpe na loboko ya Saulo.
2 And he said, YHWH is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
Alobaki: Yawe azali libanga na ngai, ndako na ngai ya makasi mpe mokangoli na ngai;
3 The Elohim of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
azali Nzambe na ngai, libanga na ngai mpe ebombamelo na ngai; azali nguba na ngai, nguya oyo ebikisaka ngai, ekimelo na ngai, mpe Mobikisi na ngai. Okangolaka ngai wuta na maboko ya bato mabe.
4 I will call on YHWH, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
Nabelelaki Yawe oyo abongi na lokumu, mpe nakangolamaki wuta na maboko ya banguna na ngai.
5 When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of wicked men made me afraid;
Mbonge ya kufa efinaki ngai, mpela ya libebi epesaki ngai somo,
basinga ya mboka ya bakufi elingaki ngai, mitambo ya kufa ekangaki ngai. (Sheol h7585)
7 In my distress I called upon YHWH, and cried to my Elohim: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
Kati na pasi na ngai, nabelelaki Yawe, nagangaki epai ya Nzambe na ngai mpo ete asunga ngai. Yawe ayokaki mongongo na ngai wuta na Tempelo na Ye, koganga na ngai mpo na kosenga lisungi ekomaki kino na matoyi na Ye.
8 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
Mabele ekomaki koningana makasi, miboko ya Lola elengaki mpe ebukanaki, pamba te Yawe asilikaki.
9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
Milinga ekomaki kobima na zolo na Ye, moto makasi elongo na makala ya moto ekomaki kobima na monoko na Ye.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
Afungolaki Lola mpe akitaki, mapata ya mwindo ezalaki na se ya matambe na Ye.
11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
Amataki na likolo ya Sheribe mpe apumbwaki, apepaki na mapapu ya mopepe.
12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
Akomisaki molili oyo ezingelaki Ye mpe mapata ya mwindo ya likolo, Ndako na Ye.
13 Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
Kongenga oyo ezalaki liboso na Ye ezalaki kobimisa makala ya moto.
14 YHWH thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
Yawe agangaki wuta na Lola, mongongo ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo eyokanaki.
15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
Abwakaki makonga na Ye, mpe atindaki yango na bangambo nyonso; abakisaki motango ya mikalikali mpo na kopalanganisa yango.
16 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of YHWH, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
Na koganga ya Yawe mpe na pema ya zolo na Ye, nzela oyo mayi ya ebale elekelaka ebimaki, mpe miboko ya mokili emonanaki na libanda.
17 He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
Atandaki loboko na Ye wuta na likolo, akamataki ngai mpe abimisaki ngai na likama oyo nazalaki na yango kati na mayi ya mozindo makasi.
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
Akangolaki ngai wuta na maboko ya monguna na ngai ya nguya mpe ya bayini na ngai, pamba te balekaki ngai na makasi.
19 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but YHWH was my stay.
Babundisaki ngai na mokolo oyo pasi ezalaki kokanga ngai, kasi Yawe azalaki eyekamelo na ngai.
20 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
Abimisaki ngai mpo na kokomisa ngai nsomi, akangolaki ngai, pamba te alingaka ngai.
21 YHWH rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
Yawe asalelaki ngai makambo wana kolanda bosembo na ngai, afutaki ngai kolanda bopeto ya maboko na ngai.
22 For I have kept the ways of YHWH, and have not wickedly departed from my Elohim.
Pamba te nabateli banzela ya Yawe, napesi Nzambe na ngai mokongo te lokola bato mabe.
23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
Natosaka mibeko na Ye nyonso mpe nabatelaka bikateli na Ye.
24 I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.
Epai na Ye, nazalaki moto oyo azangi pamela mpe namibatelaki mpo ete nasala masumu te.
25 Therefore YHWH hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
Yawe afuti ngai kolanda bosembo na ngai, kolanda bopeto na ngai na miso na Ye.
26 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.
Solo, otalisaka bosembo na Yo epai ya moto oyo atambolaka na bosembo, mpe bolamu na Yo, epai ya moto oyo azangi pamela.
27 With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.
Otalisaka bopeto na Yo epai ya moto ya peto, kasi omibombaka liboso ya moto oyo atambolaka nyoka-nyoka.
28 And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.
Obikisaka banyokolami, otalaka mpe okitisaka bato na lofundu.
29 For thou art my lamp, O YHWH: and YHWH will lighten my darkness.
Oh Yawe, ozali mwinda na ngai; obongolaka molili na ngai pole.
30 For by thee I have run through a troop: by my Elohim have I leaped over a wall.
Elongo na Yo, nabundisaka mampinga oyo elati bibundeli; mpe na lisungi ya Nzambe na ngai, nakatisaka bamir.
31 As for El, his way is perfect; the word of YHWH is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.
Nzela ya Nzambe ezali ya kokoka, Liloba na Yawe ezali na mbeba te; azali nguba mpo na bato nyonso oyo bazwaka Ye lokola ebombamelo na bango.
32 For who is El, save YHWH? and who is a rock, save our Elohim?
Nani azali Nzambe soki Yawe te? Nani azali libanga soki Nzambe na biso te?
33 El is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.
Ezali Nzambe nde azali ndako na ngai ya makasi, abatelaka nzela na ngai mpe akomisaka yango polele liboso na ngai;
34 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places.
akomisaka makolo na ngai lokola ya mboloko mpe avandisaka ngai na bisika ya likolo;
35 He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
alakisaka ngai kobunda, mpe maboko na ngai ekoki kobenda tolotolo ya bronze.
36 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
Okomisaka lobiko na Yo nguba na ngai, mpe lisungi na Yo ekomisaka ngai makasi.
37 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.
Otambolisaka ngai na kimia, mpe makolo na ngai elengaka te.
38 I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
Nalandaka banguna na ngai mpe nabomaka bango, nazongaka kaka soki nasilisi koboma bango.
39 And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.
Nabebisaka bango nye, mpe bakokaka lisusu kotelema te; bakweyaka na se ya matambe na ngai.
40 For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.
Opesaka ngai makasi ya bitumba, ogumbaka banguna na ngai mpe otiaka bango na se ya matambe na ngai.
41 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
Okimisaka banguna na ngai mosika na ngai, mpe nabebisaka bayini na ngai.
42 They looked, but there was none to save; even unto YHWH, but he answered them not.
Bagangaka mpo na koluka lisungi, kasi moto oyo akokaki kobikisa bango azalaka te; babelelaka Yawe, kasi ayanolaka bango te.
43 Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad.
Nanikaka bango lokola putulu ya mabele, nafinaka bango, nanyataka bango lokola potopoto ya nzela.
44 Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me.
Olongisaka ngai na bitumba ya bato, obatelaka ngai mpo ete nazala mokambi ya bikolo. Bato oyo nayebaki te bakomi kosalela ngai.
45 Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.
Bapaya bazali koya mpo ete nasepela na bango; soki kaka bayoki ngai, batosaka ngai.
46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
Bango nyonso balembi nzoto mpe bakomi kobima na kolenga wuta na bandako na bango ya makasi.
47 YHWH liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the Elohim of the rock of my salvation.
Longonya na Yawe! Tika ete Ye oyo azali libanga na ngai akumisama! Tika ete Nzambe, libanga ya lobiko na ngai, anetolama!
48 El who avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,
Azali Nzambe oyo abundelaka ngai, oyo atiaka bikolo na se ya matambe na ngai,
49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
akangolaka ngai wuta na maboko ya banguna na ngai. Olongisaka ngai liboso ya banguna na ngai, obikisaka ngai na maboko ya banguna na ngai.
50 Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O YHWH, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.
Yango wana, nakosanzola Yo, Yawe, kati na bikolo, nakoyemba mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo.
51 He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.
Yawe apesaka elonga monene epai ya mokonzi na Ye, atalisaka bolingo na Ye epai ya mopakolami na Ye, epai ya Davidi mpe libota na ye mpo na libela.
