< Psalms 76 >
1 For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Ezali ya koyemba na lindanda. Nzembo ya Azafi. Nzambe ayebani kati na Yuda; Kombo na Ye ezali monene kati na Isalaele.
2 And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.
Ndako na Ye ya kapo ezali na Salemi; mpe esika na Ye ya kovanda ezali na Siona.
3 There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)
Ezali kuna nde abukaki makonga ya makasi, banguba, mipanga mpe bibundeli nyonso ya bitumba.
4 You do wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.
Ozali kongenga lokola mwinda, otonda na lokumu koleka bangomba ya babotoli bomengo ya bitumba.
5 All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.
Bilombe nyonso ya mpiko bakweyisamaki, balalaki pongi na bango ya suka; basoda nyonso bakokaki lisusu te kotombola maboko.
6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.
Nzambe ya Jakobi, na kanda na Yo, bato oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda elongo na bampunda bakweyi na somo.
7 You are terrible; and who shall withstand you, because of your anger?
Solo, ozali somo! Nani akokoka kotelema liboso na Yo soki osiliki?
8 You did cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
Wuta na likolo, osalaka ete mokano na Yo eyokana na matoyi ya bato; mokili ekomaka na kobanga mpe evandaka kimia
9 when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek in heart. (Pause)
tango, Yo Nzambe, otelemaka mpo na kosambisa mpe kobikisa banyokolami nyonso ya mokili.
10 For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to you: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to you.
Pamba te kanda makasi ya bato esanzolaka Yo, mpe olataka kanda ya batikali.
11 Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,
Epai ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, bopesa bilaka mpe bokokisa yango. Tika ete bato nyonso oyo bazingeli Ye bamemela Nzambe ya somo makabo!
12 and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible among the kings of the earth.
Abukaka lolendo ya bakambi, mpe bakonzi ya mokili babangaka Ye.
