Psalms 2
1 Wherefore do nations rage, and people meditate a vain thing?
Bila mbi makanda mafuemini e? Bila mbi batu balembo yindudila mambu makambulu fuana e?
2 The kings of the earth raise themselves up, and rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed:
Bila mbi mintinu mi ntoto mitelimini e? Bila mbi minyadi mikutikinini va kimosi mu nuanisa Yave ayi mutu andi kavinda mafuta e?
3 “Let us break asunder their bands, and cast away from us their cords.”
Balembo tubi: “tuzenganu minsinga miawu; tulozanu thama zisieni ziawu.”
4 He who dwelleth in the heavens will laugh: the Lord will hold them in derision.
Mutu wowo wunkalanga ku Diyilu wulembo sevi. Pfumu wulembo basekinina.
5 Then will he speak unto them in his anger, and in his displeasure will he terrify them.
Bosi wulembo bayolukila mu nganzi andi, ayi wulembo kuba monisa tsisi mu miangu miandi mi ngolo.
6 [Saying, ] Yet have I appointed my king upon Zion my holy mount.
Ayi wutuba: “Minu ndibieka ntinu ama ku Sioni, mongo ama wunlongo.”
7 I will announce the decree, the Lord hath said unto me, “My son art thou: I have indeed this day begotten thee.
Ndiela yamikisa lukanu lu Pfumu: Yave wukhamba: “Ngeyo widi muanꞌama. Minu ndibutidi mu lumbu kiaki.”
8 Ask it of me, and I will give thee nations for an inheritance, and for thy possession the uttermost ends of the earth.
Wundombi ayi mandivana makanda; ma maba kiuka kiaku ayi mawu vua ntoto wumvimba nate mu sukisina ntoto beni.
9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; like a potter's vessel shalt thou dash them in pieces.”
Wela kuba yadilanga mu nkawa wu sengo; wela kuba bula banga bu mbudikilanga nzungu yi tuma.
10 And now, O ye kings, be wise: take warning, ye judges of the earth.
Diawu, beno mintinu, bika luba nduenga. Bosi beno mazuzi ma ntoto, bika lutambula ndongokolo;
11 Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
lusadila Yave mu lukinzu ayi lumona khini mu lukhuku.
12 Do homage to the son, lest he be angry, and ye be lost on the way; for his wrath is so speedily kindled. Happy are all they that put their trust in him.
Lubumbakana muana mu diambu di kedi fuema; ayi luedi bungana mu nzilꞌeno. Bila mu mbuetolo yi meso nganzi andi yilenda vika wulama. Lusakumunu kuidi batu boso bobo bantombanga suamunu mu niandi.
