< Psalms 22 >
1 “To the chief musician upon Ayeleth-hashachar, a psalm of David.” My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from saving me, and from the words of my loud complaint?
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi, ya koyemba lokola nzembo na kombo « Mboloko ya tongo. » Nzambe na ngai, Nzambe na ngai, mpo na nini osundoli ngai? Mpo na nini otelemi mosika? Mpo na nini ozali kobikisa ngai te? Mpo na nini ozali koyoka te koganga na ngai?
2 O my God! I call in the day-time, but thou answerest not; and in the night I find no rest.
Nzambe na ngai, na moyi, nabeleli Yo, kasi oyanoli ngai te; na butu, nabeleli lisusu, mpe natikali kovanda nye te.
3 But thou art holy, O thou that dwellest amidst the praises of Israel.
Nzokande, ozali Mosantu, ovandaka na Kiti na Yo ya Bokonzi, kati na masanzoli ya Isalaele.
4 In thee did our fathers trust: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
Batata na biso batiaki elikya na bango kati na Yo, bamipesaki epai na Yo, mpe okangolaki bango.
5 Unto thee they cried, and were delivered: in thee they trusted, and were not put to shame.
Bagangaki epai na Yo, mpe Yo okangolaki bango; batiaki elikya na bango kati na Yo mpe bayokisamaki soni te.
6 But I am a worm, and not a man, a reproach of men, and despised of people.
Nazali lisusu moto te, kasi mutsopi; bato nyonso bazali kofinga mpe kotiola ngai.
7 All those who see me laugh me to scorn: they draw open their lips, they shake their head, [saying, ]
Bato nyonso oyo bazali komona ngai bazali koseka ngai, bazali kokamwa, koningisa mito mpe koloba:
8 “Let him throw himself on the Lord, that he may deliver him: he will save him, for he delighteth in him.”
« Atiaka motema na ye epai na Yawe; tika ete Yawe abikisa ye! Tika ete Yawe akangola ye, pamba te asepelaka na Ye! »
9 Yea, thou art he that took me from the womb: thou hast been my trust when I hung on my mother's breasts.
Solo, Yawe, obimisaki ngai na libumu ya mama na ngai, obatelaki ngai na kimia na tolo na ye.
10 Upon thee was I cast from my birth: from my mother's womb art thou my God.
Wuta mbotama na ngai, batikaki ngai na maboko na Yo; wuta libumu ya mama na ngai, ozali Nzambe na ngai.
11 Oh be not far from me [now]; for distress is near; for there is none to help.
Kozala mosika na ngai te, pamba te pasi ekomi pene mpe nazangi moto oyo akosunga ngai.
12 Many steers have encompassed me: the strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
Banguna na ngai bazingeli ngai lokola lisanga ya bangombe ya mibali, bazingeli ngai lokola banyama mabe oyo ezalaka na Bashani;
13 They have opened wide against me their mouth, [as] a ravenous and roaring lion.
mpe bafungoleli ngai makasi minoko na bango lokola nkosi oyo etomboki mpe ezali kolia nyama.
14 Like water am I poured out, and all my bones are disjointed: my heart is become like wax, it is melted in the midst of my entrails.
Nakomi lokola mayi oyo ezali kosopana, mpe mikuwa na ngai nyonso ekabwani; motema na ngai ekomi lokola mafuta oyo ezali konyangwama kati na ngai.
15 Like a potsherd is my strength dried up; and my tongue cleaveth to my palate; and into the dust of death hast thou laid me down.
Makasi na ngai ekawuki lokola potopoto, mpe nazali kokoka lisusu koloba te; otie ngai pembeni ya lilita.
16 For dogs have encompassed me; the assembly of the wicked have enclosed me: like lions [they threaten] my hands and my feet.
Bambwa ezingeli ngai, ngulupa ya bato mabe bayei kobundisa ngai, bazali kotambola zingazinga na ngai; bakangi maboko mpe makolo na ngai na basinga.
17 I may number all my bones: [while] they stare and look upon me.
Nakoki sik’oyo kotanga ata mikuwa na ngai nyonso; kasi bato bazali kotala mpe koseka ngai,
18 They divide my clothes among themselves, and for my garment do they cast lots.
bazali kokabola bilamba na ngai mpe kobeta zeke mpo na nzambala na ngai.
19 But thou, O Lord, be not far from me: O [thou who art] my strength, hasten to my aid.
Kasi Yo, Yawe, kozala mosika te! Ozali makasi na ngai; yaka noki kosunga ngai.
20 Deliver from the sword my life, from the power of the dog my solitary soul.
Bikisa bomoi na ngai liboso ya mopanga, mpe kangola yango wuta na manzaka ya bambwa.
21 Save me from the lion's mouth; as thou hast answered me from the horns of the reem.
Bikisa ngai wuta na monoko ya nkosi mpe na maseke ya mpakasa.
22 I will relate thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
Nakotatola Kombo na Yo epai ya bandeko na ngai, mpe nakokumisa Yo kati na mayangani.
23 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and be in dread of him, all ye the seed of Israel.
Bino bato oyo botosaka Yawe, bosanzola Ye! Bino nyonso bana ya Jakobi, bopesa Ye lokumu! Bino nyonso bana ya Isalaele, botosa Ye!
24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the poor; neither hath he hidden his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
Pamba te Yawe atiolaki te mpe abwakaki te mobola; apesaka ye mokongo te mpe ayokaka ye tango asengaka lisungi.
25 Of thee shall be my praise in a great assembly: my vows will I pay in the presence of those who fear him.
Na ngolu na Yo, nakumisaka Yo kati na mayangani, nakokisaka bandayi na ngai na miso ya bato oyo batosaka Yo.
26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied; they who seek him shall praise the Lord: may your heart live for ever.
Babola bakolia mpe bakotonda; bato oyo balukaka Yawe bakosanzola Ye. Tika ete bozala na bomoi libela na libela.
27 All the ends of the world shall remember and return unto the Lord: and all the families of the nations shall bow themselves down before thee.
Mokili mobimba ekokanisa Yawe, ekomipesa epai na Ye; mpe bituka nyonso ya bikolo ekogumbama liboso na Ye.
28 For the kingdom is the Lord's, and he governeth the nations.
Pamba te Yawe azali Mokonzi, azali kokonza bikolo.
29 All they that eat the fat of the earth shall bow themselves down; before him shall bend the knee all that are going down into the dust; for none can keep alive his own soul.
Bazwi nyonso ya mokili bakolia mpe bakogumbamela Ye; bato nyonso oyo bazali kokende na kunda, ba-oyo bakoki te komibatela na bomoi, bakogumbama liboso na Ye.
30 Distant ages shall serve him; there shall be related of the Lord unto future generations.
Bakitani na bango bakosalela Yawe mpe bakopanza sango na Ye epai ya ekeke oyo ekoya na sima;
31 They will come, and will tell his righteousness unto a people yet unborn, that he hath done this.
bakosakola misala ya bosembo na Ye, epai ya bato oyo bakobotama.
