Psalms 61

1 “To the chief musician upon Neginah, by David.” Hear, O God, my entreaty; listen to my prayer.

Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi; kayimbidila mu lusinga. Wa yamikina kuama, e Nzambi tamba dikutu mulusambulu luama

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is too high for me.

Tona kusukinina ntoto, ngeyo ndintela; nditela bu ntimꞌama wumevonga ngolo; wundati va mbata dibanga diodi dindutidi mu nangama.

3 For thou hast been a shelter unto me, a strong tower against the enemy.

Bila ngeyo wuba suamunu kiama; ngeyo wuba nzo yizangama ayi yingolo va ntuala mutu weti kundenda.

4 Let me sojourn in thy tent to all eternity; let me be sheltered under the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

Ndiela zingila mu nzo aku yi ngoto; mu zithangu zioso ayi ndiela suamina ku tsi mavavi maku.

5 For thou, O God, hast truly listened to my vows: thou hast given back the heritage of those that fear thy name.

Bila ngeyo, wuwa zikhanu ziama, e Nzambi; ngeyo wuphana kiuka ki batu bobo beti kinzika dizina diaku.

6 Oh, add days unto the king's days: may his years be as of many generations.

Buela bilumbu bi luzingu lu ntinu, mimvu miandi mu diambu di zitsungu ziwombo.

7 May he abide for ever before God: ordain that kindness and truth may guard him.

Bika kavuanda va kundu ki kipfumu va meso ma Nzambi mu zithangu zioso; tula luzolo luaku ayi kikhuikizi kiaku mu kunkeba.

8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may pay my vows day by day.

Buna ndiela yimbidila nzitusu mu diambu di dizina diaku mu zithangu zioso ayi ndiela dedikisa zikhanu ziama lumbu ka lumbu.
