Psalms 97
1 The Lord reigneth: let the earth be glad; let the multitude of isles rejoice.
Yave weti yala, bika ntoto wuyangalala. Bika bisanga biobi bidi thama bimona nkini.
2 Clouds and thick darkness are round about him: righteousness and justice are the support of his throne.
Matuti ayi tombi kinkobo binzungididi. Busonga ayi bufuana biawu fundasio yi kundu kiandi ki kipfumu.
3 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up round about his adversaries.
Mbazu yeti kuenda ku ntualꞌandi ayi yeti zinisa batu bobo beti kunlenda ku kadika ndambu
4 His lightnings give light to the world: the earth seeth it, and trembleth.
Zitsiemo ziandi zieti kienzula nza, ntoto weti mona ayi weti tita.
5 The mountains melt away like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
Miongo misiuta banga mafuta momo beti vinda mu bikundu va ntuala Yave, va ntuala Yave wu ntoto wumvimba.
6 The heavens tell of his righteousness, and all the people his glory.
Diyilu dieti yamikina busonga buandi ayi batu boso beti mona nkembo andi.
7 Made ashamed shall be all that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: unto him bow down all the gods.
Babo bobo bambuongiminanga zimfikula beti fua tsoni; bobo beti kukiniemisa mu diambu di bitumba. Lumbuongimina, beno zinzambi zioso.
8 Zion heareth it, and rejoiceth; and glad are the daughters of Judah, because of thy decrees, O Lord.
Sioni weti wa ayi weti mona khini ayi bana ba baketo ba Yuda beti yangalala mu diambu di zinzengolo ziaku, a Yave.
9 For thou, O Lord, art the most high above all the earth: thou art greatly exalted above all gods.
Bila ngeyo Yave, widi Nzambi yizangama va ntoto wumvimba. Ngeyo widi wuyayusu ngolo va yilu zinzambi zioso.
10 Ye that love the Lord, hate ye the evil: he preserveth the souls of his pious ones; out of the hand of the wicked he ever delivereth them.
Bika babo beti zola Yave, balenda mambimbi. Bila weti keba luzingu lu banlongo bandi. Niandi wukubakulanga mu mioko mi batu bambimbi.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
Kiezila kieti totuka mu diambu di batu basonga ayi khini mu diambu di bobo badi lulama mu mintima.
12 Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord, and give thanks to his holy memorial.
Bika lumona khini mu Yave, beno luidi basonga ayi luzitisa dizina diandi di nlongo.
