< Psalms 111 >
1 Praise YAH! [ALEPH-BET] I thank YHWH with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the congregation.
Bokumisa Yawe! Nakokumisa Yawe na motema na ngai mobimba kati na likita ya bato ya sembo mpe kati na mayangani.
2 Great [are] the works of YHWH, Sought out by all desiring them.
Yawe asalaka makambo minene; bato nyonso oyo balingaka yango bakanisaka yango.
3 Splendid and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing forever.
Misala na Ye emonisaka nkembo mpe lokumu na Ye, mpe bosembo na Ye ewumelaka libela na libela.
4 He has made a memorial of His wonders, YHWH [is] gracious and merciful.
Alingaka ete bakanisa bikamwa na Ye. Yawe atondi na mawa mpe atalisaka ngolu na Ye.
5 He has given prey to those fearing Him, He remembers His covenant for all time.
Apesaka bato oyo batosaka Ye bilei; akanisaka Boyokani na Ye tango nyonso.
6 He has declared the power of His works to His people, To give to them the inheritance of nations.
Amonisaki nguya na Ye epai ya bato na Ye na nzela ya misala na Ye tango apesaki bango libula ya bato ya bikolo mosusu.
7 The works of His hands [are] true and just, All His appointments [are] steadfast.
Misala na Ye nyonso elakisaka boyengebene mpe bosembo na Ye; mibeko na Ye nyonso ebongi na kondima yango.
8 They are sustained forever and for all time. They are made in truth and uprightness.
Epesama mpo na libela, mpe esengeli kotosa yango na bosembo mpe na bosolo.
9 He has sent redemption to His people, He has appointed His covenant for all time, His Name [is] holy and fearful.
Akangolaki bato na Ye, mpe asalaki Boyokani ya libela elongo na bango. Azali Nzambe Mosantu mpe Nzambe ya somo.
10 The fear of YHWH [is] the beginning of wisdom, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing forever!
Kotosa Yawe ezali mosisa ya bwanya; bato nyonso oyo batosaka Yawe bazali na mayele ya peto. Lokumu ya Yawe ezali ya libela na libela.
