< Psalms 131 >
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. YHWH, my heart has not been haughty, Nor have my eyes been high, Nor have I walked in great things, And in things too wonderful for me.
Nzembo ya Davidi. Nzembo ya mobembo mpo na kokende na Tempelo ya Yawe. Yawe, motema na ngai ezali na lofundu te, miso na ngai ezali na posa makasi te; namipesaka te na makambo oyo eleki ya minene mpe eleki pasi mpo na ngai.
2 Have I not compared, and kept my soul silent, As a weaned one by its mother? As a weaned one by me [is] my soul.
Kasi nabatelaki kimia kati na motema na ngai mpe namitungisaki te lokola mwana moke elongo na mama na ye. Nazali na kimia lokola mwana oyo mama alongola na mabele.
3 Israel waits on YHWH, From now on, and for all time!
Isalaele, tia elikya kati na Yawe kobanda sik’oyo mpe libela na libela.
