< Psalms 141 >

1 A PSALM OF DAVID. O YHWH, I have called You, hurry to me, Give ear [to] my voice when I call to You.
Nkunga Davidi. A Yave, ngeyo nditela; yiza nsualu kuidi minu. Wa mbemboꞌama mu thangu ndilembo kutedi.
2 My prayer is prepared—incense before You, The lifting up of my hands—the evening present.
Bika lusambulu luama luba va ntualꞌaku banga ansa bika mvumbudulu yi mioko miama yiba banga dikaba di masika.
3 Set, O YHWH, a watch for my mouth, Watch over the door of my lips.
Tula nsungi va munu ama, a Yave; keba bumboti muelo wu bididi biama.
4 Do not incline my heart to an evil thing, To habitually do actions in wickedness, Working iniquity with men, Indeed, I do not eat of their pleasant things.
Kadi yinika ntimꞌama ku mambimbi, mu baka kuku mu mavanga mambimbi va kimosi ayi bamvanganga mambimbi; kadi tala ti ndidia bidia biawu bidi lueki.
5 The righteous beat me [in] kindness. And reprove me, My head does not disallow oil of the head, For my prayer [is] still about their distress.
Bika mutu wusonga kambeta, diodi didi dimboti; bika kathemina, diodi didi mafuta va ntuꞌama; ayi ntuꞌama wulendi manga mawu ko. Muaki lusambulu luama luela nuanisanga mu zithangu zioso mavanga ma batu bamvanganga mambimbi.
6 Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock, And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.
Minyadi miawu miela lozo ku tsi tona ku yilu ngumbu ayi batu bambimbi bela longuka ti mambu mama ndituba, matubu bumboti.
7 As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones been scattered at the command of Saul. (Sheol h7585)
Bela tuba: “mutu bu keti kabila ntoto ayi vasila ntoto buawu bobo mimvesi mieto mididi misasakana va muelo tsi bafua”. (Sheol h7585)
8 But to You, O YHWH, my Lord, [are] my eyes, In You I have trusted, Do not make my soul bare.
Vayi meso mama madi kaka kuidi ngeyo Yave, mutu wumvanganga makazodidi Kuidi ngeyo ndintombila suamunu, kadi kundiekula mu lufua.
9 Keep me from the trap they laid for me, Even snares of workers of iniquity.
Wukheba mu makondi bathambila ayi mu mintambu mitula batu bamvanganga mambimbi.
10 The wicked fall in their dragnets together, until I pass over!
Bika batu bambimbi, babua mu makondi mawu veka vayi minu ndiviokila vawu mu luvovomo.
