< Psalms 43 >
1 Judge me, O God, And plead my cause against a nation not pious, You deliver me from a man of deceit and perverseness,
Wundungisa, a Nzambi, ayi wunzonzila mu mambu mama kuidi dikanda di batu dinkambu kinzikanga mambu maku. Wukhula mu batu ba luvunu ayi batu bambimbi.
2 For you [are] the God of my strength. Why have You cast me off? Why do I go up and down mourning, In the oppression of an enemy?
Ngeyo Nzambi, ngeyo zingolo ziama. Bila mbi wundozidi e? Bila mbi mfueti diatilanga mu phasi, yamusungu kuidi mbeni e?
3 Send forth Your light and Your truth, They lead me, they bring me in, To Your holy hill, and to Your dwelling places.
Fidisa kiezila ayi Kiedika kiaku; bila bindiatisa, bika bindata ku mongo aku wunlongo ayi nate ku buangu kioki weti vuanda.
4 And I go to the altar of God, To God, the joy of my rejoicing. And I thank You with a harp, O God, my God.
Buna ndiela kuenda ku ntala wu Nzambi; kuidi Nzambi khini ama ayi yangalala kuama. Buna ndiela kunzitisa mu ngitala, A Nzambi, Nzambi ama.
5 Why bow yourself, O my soul? And why are you troubled within me? Wait for God, for I still confess Him, The salvation of my countenance, and my God!
Bila mbi vongidi bobo, a muelꞌala e? Bila mbi wulembo niongina mu khati ama e? Tula diana diaku mu Nzambi bila ndiela kunzitisa diaka, Mvulusi ama ayi Nzambi ama.
