Psalms 90
1 [A Prayer by Moses, the man of God.] LORD, you have been our dwelling place for all generations.
Losambo ya Moyize, moto na Nzambe. Oh Nkolo, ozalaki ekimelo na biso, na bikeke nyonso.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
Liboso ete bangomba ezala, liboso ete okela mabele mpe mokili, libela na libela, ozali Nzambe.
3 You turn man to destruction, saying, "Return, you descendants of Adam."
Ozongisaka moto na putulu, pamba te oloba: « Bino bato, bozonga na putulu! »
4 For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night.
Na miso na Yo, mibu nkoto moko ezali lokola mokolo ya lobi oyo esili koleka, lokola ngonga moko ya butu.
5 You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.
Olekisaka yango lokola pongi ya butu, oyo na tongo, esilaka lokola lititi.
6 In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry.
Na tongo, ebimisaka fololo mpe etelaka noki; kasi na pokwa, enzulukaka mpe ekawuki.
7 For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath.
Kanda na Yo elembisaka biso nzoto, mpe kanda makasi na Yo epesaka biso bobangi.
8 You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
Otiaka masumu na biso liboso na Yo mpe obimisaka na polele makambo oyo tobombaka.
9 For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh.
Mikolo nyonso ya bomoi na biso elimwaka mpo na kanda na Yo, mpe mibu na biso esilaka lokola kolela.
10 The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away.
Molayi ya bomoi na biso ekoki kozala mibu tuku sambo to mibu tuku mwambe mpo na bato oyo baleki makasi; nzokande, etondi na pasi mpe na minyoko, pamba te elekaka noki, mpe tolimwaka.
11 Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you?
Nani ayebi makasi ya kanda na Yo? Moto oyo azalaka na botosi mingi epai na Yo asosolaka malamu kanda makasi na Yo.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Lakisa biso kotanga malamu mikolo ya bomoi na biso mpo ete tokoma na mitema ya bwanya.
13 Relent, LORD. How long? Have compassion on your servants.
Yawe, lembisa moke! Kino tango nini ekowumela? Yokela basali na Yo mawa!
14 Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
Tongo nyonso, tondisaka biso na bolingo na Yo mpe tokoganga na esengo, mpe tokosepela mikolo nyonso ya bomoi na biso.
15 Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
Zongisela biso na mikolo ya esengo, mikolo oyo onyokolaki biso; zongisela biso na mibu ya esengo, mibu oyo tomonaki pasi.
16 Let your work appear to your servants; your glory to their children.
Tika ete biso, basali na Yo, tomona misala na Yo; mpe ete bana na biso bamona kongenga makasi ya nkembo na Yo!
17 Let the favor of the LORD our God be on us; establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands.
Tika ete boboto ya Nkolo, Nzambe na biso, ezala elongo na biso! Mpo na biso, sala ete misala na biso ekende liboso! Iyo, sala ete misala na biso ekende kaka liboso!
