Psalms 31
1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] In you, LORD, I take refuge. Let me never be disappointed. Deliver me in your righteousness.
Nzembo ya Davidi. Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eh Yawe, kati na Yo nde nazwa ebombamelo; kondima te ete nayoka soni! Bikisa ngai na bosembo na Yo!
2 Bow down your ear to me. Deliver me speedily. Be to me a strong rock, a house of defense to save me.
Yoka ngai mpe kangola ngai noki! Zala mpo na ngai libanga oyo ezingelami na bamir mpe ndako batonga makasi mpo na kobikisa ngai.
3 For you are my rock and my fortress, therefore for your name's sake lead me and guide me.
Mpo ete ozali libanga na ngai mpe ndako na ngai ya makasi, kamba mpe tambolisa ngai mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo.
4 Pluck me out of the net that they have laid secretly for me, for you are my stronghold.
Bikisa ngai na motambo oyo batieli ngai, pamba te ozali ebombamelo na ngai.
5 Into your hands I commit my spirit. You redeem me, LORD, God of truth.
Nazongisi molimo na ngai kati na maboko na Yo, Yawe, Nzambe ya solo, oyo okangolaki ngai.
6 I hate those who regard lying vanities, but I trust in the LORD.
Nalingaka te bato nyonso oyo bakangamaka na banzambe ya bikeko, pamba te natiaka elikya na ngai kati na Yawe.
7 I will be glad and rejoice in your loving kindness, for you have seen my affliction. You have known my soul in adversities.
Nakozalaka moto ya esengo mpe nakosepelaka kati na bolingo na Yo; pamba te omonaka pasi na ngai, mpe oyebi mitungisi na ngai.
8 You have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy. You have set my feet in a large place.
Okabaki ngai te na maboko ya monguna na ngai, kasi obombaka ngai mosika, na esika ya kimia penza.
9 Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am in distress. My eye, my soul, and my body waste away with grief.
Yawe, yokela ngai mawa, pamba te nazali kati na pasi; miso, motema mpe nzoto na ngai mobimba ebebi mpo na mawa.
10 For my life is spent with sorrow, my years with sighing. My strength fails because of my affliction, and my bones waste away.
Bomoi na ngai ekawuki mpo na pasi, mpe mibu na ngai ezali koleka kati na kolela; makasi na ngai esili mpo na mabe na ngai, mpe mikuwa na ngai elembi.
11 Because of all my adversaries I have become utterly contemptible to my neighbors, A fear to my acquaintances. Those who saw me on the street fled from me.
Banguna na ngai nyonso bakomi kozwa ngai lokola eloko ya lisuma, baninga na ngai bakomi kozwa ngai lokola eloko ya soni, mpe bato oyo bayebi ngai bakomi kozwa ngai lokola eloko ya somo.
12 I am forgotten from their hearts like a dead man. I am like broken pottery.
Babosani ngai lokola moto oyo asila kokufa; nakomi lokola mbeki oyo epanzana.
13 For I have heard the slander of many, terror on every side, while they conspire together against me, they plot to take away my life.
Nayokaka matongi na bango na tina na ngai tango basanganaka mpe basalaka makita mpo na koluka ndenge nini koboma ngai.
14 But I trust in you, LORD. I said, "You are my God."
Kasi ngai, natiaka elikya na ngai kati na Yo, Yawe, mpe nalobaka: « Ozali Nzambe na ngai. »
15 My times are in your hand. Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me.
Mikolo ya bomoi na ngai ezali kati na maboko na Yo; kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya banguna mpe ya bayini na ngai.
16 Make your face to shine on your servant. Save me in your loving kindness.
Tala ngai mosali na Yo, na miso ya bolingo; bikisa ngai kati na bolingo na Yo.
17 Let me not be disappointed, LORD, for I have called on you. Let the wicked be disappointed. Let them be silent in Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Yawe, sala ete nayokisama soni te, pamba te nabeleli Yo. Kasi tika ete bato mabe nde bayoka soni mpe bakita kino na mboka ya bakufi. (Sheol h7585)
18 Let the lying lips be mute, which speak against the righteous insolently, with pride and contempt.
Tika ete ekangama, bibebu oyo elobaka lokuta, oyo elobaka na lolendo mpe na lofundu, oyo ebebisaka lokumu ya moto ya sembo na nzela ya songisongi.
19 Oh how great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you have worked for those who take refuge in you, before the descendants of Adam.
Boboto na Yo ezali penza monene, boboto oyo obombaka mpo na bato oyo batosaka Yo, boboto oyo otalisaka epai ya bato oyo bazwaka Yo lokola ebombamelo na bango, na miso ya bato nyonso.
20 In the shelter of your presence you will hide them from the plotting of man. You will keep them secretly in a dwelling away from the strife of tongues.
Obombaka bango epai na Yo, mosika ya mabongisi mabe ya bato; obatelaka bango kati na Yo, mosika ya bato oyo babundisaka bango.
21 Praise be to the LORD, for he has shown me his marvelous loving kindness in a besieged city.
Tika ete Yawe akumisama, pamba te atalisaki ngai bolingo na Ye ya kokamwa, tango nazalaki kati na engumba oyo ezingelamaki na banguna!
22 As for me, I said in my haste, "I am cut off from before your eyes." Nevertheless you heard the voice of my petitions when I cried to you.
Kati na kobanga na ngai, namilobelaki: « Obengani ngai penza mosika na Yo! » Nzokande oyokaki ngai wana nazalaki kobondela Yo mpe wana nazalaki kobelela Yo.
23 Oh love the LORD, all you his faithful ones. The LORD preserves the faithful, and fully recompenses him who behaves arrogantly.
Bino babulami na Ye nyonso, bolinga Yawe! Yawe abatelaka bato ya sembo epai na Ye, kasi apesaka etumbu ya makasi epai ya bato ya lofundu.
24 Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who hope in the LORD.
Bino nyonso oyo botalelaka Yawe, bozala makasi mpe boyika mpiko.
