Psalms 61

1 [For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David.] Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki na lindanda. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe, yoka koganga na ngai, yoka na bokebi losambo na ngai.

2 From the most remote place of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Wuta na suka ya mokili, nazali kobelela Yo, motema na ngai ebukani! Mema ngai na libanga oyo eleki likolo epai wapi nakokoka te kokoma ngai moko.

3 For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

Pamba te, ozali ebombamelo na ngai, ndako molayi batonga makasi, liboso ya banguna na ngai.

4 I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Selah)

Posa ya motema na ngai ezali: kovanda tango nyonso kati na Ndako na Yo mpe kozwa ebombamelo na se ya mapapu na Yo.

5 For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

Pamba te Yo Nzambe, oyokaki bandayi na ngai, opesaki ngai libula ya bato oyo batosaka Kombo na Yo.

6 You will prolong the king's life; his years shall be for generations.

Pesa na mokonzi na biso bomoi molayi; tika ete awumela na bomoi.

7 He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

Tika ete awumela na bokonzi libela na libela liboso ya Nzambe! Bolingo mpe boyengebene na Yo ekobatela ye.

8 So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows day after day.

Boye, nakoyemba mikolo nyonso mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo, mpe nakokokisa bandayi na ngai mokolo na mokolo.
