Psalms 55
1 [For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David.] Listen to my prayer, God. Do not hide yourself from my petition.
Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi, kayimbidila. Dimba lusambulu luama, a Nzambi; ayi kadi zimbakana mambu mama.
2 Attend to me, and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and moan,
Wunguila ayi wuphani mvutu; mayindu mama malembo mbonisa phasi ayi ndilembo sambi;
3 Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the oppression of the wicked. For they bring suffering on me. In anger they hold a grudge against me.
mu diambu di mbembo yi mbeni; mu diambu di yamusu ku mutu wumbimbi bila minu beti yekikilanga ziphasi bila balembo mfingi mu nganzi awu.
4 My heart is severely pained within me. The terrors of death have fallen on me.
Ntimꞌama widi mu maniongo mu minu; ayi boma bu lufua lu mbuididi.
5 Fearfulness and trembling have come on me. Horror has overwhelmed me.
Tsisi ayi lukhuku bieka mu minu ayi boma bu ngolo bumbuididi.
6 I said, "Oh that I had wings like a dove. Then I would fly away, and be at rest.
Buna ndituba: “Enati ndiba ayi mavavi ma dibembi nganu ndieka tumbu dumuka ayi ba mu luvundulu.
7 Look, then I would wander far off. I would lodge in the wilderness." (Selah)
Nganu, ndiela tinina ku thama, ayi vuanda ku dikanga.
8 "I would hurry to a shelter from the stormy wind and storm."
Ndiela tina nsualu mu tomba suamunu ku buangu kikambulu phemo yingolo ayi vuka kingolo.”
9 Confuse them, YHWH, and confound their language, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
Kotisa batu bambimbi mu divuda, A Yawe ayi vunzikisa mambu mawu bantuba. Bila ndilembo moni makhemi ayi ziphaka mu divula.
10 Day and night they prowl around on its walls. Malice and abuse are also within her.
Muini ayi builu, makhemi ayi ziphaka bizungidila bibaka bi divula; diela dimbimbi ayi kambu dukisa zitsila bieka mu khati divula.
11 Destructive forces are within her. Threats and lies do not depart from her streets.
Mbivusu kiawu kisalu kieka mu khati divula; khuamusu ayi luvunu bikadi botuka mu zinzila zi divula.
12 For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hid myself from him.
Enati mbeni wumfingidi nganu ndikimba moyo; enati mutu wukundendanga niandi weti kukiniemisa va ntualꞌama nganu ndisuama kuama va ntualꞌama.
13 But it was you, a man like me, my companion, and my familiar friend.
Vayi ngeyo, mutu banga minu wundiatanga yama va kimosi; nkundi ama wu kuikama;
14 We took sweet fellowship together. We walked in God's house with company.
mutu wowo wubedi kalanga yama mu khini; wubedi kibanga va kimosi ayi nkangu wu batu ku Nzo Nzambi!
15 Let death come suddenly on them. Let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is in their dwelling, in the midst of them. (Sheol h7585)
Bika lufua lu bibuila bambeni ziama mu kinzimbukila ayi bika bakuluka bamoyo ku tsi bafua! Bila mambimbi mabakudi buangu va khatitsikꞌawa, (Sheol h7585)
16 As for me, I will call on God. YHWH will save me.
Mbadi minu, ndintela Nzambi, ayi Yave wuphukisidi.
17 Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.
Yiba nsuka, midi ayi masika, Ndieti yamikina mu ziphasi; ayi weti wa mbembo ama.
18 He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, although there are many who oppose me.
Wukukhulanga wumbimba, mu kambu sumbula mu mvita yi banduanisa ka diambu ko bawombo banduanisa.
19 God, who is enthroned forever, will hear, and humble them. (Selah) They never change, who do not fear God.
Nzambi wunyadila va kundu kiandi ki luyalu mu zithangu zioso wela kuba wa ayi wela kuba monisa phasi; batu bobo balendi balula zinzila ziawu ko ayi bakinzikanga Nzambi ko.
20 He has stretched out his hand against those who were at peace with him. He has violated his covenant.
Mutu wundiatanga yama wulembo nuanisa bakundi bandi wubundula Nguizani andi.
21 His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.
Mambu mandi ndelo madi banga dibela muaki mvita yidi mu ntimꞌandi; Mambu mandi madi malebila viokila mafuta muaki madi banga bisabala bikubimini mu vonda.
22 Throw your burden upon YHWH, and he will take care of you. He will never allow the righteous to be upended.
Yekula bizitu biaku kuidi Yave, niandi wela kukindisa; kalendi tala ko ti mutu wusonga kabua.
23 But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in you.
Vayi ngeyo Nzambi, wela buisa batu bambimbi; mintengudi mi menga ayi bankua livunu bela dukisa ko ndambu yi bilumbu biawu; vayi minu diana diama didi mu ngeyo.
