< Psalms 99 >
1 YHWH reigns. Let the peoples tremble. He sits enthroned among the cherubim; the earth shakes.
Yawe azali kokonza; tika ete bato balenga! Avandi na Kiti ya Bokonzi kati na basheribe; tika ete mabele eningana!
2 YHWH is great in Zion. He is high above all the peoples.
Yawe azali monene kati na Siona, mpe Bokonzi na Ye ezali likolo ya bikolo nyonso.
3 Let them praise your great and awesome name. He is Holy.
Tika ete Kombo na Yo ya monene mpe ya somo esanzolama; ezali bule!
4 The King's strength also loves justice. You do establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.
Mokonzi azali na nguya, alingaka bosolo. Olendisaka bosembo. Osalaki bosembo mpe bosolo kati na Jakobi.
5 Exalt YHWH our God. Worship at his footstool. He is Holy.
Bonetola Yawe, Nzambe na biso, mpe bogumbama liboso ya enyatelo makolo na Ye; azali Mosantu.
6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel among those who call on his name; they called on YHWH, and he answered them.
Moyize mpe Aron kati na Banganga-Nzambe na Ye, mpe Samuele kati na bato oyo bazalaki kobelela Kombo na Ye, bazalaki kobelela Yawe, mpe Ye azalaki koyanola bango.
7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.
Azalaki koloba na bango kati na likonzi ya lipata. Babatelaki malako na Ye mpe mibeko oyo apesaki bango.
8 You answered them, YHWH our God. You are a God who forgave them, although you took vengeance for their doings.
Yawe, Nzambe na biso, oyanolaki bango. Mpo na bango, ozalaki Nzambe oyo alimbisaka atako opesaki bango etumbu mpo na misala na bango ya mabe.
9 Exalt YHWH, our God. Worship at his holy mountain, for YHWH, our God, is holy.
Bonetola Yawe, Nzambe na biso, mpe bogumbama na kotala na ngambo ya ngomba na Ye ya bule. Pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na biso, azali bule.
