Psalms 31
1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” In thee, O LORD! do I trust; let me never be put to shame; According to thy goodness deliver me!
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 thine ear to me; help me speedily! Be to me a strong rock, a high fortress, for my deliverance!
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 thou art my rock and my high fortress; Be thou also my guide, and lead me, for thy name's sake!
Mpo ete ozali libanga na ngai mpe ndako na ngai ya makasi, kamba mpe tambolisa ngai mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo.
4 Draw me out of the net which they have secretly laid for me, For thou art my strength!
Bikisa ngai na motambo oyo batieli ngai, pamba te ozali ebombamelo na ngai.
5 Into thy hand I commit my life; Thou wilt deliver me, O LORD, thou 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, And put my 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 thy mercy, That thou hast looked upon my trouble, And hast had regard to my distress;
Nakozalaka moto ya esengo mpe nakosepelaka kati na bolingo na Yo; pamba te omonaka pasi na ngai, mpe oyebi mitungisi na ngai.
8 That thou hast not given me up to the hands of my enemies, But hast set my feet in a wide place.
Okabaki ngai te na maboko ya monguna na ngai, kasi obombaka ngai mosika, na esika ya kimia penza.
9 Have mercy upon me, O LORD! for I am in trouble! My face is consumed with grief; Yea, my spirit and my body.
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 wasted with sorrow, And my years with sighing; My strength faileth by reason of my affliction, And my bones are consumed on account of all my enemies.
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 I have become the scorn of my neighbors, And the terror of my acquaintance; They who see me abroad flee 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 like a dead man out of mind; I am like a broken vessel.
Babosani ngai lokola moto oyo asila kokufa; nakomi lokola mbeki oyo epanzana.
13 I hear the slander of many; fear is on every side; For they take counsel together against me; They devise 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 thee, O Jehovah! I say, “Thou art my God!”
Kasi ngai, natiaka elikya na ngai kati na Yo, Yawe, mpe nalobaka: « Ozali Nzambe na ngai. »
15 My destiny is in thy hand; Deliver me from the power of my enemies and persecutors!
Mikolo ya bomoi na ngai ezali kati na maboko na Yo; kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya banguna mpe ya bayini na ngai.
16 Let thy face shine upon thy servant, And save me through thy mercy!
Tala ngai mosali na Yo, na miso ya bolingo; bikisa ngai kati na bolingo na Yo.
17 Let me not be put to shame, O LORD! for I have called upon thee; Let the wicked be put to shame; Let them be silenced in the grave! (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 lying lips be put to silence, Which speak proud things against the righteous, With haughtiness 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 O how great is thy goodness, which thou treasurest up for them that fear thee; Which thou showest to them that trust in thee, before the sons of men!
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 Thou hidest them in the secret place of thy presence from the machinations of men; Thou shelterest them in thy pavilion from the violence 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 Praised be the LORD; for he hath shown me his wonderful kindness, As in a fortified city!
Tika ete Yawe akumisama, pamba te atalisaki ngai bolingo na Ye ya kokamwa, tango nazalaki kati na engumba oyo ezingelamaki na banguna!
22 I said in my distress, “I am cut off from before thine eyes;” But thou didst hear the voice of my supplication, When I cried unto thee.
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 O love the LORD, all ye his servants; For the LORD preserveth the faithful, And requiteth the proud in full measure!
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 of good courage; let your hearts be strong, All ye who trust in the LORD!
Bino nyonso oyo botalelaka Yawe, bozala makasi mpe boyika mpiko.
