Psalms 51
1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after his intercourse with Bathsheba.” Be gracious unto me, O God! according to thy loving kindness; According to the greatness of thy mercy, blot out my transgressions!
Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi; mu thangu mbikuidi Natani kayiza kuidi Davidi mu kitsuza kiandi ayi Betaseba. A Nzambi, wumboni kiadi boso buididi luzolo luaku lu ngolo; boso buididi kiadi kiaku kinneni, kubula zinzimbala ziama.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin!
Sukula mambimbi mama moso. Ayi wuphedisa mu disumu diama.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions, And my sin is ever before me.
Bila nzebi zinzimbala ziama ayi disumu diama didi ku ntualꞌama mu zithangu zioso.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, And in thy sight have I done evil; So that thou art just in thy sentence, And righteous in thy judgment.
Kuidi ngeyo, veka kaka ndivodidi masumu; ayi ndivengi mambimbi va meso maku; muingi wumonika wusonga mu thangu wutuba ayi wukambulu zimbala mu thangu wunsambisa
5 Behold! I was born in iniquity, And in sin did my mother conceive me.
Bukiedika, minu ndidi nkua masumu tona mu mbutukulu; nkua masumu tona thangu ngudi ama kabaka buemba buama.
6 Behold! thou desirest truth in the heart; So teach me wisdom in my inmost soul!
Bukiedika ngeyo tidi ti kiedika kiba mu khati ku nitu. Wundonga nduenga mu khati yi ntimꞌama
7 Purge me with hyssop, until I be clean; Wash me, until I be whiter than snow!
Wuphedisa mu isopi buna ma ndivedila; wutsukula buna ndiela ba wuphembi viokila mvula yi matadi ma phembi;
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness, So that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice!
Bika ndimona khini ayi ndiyangalala Bika mimvesi miomi wukosikisa mi yangalala.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, And blot out all my iniquities!
Sueka zizi kiaku va ntuala masumu mama ayi kubula mbimbi ama yoso.
10 Create within me a clean heart, O God! Renew within me a steadfast spirit!
Vanga mu minu ntima wuvedila, a Nzambi ayi buela kitula mu minu pheve yimona ayi yikinda.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence, And take not thy holy spirit from me!
Kadi kukhuka va ntuala zizi kiaku; kadi botula pheve aku yinlongo mu minu.
12 Restore to me the joy of thy protection, And strengthen me with a willing spirit!
Wuphutudila khini yi phulusu aku ayi bika wuphana Pheve yi luzolo lu mboti muingi yikhindisa.
13 Then will I teach thy ways to transgressors, And sinners shall be converted to thee.
Buna ndiela longa zinzila ziaku kuidi bobo beti vanga zinzimbala, ayi bankua masumu bela vutuka kuidi ngeyo.
14 Deliver me from the guilt of blood, O God, the God of my salvation! That my tongue may sing aloud of thy goodness!
Wuphukisa mu nzimbala yi menga, a Nzambi Nzambi yoyi yeti kuphukisa, ayi ludimi luama luela yimbidila busonga buaku.
15 O Lord! open thou my lips, That my mouth may show forth thy praise!
A Yave zibula bididi biama, ayi munuꞌama wela yamikisa nzitusu aku.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice, else would I give it; Thou delightest not in burnt-offerings.
Ngeyo wuzolanga ko makaba, bila enati buawu; nganu ndinatina mawu; ayi wumonanga khini ko mu makaba mayoko.
17 The sacrifice which God loveth is a broken spirit; A broken and contrite heart, O God! thou wilt not despise!
Makaba ma Nzambi madi pheve yi kosakana ntima wukosakana ayi wu kiadi a Nzambi, wulendi ku milenza ko.
18 Do good to Zion according to thy mercy; Build up the walls of Jerusalem!
Mu diambu di mamboti maku, bika wuvangila Sioni mamboti, tunga diaka bibaka bi Yelusalemi.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with sacrifices of righteousness, With burnt-offerings and complete offerings; Then shall bullocks be offered upon thine altar.
Kuna kuela ba makaba ma busonga, makaba mayoko mamvimba meti kumonisa khini. Buna zingombi zimbakala ziela tambuku va ntalꞌaku.
