Psalms 138

1 [A Psalm] of David. I will give thee thanks with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praises unto thee.

Nkunga Davidi. Ndiela kuzitisa, a Yave, mu ntimꞌama wumvimba; ndiela yimbila minzitusu miaku va ntuala zinzambi.

2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and give thanks unto thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

Ndiela buongama ku ndambu nzo aku yinlongo; ayi ndiela zitisa dizina diaku mu diambu di luzolu luaku ayi mu diambu di kikhuikizi kiaku bila ngeyo wuyayisidi dizina diaku ayi mambu maku va yilu bima bioso.

3 In the day that I called thou answeredst me, thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

Thangu nditela, ngeyo wuphana mvutu. Wukhitula nkua ngangu ayi nkua bukhafi bu ngolo.

4 All the kings of the earth shall give thee thanks, O LORD, for they have heard the words of thy mouth.

Bika mintinu mioso mintoto mizitisa, a Yave bu miwilu mambu ma munu aku.

5 Yea, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD; for great is the glory of the LORD.

Bika miyimbila zinzila zi Yave bila nkembo wu Yave widi wunneni.

6 For though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the haughty he knoweth from afar.

Ka diambu ko Yave widi wuzangama, niandi weti tala bobo beti kukikulula ayi zebi bumboti batu badi luniemo bu badi ku thama.

7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me; thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

Ka diambu ko ndilembo diatila va khatitsika ziphasi, ngeyo weti tanina luzingu luama; ngeyo weti nonuna koko kuaku mu kakidila zinganzi zi bobo beti kundenda; mu koko kuaku ku lubakala weti kuphukisila.

8 The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, [endureth] for ever; forsake not the works of thine own hands.

Yave wela dukisa mambu momo keti tomba mu minu. Luzolo luaku, a Yave, lunzingilanga mu zithangu zioso. Kadi yekula bisalu bi mioko miaku.
