Psalms 139
1 To the Chief Musician, David’s. A Melody. O Yahweh! thou hast searched me, and observed:
Nkunga Davidi kuidi Pfumu minyimbidi. A Yave ngeyo wuthomba ayi ngeyo wunzebi.
2 Thou, hast observed my downsitting and mine uprising, Thou hast given heed to my desire, from afar:
Ngeyo zebi thangu ndidi wuvuanda ayi thangu ndidi wutelama; ngeyo weti bakula bumboti mayindu mama bu makidi thama.
3 My path and my couch, hast thou examined, and, all my ways, thou well knowest.
Ngeyo zebi thangu ndieti totuka ayi thangu ndieti lambalala; Ngeyo zebi bumboti zinzila ziama zioso.
4 Surely there hath not been a word on my tongue, [but] behold! O Yahweh, thou hast observed it on every side.
Tuamina mambu maba va ludimi luama, ngeyo zebi mawu moso, a Yave.
5 Behind and before, hast thou shut me in, and hast laid upon me thy hand: —
Ngeyo wunzungididi ku manima ayi ku ntuala Ngeyo wutetika koko kuaku va minu.
6 Knowledge, too wonderful, for me! high, I cannot attain to it!
Nzayilu yi phila yoyi, yididi ngolo yitsiminanga kuidi minu; yididi ngolo yinangama muingi ndiyibakidila.
7 Whither can I go from thy spirit? or whither, from thy face, can I flee?
Kuevi ndilenda kuenda suamina phevi aku e? A kuevi ndilenda kuenda tinina meso maku e?
8 If I ascend the heavens, there, thou art! If I spread out hades as my couch, behold thee! (Sheol h7585)
Enati khumini ku Diyilu, ngeyo widi kuna; enati minu thudidi mbukꞌama ku tsina ntoto, ngeyo widi kuna. (Sheol h7585)
9 If I mount the wings of the dawn, settle down in the region beyond the sea,
Enati khumini mu mavavi ma nkielo buisi; enati phuendi ku lubakala lu mbu,
10 Even there, thy hand shall lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
buna kuna diaka, koko kuaku kuela kundiatisa; koko kuaku ku lubakala kuela kutsimbidila ngolo.
11 If I say, Surely, darkness, shall cover me! then, night, is light about me.
Enati khembi: “Bukiedika tombi kiela kutsueka” vayi buna kiezila kikitukidi tombi va ndidi.
12 Even darkness, will not conceal from thee, —but, night, like day, will shine, So is the darkness, as the light!
Muaki tombi kilendi ba tombi kuidi ngeyo ko; builu buela kienzuka banga muini bila tombi kidi banga kiezila kuidi ngeyo.
13 For, thou, didst possess thyself of my reins, thou didst weave me together in the womb of my mother.
Ngeyo wuvanga binama biama bi khati nitu; ngeyo wuthunga va kimosi mu vumu ki ngudi ama.
14 I thank thee, in that fearfully was my being distinguished, Wonderful are thy works, and, mine own soul, is observing [them] intently!
Ndikuzitisa bila ndidi vangu ki tsisi ayi kitsiminanga; mavanga maku madi matsiminanga ayi nzebi buawu bumboti.
15 My substance was not hid from thee, —when I was made in secret, when I was skilfully figured in the lower parts of the earth.
Khubukulu ama yi mimvesi yisia suama va ntualꞌaku ko mu thangu ndikubuku mu buangu kisuama; mu thangu ndivangu va kimosi ku tsina ntoto.
16 Mine unfinished substance, thine eyes beheld, and, in thy book, all the parts thereof were written, —the days they should be fashioned! while yet there was not one among them.
Meso maku mamona nitu ama yikambu kubuku. Bilumbu bioso biobi wukhubikila biba bisonama mu bukuꞌaku, tuamina lumbu kimosi mu biawu kiba.
17 To me, then, how precious have thy desires become, O GOD! How numerous, the heads of them!
A phila thalu mayindu maku kuidi minu, a Nzambi! A phila woka madi!
18 I would recount them! Beyond the sands, they multiply, I rouse myself—and am still with thee.
Enati thidi ku matanga; buna maviokidi nzielo mu thalu; Bu khotukidi, minu ndidi kaka yaku.
19 Wilt thou not, O GOD, slay the lawless one? Therefore, ye men of bloodshed, depart from me!
Enati ngeyo wuzola kaka vonda mutu wumbimbi, a Nzambi! Bika luthatukila beno luntengulanga menga!
20 For they speak of thee wickedly, Thy foes lift up [their hand] unto falsehood.
Beti kuyolukila mu zikhanu zimbimbi; bobo beti kulenda beti sadila dizina diaku mu kambu fuana.
21 Do I not hate, them who hate thee, O Yahweh? And loathe, them who rise up against thee?
Buevi, ndilendi lenda ko bobo beti kulenda, a Yave? A buevi, ndilendi kakumukina ko bobo beti kufuemi e?
22 With completeness of hatred, I hate them, As enemies, have they become to me.
Ndisi kadi diambu ko vayi kikhenene kaka ndidi kuidi bawu; ndieti ba tanga bambeni ziama.
23 Search me, O GOD, and observe my heart, Try me, and observe my cares;
Wumfiongunina, a Nzambi, ayi zaba ndimꞌama; wuthota ayi zaba mayindu mama.
24 And see if there be any idol-way in me, and lead me in a way age-abiding.
Tala kani nzila yimbimbi yidi mu minu ayi wundiatisa mu nzila yi mvu ka mvu.
