Psalms 22
1 To the Chief Musician. On "the Hind of the Dawn." A Melody of David. My GOD, my GOD, why hast thou forsaken me? Far from saving me, The words of my loud lamentation?
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi, ya koyemba lokola nzembo na kombo « Mboloko ya tongo. » Nzambe na ngai, Nzambe na ngai, mpo na nini osundoli ngai? Mpo na nini otelemi mosika? Mpo na nini ozali kobikisa ngai te? Mpo na nini ozali koyoka te koganga na ngai?
2 My God! I keep crying—By day, and thou dost not answer, and, By night, and there is no rest for me.
Nzambe na ngai, na moyi, nabeleli Yo, kasi oyanoli ngai te; na butu, nabeleli lisusu, mpe natikali kovanda nye te.
3 But, thou, art holy, Who inhabitest the praises of Israel.
Nzokande, ozali Mosantu, ovandaka na Kiti na Yo ya Bokonzi, kati na masanzoli ya Isalaele.
4 In thee, trusted our fathers, They trusted, and thou didst deliver them;
Batata na biso batiaki elikya na bango kati na Yo, bamipesaki epai na Yo, mpe okangolaki bango.
5 Unto thee, made they outcry, and escaped, In thee, they trusted, and had not turned pale.
Bagangaki epai na Yo, mpe Yo okangolaki bango; batiaki elikya na bango kati na Yo mpe bayokisamaki soni te.
6 But, I, am a worm and no one, a reproach of men, and despised of a people;
Nazali lisusu moto te, kasi mutsopi; bato nyonso bazali kofinga mpe kotiola ngai.
7 All that see me, laugh at me, —They open wide the mouth, They shake the head: —
Bato nyonso oyo bazali komona ngai bazali koseka ngai, bazali kokamwa, koningisa mito mpe koloba:
8 He should trust in Yahweh—let him deliver him, —Let him rescue him, seeing he delighteth in him.
« Atiaka motema na ye epai na Yawe; tika ete Yawe abikisa ye! Tika ete Yawe akangola ye, pamba te asepelaka na Ye! »
9 For, thou, art he that severed me from the womb, he that caused me to trust, upon the breasts of my mother;
Solo, Yawe, obimisaki ngai na libumu ya mama na ngai, obatelaki ngai na kimia na tolo na ye.
10 Upon thee, was I cast from the time I was born, From the womb of my mother, my GOD, hast thou been.
Wuta mbotama na ngai, batikaki ngai na maboko na Yo; wuta libumu ya mama na ngai, ozali Nzambe na ngai.
11 Be not far from me, for, distress, is near, For there is none to help.
Kozala mosika na ngai te, pamba te pasi ekomi pene mpe nazangi moto oyo akosunga ngai.
12 Many bulls have surrounded me, Strong oxen of Bashan, have enclosed me;
Banguna na ngai bazingeli ngai lokola lisanga ya bangombe ya mibali, bazingeli ngai lokola banyama mabe oyo ezalaka na Bashani;
13 They have opened wide against me their mouth, A lion rending and roaring.
mpe bafungoleli ngai makasi minoko na bango lokola nkosi oyo etomboki mpe ezali kolia nyama.
14 Like water, am I poured out, and, put out of joint, are all my bones, —My heart, hath become, like wax, it is melted in the midst of my body;
Nakomi lokola mayi oyo ezali kosopana, mpe mikuwa na ngai nyonso ekabwani; motema na ngai ekomi lokola mafuta oyo ezali konyangwama kati na ngai.
15 Dried as a potsherd, is my strength, And, my tongue, is made to cleave to my gums, And, in the dust of death, wilt thou lay me.
Makasi na ngai ekawuki lokola potopoto, mpe nazali kokoka lisusu koloba te; otie ngai pembeni ya lilita.
16 For dogs have surrounded me, —An assembly of evil doers, have encircled me, They have pierced my hands and my feet,
Bambwa ezingeli ngai, ngulupa ya bato mabe bayei kobundisa ngai, bazali kotambola zingazinga na ngai; bakangi maboko mpe makolo na ngai na basinga.
17 I may tell all my bones, They, look for—they behold me!
Nakoki sik’oyo kotanga ata mikuwa na ngai nyonso; kasi bato bazali kotala mpe koseka ngai,
18 They part my garments among them, and, for my vestment, they cast lots.
bazali kokabola bilamba na ngai mpe kobeta zeke mpo na nzambala na ngai.
19 But, thou, O Yahweh, be not far off, O my help! to aid me, make haste;
Kasi Yo, Yawe, kozala mosika te! Ozali makasi na ngai; yaka noki kosunga ngai.
20 Rescue, from the sword, my life, from the power of the dog, my solitary self:
Bikisa bomoi na ngai liboso ya mopanga, mpe kangola yango wuta na manzaka ya bambwa.
21 Save me from the mouth of the lion, —Yea, from the horns of wild beasts, hast thou delivered me.
Bikisa ngai wuta na monoko ya nkosi mpe na maseke ya mpakasa.
22 I will declare thy Name unto my brethren, —In the midst of the convocation, will I praise thee.
Nakotatola Kombo na Yo epai ya bandeko na ngai, mpe nakokumisa Yo kati na mayangani.
23 Ye that revere Yahweh, praise him, All ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him, And, stand in awe of him, all ye seed of Israel.
Bino bato oyo botosaka Yawe, bosanzola Ye! Bino nyonso bana ya Jakobi, bopesa Ye lokumu! Bino nyonso bana ya Isalaele, botosa Ye!
24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the humbling of the patient one, neither hath he hid his face from him, but, when he cried for help unto him, he heard.
Pamba te Yawe atiolaki te mpe abwakaki te mobola; apesaka ye mokongo te mpe ayokaka ye tango asengaka lisungi.
25 Of thee, is my praise in the great convocation, My vows, will I pay, before them who revere him.
Na ngolu na Yo, nakumisaka Yo kati na mayangani, nakokisaka bandayi na ngai na miso ya bato oyo batosaka Yo.
26 The patient wronged-ones shall eat and be satisfied, They shall praise Yahweh, who are seekers of him, Let your heart live for aye.
Babola bakolia mpe bakotonda; bato oyo balukaka Yawe bakosanzola Ye. Tika ete bozala na bomoi libela na libela.
27 All the ends of the earth, will remember and turn to Yahweh, Yea all the families of the nations, will bow themselves down before thee,
Mokili mobimba ekokanisa Yawe, ekomipesa epai na Ye; mpe bituka nyonso ya bikolo ekogumbama liboso na Ye.
28 For, to Yahweh, belongeth the kingdom, And One to Rule over the nations.
Pamba te Yawe azali Mokonzi, azali kokonza bikolo.
29 All the great ones of the earth, shall eat and bow down, Before him shall kneel, all that go down to the dust, Even he who had not kept alive, his own soul!
Bazwi nyonso ya mokili bakolia mpe bakogumbamela Ye; bato nyonso oyo bazali kokende na kunda, ba-oyo bakoki te komibatela na bomoi, bakogumbama liboso na Ye.
30 My seed, shall serve him, It shall be recounted, of the Lord, to a generation that shall come:
Bakitani na bango bakosalela Yawe mpe bakopanza sango na Ye epai ya ekeke oyo ekoya na sima;
31 That his righteousness may be declared to a people to be born, That he wrought with effect!
bakosakola misala ya bosembo na Ye, epai ya bato oyo bakobotama.
