< Psalms 29 >

1 A Melody of David. Give to Yahweh, ye sons of the mighty, —Give to Yahweh, [both] glory and strength:
Nzembo ya Davidi. Bopesa Yawe, bino ba-anjelu ya Nzambe, bopesa Yawe nkembo mpe makasi.
2 Give to Yahweh, the glory of his Name, Bow down to Yahweh, in the adornment of holiness.
Bopesa Yawe nkembo oyo ekoki na lokumu ya Kombo na Ye; bogumbamela Yawe kati na kongenga ya bosantu na Ye.
3 The voice of Yahweh, is upon the waters, —The GOD of glory, hath thundered, Yahweh, is upon mighty waters;
Mongongo ya Yawe eyokani na likolo ya mayi, Nzambe ya nkembo azali koleka elongo na lokito, Yawe azali koleka elongo na lokito na likolo ya mayi minene.
4 The voice of Yahweh, is with power, The voice of Yahweh, is with majesty;
Mongongo ya Yawe ezali na nguya; mongongo ya Yawe ezali na lokumu mingi.
5 The voice of Yahweh, is breaking cedars, Now hath Yahweh, broken down, the cedars of Lebanon!
Mongongo ya Yawe ebukaka banzete ya sedele; Yawe abukaka banzete ya sedele ya Libani.
6 And hath made them leap like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion, like the bull-calf of wild-oxen;
Apumbwisaka Libani lokola mwana ngombe, apumbwisaka Sirioni lokola mwana ya mpakasa.
7 The voice of Yahweh, is cleaving out flames of fire;
Mongongo ya Yawe ebimaka elongo na bakake ya moto.
8 The voice of Yahweh, bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness; Yahweh bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness of Kadesh!
Mongongo ya Yawe elengisaka esobe; Yawe alengisaka Esobe ya Kadeshi.
9 The voice of Yahweh, causeth the gazelles to bring forth, and hath stript forests; and, in his own temple, every one there, is saying, Glory!
Mongongo ya Yawe esalaka ete mboloko ebota, esalaka mpe ete zamba etikala pamba. Kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, nyonso egangaka: « Nkembo! »
10 Yahweh, at the Flood, was seated, And Yahweh hath taken his seat, as king, unto times age-abiding.
Yawe avandaki na Kiti ya Bokonzi na likolo ya mpela; Yawe avandi na Kiti ya Bokonzi lokola Mokonzi mpo na libela.
11 Yahweh, will give, strength to his people, —Yahweh, will bless his people with prosperity.
Yawe apesaka bato na Ye makasi; Yawe apambolaka bato na Ye na nzela ya kimia.
