Psalms 68
1 To the Chief Musician. David’s. A Melody, a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, Yea let them that hate him flee before him:
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi. Loyembo. Soki Nzambe atelemi, banguna na Ye bapalanganaka, mpe bayini na Ye bakimaka mosika na Ye.
2 As smoke is driven about, Let them be driven about, —As wax is melted before a fire, Let the lawless perish before God.
Liboso ya Nzambe, bato mabe bakufaka, ndenge milinga elimwaka, mpe mafuta enyangwamaka na moto.
3 But let, the righteous, be glad, let them exult before God, Yea let them rejoice with gladness.
Liboso ya Nzambe, bato ya sembo basepelaka, batondaka na esengo.
4 Sing ye to God, Make music of his Name, —Lift up (a song), to him that rideth through the waste plains, —Since Yah is his name, exult ye before him.
Boyembela Nzambe, boyemba banzembo mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Ye. Bofungola nzela mpo na Ye oyo atambolisaka mampinga na Ye kati na esobe. Kombo na Ye ezali Yawe. Botonda na esengo liboso na Ye.
5 The father of the fatherless, And the advocate of widows, Is God, in his holy habitation.
Kati na Ndako na Ye ya bule, Nzambe azali Tata ya bana bitike, mpe molobeli ya basi bakufisa mibali.
6 God, is he that causeth the solitary to dwell in a home, That bringeth out prisoners into prosperity, But, the rebellious, have made their habitation in a sunburnt land.
Nzambe apesaka libota epai ya bato oyo bavandaka bango moko, abimisaka bakangami wuta na minyololo; kasi batomboki batikalaka na mabele ekawuka.
7 O God! When thou camest forth before thy people, When thou didst stride through the wilderness, (Selah)
Oh Nzambe, tango obimaki liboso ya bato na Yo, tango otambolaki na esobe,
8 Earth, trembled, Yea, the heavens, dripped at the presence of God, —This Sinai—at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
mabele eninganaki, likolo mpe esopaki mayi liboso ya Nzambe, Nzambe ya Sinai; liboso ya Nzambe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
9 A bounteous rain, dost thou shed abroad, O God, upon thine inheritance, When exhausted, thou thyself, hast supported it:
Nzambe, osopaki mvula ya mapamboli, olendisaki libula na Yo mpo ete elembaki.
10 Thy living host, have remained therein, Thou dost provide, in thy bounty, for the humbled ones—O God!
Oh Nzambe, bato na Yo bavandaka na mokili oyo obongisaki, na boboto na Yo, mpo na mobola.
11 Let, My Lord, but give the word, The herald bands, will be a mighty host:
Na liloba moko kowuta na Nkolo, basi oyo bamemaka sango basangani bato ebele,
12 Kings of armies, they flee! they flee! And, she that stayeth at home, shall share the spoil.
bakonzi ya mampinga bakimi, bapoti mbangu, mpe mwasi oyo atikali na ndako akaboli bomengo ya bitumba.
13 Though ye rest between the folds, The wings of the dove, shall be covered with silver, And, her pinions, with green-shimmering gold.
Boni, bokokoba kolala pongi kati na bandako na bino? Mapapu ya ebenga ezipami na se ya palata, mpe bansala na yango ezipami na se ya wolo.
14 When the Almighty scattereth kings therein, It will gleam like snow in the gloom:
Tango Nkolo-Na-Nguya-Nyonso abenganaki kuna bakonzi, anokisaki mvula ya pembe na ngomba Tsalimoni.
15 A mighty mountain, is the mountain of Bashan, A mountain of peaks, is the mountain of Bashan!—
Ngomba ya Bashani, ngomba ya Nzambe; ngomba ya Bashani, ngomba ya basonge ebele,
16 Wherefore start ye up, ye mountains, ye peaks? The mountain God hath coveted for his habitation, Surely, Yahweh will inhabit it ever!
mpo na nini ozali kosala zuwa, ngomba ya basonge ebele, ngomba oyo Nzambe asepelaka kovanda? Nzokande Yawe akovanda kuna libela na libela.
17 The chariots of God, are two myriads—thousands repeated, My Lord, is among them Sinai, is in the sanctuary!
Motango ya bashar ya Nzambe ezali ebele, koleka minkoko; Nkolo azali kati na yango, kuna na Sinai, kati na Esika ya bule.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led in procession a body of captives, Thou hast received gifts consisting of men, Yea even the rebellious, That, Yah, Elohim, might settle down to rest.
Yawe Nzambe, tango omataki na likolo, omemaki bakangami, ozwaki makabo epai ya bato, ata epai ya batomboki, mpo ete okoma kovanda kuna.
19 Blessed be My Lord! Day by day, he beareth our burden for us, GOD himself, is our salvation. (Selah)
Tika ete Nkolo akumisama, mokolo na mokolo! Nzambe Mobikisi na biso alataka makambo na biso.
20 The GOD we have, is a GOD of saving deeds, And, due to Yahweh, My Lord, are escapes from death.
Mpo na biso, Nzambe yango azali Nzambe oyo abikisaka; mpe bikuke ya kufa ezali ya Nkolo Yawe.
21 Yea, God himself, will smite through the head of his foes, —The hairy crown of him that is marching on in his guilty deeds.
Solo, Nzambe apanzaka mito ya banguna na Ye, oyo batambolaka kati na bomoi ya masumu, oyo mito na bango etonda na suki.
22 Said My Lord, From Bashan, will I bring back, —I will bring back from the depths of the sea:
Nkolo alobi: « Wuta na Bashani, nakomema bango; wuta na mozindo ya ebale monene, nakomema bango,
23 That thou mayest bathe thy foot in blood, —The tongue of thy dogs, from the foes, hath its portion.
mpo ete opanza lokolo na yo kati na makila, mpe mpo ete lolemo ya bambwa na yo ezwa eteni na yango. »
24 They have seen thy progress O God, The progress of my GOD, my king into the sanctuary:
Oh Nzambe, bazali komona ndenge ozali koya; koya ya Nzambe na ngai, ya Mokonzi na ngai, kati na Esika ya bule.
25 In front are the singers, Behind are the harpers, In the midst of damsels playing on timbrels:
Bayembi bazali liboso; sima na bango, bato oyo bazali kobeta mandanda ya basinga kati na bilenge basi oyo bazali kobeta bambonda ya mike.
26 In the congregations, bless ye God, My Lord, from among the called of Israel:
Bopambola Nzambe kati na mayangani, bopambola Yawe wuta na etima ya Isalaele.
27 There, is Benjamin, the Diminutive—ruling them, The princes of Judah—their throng, The princes of Zebulun, The princes of Naphtali.
Kuna, Benjame, leki ya suka, azali kotambolisa bakambi ya Yuda elongo na mampinga na bango, bakambi ya Zabuloni mpe ya Nefitali.
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength, —The strength, O God, which thou hast wrought for us.
Nzambe na yo apesi mitindo epai ya makasi na yo; zala makasi. Nzambe, osaleli biso penza makambo.
29 Because of thy temple above Jerusalem, Unto thee, shall kings bear along a gift—
Wuta na Tempelo na Yo ya Yelusalemi epai wapi bakonzi bamemelaka Yo makabo,
30 Rebuke thou, The wild beast of the reeds, The herd of mighty oxen among the calves of the peoples—Each one bowing down with bars of silver, —Scatter thou the peoples, who in wars take delight.
bengana ngando oyo ebombami kati na matiti, lisanga ya bangombe ya mibali elongo na bana ngombe ya bikolo oyo batambolaka kati na mbongo ya bibende ya palata, mpe panza bikolo oyo basepelaka na bitumba.
31 Ambassadors come out of Egypt, The Ethiopian, eagerly stretcheth out his hands, unto God.
Bazwi bakobimela na Ejipito; bato ya Kushi bakoya na lombangu, bakotombola maboko epai ya Nzambe.
32 Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God, Praise in song Adonay. (Selah)
Bino, babokonzi ya mabele, boyembela Nzambe; boyemba banzembo mpo na lokumu ya Nkolo!
33 Unto him that rideth upon the most ancient heavens, Lo! he uttereth his voice, a voice of strength.
Boyembela Ye oyo atambolisaka mampinga kati na likolo, likolo ya libela; oyo, wuta na mongongo na Ye, agangaka makasi.
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God, —Over Israel, is his majesty, And his strength, in the skies. To be revered is God, for his sanctuary, —
Bosakola ete nguya ezali ya Nzambe oyo nkembo na Ye ezali na Isalaele, mpe nguya na Ye ezali kati na mapata.
35 As for the GOD of Israel, he, is giving strength and abundant might to the people. Blessed be God!
Nzambe, wuta kati na bisika na Yo ya bule, obongi na botosi! Nzambe ya Isalaele apesaka na bato na Ye makasi mpe nguya. Tika ete Nzambe akumisama!
