< Psalms 72 >
1 Solomon’s. O God! thy justice, give, unto the king, And thy righteousness, unto the son of a king;
Nzembo ya Salomo. Oh Nzambe, pesa na mokonzi mayele na Yo; mpe na mwana ya mokonzi, bosembo na Yo!
2 May he judge, Thy people with righteousness; And thine oppressed ones with justice;
Tika ete asambisa bato na Yo na bosembo; mpe babola na Yo, kolanda boyengebene.
3 May the mountains bring peace to the people, And the hills [be laden] with righteousness;
Bangomba milayi ekomemela bato kimia; mpe bangomba mike, bosembo.
4 May he, Vindicate the oppressed of the people, Bring deliverance to the children of the needy, and, Crush the oppressor.
Akokota likambo ya babola kati na bato, akobikisa bana ya moto akelela mpe akobebisa monyokoli.
5 Let men revere thee, With the sun, And in presence of the moon, Unto the remotest generation.
Bongo bakotosa Yo tango nyonso moyi ekongala, tango nyonso sanza ekongenga, na bikeke nyonso.
6 Let him come down, Like rain on fields to be mown, Like myriad drops on land to be reaped.
Tika ete azala lokola mvula oyo ezali konoka na bilanga oyo balongoli matiti, lokola mamwe oyo ezali kopolisa mabele.
7 May righteousness, in his days, blossom forth, And abundance of peace, till there be no moon.
Na tango na ye, moto ya sembo akokende liboso, mpe kimia ekofuluka kino sanza ekongenga lisusu te.
8 So let him have dominion, From sea to sea, And from the River ["Euphrates"] unto the ends of the earth;
Tika ete akonza longwa na ebale moko ya monene kino na ebale mosusu ya monene, longwa na ebale Efrate kino na suka ya mokili.
9 Before him, let the men of the desert kneel, But, as for his foes, the dust, let them lick;
Bavandi ya esobe bakofukama liboso na ye, mpe banguna na ye bakolembola putulu.
10 The kings of Tarshish and of the Coastlands, A gift, let them render, The kings of Sheba and Seba, A present, let them bring;
Bakonzi ya Tarsisi mpe ya bisanga bakomemela ye mpako ya mokonzi, bakonzi ya Saba mpe ya Seba bakopesa ye makabo.
11 Yea let all kings, bow down unto him, Let, all nations, serve him;
Bakonzi nyonso bakofukama liboso na ye, mpe bikolo nyonso ekosalela ye.
12 Because he Rescueth, The needy from the rich, The oppressed, who hath no helper;
Pamba te akokangola moto akelela oyo azali koganga mpo na kosenga lisungi, mpe mobola oyo azangi mosungi.
13 He Pitieth the weak and the needy, And, the lives of the needy, he Saveth:
Akoyokela mobola mpe moto akelela mawa, mpe akobikisa moto akelela na kufa;
14 From extortion, and, violence, he Redeemeth their life, And precious is their blood in his sight.
akosikola bango na minyoko mpe na makambo na kanza, pamba te bomoi na bango ezali motuya na miso na ye.
15 Let him live, then! And be there given unto him of the gold of Sheba, —Let prayer also be offered for him continually, All the day, let him be blessed.
Akozala na bomoi, bakopesa ye wolo ya Saba. Bakobanda kosambela mpo na ye tango nyonso mpe kopambola ye mikolo nyonso.
16 May there be an abundance of corn in the earth, in the top of the mountains, —Let the fruit thereof, wave like Lebanon, And they of the city bloom like the fresh shoots of the earth.
Tika ete ble etonda kati na mokili, mbuma na yango ebota ebele na likolo ya bangomba lokola Libani! Wuta na engumba, bato bakozala na bofuluki lokola matiti ya elanga.
17 May his Name be age-abiding, In the presence of the sun, let his Name flourish, —And may all the families of the ground bless themselves in him, All nations, pronounce him happy!
Tika ete kombo na ye ewumela libela na libela, ewumela tango nyonso moyi ekozala, mpo ete bato bakoma kotangaka kombo na ye wana bakobanda kopambolanaka, mpe bikolo nyonso ekoma kobengaka ye: moto ya esengo.
18 Blessed be Yahweh God, the God of Israel, —Who doeth wondrous things by himself alone;
Tika ete Yawe Nzambe oyo asalaka Ye moko bikamwa, Nzambe ya Isalaele, apambolama!
19 And blessed be his glorious Name, unto times age-abiding, —And filled with his glory be all the earth, Amen and Amen!
Tika ete Kombo na Ye ya nkembo epambolama libela na libela! Tika ete mokili mobimba etonda na nkembo na Ye! Amen! Amen!
20 Ended are the prayers of David, son of Jesse.
Mabondeli ya Davidi, mwana mobali ya Izayi, esuki awa.
