Psalms 86
1 A Prayer. David’s. Bow down, O Yahweh, thine ear—answer me, For, oppressed and needy, am I;
Libondeli ya Davidi. Yawe, yoka mpe yanola ngai; pamba te nazali mobola mpe moto akelela.
2 O guard my life, For, a man of lovingkindness, am I, —Save thy servant, O thou my God, [Thy servant] who trusteth in thee;
Batela bomoi na ngai, pamba te nazali moyengebene na Yo. Yo, Nzambe na ngai, bikisa ngai, mosali na Yo, oyo natiaka elikya kati na Yo.
3 Show me favour, O My Lord, For, unto thee, do I cry, all the day;
Oh Nkolo, yokela ngai mawa; pamba te nabelelaka Yo tango nyonso!
4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant, For, unto thee, O My Lord, my soul, do I lift.
Nkolo, sepelisa motema na ngai, mosali na Yo, pamba te natombolaka molimo na ngai epai na Yo.
5 For, thou, O My Lord, art good and forgiving, And abundant in lovingkindness, to all who call upon thee.
Nkolo, ozali malamu, olimbisaka, otonda na bolingo mpo na bato nyonso oyo babelelaka Yo.
6 Give ear, O Yahweh, unto my prayer, And attend unto the voice of my supplications.
Yawe, yoka losambo na ngai, yoka libondeli na ngai!
7 In the day of my distress, will I call upon thee, For thou wilt answer me.
Na mokolo ya pasi na ngai, nabelelaka Yo, pamba te oyanolaka ngai.
8 There is none like unto thee, among the gods, O My Lord, And nothing like thy works.
Nkolo, nzambe moko te ekokani na Yo, kati na banzambe; moko te ekoki kosala makambo oyo Yo osalaka.
9 All nations whom thou hast made, Shall come in and bow down before thee, O My Lord, That they may glorify thy Name.
Nkolo, bikolo nyonso oyo osala ekoya kogumbama liboso na Yo mpe ekoya kopesa Kombo na Yo nkembo.
10 For great thou art, and doest wondrous things, Thou, O God, of thyself alone.
Pamba te ozali monene mpe osalaka bikamwa; Yo kaka nde ozali Nzambe.
11 Point out to me, O Yahweh, thy way, I will walk steadfastly in thy truth, My heart will rejoice to revere thy Name.
Yawe, lakisa ngai nzela na Yo, mpe nakotambola kolanda bosolo na Yo. Pesa ngai motema ya sembo mpo ete natosa Yo.
12 I will give thee thanks, Adonay, my God, with all my heart, And will glorify thy Name unto times age-abiding.
Nkolo, Nzambe na ngai, nakosanzola Yo, na motema na ngai mobimba, nakopesa Kombo na Yo nkembo mpo na Yo libela.
13 For, thy lovingkindness, is great towards me, And thou hast rescued my soul from Hades beneath. (Sheol h7585)
Pamba te bolingo na Yo mpo na ngai ezali monene, mpe okangolaki ngai wuta na mozindo ya mboka ya bakufi. (Sheol h7585)
14 O God, the insolent, have arisen against me, And, the assembly of tyrants, have sought my life, And have not set thee before them.
Nzambe, bato ya lofundu bazali kobundisa ngai, mpe ngulupa ya bato na kanza bazali koluka koboma ngai; batosaka Yo ata moke te.
15 But, thou, O My Lord, art, A God of compassion and favour, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness a faithfulness.
Kasi Yo Nkolo, ozali Nzambe na mawa mpe na ngolu, osilikaka noki te, otonda na bolingo mpe na boyengebene.
16 Turn thou unto me, and show me favour, —Give thy strength to thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid.
Balola elongi na Yo epai na ngai mpe yokela ngai mawa; pesa ngai, mosali na Yo, makasi mpe bikisa ngai mwana ya mwasi mosali na Yo!
17 Perform with me a token for good, —That they who hate me may see and be ashamed, In that, thou, Yahweh, hast helped me and comforted me.
Salela ngai elembo ya boboto na Yo mpo ete banguna na ngai bamona yango mpe bakufa soni! Yawe, ozali Mosungi mpe Mobondi na ngai.
