< Psalms 70 >
1 To the choirmaster of David to make remembrance. O God to deliver me O Yahweh to help my make haste!
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi mpo na kokanisa misala ya Nzambe. Nzambe, yaka noki mpo na kangola ngai! Yawe, yaka noki mpo na kosunga ngai!
2 May they be ashamed and they may be abashed [those who] seek life my may they be turned back backwards and may they be humiliated [the] [people] desirous of harm my.
Tika ete bato oyo balukaka kufa na ngai bakufa soni mpe basambwa! Tika ete bato oyo bazelaka libebi na ngai bazonga sima mpe bayokisama soni!
3 May they turn back on [the] consequence of shame their those [who] say aha! - aha!
Tika ete bato oyo balobaka na ngai: « Ah! Ah! » bazonga mpo na soni!
4 May they exult and they may rejoice - in you all [those who] seek you and they may say continually may he be great God [those who] love salvation your.
Tika ete bato nyonso oyo balukaka Yo batonda na esengo mpe basepela kati na Yo! Tika ete ba-oyo balingaka lobiko na Yo balobaka tango nyonso: « Nzambe azali monene! »
5 And I - [am] poor and needy O God make haste! to me [are] help my and deliverer my you O Yahweh may not you delay.
Mpo ete nazali mobola mpe moto akelela, Nzambe, yaka noki mpo na kosunga ngai. Yawe, ozali Lisungi mpe Mokangoli na ngai, kowumela te!
