Psalms 110

1 Yahweh said to my lord [the king], “Sit [here], close to me, in the place of highest honor [MTY] until I [completely defeat] your enemies [MET] [and] make [them like] a stool for your feet!”

Nzembo ya Davidi. Maloba ya Yawe epai ya nkolo na ngai: « Vanda na ngambo ya loboko na Ngai ya mobali kino nakomisa banguna na yo enyatelo makolo na yo. »

2 Yahweh [also said to him], “I will extend your power as king from Jerusalem [to other lands]; you will rule over all your enemies.

Wuta na Siona, Yawe akosala ete nguya na yo ya bokonzi ekende mosika, mpe okokonza kati na banguna na Yo.

3 On the day that you lead your armies into battle, many of your people will volunteer [to join your army]. Like the dew refreshes the earth early in the morning, young men will [encourage you by] coming to help you.”

Na mokolo oyo okotanda basoda na yo na molongo mpo na bitumba, bato na yo bakotonda na mpiko, bilenge basoda na yo nyonso bakoya na lombangu epai na yo ndenge mamwe ebimaka na tongo.

4 Yahweh has made a solemn promise, and he will never change his mind; he has said to the king, “You will be a priest forever [serving Yahweh] like Melchizedek did.”

Yawe alapaki ndayi oyo, akobongola maloba na Ye te: « Ozali Nganga-Nzambe mpo na libela kolanda molongo ya Melishisedeki! »

5 Yahweh stands [in the place of highest honor] your right side; when he becomes angry, he will defeat [many kings].

Nkolo azali na ngambo ya loboko na yo ya mobali, akopanza bakonzi na mokolo ya kanda na Ye.

6 He will judge and punish the people of [many] nations; he will fill the land with their corpses. He will crush the heads of other kings all over the earth.

Akopesa bikolo etumbu: bikolo nyonso ekotonda na bibembe, mpe akonyata bakambi kati na mokili mobimba.

7 But my lord the king will drink from streams near the road; he will be refreshed after defeating his enemies.

Na nzela, mokonzi amelaka mayi na mwa moluka; yango wana atombolaka moto.
