< Psalms 112 >

1 Praise Yahweh! (Happy are/He is pleased with) those who revere him, those who happily obey his commands.
Bokumisa Yawe! Esengo na moto oyo atosaka Yawe mpe asepelaka makasi na mibeko na Ye.
2 Their children will prosper in their land; and their descendants will be blessed [by God].
Bana na ye bakozala bato na nguya kati na mokili; ekeke ya bato ya sembo ekopambolama.
3 Their families [MTY] will be very wealthy [DOU], and [the results of] their righteous deeds will endure forever.
Ndako na ye ezali na bokolongono mpe na bomengo, mpe bosembo na ye ewumelaka mpo na seko.
4 Godly/Righteous people are [like] lights [SIM] that shine in the darkness on those who are kind, merciful and righteous.
Pole engengaka kati na molili mpo na bato ya alima, mpo na moto oyo alimbisaka baninga, ayokelaka bato mawa mpe azali sembo.
5 Things [will] go well for those who generously lend money to others and who conduct their businesses honestly.
Esengo na moto oyo ayokelaka bato mawa mpe adefisaka, mpe asalaka misala na ye kolanda bosembo.
6 Righteous people will not be overwhelmed/worried/distressed [because of their troubles], and they will never be forgotten [by other people].
Solo, aninganaka ata moke te. Bakanisaka misala ya moto ya sembo tango nyonso.
7 They are not afraid of [receiving] bad news; they confidently/completely trust in Yahweh.
Abangaka basango ya mabe te; motema na ye ezali na kimia, atiaka elikya na ye kati na Yawe.
8 They are confident and not afraid, because they know that they will see [God defeat] their enemies.
Motema na ye eninganaka te, abangaka te kino akomona banguna na ye kozwa etumbu.
9 They give things generously to poor/needy [people]; [the results of] their kind deeds will endure forever, and they [will] be exalted and honored.
Akabelaka babola na motema ya esengo; bosembo na ye ewumelaka libela na libela, lokumu na ye ekitaka te.
10 Wicked people see those things and are angry; they gnash their teeth [angrily], but they [will] disappear [and die]. The [wicked] things that they want to do [will] never happen.
Moto mabe amonaka yango mpe asilikaka na zuwa, aliaka minu mpe alembaka nzoto. Posa ya bato mabe elimwaka.
