< Psalms 76 >

1 People in Judah know God; the Israeli people honor him [MTY].
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Ezali ya koyemba na lindanda. Nzembo ya Azafi. Nzambe ayebani kati na Yuda; Kombo na Ye ezali monene kati na Isalaele.
2 His home is in Jerusalem; he lives on Zion [Hill].
Ndako na Ye ya kapo ezali na Salemi; mpe esika na Ye ya kovanda ezali na Siona.
3 There he broke the flaming arrows [that his enemies shot], [and he also broke] their shields and swords and other weapons that they used in battles.
Ezali kuna nde abukaki makonga ya makasi, banguba, mipanga mpe bibundeli nyonso ya bitumba.
4 God, you are glorious! You are like a king [as you return from] the mountains [where you defeated your enemies].
Ozali kongenga lokola mwinda, otonda na lokumu koleka bangomba ya babotoli bomengo ya bitumba.
5 Their brave soldiers [were killed, and then those who killed them] took away everything that those soldiers had. Those enemies died [EUP], [so] they were unable to use their weapons [any more]!
Bilombe nyonso ya mpiko bakweyisamaki, balalaki pongi na bango ya suka; basoda nyonso bakokaki lisusu te kotombola maboko.
6 When you, the God whom Jacob [worshiped], rebuked [your enemies], [the result was that their] horses and their riders fell down dead.
Nzambe ya Jakobi, na kanda na Yo, bato oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda elongo na bampunda bakweyi na somo.
7 But you cause everyone to be afraid. When you are angry [and you punish people], no one can [RHQ] endure it.
Solo, ozali somo! Nani akokoka kotelema liboso na Yo soki osiliki?
8 From heaven you proclaimed that you would judge people, [and then everyone on] the earth was afraid and did not say [anything more],
Wuta na likolo, osalaka ete mokano na Yo eyokana na matoyi ya bato; mokili ekomaka na kobanga mpe evandaka kimia
9 when you arose to declare that you would punish [wicked people] and rescue all those whom they had oppressed.
tango, Yo Nzambe, otelemaka mpo na kosambisa mpe kobikisa banyokolami nyonso ya mokili.
10 When [you punish those] with whom you are angry, your people will praise you, and [your enemies] who (survive/are not killed) will worship you on your festival days.
Pamba te kanda makasi ya bato esanzolaka Yo, mpe olataka kanda ya batikali.
11 [So] give to Yahweh the offerings that you promised to give to him; all the people of nearby people-groups should also bring gifts to him, the one who is awesome.
Epai ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, bopesa bilaka mpe bokokisa yango. Tika ete bato nyonso oyo bazingeli Ye bamemela Nzambe ya somo makabo!
12 He humbles [IDM] princes, and [even] causes [great] kings to be terrified.
Abukaka lolendo ya bakambi, mpe bakonzi ya mokili babangaka Ye.
