Psalms 92
1 Yahweh, it is good for people to thank you and to sing to praise you [MTY] who are greater than any other god.
Nzembo ya koyemba na mokolo ya Saba. Tala ndenge ezali malamu kosanzola Yawe mpe koyemba mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo-Oyo-Oleki-Likolo!
2 It is good to proclaim every morning that you faithfully love us, and each night [to sing songs that] declare that you always do what you have promised to do,
Tala ndenge ezali malamu kosakola bolingo na Yo, na tongo, mpe boyengebene na Yo, na butu,
3 accompanied by [musicians playing] harps that have ten strings, and by the sounds made by a lyre.
na lindanda ya basinga zomi mpe na nzenze!
4 Yahweh, you have caused me to be glad; I sing joyfully because of what you [SYN] have done.
Yawe, misala na Yo esepelisaka ngai! Nagangaka na esengo liboso ya misala ya maboko na Yo.
5 Yahweh, the things that you do are great! But it is difficult for us to understand [all] that you think.
Yawe, misala na Yo ezali minene, mpe makanisi na Yo ezali mozindo!
6 There are things [that you do] that foolish people cannot know about, things that stupid people cannot understand.
Moto ya kilikili ayebaka te, mpe zoba asosolaka eloko moko te.
7 They do not understand that although the number of wicked [people] increases [like blades of] grass do [SIM], and they prosper, they will be completely destroyed.
Tango bato mabe bakolaka lokola matiti, mpe bato nyonso ya misala mabe bafulukaka, ezalaka nde mpo ete babebisama libela.
8 But Yahweh, you [will] exalted/be honored/rule) forever.
Kasi Yo, kuna na likolo, ozali Yawe mpo na libela.
9 Yahweh, your enemies will [certainly] die, and those who do wicked things will be defeated/scattered.
Yawe, banguna na Yo, banguna na Yo bakokufa penza; bato nyonso ya misala mabe bakolimwa.
10 But you have caused me to be as strong [MTY] as [SIM] a wild ox; you have caused me to be very joyful [MTY].
Okomisi ngai makasi lokola mpakasa, opakoli ngai mafuta ya sika.
11 I [SYN] have seen you defeat my enemies; d I have heard those evil men wail/scream while they were being slaughtered.
Miso na ngai ekomi komona bayini na ngai, mpe matoyi na ngai ekomi koyoka banguna na ngai nyonso, oyo bamibongisa mpo na kosala ngai mabe.
12 But righteous [people] will prosper like [SIM] palm trees that grow well, or like [SIM] cedar [trees] that grow in Lebanon.
Bato ya sembo bafulukaka lokola nzete ya mbila, bakolaka lokola nzete ya sedele ya Libani.
13 [They are like the trees] that grow near the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem], those trees that are close to the courtyard of the temple of our God.
Lokola bapikama ngwi kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, bamonaka bolamu kati na lopango ya Nzambe na biso.
14 [Even] when righteous people become old, they do many things [IDM] [that please God]. They remain strong and full of energy, [like trees that] [MET] remain full of sap.
Ata bakomi mibange, babotaka kaka, bazalaka kaka makasi mpe kitoko,
15 That shows that Yahweh is just; he is [like a huge] rock [under which I am safe/protected], and he never does anything that is wicked/wrong.
basakolaka: « Yawe azali alima, azali Libanga na biso; kati na Ye, mabe ezali te! »
