< Psalms 111 >
1 Praise Yahweh. I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart in the assembly of the upright, in their gathering.
Bokumisa Yawe! Nakokumisa Yawe na motema na ngai mobimba kati na likita ya bato ya sembo mpe kati na mayangani.
2 The works of Yahweh are great, eagerly awaited by all those who desire them.
Yawe asalaka makambo minene; bato nyonso oyo balingaka yango bakanisaka yango.
3 His work is majestic and glorious, and his righteousness endures forever.
Misala na Ye emonisaka nkembo mpe lokumu na Ye, mpe bosembo na Ye ewumelaka libela na libela.
4 He does wonderful things that will be remembered; Yahweh is gracious and merciful.
Alingaka ete bakanisa bikamwa na Ye. Yawe atondi na mawa mpe atalisaka ngolu na Ye.
5 He gives food to his faithful followers. He will always call to mind his covenant.
Apesaka bato oyo batosaka Ye bilei; akanisaka Boyokani na Ye tango nyonso.
6 He showed his powerful works to his people in giving them the inheritance of the nations.
Amonisaki nguya na Ye epai ya bato na Ye na nzela ya misala na Ye tango apesaki bango libula ya bato ya bikolo mosusu.
7 The works of his hands are trustworthy and just; all his instructions are reliable.
Misala na Ye nyonso elakisaka boyengebene mpe bosembo na Ye; mibeko na Ye nyonso ebongi na kondima yango.
8 They are established forever, to be observed faithfully and properly.
Epesama mpo na libela, mpe esengeli kotosa yango na bosembo mpe na bosolo.
9 He gave victory to his people; he ordained his covenant forever; holy and awesome is his name.
Akangolaki bato na Ye, mpe asalaki Boyokani ya libela elongo na bango. Azali Nzambe Mosantu mpe Nzambe ya somo.
10 To honor Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom; those who carry out his instructions have good understanding. His praise endures forever.
Kotosa Yawe ezali mosisa ya bwanya; bato nyonso oyo batosaka Yawe bazali na mayele ya peto. Lokumu ya Yawe ezali ya libela na libela.
