Psalms 24

1 A psalm of David. The earth is Yahweh's, and its fullness, the world, and all who live in it.

Nzembo ya Davidi. Mabele mpe nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango ezali ya Yawe. Mokili mpe ezali ya Yawe, elongo na bavandi na yango.

2 For he has founded it upon the seas and established it on the rivers.

Pamba te ezali Yawe nde atia yango na likolo ya bibale minene mpe apikaki yango na likolo ya miluka.

3 Who will ascend the mountain of Yahweh? Who will stand in his holy place?

Nani akokoka komata ngomba ya Yawe? Nani akokoka kotelema kati na Esika na Ye ya bule?

4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart; who has not lifted up a falsehood, and has not sworn an oath in order to deceive.

Ezali moto oyo azali maboko pembe mpe motema peto, oyo atiaka elikya te na banzambe ya bikeko mpe alapaka ndayi ya lokuta te.

5 He will receive a blessing from Yahweh and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Yawe akopambola ye; mpe Nzambe, Mobikisi na ye, akokomisa ye sembo.

6 Such is the generation of those who seek him, those who seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Selah)

Ndenge wana nde ezali, ekeke ya bato oyo bakangamaka na Yo, ba-oyo balukaka elongi na Yo, Nzambe ya Jakobi.

7 Lift up your heads, you gates; be lifted up, everlasting doors, so that the King of glory may come in!

Bino bikuke, botombola mitondo na bino! Bino bikuke ya kala, bomitombola! Tika ete Mokonzi ya nkembo akota!

8 Who is this King of glory? Yahweh, strong and mighty; Yahweh, mighty in battle.

Nani azali Mokonzi yango ya nkembo? Ezali Yawe, Elombe ya nguya; Yawe, Elombe ya bitumba.

9 Lift up your heads, you gates; be lifted up, everlasting doors, so that the King of glory may come in!

Bino bikuke, botombola mitondo na bino! Bino bikuke ya kala, bomitombola! Tika ete Mokonzi ya nkembo akota!

10 Who is this King of glory? Yahweh of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)

Nani azali Mokonzi yango ya nkembo? Ezali Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, nde azali Mokonzi ya nkembo!
