Psalms 32
1 A psalm of David. A maschil. Blessed is the person whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
Nzembo ya Davidi. Esengo na moto oyo mabe na ye elimbisami, mpe masumu na ye elongwe!
2 Blessed is the man to whom Yahweh reckons no guilt and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
Esengo na moto oyo Yawe atangelaka lisumu te, mpe atambolaka na lokuta te.
3 When I remained silent, my bones were wasting away while I groaned all day long.
Lokola nazalaki kondima mabe na ngai te, nazalaki tango nyonso kolela mpo na pasi.
4 For day and night your hand was heavy upon me. My strength withered as in summer drought. (Selah)
Butu mpe moyi, loboko na Yo ezalaki kofinafina ngai; makasi na ngai ekomaki kosila ndenge makasa ekawukaka na eleko ya moyi.
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you, and I no longer hid my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh,” and you forgave the guilt of my sin. (Selah)
Tango nandimaki masumu na ngai mpe nabombaki mabe na ngai te, nalobaki: « Nakotubela masumu na ngai liboso ya Yawe. » Bongo Yo olimbisaki mabe mpe masumu na ngai.
6 Because of this, all who are godly should pray to you at a time of great distress. Then when the surging waters overflow, they will not reach those people.
Boye, tika ete bayengebene nyonso basambelaka Yo na tango ya malamu! Soki mayi minene etomboki, bambonge na yango ekozwa bango te.
7 You are my hiding place; you will guard me from trouble. You will surround me with the songs of victory. (Selah)
Ozali ebombamelo na ngai; obatelaka ngai mpo ete pasi ekanga ngai te mpe ozingelaka ngai na banzembo ya kokangolama.
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go. I will instruct you with my eye upon you.
Olobaki: « Nakopesa yo malako mpe nakolakisa yo nzela ya kolanda; nakopesa yo toli mpe nakosenzela yo.
9 Do not be like a horse or like a mule, which have no understanding; it is only with bridle and bit to control them that they will go where you want them to.
Kozala te lokola mpunda to lokola mile ezanga bososoli, oyo bakangaka nguya na yango na nzela ya ebende mpe ya singa oyo batiaka na minoko na yango mpo na kopekisa yango kopusana pene na yo. »
10 The wicked have many sorrows, but Yahweh's covenant faithfulness will surround the one who trusts in him.
Bato mabe bazali na pasi mingi, kasi bolamu ya Yawe ezingelaka bato oyo batiaka elikya na Yawe.
11 Be glad in Yahweh, and rejoice, you righteous; shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart.
Bino bato ya sembo, bosepela kati na Yawe, bozala na esengo! Bino nyonso oyo bozali na mitema alima, bobeta milolo ya esengo.
