< Psalms 61 >
1 For the chief musician; on a stringed instrument. A psalm of David. Hear my cry, God; attend to my prayer.
Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi; kayimbidila mu lusinga. Wa yamikina kuama, e Nzambi tamba dikutu mulusambulu luama
2 From the ends of the earth will I call to you when my heart is faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
Tona kusukinina ntoto, ngeyo ndintela; nditela bu ntimꞌama wumevonga ngolo; wundati va mbata dibanga diodi dindutidi mu nangama.
3 For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
Bila ngeyo wuba suamunu kiama; ngeyo wuba nzo yizangama ayi yingolo va ntuala mutu weti kundenda.
4 Let me live in your tabernacle forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings. (Selah)
Ndiela zingila mu nzo aku yi ngoto; mu zithangu zioso ayi ndiela suamina ku tsi mavavi maku.
5 For you, God, have heard my vows, you have given me the inheritance of those who honor your name.
Bila ngeyo, wuwa zikhanu ziama, e Nzambi; ngeyo wuphana kiuka ki batu bobo beti kinzika dizina diaku.
6 You will prolong the king's life; his years will be like many generations.
Buela bilumbu bi luzingu lu ntinu, mimvu miandi mu diambu di zitsungu ziwombo.
7 He will remain before God forever.
Bika kavuanda va kundu ki kipfumu va meso ma Nzambi mu zithangu zioso; tula luzolo luaku ayi kikhuikizi kiaku mu kunkeba.
8 I will sing praise to your name forever so that I may perform my vows every day.
Buna ndiela yimbidila nzitusu mu diambu di dizina diaku mu zithangu zioso ayi ndiela dedikisa zikhanu ziama lumbu ka lumbu.
