Psalms 79
1 A psalm of Asaph. God, foreign nations have come into your inheritance; they have defiled your holy temple; they have turned Jerusalem into a heap of ruins.
Nkunga Asafi. A Nzambi! Makanda mabulumukini kuika kiaku, Masumuna nzoꞌaku yinlongo, makitula Yelusalemi kunza ki matadi.
2 They have given the dead bodies of your servants as food to the birds of the skies, the bodies of your faithful people to the beasts of the earth.
Bavana zinitu zifua zi bisadi biaku banga bidia kuidi zinuni zi diyilu minsuni mi banlongo baku kuidi bibulu bi ntoto;
3 They have shed their blood like water around Jerusalem, and there was none to bury them.
Batengudi menga banga nlangu mu yendila Yelusalemi ayi kusia monika ko mutu mu zika.
4 We have become a reproach for our neighbors, mocking and derision to those who are around us.
Tuyikidi bila ki lusembo kuidi bafikimini yeto; mvuezolo ayi kisekonono kuidi bobo batuzungididi.
5 How long, Yahweh? Will you stay angry forever? How long will your jealous anger burn like fire?
Nate thangu mbi, a Yave? Wela fueminanga mu zithangu zioso e? Nate thangu mbi kiphala kiaku kiela leminanga banga mbazu e?
6 Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not know you and on the kingdoms that do not call upon your name.
Dukula miangu miaku kuidi makanda momo masia kuzaba ko, kuidi bipfumu biobi kabi telanga ko dizina diaku.
7 For they have devoured Jacob and destroyed his villages.
Bila bameni dia Yakobi, ayi bamana tiolumuna tsi andi yikabutukila.
8 Do not hold the sins of our forefathers against us; may your merciful actions come to us, for we are very low.
Kadi kututangila masumu ma bakulu! Bika kiadi kiaku kiza nsualu kuidi beto bila tueka mu mabienga makambulu diana.
9 Help us, God of our salvation, for the sake of the glory of your name; save us and forgive our sins for your name's sake.
Wutusadila, a Nzambi Mvulusi eto mu diambu di nkembo wu dizina diaku! Wutukuidi ayi wutulemvukila masumu meto mu diambu di dizina diaku!
10 Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” May the blood of your servants that was shed be avenged on the nations before our eyes.
Bila mbi makanda meti tubila: “Kuevi kuidi Nzambi e?” va ntuala meso meto, zabikisa va khatitsika makanda ti ngeyo weti vutula landi mu menga matenguka ma bisadi biaku,
11 May the groans of the prisoners come before you; with the greatness of your power keep the children of death alive.
Bika kunga ku batu badi mu nloko kutula va ntualꞌaku. Mu zingolo zi koko kuaku, tanina bobo bazengolo nkanu wu lufua.
12 Pay back into the laps of our neighboring countries seven times as much as the insults with which they have insulted you, Lord.
Vutudila mu zikhumbu tsambuadi bifingu bi bobo batufikimini; tsembolo yoyi bawobudila ngeyo Yave.
13 So we your people and sheep of your pasture will give you thanks forever. We will tell your praises to all generations.
Buna beto batu baku, nkangu aku wu mamemi weti dikila; tuela kuzitisa mu zithangu zioso; mu tsungi ka tsungi, tuela yolukila minzitusu miaku.
