Psalms 81
1 For the chief musician; set to the Gittith style. A psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud to God our strength; shout out for joy to the God of Jacob.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Azafi. Ezali ya koyemba na lindanda ya bato ya Gati. Boganga na esengo epai ya Nzambe, makasi na biso! Bobetela Nzambe ya Jakobi maboko!
2 Sing a song and play the tambourine, the pleasant lyre with the harp.
Boyemba banzembo, bobeta bambunda mike, lindanda oyo ebimisaka lokito kitoko mpe nzenze!
3 Blow the trumpet on the day of the new moon, on the day of the full moon, when our feast day begins.
Bobeta kelelo na ebandeli ya sanza, na tango oyo sanza mobimba engengaka, mpo na mokolo ya feti na biso!
4 For it is a statute for Israel, a decree given by the God of Jacob.
Pamba te ezali mobeko mpo na Isalaele, mpe mokano ya Nzambe ya Jakobi.
5 He issued it as a regulation in Joseph when he went against the land of Egypt, where I heard a voice that I did not recognize:
Atiaki yango lokola mobeko mpo na Jozefi tango abundisaki Ejipito. Nazali koyoka lokota oyo nayebi te:
6 “I removed the burden from his shoulder; his hands were freed from holding the basket.
« Nalongolaki mokumba oyo ezalaki na mapeka na ye, mpe maboko na ye elongwaki na bowumbu ya kosimba bitunga. »
7 In your distress you called out, and I helped you; I answered you from a dark thundercloud. I tested you at the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
Tango ozalaki koganga mpo na pasi, nakangolaki yo, nayanolaki yo kati na kake epai wapi nabombamaki, namekaki yo pembeni ya mayi ya Meriba.
8 Listen, my people, for I will warn you, Israel, if you would only listen to me!
Bato na ngai, boyoka ngai! Mpe nakokebisa bino. Ah Isalaele, soki kaka ozalaki koyokela ngai!
9 There must be no foreign god among you; you must not worship any foreign god.
Okozala na nzambe ya mopaya te kati na yo, okogumbamela nzambe mosusu te, longola kaka ngai!
10 I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na yo, oyo abimisaki yo na Ejipito; fungola malamu monoko na yo, mpe nakotondisa yango.
11 But my people did not listen to my words; Israel did not obey me.
Kasi bato na ngai bayokaki mongongo na ngai te, Isalaele aboyaki kotosa ngai.
12 So I gave them over to their own stubborn way so that they might do what seemed right to them.
Mpo na yango, natikaki bango kotambola kolanda baposa ya mitema makasi na bango; mpe balandaki makanisi na bango.
13 Oh, that my people would listen to me; oh, that my people would walk in my paths.
Soki bato na ngai bazalaki koyokela ngai, soki Isalaele azalaki kolanda banzela na ngai,
14 Then I would quickly subdue their enemies and turn my hand against their oppressors.
nalingaki mbala moko koyokisa banguna na bango soni mpe kobundisa bayini na bango.
15 May those who hate Yahweh cringe in fear before him! May they be humiliated forever.
Mpe bato oyo bayinaka Yawe balingaki komikitisa liboso na Ye, mpe etumbu na bango elingaki kowumela mpo na libela.
16 I would feed Israel with the finest wheat; I would satisfy you with honey out of the rock.”
Yawe alingaki koleisa Isalaele bilei ya kitoko mpe kotondisa bango na mafuta ya nzoyi.
