Psalms 9
1 For the chief musician; set to Muth Labben style. A psalm of David. I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart; I will tell about all your marvelous deeds.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi. Nakosanzola Yawe na motema na ngai mobimba, nakotatola misala minene na Yo nyonso.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing praise to your name, Most High!
Nakozala na esengo mpe nakosepela kati na Yo, nakoyemba mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo-Oyo-Oleki-Likolo.
3 When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish before you.
Banguna na ngai bazongaka sima, bakweyaka mpe balimwaka liboso na Yo.
4 For you have defended my just cause; you sit on your throne, a righteous judge!
Pamba te, okataki likambo na ngai mpe olongisaki ngai, ovandi na Kiti ya Bokonzi lokola Mosambisi ya sembo.
5 You rebuked the nations; you have destroyed the wicked; you have blotted out their name forever and ever.
Opamelaki bikolo mpe obomaki moto mabe, olimwisaki kombo na bango mpo na libela.
6 The enemy crumbled like ruins when you overthrew their cities. All remembrance of them has perished.
Banguna na ngai balimwa mpo na libela; opanzaki bingumba na bango kino bakanisa bango lisusu te.
7 But Yahweh remains forever; he has established his throne for justice.
Yawe akonzaka mpo na libela, atia Kiti na Ye ya Bokonzi mpo na kokata makambo ya bato.
8 He will judge the world with righteousness, and he will execute judgment for the nations with fairness.
Akonzaka mokili na bosembo, akataka makambo ya bato na alima.
9 Yahweh also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
Yawe azali ebombamelo mpo na bato oyo bazali konyokolama, mpe ndako makasi mpo na tango ya pasi.
10 Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Yahweh, do not abandon those who seek you.
Bato oyo bayebi Kombo na Yo batiaka elikya na bango kati na Yo; pamba te, Yo Yawe, osundolaka te bato oyo balukaka Yo.
11 Sing praises to Yahweh, who rules in Zion; tell the nations what he has done.
Boyembela Yawe oyo avandaka kati na Siona banzembo ya masanzoli; bopanza sango ya misala na Ye kati na bikolo.
12 For the God who avenges bloodshed remembers; he does not forget the cry of the oppressed.
Pamba te Yawe azongisaka mabe na mabe mpo na makila oyo esopani, akanisaka koganga ya banyokolami.
13 Have mercy on me, Yahweh; see how I am oppressed by those who hate me, you who can snatch me from the gates of death.
Yawe, yokela ngai mawa, tala ndenge nini bayini na ngai bazali konyokola ngai, mpe kangola ngai wuta na bikuke ya kufa;
14 Oh, that I might proclaim all your praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in your salvation!
mpo ete napanza sango ya lokumu na Yo kati na bikuke ya Siona, mboka kitoko, mpe nasepela na lobiko na Yo kuna.
15 The nations have sunk down into the pit that they made; their feet are caught in the net that they hid.
Bapagano bakweyi na libulu oyo batimolaki, makolo na bango ekangami na mitambo oyo bango moko basalaki.
16 Yahweh has made himself known; he has executed judgment; the wicked is ensnared by his own actions. (Selah)
Yawe amilakisi na nzela ya misala na Ye ya bosembo; bato mabe bakangami na mitambo oyo bango moko basalaki.
Bato mabe, bikolo nyonso, oyo bakanisaka Nzambe te, bakokende na mboka ya bakufi. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the needy will not always be forgotten, nor will the hope of the oppressed be forever dashed.
Kasi Nzambe akotikala te kobosana mobola, mpe elikya ya banyokolami ekotikala seko na seko.
19 Arise, Yahweh; do not let man win against you; may the nations be judged in your sight.
Yawe, telema! Tika ete moto alonga te; tika ete bapagano basamba liboso na Yo!
20 Terrify them, Yahweh; may the nations know that they are mere men. (Selah)
Yawe, tika ete somo ekanga bango; tika ete bapagano bayeba ete bazali na bango kaka bato!
