Psalms 61

1 To the chief Musician upon Neginah, [A Psalm] of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki na lindanda. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe, yoka koganga na ngai, yoka na bokebi losambo na ngai.

2 From the end of the earth will I cry to thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock [that] is higher than I.

Wuta na suka ya mokili, nazali kobelela Yo, motema na ngai ebukani! Mema ngai na libanga oyo eleki likolo epai wapi nakokoka te kokoma ngai moko.

3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, [and] a strong tower from the enemy.

Pamba te, ozali ebombamelo na ngai, ndako molayi batonga makasi, liboso ya banguna na ngai.

4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

Posa ya motema na ngai ezali: kovanda tango nyonso kati na Ndako na Yo mpe kozwa ebombamelo na se ya mapapu na Yo.

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given [me] the heritage of those that fear thy name.

Pamba te Yo Nzambe, oyokaki bandayi na ngai, opesaki ngai libula ya bato oyo batosaka Kombo na Yo.

6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: [and] his years as many generations.

Pesa na mokonzi na biso bomoi molayi; tika ete awumela na bomoi.

7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, [which] may preserve him.

Tika ete awumela na bokonzi libela na libela liboso ya Nzambe! Bolingo mpe boyengebene na Yo ekobatela ye.

8 So will I sing praise to thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Boye, nakoyemba mikolo nyonso mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo, mpe nakokokisa bandayi na ngai mokolo na mokolo.
