Psalms 60
1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A teaching poem by David, when he fought with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah, and Joab returned, and killed twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. God, you have rejected us. You have broken us down. You have been angry. Restore us, again.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki ndenge moko na « Lisi ya litatoli. » Nzembo ya Davidi mpo na koteya bato. Ayembaki yango tango abundisaki bato ya Siri ya Mezopotami mpe bato ya Siri ya Tsoba, mpe tango Joabi azongaki, sima na ye kolonga bato nkoto zomi na mibale ya Edomi, na bitumba kati na Lubwaku ya Mungwa. Oh Nzambe, obwakaki mpe opanzaki biso, osilikaki penza. Sik’oyo, zongisa biso.
2 You have made the land tremble. You have torn it. Mend its fractures, for it quakes.
Solo, oningisaki mabele mpe obukaki yango. Bamba madusu na yango, pamba te ekomi koningana.
3 You have shown your people hard things. You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.
Omonisaki bato na Yo pasi makasi, omelisaki biso vino oyo elangwisaka.
4 You have given a banner to those who fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)
Opesaki na bato oyo batosaka Yo bendele mpo na koyebisa bango ete bakima liboso ya batolotolo ya banguna.
5 So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.
Mpo ete balingami na Yo bakangolama, bikisa na nguya ya loboko na Yo ya mobali, mpe yanola biso! Yanola ngai!
6 God has spoken from his sanctuary: “I will triumph. I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
Nzambe alobaki kati na Esika na Ye ya bule: « Nakolonga! Nakokabola Sishemi mpe nakomeka molayi ya lubwaku ya Sukoti.
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.
Galadi ezali ya ngai, Manase mpe ezali ya ngai; Efrayimi ezali ekoti na ngai ya ebende, mpe Yuda ezali lingenda na ngai ya bokonzi.
8 Moab is my wash basin. I will throw my sandal on Edom. I shout in triumph over Philistia.”
Moabi ezali sani monene oyo nasukolelaka, Edomi ezali esika oyo nabwakaka sandale na ngai. Mpo na Filisitia, nabetaka milolo ya elonga. »
9 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who has led me to Edom?
Nani akomema ngai kino na engumba oyo batonga makasi? Nani akotambolisa ngai kino na Edomi?
10 Haven’t you, God, rejected us? You don’t go out with our armies, God.
Ezali Yo te, Nzambe oyo obwakaki biso, Nzambe oyo ozalaki lisusu te kokende bitumba elongo na mampinga na biso?
11 Give us help against the adversary, for the help of man is vain.
Yaka kosunga biso, kangola biso liboso ya moyini; pamba te lisungi ya bato ezali pamba.
12 Through God we will do valiantly, for it is he who will tread down our adversaries.
Nzokande, elongo na Nzambe, tokosala makambo minene mpe ya kokamwa; ezali Ye nde akonyata banguna na biso.
