Psalms 22
1 To the Overseer, on 'The Hind of the Morning.' — A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation, The words of my roaring?
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi, ya koyemba lokola nzembo na kombo « Mboloko ya tongo. » Nzambe na ngai, Nzambe na ngai, mpo na nini osundoli ngai? Mpo na nini otelemi mosika? Mpo na nini ozali kobikisa ngai te? Mpo na nini ozali koyoka te koganga na ngai?
2 My God, I call by day, and Thou answerest not, And by night, and there is no silence to me.
Nzambe na ngai, na moyi, nabeleli Yo, kasi oyanoli ngai te; na butu, nabeleli lisusu, mpe natikali kovanda nye te.
3 And Thou [art] holy, Sitting — the Praise of Israel.
Nzokande, ozali Mosantu, ovandaka na Kiti na Yo ya Bokonzi, kati na masanzoli ya Isalaele.
4 In Thee did our fathers trust — they trusted, And Thou dost deliver them.
Batata na biso batiaki elikya na bango kati na Yo, bamipesaki epai na Yo, mpe okangolaki bango.
5 Unto Thee they cried, and were delivered, In Thee they trusted, and were not ashamed.
Bagangaki epai na Yo, mpe Yo okangolaki bango; batiaki elikya na bango kati na Yo mpe bayokisamaki soni te.
6 And I [am] a worm, and no man, A reproach of man, and despised of the people.
Nazali lisusu moto te, kasi mutsopi; bato nyonso bazali kofinga mpe kotiola ngai.
7 All beholding me do mock at me, They make free with the lip — shake the head,
Bato nyonso oyo bazali komona ngai bazali koseka ngai, bazali kokamwa, koningisa mito mpe koloba:
8 'Roll unto Jehovah, He doth deliver him, He doth deliver him, for he delighted in him.'
« Atiaka motema na ye epai na Yawe; tika ete Yawe abikisa ye! Tika ete Yawe akangola ye, pamba te asepelaka na Ye! »
9 For thou [art] He bringing me forth from the womb, Causing me to trust, On the breasts of my mother.
Solo, Yawe, obimisaki ngai na libumu ya mama na ngai, obatelaki ngai na kimia na tolo na ye.
10 On Thee I have been cast from the womb, From the belly of my mother Thou [art] my God.
Wuta mbotama na ngai, batikaki ngai na maboko na Yo; wuta libumu ya mama na ngai, ozali Nzambe na ngai.
11 Be not far from me, For adversity is near, for there is no helper.
Kozala mosika na ngai te, pamba te pasi ekomi pene mpe nazangi moto oyo akosunga ngai.
12 Many bulls have surrounded me, Mighty ones of Bashan have compassed me,
Banguna na ngai bazingeli ngai lokola lisanga ya bangombe ya mibali, bazingeli ngai lokola banyama mabe oyo ezalaka na Bashani;
13 They have opened against me their mouth, A lion tearing and roaring.
mpe bafungoleli ngai makasi minoko na bango lokola nkosi oyo etomboki mpe ezali kolia nyama.
14 As waters I have been poured out, And separated themselves have all my bones, My heart hath been like wax, It is melted in the midst of my bowels.
Nakomi lokola mayi oyo ezali kosopana, mpe mikuwa na ngai nyonso ekabwani; motema na ngai ekomi lokola mafuta oyo ezali konyangwama kati na ngai.
15 Dried up as an earthen vessel is my power, And my tongue is cleaving to my jaws.
Makasi na ngai ekawuki lokola potopoto, mpe nazali kokoka lisusu koloba te; otie ngai pembeni ya lilita.
16 And to the dust of death thou appointest me, For surrounded me have dogs, A company of evil doers have compassed me, Piercing my hands and my feet.
Bambwa ezingeli ngai, ngulupa ya bato mabe bayei kobundisa ngai, bazali kotambola zingazinga na ngai; bakangi maboko mpe makolo na ngai na basinga.
17 I count all my bones — they look expectingly, They look upon me,
Nakoki sik’oyo kotanga ata mikuwa na ngai nyonso; kasi bato bazali kotala mpe koseka ngai,
18 They apportion my garments to themselves, And for my clothing they cause a lot to fall.
bazali kokabola bilamba na ngai mpe kobeta zeke mpo na nzambala na ngai.
19 And Thou, O Jehovah, be not far off, O my strength, to help me haste.
Kasi Yo, Yawe, kozala mosika te! Ozali makasi na ngai; yaka noki kosunga ngai.
20 Deliver from the sword my soul, From the paw of a dog mine only one.
Bikisa bomoi na ngai liboso ya mopanga, mpe kangola yango wuta na manzaka ya bambwa.
21 Save me from the mouth of a lion: — And — from the horns of the high places Thou hast answered me!
Bikisa ngai wuta na monoko ya nkosi mpe na maseke ya mpakasa.
22 I declare Thy name to my brethren, In the midst of the assembly I praise Thee.
Nakotatola Kombo na Yo epai ya bandeko na ngai, mpe nakokumisa Yo kati na mayangani.
23 Ye who fear Jehovah, praise ye Him, All the seed of Jacob, honour ye Him, And be afraid of Him, all ye seed of Israel.
Bino bato oyo botosaka Yawe, bosanzola Ye! Bino nyonso bana ya Jakobi, bopesa Ye lokumu! Bino nyonso bana ya Isalaele, botosa Ye!
24 For He hath not despised, nor abominated, The affliction of the afflicted, Nor hath He hidden His face from him, And in his crying unto Him He heareth.
Pamba te Yawe atiolaki te mpe abwakaki te mobola; apesaka ye mokongo te mpe ayokaka ye tango asengaka lisungi.
25 Of Thee my praise [is] in the great assembly. My vows I complete before His fearers.
Na ngolu na Yo, nakumisaka Yo kati na mayangani, nakokisaka bandayi na ngai na miso ya bato oyo batosaka Yo.
26 The humble do eat and are satisfied, Praise Jehovah do those seeking Him, Your heart doth live for ever.
Babola bakolia mpe bakotonda; bato oyo balukaka Yawe bakosanzola Ye. Tika ete bozala na bomoi libela na libela.
27 Remember and return unto Jehovah, Do all ends of the earth, And before Thee bow themselves, Do all families of the nations,
Mokili mobimba ekokanisa Yawe, ekomipesa epai na Ye; mpe bituka nyonso ya bikolo ekogumbama liboso na Ye.
28 For to Jehovah [is] the kingdom, And He is ruling among nations.
Pamba te Yawe azali Mokonzi, azali kokonza bikolo.
29 And the fat ones of earth have eaten, And they bow themselves, Before Him bow do all going down to dust, And he [who] hath not revived his soul.
Bazwi nyonso ya mokili bakolia mpe bakogumbamela Ye; bato nyonso oyo bazali kokende na kunda, ba-oyo bakoki te komibatela na bomoi, bakogumbama liboso na Ye.
30 A seed doth serve Him, It is declared of the Lord to the generation.
Bakitani na bango bakosalela Yawe mpe bakopanza sango na Ye epai ya ekeke oyo ekoya na sima;
31 They come and declare His righteousness, To a people that is borne, that He hath made!
bakosakola misala ya bosembo na Ye, epai ya bato oyo bakobotama.
