< Psalms 41 >
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.
Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi. Lusakumunu kuidi mutu wowo thaluꞌandi yidi kuidi mutu wulebakana, Yave weti ku nkula mu thangu yi ziphasi.
2 Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.
Yave wela kunkeba ayi wela tanina luzingu luandi; wela kunsakumuna va ntoto ayi kalendi kunyekula ko mu luzolo lu bobo beti kunlenda;
3 Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.
Yave wela kunkindisa va mfulu andi yi kimbevo. Ngeyo wela kumbelusa va mfulu andi yi kimbevo.
4 I — I said, 'O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,'
Ndituba: “A Yave, wumboni kiadi. Wumbelusa bila kuidi ngeyo ndivodidi masumu.”
5 Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth — his name hath perished!
Bambeni ziama zilembo tubi mambu mu diela dimbimbi mu diambu diama: “Thangu mbi kela fua ayi dizina diandi diela lalakana e?”
6 And if he came to see — vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out — at the street he speaketh.
yoso thangu mutu kizidi mu kuthala; mutu wowo wuntubanga luvunu. Ntimꞌandi wufulukidi mambu ma mvuezolo; buna wuntotukanga ku nganda ayi wunyolukilanga mawu.
7 All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:
Bambeni ziama zioso zilembo niunguta va kimosi mu diambu diama. Balembo yindula mambimbi mu diambu diama, balembo tubi:
8 A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.
“Nsongo wumbimbi wumbuididi. Kalendi buela vumbuka ko va buangu kioki kalambididi.”
9 Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,
Ka diambu ko nkundi ama wu luzolo, wowo ndibedi silanga diana, wubedi kabulanga dipha diama, wumbalumukini.
10 And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.
Vayi ngeyo Yave, wumboni kiadi wuthedimisa. Muingi ndiba vutudila landi.
11 By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.
Nzebi ti ngeyo wunyangalalanga mu minu; mu diambu di mbeni ama kabika kundunga.
12 As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.
Mu bufuana kuama, ngeyo wutsimba; wuthedimisa mu zithangu zioso va tuala meso maku.
13 Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age — and unto the age. Amen and Amen.
Nzitusu wuba kuidi Yave, Nzambi yi Iseli, mu thangu yi kayimani.
