Psalms 52
1 To the Overseer. — An instruction, by David, in the coming in of Doeg the Edomite, and he declareth to Saul, and saith to him, 'David came in unto the house of Ahimelech.' What, boasteth thou in evil, O mighty one? The kindness of God [is] all the day.
Nzembo ya Davidi. Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki tango Doegi, moto ya Edomi, akendeki koyebisa Saulo ete Davidi akoti na ndako ya Ayimeleki. Yo elombe, mpo na nini ozali komikumisa na tina na mabe? Bolingo ya Nzambe emonanaka mikolo nyonso.
2 Mischiefs doth thy tongue devise, Like a sharp razor, working deceit.
Yo oyo otambolaka na lokuta, lolemo na yo esalaka mabongisi ya libebi, ekosaka lokola mbeli bapelisa malamu.
3 Thou hast loved evil rather than good, Lying, than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
Olingaka mabe koleka bolamu, lokuta koleka koloba bosolo.
4 Thou hast loved all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
Oh lolemo ya lokuta, olingaka maloba nyonso oyo epanzaka.
5 Also — God doth break thee down for ever, Taketh thee, and pulleth thee out of the tent, And He hath uprooted thee Out of the land of the living. (Selah)
Solo, Ye moko Nzambe akobebisa yo mpo na libela, akokanga yo kati na ndako na yo, akobwaka yo libanda mpe akopikola yo na mokili ya bato ya bomoi.
6 And the righteous see, And fear, and laugh at him.
Bato ya sembo bakomona mpe bakokoma na somo, bakotiola ye na maloba oyo:
7 'Lo, the man who maketh not God his strong place, And trusteth in the abundance of his riches, He is strong in his mischiefs.'
« Tala moto oyo azalaki te kozwa Nzambe lokola ebombamelo na ye, azalaki kotiela bozwi na ye motema, mpe kobakisa makasi na ye na nzela ya kobebisa bato mosusu. »
8 And I, as a green olive in the house of God, I have trusted in the kindness of God, To the age and for ever,
Kasi ngai, kati na Ndako na Yo, nazali lokola nzete ya olive oyo etondi na makasa ya mobesu; natiaka tango nyonso elikya na ngai kati na bolingo monene ya Nzambe, mpo na libela.
9 I thank Thee to the age, because Thou hast done [it], And I wait [on] Thy name for [it is] good before Thy saints!
Nakosanzola Yo mikolo nyonso, mpo na oyo osali; mpe nazalaka na elikya kati na Kombo na Yo, pamba te ozali malamu mpo na bayengebene na Yo.
