Psalms 7
1 'The Erring One,' by David, that he sung to Jehovah concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah, my God, in Thee I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya mawa oyo Davidi ayembelaki Yawe na tina na Kushi, moto ya libota ya Benjame. Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, nabombamaka kati na Yo; bikisa ngai mpe kangola ngai liboso ya bato nyonso oyo balukaka koboma ngai.
2 Lest he tear as a lion my soul, Rending, and there is no deliverer.
Soki te, bakopasola ngai lokola nkosi mpe bakokata ngai na biteni, mpe moto akozala te mpo na kosunga ngai.
3 O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,
Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, soki nasalaki makambo oyo bazali kopamela ngai mpo na yango, mpe soki ezali na mabe na maboko na ngai,
4 If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary without cause,
soki nasalaki moninga na ngai mabe, soki nabotolaki na makasi mpe kaka na pamba, biloko ya moyini na ngai;
5 An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh, And treadeth down to the earth my life, And my honour placeth in the dust. (Selah)
wana tika ete monguna na ngai alanda mpe akanga ngai, tika ete asakanela bomoi na ngai mpe abebisa lokumu na ngai.
6 Rise, O Jehovah, in Thine anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of mine adversaries, And awake Thou for me: Judgment Thou hast commanded:
Yawe, telema na kanda na Yo, telemela kotomboka ya banguna na ngai. Nzambe na ngai, telema, kata likambo na ngai.
7 And a company of peoples compass Thee, And over it on high turn Thou back,
Tika ete bikolo esangana zingazinga na Yo, kasi Yo, konza bango wuta na Kiti na Yo ya Bokonzi.
8 Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah, According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity on me,
Tika ete Yawe asambisa bikolo. Yawe, longisa ngai kolanda bosembo na ngai, kolanda bozangi pamela na ngai, Yo-Oyo-Oleki-Likolo.
9 Let, I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked, And establish Thou the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.
Yo Nzambe ya sembo oyo ososolaka mozindo ya mayele mpe ya mitema, sukisa kanza ya bato mabe mpe yikisa moto ya sembo mpiko.
10 My shield [is] on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!
Nzambe-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo azali nguba na ngai, abikisaka bato ya sembo.
11 God [is] a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all times.
Nzambe azali Mosambisi ya sembo, asilikaka mikolo nyonso.
12 If [one] turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath trodden — He prepareth it,
Soki alembisi kanda na Ye te, akopelisa minu ya mopanga na Ye, akobongisa mpe akobeta tolotolo na Ye.
13 Yea, for him He hath prepared Instruments of death, His arrows for burning pursuers He maketh.
Abongisaka bibundeli oyo ebomaka mpe asalaka ete makonga na Ye ekoma kozikisa.
14 Lo, he travaileth [with] iniquity, And he hath conceived perverseness, And hath brought forth falsehood.
Moto nyonso oyo abongisaka kosala mabe alukaka ndenge nini koyokisa bato pasi mpe abebisaka boyokani;
15 A pit he hath prepared, and he diggeth it, And he falleth into a ditch he maketh.
atimolaka libulu, kasi ye moko nde akweyaka kati na yango.
16 Return doth his perverseness on his head, And on his crown his violence cometh down.
Pasi oyo ayokisaka bato ezongelaka ye moko, mpe mabe na ye ekweyaka na moto na ye moko.
17 I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness, And praise the name of Jehovah Most High!
Nakokumisa Yawe mpo na bosembo na Ye, mpe nakosanzola Yawe-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo na banzembo.
