Ezayi 12

1 Na mokolo wana, okoloba: « Oh Yawe, nazali kosanzola Yo, pamba te ata osilikelaki ngai, kanda na Yo elongwaki likolo na ngai mpe obondisaki ngai!

And you will say in that day: “I will confess to you, O Lord, because you have been angry with me; but your fury has been turned away, and you have consoled me.

2 Solo, Nzambe azali lobiko na ngai; nakotia elikya na ngai epai na Ye mpe nakobanga lisusu te. Nkolo Yawe azali makasi mpe nguya na ngai; azali lobiko na ngai. »

Behold, God is my savior, I will act faithfully, and I will not be afraid. For the Lord is my strength and my praise, and he has become my salvation.”

3 Yango wana, botoka mayi na esengo na etima ya lobiko.

You will draw water with gladness from the fountains of the Savior.

4 Na mokolo wana bokoloba: « Bosanzola Yawe, bobelela Kombo na Ye, bosakola misala na Ye kati na bikolo mpe botatola ete Kombo na Ye ezali likolo na nyonso.

And you will say in that day: “Confess the Lord, and invoke his name! Make his plans known among the peoples! Remember that his name is exalted!

5 Boyemba loyembo mpo na Yawe, pamba te asali makambo ya kokamwa. Tika ete mokili mobimba eyeba yango!

Sing to the Lord, for he has acted magnificently! Announce it to the whole world!

6 Bino bato ya Siona, bobeta milolo mpe boyemba loyembo na esengo, pamba te Mosantu ya Isalaele azali monene kati na bino! »

Exult and give praise, O habitation of Zion! For the Great One, the Holy One of Israel, is in your midst!”
