Banzembo 110

1 Nzembo ya Davidi. Maloba ya Yawe epai ya nkolo na ngai: « Vanda na ngambo ya loboko na Ngai ya mobali kino nakomisa banguna na yo enyatelo makolo na yo. »

A psalm of David. Yahweh says to my master, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2 Wuta na Siona, Yawe akosala ete nguya na yo ya bokonzi ekende mosika, mpe okokonza kati na banguna na Yo.

Yahweh will hold out the scepter of your strength from Zion; rule among your enemies.

3 Na mokolo oyo okotanda basoda na yo na molongo mpo na bitumba, bato na yo bakotonda na mpiko, bilenge basoda na yo nyonso bakoya na lombangu epai na yo ndenge mamwe ebimaka na tongo.

Your people will follow you in holy garments of their own free will on the day of your power; from the womb of the dawn your youth will be to you like the dew.

4 Yawe alapaki ndayi oyo, akobongola maloba na Ye te: « Ozali Nganga-Nzambe mpo na libela kolanda molongo ya Melishisedeki! »

Yahweh has sworn, and will not change: “You are a priest forever, after the manner of Melchizedek.”

5 Nkolo azali na ngambo ya loboko na yo ya mobali, akopanza bakonzi na mokolo ya kanda na Ye.

The Lord is at your right hand. He will kill kings on the day of his anger.

6 Akopesa bikolo etumbu: bikolo nyonso ekotonda na bibembe, mpe akonyata bakambi kati na mokili mobimba.

He will judge the nations; he will fill the battlegrounds with dead bodies; he will kill the leaders in many countries.

7 Na nzela, mokonzi amelaka mayi na mwa moluka; yango wana atombolaka moto.

He will drink of the brook along the road, and then he will lift his head up high after victory.
