Banzembo 111

1 Bokumisa Yawe! Nakokumisa Yawe na motema na ngai mobimba kati na likita ya bato ya sembo mpe kati na mayangani.

Praise Yah. I will praise Yhwh with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

2 Yawe asalaka makambo minene; bato nyonso oyo balingaka yango bakanisaka yango.

The works of Yhwh are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

3 Misala na Ye emonisaka nkembo mpe lokumu na Ye, mpe bosembo na Ye ewumelaka libela na libela.

His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 Alingaka ete bakanisa bikamwa na Ye. Yawe atondi na mawa mpe atalisaka ngolu na Ye.

He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: Yhwh is gracious and full of compassion.

5 Apesaka bato oyo batosaka Ye bilei; akanisaka Boyokani na Ye tango nyonso.

He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

6 Amonisaki nguya na Ye epai ya bato na Ye na nzela ya misala na Ye tango apesaki bango libula ya bato ya bikolo mosusu.

He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

7 Misala na Ye nyonso elakisaka boyengebene mpe bosembo na Ye; mibeko na Ye nyonso ebongi na kondima yango.

The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.

8 Epesama mpo na libela, mpe esengeli kotosa yango na bosembo mpe na bosolo.

They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.

9 Akangolaki bato na Ye, mpe asalaki Boyokani ya libela elongo na bango. Azali Nzambe Mosantu mpe Nzambe ya somo.

He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

10 Kotosa Yawe ezali mosisa ya bwanya; bato nyonso oyo batosaka Yawe bazali na mayele ya peto. Lokumu ya Yawe ezali ya libela na libela.

The fear of Yhwh is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
