Banzembo 130

1 Nzembo ya mobembo mpo na kokende na Ndako ya Nkolo. Nkolo, nazali kobelela Yo wuta na mozindo ya pasi!

A song of degrees. Out of the deepe places haue I called vnto thee, O Lord.

2 Nkolo, yoka ngai! Yoka mabondeli na ngai!

Lord, heare my voyce: let thine eares attend to the voyce of my prayers.

3 Yawe, soki obosanaka masumu te, Nkolo, nani akokaki kotelema?

If thou, O Lord, straightly markest iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

4 Kasi bolimbisi ezali epai na Yo, yango wana basengeli kotosa Yo.

But mercie is with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

5 Na motema na ngai mobimba, nazali na elikya kati na Yawe, nazali penza na elikya; nazali kozela maloba na Ye.

I haue waited on the Lord: my soule hath waited, and I haue trusted in his worde.

6 Nazali na elikya kati na Nkolo koleka kutu ndenge mokengeli azelaka kotana ya tongo, koleka penza ndenge mokengeli azelaka kotana ya tongo.

My soule waiteth on the Lord more then the morning watch watcheth for the morning.

7 Isalaele, tia elikya kati na Yawe, pamba te azali bolingo, mpe kokangolama ya kokoka ezali elongo na Ye.

Let Israel waite on the Lord: for with the Lord is mercie, and with him is great redemption.

8 Ye nde akokangola Isalaele na bambeba na yango nyonso.

And he shall redeeme Israel from all his iniquities.
