Banzembo 142

1 Nzembo ya Davidi. Maloba na ye tango azalaki kati na ebombamelo ya mabanga. Na mongongo makasi, nazali koganga epai na Yawe; na mongongo makasi, nazali kobondela Yawe.

The lernyng of Dauid; `his preier, `whanne he was in the denne. With my vois Y criede to the Lord; with my vois Y preiede hertli to the Lord.

2 Natalisi likambo na ngai liboso na Ye, natandi pasi na ngai liboso na Ye.

I schede out my preier in his siyt; and Y pronounce my tribulacioun bifor him.

3 Soki molimo na ngai elembi kati na ngai, Yo oyebi epai nazali kokende. Batieli ngai motambo na nzela oyo nazali kotambola.

While my spirit failith of me; and thou hast knowe my pathis. In this weie in which Y yede; proude men hidden a snare to me.

4 Bwaka miso na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali mpe tala! Moto ata moko te ayebi ngai lisusu, nazali lisusu na ekimelo te, moto ata moko te azali komitungisa na tina na ngai!

I bihelde to the riyt side, and Y siy; and noon was that knew me. Fliyt perischide fro me; and noon is that sekith my soule.

5 Yawe, nagangi epai na Yo! Nalobi: « Ozali ebombamelo na ngai, libula na ngai kati na mokili ya bato ya bomoi! »

Lord, Y criede to thee, Y seide, Thou art myn hope; my part in the lond of lyueris.

6 Yoka koganga na ngai, pamba te nazali na pasi makasi! Kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya banyokoli na ngai, pamba te baleki ngai na makasi.

Yyue thou tent to my biseching; for Y am maad low ful greetli. Delyuere thou me fro hem that pursuen me; for thei ben coumfortid on me.

7 Bimisa ngai na boloko mpo ete nasanzola Kombo na Yo! Bato ya sembo bakoya kozingela ngai sima na Yo kosalela ngai bolamu.

Lede my soule out of keping to knouleche to thi name; iust men abiden me, til thou yelde to me.
