Banzembo 148
1 Bokumisa Yawe! Bokumisa Yawe wuta na likolo, bokumisa Ye na bisika oyo eleki likolo.
Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heauen: prayse ye him in the high places.
2 Bokumisa Ye, bino ba-anjelu na Ye nyonso; bokumisa Ye, bino mampinga na Ye nyonso;
Prayse ye him, all ye his Angels: praise him, all his armie.
3 bokumisa Ye, bino moyi mpe sanza; bokumisa Ye, bino minzoto nyonso oyo engengaka;
Prayse ye him, sunne and moone: prayse ye him all bright starres.
4 bokumisa Ye, bino oyo boleki likolo kati na likolo, mpe bino mayi oyo bozali na likolo!
Prayse ye him, heauens of heauens, and waters, that be aboue the heauens.
5 Tika ete ekumisa Kombo ya Yawe! Pamba te apesaki mitindo, mpe ekelamaki.
Let them prayse the Name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
6 Atiaki yango mpo na libela; apesaki mibeko oyo ekobongwana te.
And he hath established them for euer and euer: he hath made an ordinance, which shall not passe.
7 Bokumisa Yawe wuta na mokili, ezala bilima ya mayi to mozindo nyonso,
Prayse ye the Lord from the earth, ye dragons and all depths:
8 ezala moto to mvula ya mabanga, ezala mvula ya pembe to londende, ezala mopepe makasi oyo ekokisaka liloba na Ye;
Fire and hayle, snowe and vapours, stormie winde, which execute his worde:
9 ezala bangomba milayi to bangomba mikuse, ezala banzete oyo ebotaka bambuma to banzete ya sedele,
Mountaines and all hils, fruitfull trees and all ceders:
10 ezala banyama ya zamba to bibwele nyonso, ezala bikelamu oyo etambolaka na libumu to bandeke,
Beasts and all cattell, creeping things and fethered foules:
11 ezala bakonzi ya mabele to bikolo nyonso, ezala bakambi to batambolisi nyonso ya mokili,
Kings of the earth and all people, princes and all iudges of the worlde:
12 ezala bilenge mibali to bilenge basi, ezala bampaka to bana mike!
Yong men and maidens, also olde men and children:
13 Tika ete bakumisa Kombo ya Yawe! Pamba te Ye moko kaka nde aleki likolo; nkembo na Ye eleki mabele mpe likolo.
Let them prayse the Name of the Lord: for his Name onely is to be exalted, and his prayse aboue the earth and the heauens.
14 Abongisi elombe mokangoli mpo na bato na Ye! Ezali likambo oyo bayengebene na Ye nyonso, bana nyonso ya Isalaele, bato oyo balingaka Ye, basengeli kokumisa Yawe mpo na yango. Bokumisa Yawe!
For he hath exalted the horne of his people, which is a prayse for all his Saintes, euen for the children of Israel, a people that is neere vnto him. Prayse ye the Lord.
