Banzembo 65
1 Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi. Mpo na Yo Nzambe, bozangi makelele ezali lokumu, kati na Siona; mpe mpo na Yo, ndayi ekokokisama.
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. A song. Praise waits for you, God, in Zion. Vows shall be performed to you.
2 Yo oyo oyokaka mabondeli, bato nyonso bakoya epai na Yo.
You who hear prayer, all men will come to you.
3 Kilo ya bambeba eleki makasi mpo na ngai; kasi Yo, olimbisaka masumu na biso.
Sins overwhelmed me, but you atoned for our transgressions.
4 Esengo na moto oyo oponi mpe obulisi mpo ete avanda kati na lopango na Yo. Tokotonda na bolamu ya Ndako na Yo, Tempelo na Yo ya bule.
Blessed is the one whom you choose and cause to come near, that he may live in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.
5 Nzambe Mobikisi na biso, oyanolaka biso na bosembo, na nzela ya biloko ya somo; Ozali elikya ya mokili mobimba mpe ya bibale minene.
By awesome deeds of righteousness, you answer us, God of our salvation. You who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, of those who are far away on the sea.
6 Alendisaka bangomba, na nguya na Ye; atondi na mpiko.
By your power, you form the mountains, having armed yourself with strength.
7 Akitisaka makelele ya bibale minene, makelele ya bambonge na yango mpe makelele ya bikolo.
You still the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations.
8 Bato oyo bavandaka na basuka ya mokili babangaka tango bamonaka bikamwa na Yo; osalaka ete este mpe weste eganga na esengo.
They also who dwell in faraway places are afraid at your wonders. You call the morning’s dawn and the evening with songs of joy.
9 Opambolaka mabele, ofulukisaka yango, otondisaka yango na bozwi. Otondisaka moluka ya Nzambe na mayi, obongiselaka bato ble, pamba te otondisaka mayi mpo na yango.
You visit the earth, and water it. You greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. You provide them grain, for so you have ordained it.
10 Olekisaka mayi kati na mikala, okweyisaka mipiku ya mabele, osopelaka mabele mayi mpe opambolaka milona.
You drench its furrows. You level its ridges. You soften it with showers. You bless it with a crop.
11 Opambolaka mobu na bolamu na Yo, mpe banzela mike oyo olekelaka ebotaka ebele.
You crown the year with your bounty. Your carts overflow with abundance.
12 Bilanga ya esobe etondaka na bilei, mpe bangomba mike etondaka na esengo.
The wilderness grasslands overflow. The hills are clothed with gladness.
13 Bilanga etondaka na bameme mpe bantaba; mabwaku etondaka na ble, egangaka na esengo mpe eyembaka.
The pastures are covered with flocks. The valleys also are clothed with grain. They shout for joy! They also sing.
