< Banzembo 67 >
1 Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi: nzembo ya koyemba na lindanda. Loyembo. Tika ete Nzambe asalela biso ngolu mpe apambola biso, tika ete angengisela biso elongi na Ye;
“To the chief musician on Neginoth, a psalm or song.” May God be gracious unto us, and bless us; may he cause his face to shine upon us. (Selah)
2 mpo ete toyeba nzela na Yo kati na mokili, mpe lobiko na Yo kati na bikolo nyonso.
That upon earth men may know thy way, among all nations thy salvation.
3 Oh Nzambe, tika ete bikolo ekumisa Yo; tika ete bikolo nyonso ekumisa Yo!
The people will thank thee, O God; the people, all of them together, will thank thee.
4 Tika ete bato basepela, tika ete babeta milolo ya esengo, pamba te okambaka bikolo na bosembo, mpe otambolisaka bato awa na mabele.
Nations will rejoice and sing for joy: when thou judgest the people righteously, and guidest the nations upon earth. (Selah)
5 Oh Nzambe, tika ete bikolo ekumisa Yo; tika ete bikolo nyonso ekumisa Yo!
The people will thank thee, O God; the people, all of them together, will thank thee.
6 Mabele eboti bambuma na yango; tika ete Nzambe, Nzambe na biso, apambola biso.
The earth yieldeth her products: [yea, ] God, our own God, bless us.
7 Tika ete Nzambe apambola biso; tika ete mokili mobimba etosa Ye!
God will bless us: and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
