To the Chief Musician. With stringed Instruments. A Melody, a Song. God, be favorable to us and bless us, 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.

3 Oh Nzambe, tika ete bikolo ekumisa Yo; tika ete bikolo nyonso ekumisa Yo!

Peoples will praise thee, O God, Peoples will, all of them, praise thee,

4 Tika ete bato basepela, tika ete babeta milolo ya esengo, pamba te okambaka bikolo na bosembo, mpe otambolisaka bato awa na mabele.

Races of men, will be glad and shout for joy, Because thou wilt judge peoples with equity, And, races of men throughout the earth, thou wilt lead. (Selah)
