< Banzembo 76 >
1 Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Ezali ya koyemba na lindanda. Nzembo ya Azafi. Nzambe ayebani kati na Yuda; Kombo na Ye ezali monene kati na Isalaele.
To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme or song committed to Asaph. God is knowen in Iudah: his Name is great in Israel.
2 Ndako na Ye ya kapo ezali na Salemi; mpe esika na Ye ya kovanda ezali na Siona.
For in Shalem is his Tabernacle, and his dwelling in Zion.
3 Ezali kuna nde abukaki makonga ya makasi, banguba, mipanga mpe bibundeli nyonso ya bitumba.
There brake he the arrowes of the bowe, the shielde and the sword and the battell. (Selah)
4 Ozali kongenga lokola mwinda, otonda na lokumu koleka bangomba ya babotoli bomengo ya bitumba.
Thou art more bright and puissant, then the mountaines of pray.
5 Bilombe nyonso ya mpiko bakweyisamaki, balalaki pongi na bango ya suka; basoda nyonso bakokaki lisusu te kotombola maboko.
The stout hearted are spoyled: they haue slept their sleepe, and all the men of strength haue not found their hands.
6 Nzambe ya Jakobi, na kanda na Yo, bato oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda elongo na bampunda bakweyi na somo.
At thy rebuke, O God of Iaakob, both the chariot and horse are cast a sleepe.
7 Solo, ozali somo! Nani akokoka kotelema liboso na Yo soki osiliki?
Thou, euen thou art to be feared: and who shall stand in thy sight, when thou art angrie!
8 Wuta na likolo, osalaka ete mokano na Yo eyokana na matoyi ya bato; mokili ekomaka na kobanga mpe evandaka kimia
Thou didest cause thy iudgement to bee heard from heauen: therefore the earth feared and was still,
9 tango, Yo Nzambe, otelemaka mpo na kosambisa mpe kobikisa banyokolami nyonso ya mokili.
When thou, O God, arose to iudgement, to helpe all the meeke of the earth. (Selah)
10 Pamba te kanda makasi ya bato esanzolaka Yo, mpe olataka kanda ya batikali.
Surely the rage of man shall turne to thy praise: the remnant of the rage shalt thou restrayne.
11 Epai ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, bopesa bilaka mpe bokokisa yango. Tika ete bato nyonso oyo bazingeli Ye bamemela Nzambe ya somo makabo!
Vowe and performe vnto the Lord your God, all ye that be rounde about him: let them bring presents vnto him that ought to be feared.
12 Abukaka lolendo ya bakambi, mpe bakonzi ya mokili babangaka Ye.
He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the Kings of the earth.
