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.
For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm by Asaph. A song. In Judah, God is known. His name is great in Israel.
2 Ndako na Ye ya kapo ezali na Salemi; mpe esika na Ye ya kovanda ezali na Siona.
His tabernacle is also in Salem. His dwelling place in Zion.
3 Ezali kuna nde abukaki makonga ya makasi, banguba, mipanga mpe bibundeli nyonso ya bitumba.
There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. (Selah)
4 Ozali kongenga lokola mwinda, otonda na lokumu koleka bangomba ya babotoli bomengo ya bitumba.
Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.
5 Bilombe nyonso ya mpiko bakweyisamaki, balalaki pongi na bango ya suka; basoda nyonso bakokaki lisusu te kotombola maboko.
Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.
6 Nzambe ya Jakobi, na kanda na Yo, bato oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda elongo na bampunda bakweyi na somo.
At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
7 Solo, ozali somo! Nani akokoka kotelema liboso na Yo soki osiliki?
You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
8 Wuta na likolo, osalaka ete mokano na Yo eyokana na matoyi ya bato; mokili ekomaka na kobanga mpe evandaka kimia
You pronounced judgment from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,
9 tango, Yo Nzambe, otelemaka mpo na kosambisa mpe kobikisa banyokolami nyonso ya mokili.
when God arose to judgment, to save all the afflicted ones of the earth. (Selah)
10 Pamba te kanda makasi ya bato esanzolaka Yo, mpe olataka kanda ya batikali.
Surely the wrath of man praises you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.
11 Epai ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, bopesa bilaka mpe bokokisa yango. Tika ete bato nyonso oyo bazingeli Ye bamemela Nzambe ya somo makabo!
Make vows to the LORD your God, and fulfill them! Let all of his neighbors bring presents to him who is to be feared.
12 Abukaka lolendo ya bakambi, mpe bakonzi ya mokili babangaka Ye.
He will cut off the spirit of princes. He is feared by the kings of the earth.
