Banzembo 80
1 Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Ezali ya koyemba lokola « Lisi ya Mobeko. » Litatoli. Nzembo ya Azafi. Mobateli ya Isalaele, Yo oyo otambolisaka Jozefi lokola etonga ya bameme, yoka; Yo oyo Kiti ya Bokonzi na Yo ezali kati na basheribe, mimonisa
To him that excelleth on Shoshannim Eduth. A Psalme committed to Asaph. Heare, O thou Shepheard of Israel, thou that leadest Ioseph like sheepe: shewe thy brightnes, thou that sittest betweene the Cherubims.
2 liboso ya Efrayimi, ya Benjame mpe ya Manase. Monisa nguya na Yo mpe yaka kobikisa biso!
Before Ephraim and Beniamin and Manasseh stirre vp thy strength, and come to helpe vs.
3 Oh Nzambe, sala ete tozongela ndenge tozalaki, ngengisela biso elongi na Yo mpo ete tobika.
Turne vs againe, O God, and cause thy face to shine that we may be saued.
4 Eh Yawe, Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, kino tango nini okotombokela mabondeli ya bato na Yo?
O Lord God of hostes, how long wilt thou be angrie against the prayer of thy people?
5 Oleisaki bango lipa esangana na mayi ya miso mpe olangwisaki bango na kopo etonda na mpinzoli;
Thou hast fedde them with the bread of teares, and giuen them teares to drinke with great measure.
6 okomisaki biso eloko ya kotiola mpo na bazalani na biso, mpe banguna na biso bakomi kotiola biso.
Thou hast made vs a strife vnto our neighbours, and our enemies laugh at vs among themselues.
7 Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, sala ete tozongela ndenge tozalaki, ngengisela biso elongi na Yo mpo ete tobika.
Turne vs againe, O God of hostes: cause thy face to shine, and we shalbe saued.
8 Nzete ya vino oyo opikolaki wuta na Ejipito, olonaki yango wana obenganaki bikolo ebele.
Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9 Obongiselaki yango mabele mpo ete ezwa misisa mpe etondisa mokili.
Thou madest roume for it, and didest cause it to take roote, and it filled the land.
10 Elili na yango ezipaki bangomba, bitape na yango ezalaki lokola banzete minene ya sedele.
The mountaines were couered with the shadowe of it, and the boughes thereof were like the goodly cedars.
11 Epanzaki bitape na yango kino na ebale monene, mpe mito na yango ya sika kino na ebale.
Shee stretched out her branches vnto the Sea, and her boughes vnto the Riuer.
12 Mpo na nini otoboli madusu kati na bamir na yango? Tala ndenge baleki nzela bazali kobuka bambuma na yango!
Why hast thou then broken downe her hedges, so that all they, which passe by the way, haue plucked her?
13 Ngulu ya zamba ezali kobebisa yango, mpe nyama ya zamba ezali kolia yango.
The wilde bore out of the wood hath destroyed it, and the wilde beastes of the fielde haue eaten it vp.
14 Zongela biso lisusu, Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso! Wuta na likolo, tala mpe mona! Senzela mpo na nzete oyo ya vino!
Returne we beseech thee, O God of hostes: looke downe from heauen and beholde and visite this vine,
15 Batela nzete oyo loboko na Yo ya mobali elonaki, batela solo mwana oyo Yo moko obokolaki.
And the vineyard, that thy right hand hath planted, and the young vine, which thou madest strong for thy selfe.
16 Bakati nzete na Yo ya vino mpe batumbi yango na moto; tika ete bakufa na pamela ya elongi na Yo!
It is burnt with fire and cut downe: and they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
17 Tika ete loboko na Yo ezala na likolo ya mokonzi oyo avandi na ngambo ya loboko na Yo ya mobali, mpe na likolo ya mwana na moto oyo Yo moko okomisaki makasi.
Let thine hande be vpon the man of thy right hande, and vpon the sonne of man, whome thou madest strong for thine owne selfe.
18 Boye, tokozala lisusu mosika na Yo te; zongisela biso lisusu bomoi, mpe tokobelela Kombo na Yo.
So will not we goe backe from thee: reuiue thou vs, and we shall call vpon thy Name.
19 Yawe, Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, sala ete tozongela ndenge tozalaki, ngengisela biso elongi na Yo mpo ete tobika.
Turne vs againe, O Lord God of hostes: cause thy face to shine and we shalbe saued.
