< Banzembo 93 >
1 Yawe azali kokonza, alati lokumu monene; Yawe alati penza lokumu monene mpe amizingeli na nguya. Solo, mokili etelema ngwi, eninganaka te.
Jehovah reigns! He is clothed with majesty. Jehovah is clothed with strength; he has girded himself with it. The world also is established that it cannot be moved.
2 Kiti ya Bokonzi na Yo epikama wuta kala; seko na seko, ozali.
Thy throne is established of old. Thou are from everlasting.
3 Yawe, bibale egangaka! Bibale etombolaka lokito na yango; bibale etombolaka makelele na yango.
The floods have lifted up, O Jehovah, the floods have lifted up their voice, the floods lift up their waves.
4 Yawe azali monene makasi, na bisika ya likolo; aleki lokito ya mayi minene, mpe bambonge milayi ya ebale monene.
Above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the sea, Jehovah on high is mighty.
5 Yawe, malako na Yo ezali penza ya solo; bosantu elati Ndako na Yo mpo na libela.
Thy testimonies are very sure. Holiness befits thy house, O Jehovah, for evermore.
