< Banzembo 93 >
1 Yawe azali kokonza, alati lokumu monene; Yawe alati penza lokumu monene mpe amizingeli na nguya. Solo, mokili etelema ngwi, eninganaka te.
The LORD reigns! He is robed in majesty; the LORD has clothed and armed Himself with strength. The world indeed is firmly established; it cannot be moved.
2 Kiti ya Bokonzi na Yo epikama wuta kala; seko na seko, ozali.
Your throne was established long ago; You are from all eternity.
3 Yawe, bibale egangaka! Bibale etombolaka lokito na yango; bibale etombolaka makelele na yango.
The floodwaters have risen, O LORD; the rivers have raised their voice; the seas lift up their pounding waves.
4 Yawe azali monene makasi, na bisika ya likolo; aleki lokito ya mayi minene, mpe bambonge milayi ya ebale monene.
Above the roar of many waters— the mighty breakers of the sea— the LORD on high is majestic.
5 Yawe, malako na Yo ezali penza ya solo; bosantu elati Ndako na Yo mpo na libela.
Your testimonies are fully confirmed; holiness adorns Your house, O LORD, for all the days to come.
