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 reigneth, he hath clothed himself with majesty: Jehovah hath clothed himself, he hath girded himself with strength; yea, the world is established, it shall not be moved.

2 Kiti ya Bokonzi na Yo epikama wuta kala; seko na seko, ozali.

Thy throne is established of old; thou art from eternity.

3 Yawe, bibale egangaka! Bibale etombolaka lokito na yango; bibale etombolaka makelele na yango.

The floods lifted up, O Jehovah, the floods lifted up their voice; the floods lifted up their roaring waves.

4 Yawe azali monene makasi, na bisika ya likolo; aleki lokito ya mayi minene, mpe bambonge milayi ya ebale monene.

Jehovah on high is mightier than the voices of many waters, than the mighty breakers of the sea.

5 Yawe, malako na Yo ezali penza ya solo; bosantu elati Ndako na Yo mpo na libela.

Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thy house, O Jehovah, for ever.
