1 Boyembela Yawe nzembo ya sika! Bino nyonso, bato ya mokili mobimba, boyembela Yawe!
A canticle for David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Boyembela Yawe, bopambola Kombo na Ye! Bopanza sango ya lobiko na Ye, mokolo na mokolo!
Sing ye to the Lord and bless his name: shew forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Bopanza sango ya nkembo na Ye kati na mabota! Boyebisa bato misala na Ye ya kokamwa kati na bikolo nyonso.
Declare his glory among the Gentiles: his wonders among all people.
4 Pamba te Yawe azali monene mpe abongi na lokumu, azali somo makasi mpe aleki banzambe nyonso.
For the Lord is great, and exceedingly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
5 Banzambe nyonso ya bikolo ezali bikeko ya pamba, nzokande Yawe akela likolo.
For all the gods of the Gentiles are devils: but the Lord made the heavens.
6 Kongenga mpe nkembo monene ezali liboso na Ye, nguya mpe nkembo ezali kati na Esika na Ye ya bule.
Praise and beauty are before him: holiness and majesty in his sanctuary.
7 Bino bituka ya mabota, bosanzola Yawe; bosanzola Yawe na kopanza sango ya nkembo mpe nguya na Ye!
Bring ye to the Lord, O ye kindreds of the Gentiles, bring ye to the Lord glory and honour:
8 Bosanzola Yawe mpe bopesa Kombo na Ye nkembo! Bomema makabo na bino, bokota na lopango na Ye!
Bring to the Lord glory unto his name. Bring up sacrifices, and come into his courts:
9 Bogumbama liboso ya Yawe oyo bosantu na Ye ezali kongenga makasi! Bino bavandi ya mokili mobimba, bolenga liboso na Ye!
Adore ye the Lord in his holy court. Let all the earth be moved at his presence.
10 Boloba kati na mabota: « Yawe azali Mokonzi! Mokili elendisama makasi, ekoningana te. Yawe asambisaka bato na bosembo. »
Say ye among the Gentiles, the Lord hath reigned. For he hath corrected the world, which shall not be moved: he will judge the people with justice.
11 Tika ete likolo esepela, mpe mabele ezala kati na esengo! Tika ete ebale monene elongo na nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango epesa lokito!
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad, let the sea be moved, and the fulness thereof:
12 Tika ete zamba mobimba elongo na nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango esepela, mpe tika ete banzete nyonso ya zamba eganga na esengo
The fields and all things that are in them shall be joyful. Then shall all the trees of the woods rejoice
13 liboso ya Yawe, pamba te azali koya! Solo, azali koya kosambisa mabele; akosambisa mokili na bosembo, mpe bikolo kolanda boyengebene na Ye.
Before the face of the Lord, because he cometh: because he cometh to judge the earth. He shall judge the world with justice, and the people with his truth.
