Banzembo 98

1 Nzembo. Boyembela Yawe nzembo ya sika, pamba te asalaka makambo ya kokamwa! Na nguya mpe na bokonzi na Ye ya bonzambe, alongaki.

A Psalm. Sing ye unto Jehovah a new song: for he hath done wondrous things; his right hand and his holy arm hath wrought salvation for him.

2 Yawe atalisaki elonga na Ye, amonisaki bosembo na Ye epai ya bikolo.

Jehovah hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the nations.

3 Akanisaki bolingo mpe bosembo na Ye mpo na libota ya Isalaele. Kino na suka ya mokili, elonga ya Nzambe na biso emonanaki.

He hath remembered his loving-kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

4 Mokili mobimba, bobetela Yawe maboko, boyemba banzembo ya esengo mpe bobeta mindule!

Shout aloud unto Jehovah, all the earth; break forth and shout for joy, and sing psalms.

5 Bobetela Yawe lindanda, boyembela Ye banzembo na lokito ya nzenze!

Sing psalms unto Jehovah with the harp: with the harp, and the voice of a song;

6 Bobeta maboko liboso ya Yawe, Mokonzi, na lokito ya bakelelo mpe ya maseke.

With trumpets and sound of cornet, make a joyful noise before the King, Jehovah.

7 Tika ete ebale monene elongo na nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango, mokili mpe bavandi na yango, bapesa lokito!

Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein;

8 Tika ete bibale ebeta maboko mpe bangomba nyonso eganga na esengo

Let the floods clap [their] hands; let the mountains sing for joy together,

9 liboso ya Yawe, pamba te azali koya kosambisa mabele! Akokata makambo na yango na bosembo.

Before Jehovah, for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.
