Psalms 61

1 Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi; kayimbidila mu lusinga. Wa yamikina kuama, e Nzambi tamba dikutu mulusambulu luama

Hear my cry, O Elohim; attend unto my prayer.

2 Tona kusukinina ntoto, ngeyo ndintela; nditela bu ntimꞌama wumevonga ngolo; wundati va mbata dibanga diodi dindutidi mu nangama.

From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 Bila ngeyo wuba suamunu kiama; ngeyo wuba nzo yizangama ayi yingolo va ntuala mutu weti kundenda.

For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

4 Ndiela zingila mu nzo aku yi ngoto; mu zithangu zioso ayi ndiela suamina ku tsi mavavi maku.

I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

5 Bila ngeyo, wuwa zikhanu ziama, e Nzambi; ngeyo wuphana kiuka ki batu bobo beti kinzika dizina diaku.

For thou, O Elohim, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

6 Buela bilumbu bi luzingu lu ntinu, mimvu miandi mu diambu di zitsungu ziwombo.

Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.

7 Bika kavuanda va kundu ki kipfumu va meso ma Nzambi mu zithangu zioso; tula luzolo luaku ayi kikhuikizi kiaku mu kunkeba.

He shall abide before Elohim for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

8 Buna ndiela yimbidila nzitusu mu diambu di dizina diaku mu zithangu zioso ayi ndiela dedikisa zikhanu ziama lumbu ka lumbu.

So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
