< Psalms 62 >

1 Nkunga Davidi kuidi Yedutuni, pfumu minyimbidi. Muelꞌama umbakanga luvovomo mu Nzambi kaka. Phulusu ama kuidi niandi yimbanga.
For Jeduthun, the music director. A psalm of David. Only in God do I find peace; my salvation comes from him.
2 Niandi kaka ditadi diama ayi phulusu ama; niandi suamunu kiama kingolo; Ndilendi bulangana ko.
He is the one who protects me and saves me; he keeps me safe so I will never be in danger.
3 Nate zithangu zikua lufueti nuanisina mutu e? Lutombidi beno boso bu kumbuisila e? Banga baka kioki kitengama banga luphangu lolo lueka bua e?
How long are you going to attack me? All of you against one man! To you I'm just a broken wall, a collapsed fence.
4 Balembo nyendila manenga muingi bankundumuna va buangu kiandi ki zangama; khini beti mona mu mambu ma luvunu. Mu muinu miawu, balembo sakumuna, vayi mu khati ntima miawu, balembo singi.
They plan to throw me down from my high position; they love to tell lies. They say nice things to me, but inside they're cursing me. (Selah)
5 Ba mu ndembama, a muelꞌama, mu Nzambi kaka! Diana diama kuidi niandi dimbanga.
Only in God do I find peace; my hope comes from him.
6 Niandi kaka ditadi diama ayi phulusu ama; niandi suamunu kiama ki ngolo; Ndilengi bua ko.
He is the one who protects me and saves me; he keeps me safe so I will not be in danger.
7 Phulusu ama ayi nzitusu ama kuidi Nzambi bidi; niandi ditadi diama dingolo, suamunu kiama.
My salvation and my success come from God alone; God is my security and my protection.
8 Tulanganu diana dieno mu niandi mu thangu zioso, a batu. Luyalumuna mintima mieno kuidi niandi bila Nzambi niandi suamunu kieto.
My people, always trust in him. Pour out all your thoughts to him, for he is the one who looks after us. (Selah)
9 Batu baphamba badi kaka phemo, batu banneni badi kaka luvunu; enati babasidi va basikilu, basi kadi kiasa. Kubafuba va kimosi, badi kaka phemo.
Ordinary people are mere breaths, while leaders are just fakes. Put them all together and weigh them on scales and they wouldn't weigh more than air!
10 Kadi tulanu diana mu vinza bima bingana; voti tula luniemo mu bima bibuivi. Ka diambu ko kimvuama kiaku kilembo yilama, kadi tula ntimꞌaku mu biawu.
Don't trust in money made by extortion or robbery. Don't be proud of your wealth even if you are successful—don't make money what you live for.
11 Khumbu mosi Nzambi utuba, zikhumbu zizole ndiwila: ti ngeyo, a Nzambi, ngolo widi,
God has already made it clear—I have heard it many times—power belongs to you, God.
12 ayi ti ngeyo, a Yave, widi kiluzolo. Bukiedika, wetafuta kadika mutu boso bukasadidi.
You show us trustworthy love. You give back to people in return for what they've done.
