< Psalms 95 >

1 Come! Let us ring out our joy to the Lord, let us merrily shout to our rock of salvation.
Boya, toganga na esengo mpo na Yawe! Tobetela Libanga na biso maboko, pamba te azali Mobikisi na biso!
2 Before his face let us come with thanks, with songs of praise let us shout to him.
Tokende liboso na Ye elongo na mabondeli ya kozongisa matondi, tobetela Ye maboko elongo na banzembo.
3 For the Lord is a great God, king above all gods.
Pamba te Yawe azali Nzambe Monene, azali Mokonzi Monene, na likolo ya banzambe nyonso.
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth, the heights of the mountains are his.
Asimbi mozindo ya mokili kati na loboko na Ye; mpe basonge ya bangomba ezali ya Ye.
5 The sea is his, for he made it: the dry land was formed by his hands.
Ebale monene ezali ya Ye, azali Mokeli na yango; mabele ya kokawuka ezali mpe ya Ye, asala yango na maboko na Ye.
6 Come! Let us worship and bow on our knees to the Lord our creator.
Boya, togumbama mpe tofukama, tobuka mabolongo na biso liboso ya Yawe, Mokeli na biso!
7 For he is our God; and we are the people he tends, the sheep in his care. If only you would heed his voice today:
Pamba te azali Nzambe na biso; tozali bato oyo aleisaka, etonga oyo abatelaka. Lelo, soki boyoki mongongo na Ye,
8 ‘Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, or at Massah, that day in the desert,
« boyeisa mitema na bino mabanga te, ndenge bosalaki na Meriba; ndenge bosalaki na mokolo wana ya Masa kati na esobe
9 when your ancestors tempted and tried me, though they had seen my deeds.
epai wapi batata na bino batombokelaki ngai mpe bamekaki ngai atako bamonaki ngai kosala.
10 ‘For forty years I was filled with loathing for that generation, so I said: “A people with wandering hearts are they, and ignorant of my ways.”
Mibu tuku minei, nayinaki bato ya ekeke wana mpe nalobaki: ‹ Bazali bato oyo mitema na bango ebeba, bayebaka banzela na ngai te. ›
11 So I solemnly swore to them in my anger, that never would they enter my place of rest.’
Yango wana, kati na kanda na ngai, nakati seleka: ‹ Bakotikala kokota te kati na bopemi na ngai! › »
