< Psalms 59 >

1 To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God; secure me on high from them that rise up against me.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki ndenge moko na « Kobebisa te! » tango Saulo atindaki bato kozingela ndako ya Davidi mpo na koboma ye. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe na ngai, kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya banguna na ngai; batela ngai liboso ya banyokoli na ngai.
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from men of blood.
Kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya bato ya misala mabe, mpe bikisa ngai liboso ya basopi makila ya bato.
3 For behold, they lie in wait for my soul; strong ones are gathered against me: not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Jehovah.
Yawe, bazali koluka koboma ngai; bato na nguya basaleli ngai likita, nzokande nasali mabe te, nasali na ngai mpe masumu te.
4 They run and prepare themselves without [my] fault: awake to meet me, and behold.
Nasali mabe ata moko te; kasi bango bazali kopota mbangu, bazali komibongisa. Lamuka mpo na koya kokutana na ngai, mpe tala.
5 Yea, do thou, Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, arise to visit all the nations: be not gracious to any plotters of iniquity. (Selah)
Yawe, Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, Nzambe ya Isalaele, telema mpo na kopesa bikolo nyonso etumbu; koyokela bato nyonso oyo basalaka mabe mawa te.
6 They return in the evening; they howl like a dog, and go round about the city:
Bazongaka na pokwa, bagangaka lokola bambwa mpe batambolaka zingazinga ya engumba.
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth; swords are in their lips: for who [say they] doth hear?
Na nzela ya minoko na bango, babimisaka na bibebu na bango maloba oyo ezokisaka lokola mipanga; bamilobelaka: « Nani azali koyoka biso? »
8 But thou, Jehovah, wilt laugh at them; thou wilt have all the nations in derision.
Kasi Yo, Yawe, osekaka bango, otiolaka bikolo nyonso.
9 Their strength! ...I will take heed to thee; for God is my high fortress.
Nzambe, ozali makasi na ngai, nakotalela Yo; ozali ebombamelo na ngai,
10 God, whose loving-kindness will come to meet me, — God shall let me see [my desire] upon mine enemies.
Nzambe na ngai, oyo nalingaka. Nzambe ayaka kino liboso na ngai, atikaka ngai kotala banguna na ngai.
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget; by thy power make them wander, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
Nkolo, nguba na biso, koboma bango te, noki te bato na ngai bakobosana. Na nguya na Yo, sala ete bayengayenga, mpe mema bango kino na se.
12 [Because of] the sin of their mouth, the word of their lips, let them even be taken in their pride; and because of cursing and lying which they speak.
Mpo na masumu ya minoko na bango, mpo na maloba ya bibebu na bango, tika ete bakangama na motambo ya lolendo na bango. Mpo na bilakeli mabe mpe lokuta na bango,
13 Make an end in wrath, make an end, that they may be no more; that they may know that God ruleth in Jacob, unto the ends of the earth. (Selah)
bebisa bango na kanda na Yo, bebisa bango kino bazala lisusu te. Bongo bakoyeba ete Nzambe azali kokonza kati na Jakobi kino na suka ya mokili.
14 And in the evening they shall return, they shall howl like a dog, and go round about the city.
Bazongaka na pokwa, bagangaka lokola bambwa mpe batambolaka zingazinga ya engumba.
15 They shall wander about for meat, and stay all night if they be not satisfied.
Bayengaka-yengaka mpo na koluka bilei; soki batondi te, balekisaka butu na kolelalela.
16 But as for me, I will sing of thy strength; yea, I will sing aloud of thy loving-kindness in the morning; for thou hast been to me a high fortress, and a refuge in the day of my trouble.
Kasi ngai nakoyembela makasi na Yo, nakobetela bolingo na Yo milolo, na tongo, pamba te ozali ebombamelo na ngai, mpe ekimelo na ngai na tango ya pasi.
17 Unto thee, my strength, will I sing psalms; for God is my high fortress, the God of my mercy.
Ozali makasi na ngai, nakoyemba mpo na lokumu na Yo; ozali ebombamelo na ngai, oh Nzambe; Nzambe na ngai, oyo nalingaka.
