Psalms 35
1 For David himself. Judge thou, O Lord, them that wrong me: overthrow them that fight against me.
Nkunga Davidi. Zonzisa, a Yave, bobo balembo nzonzisa. Nuanisa bobo balembo nduanisa,
2 Take hold of arms and shield: and rise up to help me.
simba nkaku wu fioti ayi wunneni telama ayi yiza wutsadisa.
3 Bring out the sword, and shut up the way against them that persecute me: say to my soul: I am thy salvation.
Bonga dionga difioti ayi dinneni ayi kaka nzila yi bobo balembo ndandakana kamba muelꞌama: “Minu ndidi phulusu aku.”
4 Let them be confounded and ashamed that seek after my soul. Let them be turned back and be confounded that devise against me.
Bika batu babo bantombanga luzingu luama baba dio kombolo ayi bafua tsoni. Bika bobo bantombanga mabienga mama bavutuka ku mbusa ayi baba mu divuda;
5 Let them become as dust before the wind: and let the angel of the Lord straiten them.
bika baba banga mavevolo mamvevomono kuidi phemo va kimosi ayi mbasi yi Yave yi bakuka.
6 Let their way become dark and slippery; and let the angel of the Lord pursue them.
Bika nsolo awu wuba tombi ayi ndelo. Va kimosi ayi mbasi Yave yi balandakana.
7 For without cause they have hidden their net for me unto destruction: without cause they have upbraided my soul.
Bila bathambididi dikondi diawu mu kambu bila; mu kambu kadi bila bakabidi dibulu dinneni mu diambu diama.
8 Let the snare which he knoweth not come upon him: and let the net which he hath hidden catch him: and let the net which he hath hidden catch him: and into that very snare let them fall.
Bika mbivusulu yi babuila mu kinzimbukila ayi bika dikondi diodi batamba bawu veka dibabuila; bika babua mu dibulu, mu diambu di mbivusulu awu.
9 But my soul shall rejoice in the Lord; and shall be delighted in his salvation.
Buna muelꞌama wela mona khini mu Yave ayi wela yangalala mu phulusu andi.
10 All my bones shall say: Lord, who is like to thee? Who deliverest the poor from the hand of them that are stronger than he; the needy and the poor from them that strip him.
Buna nitu ama yimvimba yela yamikina: “nani widi banga ngeyo Yave? Ngeyo weti kula nsukami mu mioko mi mutu wunlutidi zingolo; nsukami ayi nkua mabienga mu mioko mi mutu wowo wulembo bayibi.”
11 Unjust witnesses rising up have asked me things I knew not.
Bambangi bakondolo kiadi zilembo telama; zilembo ndiuvula buivu mu mambu ma khambulu kuama zaba.
12 They repaid me evil for good: to the depriving me of my soul.
Bamvutudidi mambimbi mu mamboti. Bayekudi muelꞌama wawu veka.
13 But as for me, when they were troublesome to me, I was clothed with haircloth. I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer shall be turned into my bosom.
Vayi bu baba mu kimbevo; minu ndivuata tsaku. Ndikikulula mu kukifuisa nzala mu diambu di lusambulu Thangu zitsambulu ziama zivutuka kuidi minu mu kambu mvutu.
14 As a neighbour and as an own brother, so did I please: as one mourning and sorrowful so was I humbled.
Ndibedi diatanga ku tsi kiadi banga mu diambu di nkundi ama voti khomba ama. Ndibedi komvikanga ntu ku tsi mu diambu di kiadi banga minu ndindila ngudi ama.
15 But they rejoiced against me, and came together: scourges were gathered together upon me, and I knew not.
Minu bu ndibumina thutu, bakutakana va kimosi mu khini. Batu bakutakana mu diambu di kunduanisa minu mu kambu zaba diambu. Bawu bamfinga mu kambu vonga.
16 They were separated, and repented not: they tempted me, they scoffed at me with scorn: they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
Banga batu bobo bankinzikanga ko mambu ma Nzambi, balembo tsekinina mu bu mbimbi balembo khuetila meso.
17 Lord, when wilt thou look upon me? rescue thou soul from their malice: my only one from the lions.
A Yave, nate thangu mbi wela kumatadidilanga e? Kula luzingu luama mu mbivusu awu; kula luzingu luama luthalu mu zikhosi zioso.
18 I will give thanks to thee in a great church; I will praise thee in a strong people.
Ndiela kuvutudila matondo mu lukutukunu lunneni; va khatitsika batu bawombo ndiela kuzitisa.
19 Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: who have hated me without cause, and wink with the eyes.
Kadi tala ti bamona khini mu diambu diama, bobo badi bambeni ziama mu kambu bila; Kadi tala ti bobo bakundenganga mu kambu bila, bandiengudila meso mu bumbimbi.
20 For they spoke indeed peaceably to me; and speaking in the anger of the earth they devised guile.
Bayolukilanga ndembama ko; vayi banyindulanga mambu ma luvunu mu diambu di vunina bobo banzingilanga mu ndembama mu tsi.
21 And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said: Well done, well done, our eyes have seen it.
Balembo nzibudila miunu ayi balembo tubi: “A, a… mu meso meto veka tumueni mawu.”
22 Thou hast seen, O Lord, be not thou silent: O Lord, depart not from me.
A Yave, ngeyo wumona mambu momo bika ba dio sui, kadi kuthatukila, a Yave,
23 Arise, and be attentive to my judgment: to my cause, my God, and my Lord.
kotuka ayi telama mu zonzika, Nzambi ama ayi Yave ama.
24 Judge me, O Lord my God according to thy justice, and let them not rejoice over me.
Wundungisa boso buididi busonga buaku, a Yave, Nzambi ama; ayi kadi tala ti bamona khini mu diambu diama.
25 Let them not say in their hearts: It is well, it is well, to our mind: neither let them say: We have swallowed him up.
Kadi kuba bika bayindula: “A, a … buawu bobo tutididi.” Voti babika tuba: “beto tumminini.”
26 Let them blush: and be ashamed together, who rejoice at my evils. Let them be clothed with confusion and shame, who speak great things against me.
Bika babo bammonanga khini mu ziphasi ziama, bafua tsoni ayi baba dio kombolo Bika bobo balembo kukiniemisanga bawu veka mu diambu diama bafua tsoni ayi baba dio kombolo.
27 Let them rejoice and be glad, who are well pleased with my justice, and let them say always: The Lord be magnified, who delights in the peace of his servant.
Bika bobo bamonanga khini mu ndungunu ama bamonanga khini ayi bayangadala bika batuba mu zithangu zioso: “Bika Yave kayayusu, niandi wummonanga khini mu mamboti ma kisadi kiandi.”
28 Any my tongue shall meditate thy justice, thy praise all the day long.
Buna ludimi luama luela yolukila busonga buaku; ayi minzitusu miaku mu lumbu kimvimba.
