Psalms 77

1 Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of Asaph. I cried to the Lord with my voice; to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.

Nkunga Asafi kuidi Yedutuni, pfumu wu minyimbidi. Ndiyamikina kuidi Nzambi mu diambu di lusadusu ndiyamikina kuidi Nzambi mu kunguila.

2 In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, and I was not deceived. My soul refused to be comforted:

Thangu ndiba mu ziphasi, nditomba Yave; va builu ndinonuna mioko miama mu kambu vonga; ayi muelꞌama wumanga bombo.

3 I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.

Ndietebukila moyo, a Nzambi, ayi ndikunga; ndiyindula mu tsi ntima ayi pheve ama yivonga ngolo.

4 My eyes prevented the watches: I was troubled, and I spoke not.

Wekeba meso mama ma bika zibama, ndiba diaka mu phasi mu tuba.

5 I thought upon the days of old: and I had in my mind the eternal years.

Ndiyindula bilumbu bivioka, mimvu mi thama.

6 And I meditated in the night with my own heart: and I was exercised and I swept my spirit.

Ndieti tebukila minkunga miama moyo va builu, Ntima ama uyindula ku tsi ntima ayi pheve ama yikiyuvula:

7 Will God then cast off for ever? or will he never be more favourable again?

Pfumu wela tumbu loza kuandi mvimba e? Kalendi buela monisa nlemvo andi ko e?

8 Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, from generation to generation?

Luzolo luandi lungolo lusukidi kuandi mvimba e? Zitsila ziandi mu zithangu zioso zikitukidi zi phamba e?

9 Or will God forget to shew mercy? or will he in his anger shut up his mercies?

Nzambi wuzimbikini kuandi buela monisa nlemvo e? Wuyimini kiadi kiandi mu diambu di nganzi e?

10 And I said, Now have I begun: this is the change of the right hand of the most High.

Buna ndiyindula “mu diambu diadi ndiela singimina: mimvu mi koko ku lubakala ku Nzambi yizangama.”

11 I remembered the works of the Lord: for I will be mindful of thy wonders from the beginning.

Ndiela tebukila moyo mavanga ma Yave, bukiedika ndiela tebukila moyo bikumu biaku bi thama.

12 And I will meditate on all thy works: and will be employed in thy inventions.

Ndiela yindulanga mu tsi ntima bisalu biaku bioso; ayi ndiela banzilanga mavanga maku moso ma lulendo.

13 Thy way, O God, is in the holy place: who is the great God like our God?

Zinzila ziaku, a Nzambi, zidi zinlongo; nzambi mbi widi wunneni banga Nzambi eto e?

14 Thou art the God that dost wonders. Thou hast made thy power known among the nations:

Ngeyo widi Nzambi yimvanganga bikumu; Ngeyo weti monisa lulendo luaku muidi batu.

15 With thy arm thou hast redeemed thy people the children of Jacob and of Joseph.

Mu koko kuaku ku lulendo wukuidila batu baku, nkuna wu Yakobi ayi wu Zozefi.

16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee: and they were afraid, and the depths were troubled.

Minlangu mimmona, ngeyo a Nzambi! Minlangu mimona ngeyo, ayi mikotadala zitsina zi minlangu zi nikuka.

17 Great was the noise of the waters: the clouds sent out a sound. For thy arrows pass:

Matuti madukula minlangu; diyilu diduma mu nzazi madionga maku matotuka ku ntuala ayi ku mbusa.

18 The voice of thy thunder in a wheel. Thy lightnings enlightened the world: the earth shook and trembled.

Zinzazi ziaku ziwakana mu kimbongila; zitsiemo zikienzula ntoto; ntoto wunikuka ayi wutita.

19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in many waters: and thy footsteps shall not be known.

Nsolo aku wuviokila va khatitsika mbu, nzilꞌaku mu minlangu midi nguma, muna zithambi ziaku zisia monika ko.

20 Thou hast conducted thy people like sheep, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Wudiatisa batu baku banga nkangu wu mamemi, mu koko ku Moyize ayi Aloni.
