Psalms 6

1 For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments, according to the sheminith. A psalm of David. Lord, please don't condemn me because you're angry with me; please don't punish me because you're angry with me!

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi; ezali ya koyemba na lindanda ya basinga mwambe. Yawe, kopesa ngai etumbu te na kanda na Yo, kopesa ngai etumbu te na kanda makasi na Yo.

2 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak; heal me, Lord, for I am sick to the bone.

Yawe, yokela ngai mawa, pamba te nazangi makasi. Yawe, bikisa ngai na bokono, pamba te mikuwa na ngai elembi.

3 I'm shaking all over in fear. How long will it be, Lord, before you do something?

Molimo na ngai ezali kotungisama makasi; bongo Yo, Yawe, kino tango nini?

4 Turn, Lord, and rescue me! Save me because of your trustworthy love!

Yawe, zongela ngai, mpe kokangola ngai, bikisa ngai, mpo na bolingo na Yo.

5 For no one remembers you when they're dead. Who is able to praise you from the grave? (Sheol h7585)

Pamba te bakufi bakoki lisusu te kotatola Kombo na Yo te! Mpe kati na mboka ya bakufi, nani akoki kokumisa Yo? (Sheol h7585)

6 My groaning has exhausted me. Every night I soak my bed with my crying; I drench my couch with my tears.

Kolela elembisi ngai nzoto. Butu nyonso, nalelaka na mbeto na ngai, mpe napolisaka na mpinzoli, esika oyo nalalaka.

7 With all my crying I can hardly see; my eyes grow weak because of the trouble my enemies cause me.

Miso na ngai ebebi mpo na mawa; ezali lisusu komona malamu te likolo ya banyokoli na ngai.

8 Leave me alone, all you people who do evil, for the Lord has heard me crying!

Bino nyonso oyo bosalaka mabe, bolongwa liboso na ngai, pamba te Yawe ayoki kolela na ngai.

9 The Lord has heard me calling out for help; the Lord answers my prayer.

Yawe ayanoli mabondeli na ngai mpe ayambi losambo na ngai.

10 All who hate me will be shamefully defeated and terrified; they will run away in disgrace.

Banguna na ngai nyonso bakoyoka soni, mpe somo monene ekokanga bango; bakozonga na sima mpe bakoyoka mbala moko soni.
