Psalms 27
1 A Psalme of David. The Lord is my light and my saluation, whom shall I feare? the Lord is the strength of my life, of whome shall I be afraide?
Nzembo ya Davidi. Yawe azali pole mpe lobiko na ngai; nakobanga nani? Yawe azali ndako batonga makasi ya bomoi na ngai; nakolenga liboso ya nani?
2 When the wicked, euen mine enemies and my foes came vpon mee to eate vp my flesh; they stumbled and fell.
Tango bato mabe babundisaka ngai mpo na koluka kosala ngai mabe, ezali bayini mpe banguna na ngai nde baninganaka mpe bakweyaka.
3 Though an hoste pitched against me, mine heart should not be afraide: though warre be raised against me, I will trust in this.
Ata limpinga ezingeli ngai, motema na ngai ekobanga soki moke te; ata etumba etelemi mpo na koboma ngai, atako bongo, nakozala kaka na elikya makasi.
4 One thing haue I desired of the Lord, that I will require, euen that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the dayes of my life, to beholde the beautie of the Lord, and to visite his Temple.
Nalukaka eloko moko kowuta na Yawe, eloko moko kaka oyo nasengaka makasi: nalingi kovanda na Tempelo ya Yawe, mikolo nyonso ya bomoi na ngai, mpo na kosepelaka na kitoko ya Yawe mpe kosengaka toli na Ye kati na Tempelo na Ye.
5 For in the time of trouble hee shall hide mee in his Tabernacle: in the secrete place of his pauillion shall he hide me, and set me vp vpon a rocke.
Pamba te, na tango ya pasi, akobatela ngai kati na evandelo na Ye, akobomba ngai kati ya Ndako na Ye ya bule mpe akotelemisa ngai na likolo ya libanga.
6 And nowe shall hee lift vp mine head aboue mine enemies rounde about mee: therefore wil I offer in his Tabernacle sacrifices of ioy: I wil sing and praise the Lord.
Bongo, nakotombola moto na ngai na likolo ya banguna oyo bazingeli ngai; nakobanda kobonza, na se ya lokito ya esengo, bambeka kati Ndako na Ye ya bule; nakobanda koyembela Yawe mpe kobetela Ye mindule.
7 Hearken vnto my voyce, O Lord, when I crie: haue mercie also vpon mee and heare mee.
Yawe, yoka mongongo na ngai, soki nabeleli Yo; salela ngai ngolu mpe yanola ngai.
8 When thou saidest, Seeke ye my face, mine heart answered vnto thee, O Lord, I will seeke thy face.
Motema na ngai elobi na tina na Yo: « Tala elongi na Ye! » Yawe, nakotala elongi na Yo.
9 Hide not therefore thy face from mee, nor cast thy seruat away in displeasure: thou hast bene my succour: leaue me not, neither forsake mee, O God of my saluation.
Kopesa ngai mokongo te, kobengana mosali na Yo te na kanda; osungaki ngai. Kotika ngai te, kosundola ngai te, Nzambe, Mobikisi na ngai.
10 Though my father and my mother shoulde forsake me, yet the Lord will gather me vp.
Ata tata mpe mama na ngai basundoli ngai, Yawe akolokota ngai.
11 Teache mee thy way, O Lord, and leade me in a right path, because of mine enemies.
Yawe, lakisa ngai nzela na Yo, tambolisa ngai na nzela ya alima, pamba te banguna na ngai bazali koluka ngai.
12 Giue me not vnto the lust of mine aduersaries: for there are false witnesses risen vp against me, and such as speake cruelly.
Kotika te ete nakangama na motambo ya bayini na ngai, pamba te batatoli ya lokuta batelemi mpo na kokosela ngai makambo, bazali kobimisa maloba mabe.
13 I should haue fainted, except I had beleeued to see the goodnes of the Lord in the land of the liuing.
Nakozalaka na elikya na likambo oyo: nakobika bolamu ya Yawe kati na mokili ya bato ya bomoi.
14 Hope in the Lord: be strong, and he shall comfort thine heart, and trust in the Lord.
Talela Yawe! Zala makasi mpe yika mpiko! Talela Yawe!
