Psalms 87

1 A Psalme or song committed to the sonnes of Korah. God layde his foundations among the holy mountaines.

Nkunga bana ba Kole. Wutula fondasio andi ku mongo wunlongo.

2 The Lord loueth the gates of Zion aboue all the habitations of Iaakob.

Yave weti zola mielo mi Sioni viokila bibuangu bioso bimvuandanga Yakobi.

3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O citie of God. (Selah)

Mambu ma nkembo matubu mu diambu diaku; a divula di Nzambi.

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babel among them that knowe me: beholde Palestina and Tyrus with Ethiopia, There is he borne.

“Ndiela yolukila Lahabi ayi Babiloni muidi bobo banzebi; tsi yi Filisiti ayi Tila va kimosi ayi Kutsi: ayi tuba: mutu wawu ku Sioni kabutukila”.

5 And of Zion it shall be sayde, Many are borne in her: and he, euen the most High shall stablish her.

Buna mu diambu di Sioni; bela tuba: “Mutu wawu ayi mutu wuna, mu niandi babutukila” ayi Nzambi yizangama, niandi wela kumbieka.

6 The Lord shall count, when hee writeth the people, He was borne there. (Selah)

Yave wela sonika batu mu buku: “mutu wawu ku Sioni kabutukila.”

7 Aswell the singers as the players on instruments shall prayse thee: all my springs are in thee.

Bu balembo budi miziki, bela yimbila: “zitho ziama zioso zidi mu ngeyo.”
