Psalms 61

1 For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki na lindanda. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe, yoka koganga na ngai, yoka na bokebi losambo na ngai.

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto Thee, when my heart fainteth; lead me to a rock that is too high for me.

Wuta na suka ya mokili, nazali kobelela Yo, motema na ngai ebukani! Mema ngai na libanga oyo eleki likolo epai wapi nakokoka te kokoma ngai moko.

3 For Thou hast been a refuge for me, a tower of strength in the face of the enemy.

Pamba te, ozali ebombamelo na ngai, ndako molayi batonga makasi, liboso ya banguna na ngai.

4 I will dwell in Thy Tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of Thy wings. (Selah)

Posa ya motema na ngai ezali: kovanda tango nyonso kati na Ndako na Yo mpe kozwa ebombamelo na se ya mapapu na Yo.

5 For Thou, O God, hast heard my vows; Thou hast granted the heritage of those that fear Thy name.

Pamba te Yo Nzambe, oyokaki bandayi na ngai, opesaki ngai libula ya bato oyo batosaka Kombo na Yo.

6 Mayest Thou add days unto the king's days! May his years be as many generations!

Pesa na mokonzi na biso bomoi molayi; tika ete awumela na bomoi.

7 May he be enthroned before God for ever! Appoint mercy and truth, that they may preserve him.

Tika ete awumela na bokonzi libela na libela liboso ya Nzambe! Bolingo mpe boyengebene na Yo ekobatela ye.

8 So will I sing praise unto Thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Boye, nakoyemba mikolo nyonso mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo, mpe nakokokisa bandayi na ngai mokolo na mokolo.
