Psalms 43

1 Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against a faithless nation. Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

Wundungisa, a Nzambi, ayi wunzonzila mu mambu mama kuidi dikanda di batu dinkambu kinzikanga mambu maku. Wukhula mu batu ba luvunu ayi batu bambimbi.

2 For you, God, are my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

Ngeyo Nzambi, ngeyo zingolo ziama. Bila mbi wundozidi e? Bila mbi mfueti diatilanga mu phasi, yamusungu kuidi mbeni e?

3 Oh, send out your light and your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy mountain, To your tents.

Fidisa kiezila ayi Kiedika kiaku; bila bindiatisa, bika bindata ku mongo aku wunlongo ayi nate ku buangu kioki weti vuanda.

4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy. I will praise you on the harp, God, my God.

Buna ndiela kuenda ku ntala wu Nzambi; kuidi Nzambi khini ama ayi yangalala kuama. Buna ndiela kunzitisa mu ngitala, A Nzambi, Nzambi ama.

5 Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I will again give him thanks, my saving presence and my God.

Bila mbi vongidi bobo, a muelꞌala e? Bila mbi wulembo niongina mu khati ama e? Tula diana diaku mu Nzambi bila ndiela kunzitisa diaka, Mvulusi ama ayi Nzambi ama.
