Psalms 5
1 To the Chief Musician. For the Flutes. A Melody of David. To my words, give ear, O Yahweh, Understand thou my softly murmured prayer:
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi; ezali ya koyemba na flite. Oh Yawe, yoka maloba na ngai, sosola tina ya kolelalela na ngai.
2 Attend to the voice of my cry, my King and my God, for, unto thee, do I pray.
Mokonzi na ngai mpe Nzambe na ngai, yoka koganga na ngai wana nazali kosenga lisungi, pamba te nazali kobondela nde Yo.
3 O Yahweh! in the morning, shalt thou hear my voice, In the morning, will I set in order unto thee, and keep watch;
Yawe, na tongo, oyokaka mongongo na ngai; na tongo, nabelemaka mpo na kosenga epai na Yo mpe nazelaka.
4 For, not a GOD finding pleasure in lawlessness, art thou, and wrong can be no guest of thine:
Pamba te ozali Nzambe te oyo asepelaka na mabe, mpe moto mabe akoki kutu te kovanda elongo na Yo.
5 Boasters, shall not station themselves, before thine eyes, —Thou hatest all workers of iniquity:
Bato ya lolendo bakoki te kotelema liboso na Yo. Oyinaka bato nyonso oyo basalaka mabe.
6 Thou wilt destroy them who speak falsehood, —The man of bloodshed and of deceit, Yahweh abhorreth.
Obomaka bato oyo balobaka lokuta. Yo, Yawe, oyinaka babomi mpe bakosi.
7 But, I, in the abounding of thy lovingkindness, will enter thy house, I will bow down towards thy holy temple, in reverence of thee:
Kasi mpo ete bolingo na Yo eleki monene, nakoki kokota kati na Ndako na Yo, nakoki kofukama mpo na botosi epai ya Tempelo na Yo ya bule.
8 O Yahweh! lead me in thy righteousness, because of mine adversaries, Make even, before me, thy way:
Yawe, tambolisa ngai na bosembo na Yo, pamba te nazali na banguna; bongisa nzela oyo olingi ete natambola na yango.
9 For in his mouth is nothing worthy of trust, Their inward purpose, is engulphing ruin, —An opened sepulchre, is their throat, With their tongue, speak they smooth things.
Minoko na bango elobaka kaka lokuta, mitema na bango etondi na mabe. Minoko na bango ezali lokola bakunda ya kofungwama, mpe bakosaka na nzela ya lolemo na bango.
10 Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall by their own counsels, —Into the throng of their own transgressions, thrust them down, For they have rebelled against thee: —
Oh Nzambe, katela bango etumbu. Tika ete mabongisi na bango ebotela bango libebi. Bengana bango mpo na ebele ya masumu na bango, pamba te batombokeli nde Yo.
11 That all may rejoice who seek refuge in thee, to times age-abiding, may shout in triumph, that thou wilt protect them, and they may leap for joy in thee who are lovers of thy Name.
Kasi tika ete bato nyonso oyo bazwaka Yo lokola ebombamelo na bango bazalaka na esengo tango nyonso, tika ete bayembaka mpo na esengo, bomoi na bango mobimba. Batela bango mpo ete bato oyo balingaka Kombo na Yo basepelaka kati na Yo.
12 For, thou, wilt bless the righteous man, O Yahweh, As with an all-covering shield—with good pleasure, wilt thou encompass him.
Oh Yawe, solo, opambolaka bato ya sembo mpe ozingelaka bango na nzela ya ngolu na Yo lokola na nzela ya nguba.
