< Psalms 110 >

1 Yahweh said to my lord [the king], “Sit [here], close to me, in the place of highest honor [MTY] until I [completely defeat] your enemies [MET] [and] make [them like] a stool for your feet!”
Nkunga Davidi. Yave wutuba kuidi Pfumu ama: “Vuanda va koko kuama ku lubakala nate ndikitula bambeni ziaku kima kioki beti tetika malu mu diambu di malu maku.”
2 Yahweh [also said to him], “I will extend your power as king from Jerusalem [to other lands]; you will rule over all your enemies.
Yave wela nonuna nkawa aku wu lulendo wu kipfumu tona ku Sioni; wela yadila va khatitsika bambeni ziaku.
3 On the day that you lead your armies into battle, many of your people will volunteer [to join your army]. Like the dew refreshes the earth early in the morning, young men will [encourage you by] coming to help you.”
Minkangu miaku mi masodi miela ba luzolo lumboti; mu lumbu kiaku ki mvita bavuata nzitusu wunlongo tona mu khiesa buisi wela tambula bimi bi bumuana buaku.
4 Yahweh has made a solemn promise, and he will never change his mind; he has said to the king, “You will be a priest forever [serving Yahweh] like Melchizedek did.”
Yave wuzenga ndefi, kalendi viakisa mayindu mandi ko: “ngeyo widi nganga Nzambi mu zithangu zioso mu ntanda wu Meleshisedeki.”
5 Yahweh stands [in the place of highest honor] your right side; when he becomes angry, he will defeat [many kings].
Yave widi va koko kuaku ku lubakala; wela kosikisa mintinu mu lumbu ki miangu miandi mi ngolo.
6 He will judge and punish the people of [many] nations; he will fill the land with their corpses. He will crush the heads of other kings all over the earth.
Wela sambisa makanda, kupikisa bafua Niandi wela kosikisa minyadi va ntoto wumvimba.
7 But my lord the king will drink from streams near the road; he will be refreshed after defeating his enemies.
Niandi wela nua nlangu wu mvuila mu ndambu nzila, diawu kela vumbudila ngolo ntu andi.
