Psalms 4
1 God, answer me when I pray to you. You are the one who vindicates me; Rescue me from things that distress me. Act mercifully toward me, and listen to me while I pray.
Nkunga Davidi, kayimbidila mu bisiku bi zitsinga mu diambu di pfumu minyimbidi. Wuphutudila mvutu bu ndilembo kutedi, a Nzambi ama yisonga ayi wutsadisa bu ndidi mu phasi; wumboni kiadi, wa lusambulu luama.
2 How long will you people cause me to be disgraced instead of honoring me [RHQ]? You [people] love to falsely accuse me.
Nate thangu mbi luela, tatamana fuisa nkembo ama tsoni e? Nate thangu mbi luela tatamana zodilanga vanga mambu ma phamba ayi tombanga zinzambi zi luvunu e?
3 All those who are loyal to Yahweh, he has chosen them to belong to him. Yahweh listens to me when I pray to him.
Luzaba mboti ti Yave wukisobudidi mutu wumosi wunkinzikanga mambu mandi. Yave wela wa mu thangu ndiela kuntela.
4 When you people get angry, do not [allow your anger to control you and cause you to] sin. While you lie on your bed, silently examine what you are thinking.
Ku tsi nganzi eno, kadi vola masumu. Mu thangu luidi mu zimbuka zieno, lufiongunina mintima mieno bosi luba dio sui.
5 Also, offer to Yahweh the proper sacrifices, and continue trusting in him.
Lutambika makaba ma busonga, ayi lutula diana dieno mu Yave.
6 Some people ask, “Who will allow good things to happen to us?” [But I say], “Yahweh, continue to act kindly toward us.
Bawombo balembo tubi: “Nani wulenda kutumonisa mamboti e?” Bika kiezila ki zizi kiaku kitukienzula, a Yave!
7 You have made me very happy; I am happier than people who have harvested a great amount of grain and grapes.
Wuwesidi khini yiwombo mu ntimꞌama, viokila yoyi yiba yawu mu thangu baba ble yiwombo ayi vinu kiwombo
8 I can lie down [at night] and sleep soundly because [I know that] you, Yahweh, will keep me safe.”
Ndiela lambadala ayi ndiela leka tulu mu ndembama bila ngeyo veka kaka, a Yave bila ngeyo veka kaka wukuphuandisanga mu luvovomo.
