Psalms 96

1 Luyimbidila Yave nkunga wumona. Luyimbidila Yave, ntoto wumbimba.

Sing to Jehovah a new song. Sing to Jehovah, all the earth.

2 Luyimbidila Yave, zitisanu dizina diandi; yamikisanu phulusu andi lumbu ka lumbu.

Sing to Jehovah. Bless his name. Proclaim his salvation from day to day.

3 Yolukilanu nkembo andi muidi makanda mambu mandi matsiminanga muidi batu boso.

Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.

4 Bila Yave widi wunneni ayi lutidi mu zitusu; tsisi kadi va yilu zinzambi zioso.

For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised. He is to be feared above all gods.

5 Bila zinzambi zi makanda zidi bitumba; vayi Yave niandi wuvanga diyilu.

For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but Jehovah made the heavens.

6 Kiezila ayi nzitusu bidi va ntualꞌandi zingolo ayi nkembo bidi mu buangu kiandi ki nlongo.

Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7 Luvana kuidi Yave, e mabuta ma makanda; luvana kuidi Yave nkembo ayi ngolo.

Ascribe to Jehovah, you families of nations, ascribe to Jehovah glory and strength.

8 Luvana nkembo kuidi Yave wufueni mu dizina diandi. Lunata dikaba ayi lukota mu ziphangu ziandi.

Ascribe to Jehovah the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come into his courts.

9 Lubuongimina Yave mu kiezila ki bunlongo buandi. Tita va ntualꞌandi, ntoto wumvimba.

Worship Jehovah in holy array. Tremble before him, all the earth.

10 Tuba muidi makanda: “Yave weti yala.” Nza yidi yikinda dio ngui; yilendi nikuka ko bila Yave wela sambisa batu mu bufuana.

Say among the nations, "Jehovah reigns." The world is also established. It can't be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity.

11 Bika diyilu dimona khini, bika ntoto wuyangalala. Bika mbu wutula biyoko ayi bibio bidi muna.

Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let the sea roar, and its fullness.

12 Bika zitsola zimona khini ayi bibio bidi muna; buna minti mioso mi nsitu miyimbila mu diambu di khini.

Let the field and all that is in it exult. Then all the trees of the woods shall sing for joy

13 Miela yimbila va ntuala Yave, bila wulembo yizi, wulembo yizi mu sambisa ntoto. Wela sambisa nza mu busonga ayi batu mu Kedika kiandi.

before Jehovah; for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, the peoples with his truth.
