Psalms 71
1 In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age.
Mu ngeyo, a Yave, ndisuamina kadi tala ti ndifua tsoni kadi khumbu yimosi!
2 In Thy righteousness Thou dost deliver me, And dost cause me to escape, Incline unto me Thine ear, and save me.
Wukhudi ayi wuphukisa mu busonga buaku balula dikutu diaku kuidi minu ayi phukisa.
3 Be to me for a rock — a habitation, To go in continually, Thou hast given command to save me, For my rock and my bulwark [art] Thou.
Ba ditadi diama diodi di kutsuekanga; momo ndilenda kuenda mu zithangu zioso vana lutumunu mu kuphukisa bila widi ditadi diama ayi tinunu kiama ki ngolo.
4 O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.
Wukhudi Nzambi ama mu mioko mi batu bambimbi; mu mioko mi batu bamvanganga mambimbi ayi mu batu badi tsita.
5 For Thou [art] my hope, O Lord Jehovah, My trust from my youth.
Bila ngeyo wuba diana diama, a Yave, ngeyo wumvanganga moso wuzodidi. Diana diama tona mu bumuana buama.
6 By Thee I have been supported from the womb, From my mother's bowels Thou dost cut me out, In Thee [is] my praise continually.
Tona ndibutuka, mu ngeyo ndieti singimina; ngeyo wuthotula tona mu vumu ki ngudi ama; Ngeyo ndiela zitisanga mu zithangu zioso.
7 As a wonder I have been to many, And Thou [art] my strong refuge.
Ndieka banga diambu di siminina kuidi bawombo, vayi ngeyo suamunu kiama kingolo.
8 Filled is my mouth [with] Thy praise, All the day [with] Thy beauty.
Munu ama widi wuwala mu nzitusu aku wunyamikisa kiezila kiaku mu lumbu kimvimba.
9 Cast me not off at the time of old age, According to the consumption of my power forsake me not.
Kadi kundoza mu thangu ndieka nunu; kadi kundiekula mu thangu zingolo ziama zilembu suki!
10 For mine enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,
Bila bambeni ziama zilembo thubidila bobo balembo tombi kuphonda, balembo wizana va kimosi,
11 Saying, 'God hath forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.'
balembo tubi: “Nzambi wunyekudi, nlandakananu, bila kuisi ko mutu wufueti ku nkula.”
12 O God, be not far from me, O my God, for my help make haste.
Kadi ba thama ayi minu, a Nzambi, yiza nsualu Nzambi ama mu kutsadisa!
13 They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my soul, They are covered [with] reproach and blushing, Who are seeking my evil,
Bika mimfundi miama mibungana mu tsoni; bika bobo bantomba kuphanga phasi baba ba lenzo ayi dio kombolo.
14 And I continually do wait with hope, And have added unto all Thy praise.
Vayi kuidi minu, ndiela tulanga kaka diana mu zithangu zioso buela kuzitisanga ngolo.
15 My mouth recounteth Thy righteousness, All the day Thy salvation, For I have not known the numbers.
Munu ama wela yolukila busonga buaku ayi phulusu aku mu lumbu kimvimba, bila ndikadi zaba tezo biawu.
16 I come in the might of the Lord Jehovah, I mention Thy righteousness — Thine only.
Ndiela kuiza ayi yamikisa mavanga maku ma lulendo; a Yave, mutu wumvanganga makazodidi ndiela yamikisa busonga buaku; busonga buaku kaka.
17 God, Thou hast taught me from my youth, And hitherto I declare Thy wonders.
Tona mu bumuana buama, a Nzambi, ngeyo wundonga ayi ye lumbu kiaki yayi ndinyamikisanga matsiminanga maku.
18 And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.
Bobuawu, bu ndiela nuna ayi zitsuki ziphembi kadi ku ndiekula, a Nzambi. Muingi nditubila lulendo luaku kuidi tsungi yinkuiza, zingolo ziaku kuidi babo bela kuiza.
19 And Thy righteousness, O God, [is] unto the heights, Because Thou hast done great things, O God, who [is] like Thee?
Busonga buaku buntula nate ku diyilu, a Nzambi. Ngeyo wuvanga mambu manneni; nani a Nzambi widi banga ngeyo e?
20 Because Thou hast showed me many and sad distresses, Thou turnest back — Thou revivest me, And from the depths of the earth, Thou turnest back — Thou bringest me up.
Ngeyo wumbonisa ziphasi ziwombo ayi zindudi; wela buela kuphutudila luzingu; tona ku tsi ntoto, ngeyo wela buela kuthotula.
21 Thou dost increase my greatness, And Thou surroundest — Thou comfortest me,
Wela buela wokisa nzitusu ama, ayi buela ku khindisa diaka.
22 I also thank Thee with a vessel of psaltery, Thy truth, O my God, I sing to Thee with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,
Ndiela kuzitisa mu ngitala mu diambu di kikhuikizi kiaku, a Nzambi ama; ndiela kuyimbidila minzitusu mu Lila. Ngeyo nlongo wu Iseli.
23 My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to Thee, And my soul that Thou hast redeemed,
Bididi biama biela yimbila mu diambu di khini mu thangu ndiela kuyimbidila minzitusu, minu mutu wowo wukula.
24 My tongue also all the day uttereth Thy righteousness, Because ashamed — because confounded, Have been those seeking my evil!
Ludimi luama luela yolukila mavanga maku masonga mu lumbu kimvimba, Bila bobo bantomba kumbonisa phasi bela fua tsoni ayi bela ba dio kombolo.
