< Psalms 54 >
1 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon chante David te ekri lè moun peyi Zif yo te al di Sayil men David kache lakay yo. Bondye, delivre m' non avèk pouvwa ou! Fè m' jistis avèk fòs kouraj ou!
2 Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth.
Bondye, koute m' non lè m'ap lapriyè! Panche zòrèy ou pou tande pawòl k'ap soti nan bouch mwen!
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul. They have not set God before them. (Selah)
Paske gen yon seri moun awogan ki leve dèyè m', yon bann mechan ki soti pou touye m'! Yo pa menm chonje si gen Bondye!
4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is of those who uphold my soul.
Men, Bondye ap vin ede m'. Seyè a ap pran defans mwen.
5 He will requite the evil to my enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth.
L'ap fè mechanste moun ki pa vle wè m' yo tonbe sou tèt yo; l'ap fini nèt ak yo paske l'ap toujou kenbe pawòl li.
6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee. I will give thanks to thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.
Seyè, m'a ofri bèt pou yo touye pou ou ak kè kontan, m'a fè lwanj ou, paske ou bon pou mwen.
7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble, and my eye has seen it upon my enemies.
Ou delivre m' anba tray mwen te ye a; ou fè m' wè lènmi m' yo pèdi batay la.
