< Psalms 54 >
1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. Maschil of David; when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, And judge me in thy might.
Pou direktè koral la; sou enstriman ak kòd yo. Yon sòm a David, lè Zifyen yo te vin di Saül: “Èske David pa kache pami nou?” Sove mwen, O Bondye, ak non Ou e fè vanjans mwen ak pouvwa Ou.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; Give ear to the words of my mouth.
Koute lapriyè mwen, O Bondye. Prete zòrèy a pawòl a 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 etranje yo fin leve kont mwen. Moun vyolans yo te chache lavi mwen. Yo pa t mete Bondye devan yo.
4 Behold, God is my helper: The Lord is of them that uphold my soul.
Gade byen, Bondye se èd mwen. SENYÈ a se soutyen a nanm mwen.
5 He will requite the evil unto mine enemies: Destroy thou them in thy truth.
Li va rekonpanse mal a lènmi mwen yo. Detwi yo nan fidelite Ou.
6 With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.
Avèk bòn volonte, mwen va fè sakrifis a Ou. Mwen va bay remèsiman a non Ou, O SENYÈ, paske li bon.
7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble; And mine eye hath seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.
Paske Li te delivre mwen nan tout twoub. Konsa, zye mwen te wè ak kè kontan, defèt lènmi m yo.
