Psalms 28

1 Of David. To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.

Se yon sòm David. Seyè, se ou menm ki twou wòch kote m' kache a, se nan pye ou m'ap rele. Pa fè tankou ou pa tande m'. Si ou pa reponn mwen, m'ap tankou yon kadav y'ap antere.

2 Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.

Tande m' non, lè m'ap rele ou, lè m'ap mande ou sekou. Koute m' non, lè mwen leve de bra m' nan direksyon kay ki apa pou ou a.

3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.

Pa mete m' nan menm sak ak mechan yo, ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal, ak moun ki gen bèl pawòl nan bouch yo men ki gen mechanste plen kè yo.

4 Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.

Pini yo pou sa yo fè, pou tou sa yo fè ki mal. Pini yo pou tou sa yo fè, ba yo sa yo merite.

5 Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.

Yo pa pran ka sa Seyè a te fè, sa l' te fè ak men l'. Se pou Seyè a detwi yo, se pou l' disparèt yo nèt alè.

6 Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.

Ann fè lwanj Seyè a. Li tande m' lè mwen rele l'.

7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.

Seyè a ap pwoteje m', l'ap pran defans mwen. Mwen mete tout konfyans mwen nan li. Li ede m', kè m' kontan. M'ap chante pou m' fè lwanj li.

8 The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.

Se Seyè a ki tout fòs pèp li a. L'ap defann wa li chwazi a, l'ap delivre l'.

9 Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.

Seyè, sove pèp ou a non! Beni tout moun pa ou yo! Aji ak yo tankou yon bon gadò. Pran swen yo tout tan tout tan.
