Psalms 54

1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. When the Ziphites went to Saul and said, “Is David not hiding among us?” Save me, O God, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your 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; listen to the words of my mouth.

Koute lapriyè mwen, O Bondye. Prete zòrèy a pawòl a bouch mwen.

3 For strangers rise up against me, and ruthless men seek my life— men with no regard for God.

Paske etranje yo fin leve kont mwen. Moun vyolans yo te chache lavi mwen. Yo pa t mete Bondye devan yo.

4 Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

Gade byen, Bondye se èd mwen. SENYÈ a se soutyen a nanm mwen.

5 He will reward my enemies with evil. In Your faithfulness, destroy them.

Li va rekonpanse mal a lènmi mwen yo. Detwi yo nan fidelite Ou.

6 Freely I will sacrifice to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, 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 has delivered me from every trouble, and my eyes have stared down my foes.

Paske Li te delivre mwen nan tout twoub. Konsa, zye mwen te wè ak kè kontan, defèt lènmi m yo.
