Psalms 141
1 A Psalm. Of David. Lord, I have made my cry to you; come to me quickly; give ear to my voice, when it goes up to you.
Yon Sòm David O SENYÈ, mwen rele non Ou. Fè vit! Vin kote m! Prete zòrèy Ou a vwa mwen lè m rele Ou!
2 Let my prayer be ordered before you like a sweet smell; and let the lifting up of my hands be like the evening offering.
Ke lapriyè mwen kapab konte kon lansan devan Ou; lè m leve men m, kon sakrifis ofrann aswè a.
3 O Lord, keep a watch over my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
Plase yon gadyen sou bouch mwen, O SENYÈ. Veye dri sou pòt lèv mwen yo.
4 Keep my heart from desiring any evil thing, or from taking part in the sins of the evil-doers with men who do wrong: and let me have no part in their good things.
Pa mennen kè m vè okenn mal, pou pratike zèv mechan yo, avèk moun ki fè inikite yo. Ni pa kite mwen manje manje ki fèt pa yo.
5 Let the upright give me punishment; and let the god-fearing man put me in the right way; but I will not let the oil of sinners come on my head: when they do evil I will give myself to prayer.
Kite moun ladwati yo frape mwen. Konsa, li dous. Kite li korije mwen. L ap tankou lwil ki koule sou tèt la. Pa kite tèt mwen refize li, paske lapriyè mwen toujou kont zak mechan yo.
6 When destruction comes to their judges by the side of the rock, they will give ear to my words, for they are sweet.
Jij pa yo fin jete a tè bò kote wòch yo. Yo va tande pawòl mwen yo, paske yo byen pale.
7 Our bones are broken up at the mouth of the underworld, as the earth is broken by the plough. (Sheol h7585)
Tankou lè yon moun laboure pou fann tè a, se konsa zo nou yo fin gaye nan bouch sejou mò a. (Sheol h7585)
8 But my eyes are turned to you, O Lord God: my hope is in you; let not my soul be given up to death.
Paske zye mwen se sou Ou, O BONDYE, Senyè a. Nan Ou, mwen kache. Pa kite nanm mwen san pwotèj.
9 Keep me from the net which they have put down for me, and from the designs of the workers of evil.
Sove m de dan pyèj ke yo te prepare pou mwen yo, avèk pèlen a (sila) ki fè inikite yo.
10 Let the sinners be taken in the nets which they themselves have put down, while I go free.
Kite mechan yo tonbe nan pwòp filè yo, pandan mwen pase akote.
