Psalms 58
1 To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. Michtam. Of David. Is there righteousness in your mouths, O you gods? are you upright judges, O you sons of men?
Pou direktè koral la; Nan melodi la “Pa Detwi”. Yon Sòm David Vrèman, èske nou pale ladwati, O lòt dye yo? Èske nou jije san fòt, O fis a lòm yo?
2 The purposes of your hearts are evil; your hands are full of cruel doings on the earth.
Non, nan kè, nou fòmante inikite. Sou latè, nou peze balans pou separe bay vyolans ak men nou.
3 The evil-doers are strange from the first; from the hour of their birth they go out of the true way, saying false words.
Mechan yo pèvès depi nan vant. (Sila) ki bay manti yo fè move wout depi nesans yo.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a snake; they are like the adder, whose ears are shut;
Yo gen pwazon tankou pwazon sèpan. Kon vipè soud ki bouche zòrèy li,
5 Who will not be moved by the voice of the wonder-worker, however great are his powers.
pou li pa tande vwa a (sila) k ap chame li yo, malgre se yon majisyen abil k ap fè wanga.
6 O God, let their teeth be broken in their mouths; let the great teeth of the young lions be pulled out, O Lord.
O Bondye, kraze dan nan bouch yo! Kase gwo dan a jenn lyon an, O SENYÈ.
7 Let them be turned to liquid like the ever-flowing waters; let them be cut off like the grass by the way.
Kite yo koule disparèt tankou dlo k ap kouri sou tè. Lè flèch li yo parèt, kite yo fèt tankou shaf san tèt.
8 Let them be like an after-birth which is turned to water and comes to an end; like the fruit of a woman who gives birth before her time, let them not see the sun.
Kite yo tankou kalmason ki fonn, ki vin disparèt pandan l ap mache, tankou avòtman a yon fanm ki p ap janm wè solèy la.
9 Before they are conscious of it, let them be cut down like thorns; let a strong wind take them away like waste growth.
Avan chodyè ou yo kab santi dife pikan yo, Li va bale yo fè yo disparèt nan van toubiyon; vèt ak (sila) kap brile yo, ansanm.
10 The upright man will be glad when he sees their punishment; his feet will be washed in the blood of the evil-doer.
Moun ladwati a va rejwi lè l wè vanjans lan. Li va lave pye li nan san a mechan yo,
11 So that men will say, Truly there is a reward for righteousness; truly there is a God who is judge on the earth.
pou moun yo di: “Anverite, gen yon rekonpans pou moun ladwati yo. Anverite, genyen yon Bondye k ap jije latè!”
