Psalms 80
1 For the end, for alternate [strains], a testimony for Asaph, a Psalm concerning the Assyrian. Attend, O Shepherd of Israel, who guide Joseph like a flock; you who sit upon the cherubs, manifest yourself;
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se pou yo chante l' sou menm lè ak chante ki di: Bèl ti flè savann blan yo. Se pou yo jwe mizik la sou enstriman akòd. Se yon sòm Asaf. Ou menm ki gadò pèp Izrayèl la, ou menm k'ap mennen pitit pitit Jozèf yo tankou bann mouton ou, panche zòrèy ou pou koute nou. Ou menm ki chita sou fotèy ou anwo zanj cheriben yo, parèt nan mitan gwo limyè ou la.
2 before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasse, stir up your power, and come to deliver us.
Fè pitit Efrayim, pitit Benjamen ansanm ak pitit Manase yo wè jan ou gen pouvwa. vin delivre nou.
3 Turn us, O God, and cause your face to shine; and we shall be delivered.
Bondye, mete nou sou pye nou ankò! Fè nou santi ou la avèk nou, epi n'a delivre.
4 O Lord God of hosts, how long are you angry with the prayer of your servant?
Seyè, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, jouk kilè w'a rete fache sou pèp ou k'ap lapriyè nan pye ou?
5 You will feed us with bread of tears; and will cause us to drink tears by measure.
Ou ba yo dlo k'ap koule sot nan je yo pou sèvi yo manje. Ou ba yo gwo gode plen dlo k'ap soti nan je yo pou yo bwè.
6 You has made us a strife to our neighbours; and our enemies have mocked at us.
Ou kite nasyon ki bò kote nou yo ap goumen yonn ak lòt poutèt nou. Ou kite lènmi nou yo ap pase nou nan rizib.
7 Turn us, O Lord God of hosts, and cause your face to shine; and we shall be saved. (Pause)
Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa, mete nou sou pye nou ankò. Fè nou santi ou la avèk nou, epi n'a delivre.
8 You have transplanted a vine out of Egypt: you have cast out the heathen, and planted it.
Ou rache yon pye rezen nan peyi Lejip, ou mete anpil nasyon deyò, ou plante l' nan plas yo.
9 You made a way before it, and did cause its roots to strike, and the land was filled [with it].
Ou pare yon moso tè kote pou l' te grandi. Li pouse gwo rasin byen fon, branch li yo kouvri tout peyi a.
10 Its shadow covered the mountains, and its shoots [equalled] the goodly cedars.
Lonbraj li te kouvri tout mòn yo, branch li yo kouvri tout gwo pye sèd yo.
11 It sent forth its branches to the sea, and its shoots to the river.
Branch li yo rive jouk bò lanmè Mediterane, jouk bò larivyè Lefrat.
12 Therefore have you broken down its hedge, while all that pass by the way pluck it?
Poukisa ou lage lantouraj li yo atè konsa, kifè koulye a nenpòt moun k'ap pase vin vòlè rezen li yo?
13 The boar out of the wood has laid it waste, and the wild beast has devoured it.
Kochon mawon fin raboure rasin li yo, bèt nan bwa ap manje tout fèy li yo.
14 O God of hosts, turn, we pray you: look on [us] from heaven, and behold and visit this vine;
Bondye, ou menm ki gen tout pouvwa, tounen vin jwenn nou non! Kote ou ye nan syèl la, gade sak rive nou! Pran ka pye rezen ou lan non!
15 and restore that which your right hand has planted: and look on the son of man whom you did strengthen for yourself.
vin sove pye rezen ou menm ou te plante a, ti pye rezen ou fè tounen yon gwo pyebwa a.
16 [It is] burnt with fire and dug up: they shall perish at the rebuke of your presence.
Lènmi nou yo mete dife ladan l', yo koupe tout branch li yo. Fè kòlè! Annik gade yo, y'a peri!
17 Let your hand be upon the man of your right hand, and upon the son of man whom you did strengthen for yourself.
Pwoteje peyi ou te fè tounen yon gwo peyi a! Pwoteje pèp ou te chwazi a!
18 So will we not depart from you: you shall quicken us, and we will call upon your name.
Nou p'ap janm vire do ba ou ankò! Ban nou lavi ankò! N'a fè lwanj ou!
19 Turn us, O Lord God of hosts, and make your face to shine; and we shall be saved.
Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, mete nou sou pye nou ankò! Fè nou santi ou la avèk nou, epi n'a delivre!
