Psalms 31
1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. In thee, Jehovah, do I trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Seyè, m'ap chache pwoteksyon anba zèl ou! Pa janm kite m' pran wont ankò. Ou se yon Bondye ki pa nan patipri. Tanpri, delivre mwen.
2 Incline thine ear to me, deliver me speedily; be a strong rock to me, a house of defence to save me.
Panche zòrèy ou bò kote m', prese vin delivre mwen. Se ou menm ki twou wòch kote m' ka jwenn pwoteksyon. Se ou menm ki pou sèvi m' ranpa. Se ou menm ki pou delivre m'.
3 For thou art my rock and my fortress; and, for thy name's sake, thou wilt lead me and guide me.
Se ou ki tout pwoteksyon mwen, tout defans mwen. Tanpri, dirije m', kondi m' poutèt non ou pote a.
4 Draw me out of the net that they have hidden for me; for thou art my strength.
Pa kite m' tonbe nan pèlen yo tann pou mwen an. Se ou menm k'ap pwoteje m'.
5 Into thy hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, Jehovah, [thou] God of truth.
Mwen renmèt lespri mwen nan men ou. W'a delivre m', Seyè, paske ou se yon Bondye ki kenbe pawòl li.
6 I have hated them that observe lying vanities; and as for me, I have confided in Jehovah.
Ou rayi moun k'ap adore zidòl. Pou mwen menm, tout konfyans mwen se nan ou li ye.
7 I will be glad and rejoice in thy loving-kindness, for thou hast seen mine affliction; thou hast known the troubles of my soul,
M'ap kontan, m'ap fè fèt, paske ou renmen m'. Ou wè jan m'ap soufri, ou konnen nan ki pwoblèm mwen ye.
8 And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large place.
Ou pa kite lènmi m' yo mete men sou mwen, ou mete m' yon kote pou anyen pa rive m'.
9 Be gracious unto me, Jehovah, for I am in trouble: mine eye wasteth away with vexation, my soul and my belly.
Gen pitye pou mwen, Seyè, paske mwen anba tray. Figi m' fin rale, mwen kagou. Kò m' ap fin deperi afòs mwen gen lapenn.
10 For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing; my strength faileth through mine iniquity, and my bones are wasted.
Mwen pase tout lavi m' ap soufri, se tout tan m'ap plenn. Mwen santi m'ap febli paske mwen fè twòp move bagay. Tout zo nan kò m' ap fè m' mal.
11 More than to all mine oppressors, I am become exceedingly a reproach, even to my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that see me without flee from me.
Tout lènmi m' yo ap pase m' nan rizib. Vwazen m' yo ap pase m' nan betiz. Tout moun ki konnen m' yo pè m'. Lè yo wè m' nan lari, yo kouri pou mwen.
12 I am forgotten in [their] heart as a dead man; I am become like a broken vessel.
Tout moun gen tan bliye m', tankou si m' te mouri deja. Mwen tankou yon vye bagay yo voye jete.
13 For I have heard the slander of many — terror on every side — when they take counsel together against me: they plot to take away my life.
Mwen tande jan anpil moun ap pale m' mal. Kote m' pase mwen pè. Yo mete tèt yo ansanm sou do m', y'ap fè konplo pou yo touye m'.
14 But I confided in thee, Jehovah; I said, thou art my God.
Men, Seyè, se nan ou mwen mete tou konfyans mwen. Se ou ki Bondye mwen.
15 My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from my persecutors.
Lavi m' nan men ou. Delivre m' anba lènmi m' yo, anba moun k'ap pèsekite m' yo.
16 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy loving-kindness.
Se sèvi m'ap sèvi ou, tanpri, fè m' santi ou la avèk mwen. Delivre m', paske ou renmen m'.
17 Jehovah, let me not be ashamed; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, let them be silent in Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
M'ap rele ou, Seyè. Pa kite m' pran wont. Se mechan yo ki pou wont. Se pou yo mouri san di krik. (Sheol h7585)
18 Let the lying lips become dumb, which speak insolently against the righteous in pride and contempt.
Se pou yo rete san pale, moun sa yo k'ap bay manti, tout moun sa yo k'ap fè grandizè yo, k'ap fè awogans, k'ap pale mal sou moun k'ap mache dwat devan Bondye yo.
19 [Oh] how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, [which] thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee, before the sons of men!
Ala bon yo bon, bagay ou kenbe an rezèv pou moun ki gen krentif pou ou! Ala bèl yo bèl, bagay ou fè devan tout moun, lè w'ap pwoteje moun k'ap chache pwoteksyon anba zèl ou!
20 Thou keepest them concealed in the secret of thy presence from the conspiracies of man; thou hidest them in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
Ou kenbe yo la devan je ou, pou ou ka pwoteje yo anba moun k'ap pèsekite yo. Ou kache yo lakay ou pou yo pa fini ak yo anba kout lang.
21 Blessed be Jehovah; for he hath shewn me wondrously his loving-kindness in a strong city.
Lwanj pou Seyè a! Ala bèl bagay li fè pou l' moutre jan l' renmen mwen, lè m' te anba tray, lè yo te sènen m' toupatou a!
22 As for me, I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes; nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.
Mwen te pè, mwen t'ap di nan kè m': -Gen lè ou voye m' jete byen lwen ou. Men, ou te tande rèl mwen, lè m' t'ap mande ou sekou.
23 Love Jehovah, all ye his saints. Jehovah preserveth the faithful, and plentifully requiteth the proud doer.
Nou tout k'ap sèvi Seyè a, se pou nou renmen l'. Wi, Seyè a pwoteje tout moun ki kenbe fèm nan li. Men, se pa ti pini l'ap pini moun k'ap vante tèt yo.
24 Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all ye that hope in Jehovah.
Nou tout ki met espwa nou nan Seyè a, pran kouraj, kenbe fèm.
