Psalms 9
1 To the chief Musician. Upon Muthlabben. A Psalm of David. I will praise Jehovah with my whole heart; I will recount all thy marvellous works.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Sou menm lè ak chante ki di: Lanmò pitit gason an. Se yon sòm David. M'a fè lwanj ou ak tout kè m', Seyè. M'a rakonte tout bèl mèvèy ou yo.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee; I will sing forth thy name, O Most High.
Se ou menm k'ap fè m' chante, se ou menm k'ap fè kè m' kontan. Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la, m'a chante lwanj ou.
3 When mine enemies turned back, they stumbled and perished at thy presence:
Parèt ou parèt, lènmi m' yo fè bak. Yo pran tranble, yo tonbe, yo mouri.
4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause. Thou sittest on the throne, judging righteously.
Tankou yon jij ki san patipri, ou chita sou fotèy ou. ou fè m' jistis, ou defann kòz mwen.
5 Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
Ou regle moun lòt nasyon yo, ou detwi mechan yo. Ou efase non yo nèt pou tout tan.
6 O enemy! destructions are ended for ever. — Thou hast also destroyed cities, even the remembrance of them hath perished.
Pa gen lènmi ankò, yo fini nèt. Ata lavil yo ou vide atè. Pa gen anyen pou fè moun chonje yo ankò.
7 But Jehovah sitteth for ever; he hath ordained his throne for judgment.
Men Seyè a, se wa li ye pou tout tan. Li mete fotèy li la pou l' fè jistis.
8 And it is he that will judge the world with righteousness; he shall execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.
Li gouvènen tout bagay avèk jistis. Li jije tout moun san patipri.
9 And Jehovah will be a refuge to the oppressed one, a refuge in times of distress.
Moun y'ap peze yo, se bò kote Seyè a yo jwenn pwoteksyon. Se la yo jwenn yon kote pou yo kache, lè yo nan tray.
10 And they that know thy name will confide in thee; for thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Moun ki konnen ou, Seyè, y'ap mete konfyans yo nan ou. Paske, ou pa lage moun k'ap chache ou.
11 Sing psalms to Jehovah who dwelleth in Zion; tell among the peoples his doings.
Ann fè lwanj Seyè a k'ap gouvènen sou mòn Siyon an. Ann fè tout nasyon yo konnen sa li te fè.
12 For when he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them; the cry of the afflicted ones hath he not forgotten.
Bondye chonje moun k'ap soufri yo, li pa bliye rèl malere yo, li pini moun ki fè yo mal.
13 Be gracious unto me, O Jehovah; consider mine affliction from them that hate me, lifting me up from the gates of death:
Gen pitye pou mwen, Seyè! Gade nan ki mizè moun ki rayi m' yo mete m'. vin sove m'! Pa kite m' mouri, Seyè,
14 That I may declare all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will be joyful in thy salvation.
pou m' ka kanpe devan moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, pou m' di yo poukisa m'ap fè lwanj ou. M'ap kontan nèt, paske ou te delivre m'.
15 The nations are sunk down in the pit [that] they made; in the net that they hid is their own foot taken.
Moun lòt nasyon yo fouye yon gwo twou: se yo menm ki tonbe ladan li. Yo tann yon pèlen: se pye yo ki pran ladan li.
16 Jehovah is known [by] the judgment he hath executed: the wicked is ensnared in the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
Seyè a fè yo konnen ki moun li ye, li jije yo san patipri. Sa mechan yo fè a tounen kont yo.
Tout mechan yo gen pou mouri. Tout moun ki bliye gen Bondye gen pou mouri tou. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the needy one shall not be forgotten alway; the hope of the meek shall not perish for ever.
Se pa tout tan yo ka bliye moun ki nan mizè. Se pa tout tan yo ka wete espwa moun ki nan lafliksyon.
19 Arise, Jehovah; let not man prevail: let the nations be judged in thy sight.
Leve non, Seyè! Pa kite lèzòm genyen batay la! Mennen moun lòt nasyon yo vin jije devan ou.
20 Put them in fear, Jehovah: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. (Selah)
Fè kè yo kase, Seyè! Fè yo konnen se moun ase yo ye.
