Psalms 72
1 A psalm on Solomon.
Se yon sòm Salomon. Bondye, moutre wa a jan pou l' dirije tankou ou! Bay pitit wa a pouvwa pou l' gouvènen jan ou vle l' la!
2 Give to the king thy judgment, O God: and to the king’s son thy justice: To judge thy people with justice, and thy poor with judgment.
Konsa, l'a gouvènen pèp ou a san patipri, l'a gouvènen malere ou yo jan sa dwe fèt.
3 Let the mountains receive peace for the people: and the hills justice.
Nan tout mòn peyi a, moun va viv byen yonn ak lòt. p'ap gen lenjistis nan okenn ti mòn peyi a.
4 He shall judge the poor of the people, and he shall save the children of the poor: and he shall humble the oppressor.
Wa a va defann kòz malere ki nan peyi a. L'a wete pitit pòv malere yo nan mizè yo ye a. L'a kraze moun k'ap peze pèp la.
5 And he shall continue with the sun, and before the moon, throughout all generations.
Se pou l' viv lontan, tout tan va gen solèy ak lalin pou bay limyè. Wi, se pou li viv tout tan tout tan.
6 He shall come down like rain upon the fleece; and as showers falling gently upon the earth.
Se pou wa a tankou lapli k'ap tonbe nan jaden, tankou gwo lapli k'ap wouze tè a.
7 In his days shall justice spring up, and abundance of peace, till the moon be taken sway.
Sou reny li, ap gen jistis toupatou. Tout moun va viv byen yonn ak lòt tout tan va gen lalin pou bay limyè.
8 And he shall rule from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
L'ap gouvènen depi yon lanmè jouk nan lòt lanmè a, depi larivyè Lefrat jouk nan dènye bout latè a.
9 Before him the Ethiopians shall fall down: and his enemies shall lick the ground.
Moun ki rete nan dezè a pral soumèt devan li, lènmi l' yo pral manje pousyè.
10 The kings of Tharsis and the islands shall offer presents: the kings of the Arabians and of Saba shall bring gifts:
Wa peyi Tasis ak wa zile yo va vin ofri l' kado. Wa peyi Saba ak wa peyi Seba va pote kado ba li.
11 And all kings of the earth shall adore him: all nations shall serve him.
Wa tout lòt peyi yo va soumèt devan li. Tout lòt peyi yo va sèvi l'.
12 For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the needy that had no helper.
L'a delivre pòv yo lè yo rele nan pye li. L'a delivre tout malere ki san sekou.
13 He shall spare the poor and needy: and he shall save the souls of the poor.
L'a gen pitye pou pòv malere yo. L'a sove lavi tout moun ki nan bezwen.
14 He shall redeem their souls from usuries and iniquity: and their names shall be honourable in his sight.
L'a delivre yo anba men moun k'ap peze yo, anba men moun k'ap fè yo mechanste. Lavi moun sa yo gen anpil valè pou li!
15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Arabia, for him they shall always adore: they shall bless him all the day.
Se pou wa a viv lontan! Y'a ba li lò ki soti nan peyi Saba. Y'a toujou lapriyè pou li. Y'a mande pou Bondye beni li chak jou.
16 And there shall be a firmament on the earth on the tops of mountains, above Libanus shall the fruit thereof be exalted: and they of the city shall flourish like the grass of the earth.
Se pou jaden kouvri tout peyi a, jouk sou tèt mòn yo. Se pou yo donnen tankou jaden peyi Liban. Se pou lavil yo plen moun tankou zèb k'ap pouse nan jaden.
17 Let his name be blessed for evermore: his name continueth before the sun. And in him shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed: all nations shall magnify him.
Se pou yo pa janm bliye non li. Toutotan va gen solèy pou klere tè a, se pou y'ap nonmen non li. Se pou tout nasyon fè lwanj li. Se pou tout moun mande Bondye pou l' beni yo menm jan li beni wa a.
18 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone doth wonderful things.
Fè lwanj Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Se li menm sèl ki ka fè bèl mèvèy sa yo.
19 And blessed be the name of his majesty for ever: and the whole earth shall be filled with his majesty. So be it. So be it.
Fè lwanj li pou gwo pouvwa li. Se pou toupatou sou latè yo rekonèt gwo pouvwa li. Wi, se vre! Amèn!
20 The praises of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.
Avèk sòm sa a, nou fini ak lapriyè David, pitit Izayi a, te fè.
