Psalms 7
1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning Cush a Benjamite. O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me;
Yon Sòm David, ke li te chante a SENYÈ a pou yon moun tribi Benjamin ki te rele Cush. O SENYÈ Bondye mwen an, nan Ou mwen kache. Sove mwen de tout (sila) k ap kouri dèyè m yo e fè m sekou,
2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
sof ke li ta chire nanm mwen tankou yon lyon, epi rale m akote pandan pa gen moun pou delivre m.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
O SENYÈ mwen, si mwen menm te fè sa, si gen enjistis nan men m,
4 If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness;
si mwen te rekonpanse mal a zanmi mwen, oswa te piyaje (sila) ki te lènmi mwen a san koz la,
5 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
kite lènmi an kouri dèyè nanm mwen jiskaske li pran l, epi kite li foule lavi mwen jis atè. Fè glwa mwen kouche nèt nan pousyè a. Tan
6 Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded.
Leve, O SENYÈ, nan kòlè Ou; leve Ou menm kont raj ladvèsè mwen yo. Leve Ou menm pou mwen; Ou menm ki te etabli jijman an.
7 And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high.
Kite asanble a tout pèp yo antoure Ou. Gouvènen yo, depi an wo.
8 O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
Se SENYÈ a ki jije pèp yo. Fè m jistis O SENYÈ, selon ladwati mwen ak jan mwen kanpe fèm.
9 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins.
Alò, mete fen a mechanste malfektè yo, men etabli (sila) ki dwat yo. Paske se ladwati Bondye ki fè prèv nan kè avèk panse moun.
10 My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart.
Boukliye mwen se avèk Bondye, ki sove (sila) ki dwat yo.
11 God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
Bondye se yon jij ki jis e ki rayi enjistis chak jou.
12 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready;
Si yon nonm pa repanti, La p file nepe Li. Li deja koube banza Li; Li prèt.
13 He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp.
Anplis, Li fin prepare pou kont Li zam mòtèl yo. Li fè flèch ak shaf ki brile yo.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood.
Gade byen, l ap lite nan mechanste. Wi, li plante jèm mechanste a, epi li vin bay nesans a tout sa ki fo.
15 He hath digged a pit, and hollowed it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
Li te fouye yon twou, kreve l nèt, e vin tonbe nan twou ke li te fè a.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
Mechanste li va retounen sou pwòp tèt li, e vyolans pa l ap desann sou pwòp fwon li.
17 I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Mwen va bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a selon ladwati Li. Mwen va chante lwanj a non SENYÈ a, Toupwisan an.
