< Psalms 55 >
1 For the end, among Hymns of instruction by David. Listen, O God, to my prayer; and disregard not my supplication.
Pou direktè koral la; sou enstriman ak kòd yo Yon Refleksyon David Prete zòrèy a lapriyè mwen, O Bondye. Pa kache Ou menm a siplikasyon mwen yo.
2 Attend to me, and listen to me: I was grieved in my (meditation) and troubled;
Prete atansyon a mwen e reponn mwen. Mwen pa alèz nan plent mwen yo. Anverite, mwen deranje nèt
3 because of the voice of the enemy, and because of the oppression of the sinner: for they brought iniquity against me, and were wrathfully angry with me.
akoz vwa lènmi an, akoz presyon mechan an. Paske yo pote twoub desann sou mwen. Nan kòlè yo, yo pote rankin kont mwen.
4 My heart was troubled within me; and the fear of death fell upon me.
Kè m twouble anndan m. Sezisman lanmò fin tonbe sou mwen.
5 Fear and trembling came upon me, and darkness covered me.
Laperèz avèk tranbleman fin rive sou mwen. Mwen etone jiskaske m debòde.
6 And I said, O that I had wings as [those] of a dove! then would I flee away, and be at rest.
Mwen te di: “O ke m te gen zèl kon toutrèl la! Konsa, mwen ta sove ale pou twouve repo. Mwen ta demere nan dezè a.”
7 Behold! I have fled afar off, and lodged in the wilderness. (Pause)
Tande byen, mwen ta rive byen lwen. Mwen ta ale rete nan savann nan. Tan
8 I waited for him that should deliver me from distress of spirit and tempest.
Mwen ta fè vit rive kote pou m kache kont van tanpèt la, kont move tan an.
9 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen iniquity and gain saying in the city.
Mete yo nan konfizyon, O SENYÈ, divize lang yo, paske mwen te wè vyolans avèk goumen nan vil la.
10 Day and night he shall go round about it upon its walls: iniquity and sorrow and unrighteousness [are] in the midst of it;
Lajounen kon lannwit, yo antoure vil la sou miray li yo. Inikite avèk mechanste nan mitan li.
11 and usury and craft have not failed from its streets.
Destriksyon ladann. Opresyon avèk desepsyon pa janm kite lari li yo.
12 For if an enemy had reproached me, I would have endured it; and if one who hated [me] had spoken vauntingly against me, I would have hid myself from him.
Paske se pa lènmi an ki fè m repwòch. Konsa, mwen ta kab sipòte l. Ni se pa yon moun ki rayi mwen ki vin leve kont mwen. Konsa, mwen ta kab kache de li.
13 But you, O man like minded, my guide, and my acquaintance,
Men se ou menm, yon nonm parèy mwen, konpanyen mwen ak zanmi mwen.
14 who in companionship with me sweetened [our] food: we walked in the house of God in concord.
Nou menm, ki te fè kominyon dous ansanm, ki te mache nan kay Bondye a nan mitan tout pèp la.
15 Let death come upon them, and let them go down alive into Hades, for iniquity is in their dwellings, in the midst of them. (Sheol )
Pou sa a Kite lanmò rive sibitman sou yo. Kite yo desann tou vivan kote mò yo ye. Paske mechanste a nan abitasyon yo, pami yo, kote yo rete a. (Sheol )
16 I cried to God, and the Lord listened to me.
Pou mwen, mwen va rele Bondye. SENYÈ a va sove mwen.
17 Evening, and morning, and at noon I will declare and make known [my wants]: and he shall hear my voice.
Nan aswè, nan maten ak midi, mwen va plenyen e bougonnen. Li va tande vwa m.
18 He shall deliver my soul in peace from them that draw near to me: for they were with me in many [cases].
Li te rachte nanm mwen anpè, soti nan batay ki kont mwen an, malgre yo anpil, k ap lite avè m yo.
19 God shall hear, and bring them low, [even] he that has existed from eternity. (Pause) For they suffer no reverse, and [therefore] they have not feared God.
Bondye ki sou fotèy L jis pou tout tan, va tande e reponn yo. Tan Nan (sila) pa gen chanjman an. Yo pa gen krent Bondye a.
20 He has reached forth his hand for retribution; they have profaned his covenant.
Li te lonje men li kont moun ki te nan lapè avèk li a. Li te vyole akò li a.
21 They were scattered at the anger of his countenance, and his heart drew near them. His words were smoother than oil, yet are they darts.
Pawòl li te pi dous pase bè, men ak kè, li te fè lagè. Pawòl li yo te pi dous pase lwil, men se nepe rale yo te ye.
22 Cast your care upon the Lord, and he shall sustain you; he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
Voye fado ou sou SENYÈ a, e Li va bay ou soutyen. Li p ap janm kite moun ladwati yo ebranle.
23 But you, O God, shall bring them down to the pit of destruction; bloody and crafty men shall not live out half their days; but I will hope in you, O Lord.
Men Ou menm, O Bondye, va rale yo desann nan fòs destriksyon an. Moun ki vèse san e ki bay manti p ap rive fè mwatye nan jou yo. Men mwen menm va mete konfyans nan Ou.
