Psalms 54

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a Maskil of David, When the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Behold, David is hiding himself with us.” O God, by thy name save me, and by thy strength grant me justice.

Pou direktè koral la; sou enstriman ak kòd yo. Yon sòm a David, lè Zifyen yo te vin di Saül: “Èske David pa kache pami nou?” Sove mwen, O Bondye, ak non Ou e fè vanjans mwen ak pouvwa Ou.

2 O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.

Koute lapriyè mwen, O Bondye. Prete zòrèy a pawòl a bouch mwen.

3 For strangers [to goodness] are risen up against me, and powerful oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)

Paske etranje yo fin leve kont mwen. Moun vyolans yo te chache lavi mwen. Yo pa t mete Bondye devan yo.

4 Behold, God is a helper unto me: the Lord is among those that uphold my soul.

Gade byen, Bondye se èd mwen. SENYÈ a se soutyen a nanm mwen.

5 He will cause the evil to return upon those that regard me with envy: in thy truth cut them off.

Li va rekonpanse mal a lènmi mwen yo. Detwi yo nan fidelite Ou.

6 I will liberally sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Lord; for it is good.

Avèk bòn volonte, mwen va fè sakrifis a Ou. Mwen va bay remèsiman a non Ou, O SENYÈ, paske li bon.

7 For out of all distress hath he delivered me: and my eye hath seen [its desire] on my enemies.

Paske Li te delivre mwen nan tout twoub. Konsa, zye mwen te wè ak kè kontan, defèt lènmi m yo.
