< Psalms 13 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Until when, O YHWH, Do You forget me forever? Until when do You hide Your face from me?
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Konbe tan ankò w'a bliye m', Seyè? Gen lè ou bliye m' nèt? Konbe tan ankò m'a rete san m' pa wè ou?
2 Until when do I set counsels in my soul, [With] sorrow in my heart daily? Until when is my enemy exalted over me?
Konbe tan ankò pou m' soufri? Konbe tan ankò pou m' gen lapenn nan kè mwen, pou m' gen lapenn lajounen kou lannwit? Konbe tan ankò lènmi m' yo va pilonnen m' anba pye yo?
3 Look attentively; Answer me, O YHWH, my God, Enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep in death,
Gade m' non, Seyè! Reponn mwen non, Bondye mwen! Kenbe m' pou m' pa mouri.
4 Lest my enemy say, “I overcame him,” My adversaries rejoice when I am moved.
Konsa, moun k'ap pèsekite m' yo p'ap ka di: Nou fini avè l'! Yo p'ap gen chans wè m' tonbe pou yo kontan!
5 And I have trusted in Your kindness, My heart rejoices in Your salvation.
Pou mwen menm, se sou ou mwen konte, paske ou renmen m' anpil. Kè m' kontan, paske ou delivre mwen.
6 I sing to YHWH, For He has conferred benefits on me!
M'ap chante pou Seyè a, paske li te bon pou mwen.
