< Psalms 72 >
1 [By Solomon.] God, give the king your justice; your righteousness to the royal son.
Yon Sòm a Salomon Bay a wa a sajès lajistis Ou, O Bondye, ak ladwati Ou a fis a wa a.
2 He will judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.
Li va jije pèp Ou a avèk ladwati, e aflije Ou yo, avèk jistis.
3 The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people. The hills bring the fruit of righteousness.
Mòn yo va pote lapè a pèp la, e kolin yo, fwi ladwati a.
4 He will judge the poor of the people. He will save the children of the needy, and will break the oppressor in pieces.
Li va jije malere a pèp la. Li va fè sekou pou pitit a malere yo, e kraze opresè a an mòso.
5 They shall fear you while the sun endures; and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
Yo va krent Ou pou tout tan ke solèy la klere ak tout tan ke genyen lalin, pandan tout jenerasyon yo.
6 He will come down like rain on the mown grass, as showers that water the earth.
Li va desann tankou lapli sou chan zèb fenk koupe yo, tankou farinaj ki wouze tè a.
7 In his days, the righteous shall flourish, and abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.
Nan jou li yo, moun ladwati yo va fleri, avèk lapè an abondans jiskaske lalin nan pa wè ankò.
8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, from the River to the farthest parts of the earth.
Anplis, l ap renye jiskaske yon lanmè rive nan yon lòt lanmè a, e soti nan Rivyè a jis rive nan dènye pwent tè a.
9 Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him. His enemies shall lick the dust.
Pèp ki abite nan dezè a va bese devan l, e lènmi li yo va niche pousyè a.
10 The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute. The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
Wa a Tarsis yo avèk lil yo va pote kado. Wa a Séba avèk Saba yo ap ofri kado.
11 Yes, all kings shall fall down before him. All nations shall serve him.
Konsa, tout wa yo va bese ba devan l, pou tout nasyon yo sèvi li.
12 For he will deliver the needy when he cries; the poor, who has no helper.
Paske li va delivre malere a lè l kriye sekou; aflije a tou, lè l san soutyen an.
13 He will have pity on the poor and needy. He will save the souls of the needy.
Li va gen mizerikòd sou malere a avèk endijan an. Konsa, lavi a pòv yo, li va sove.
14 He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight.
Li va rachte lavi yo soti nan opresyon avèk vyolans, e san yo va chè nan zye Li.
15 And he shall live, and the gold of Sheba shall be given to him. Men shall pray for him continually. He shall bless him all day long.
Konsa, li va viv, e lò a Séba va bay a li menm. Moun va priye pou li san rete. Yo va beni li tout lajounen.
16 There shall be abundance of grain throughout the land. Its fruit sways like Lebanon. Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
Va genyen anpil sereyal sou tout kolin peye a, fwi li yo k ap vannen nan van tankou pye sèd a Liban yo. Sa ki nan vil yo va fleri tankou vèdi latè.
17 His name endures forever. His name continues as long as the sun. Men shall be blessed by him. All nations will call him blessed.
Non li va dire jis pou tout tan. Non li va la toutotan solèy la ap briye a. Tout lezòm va beni pa li. Tout nasyon yo va rele li beni.
18 Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel, who alone does marvelous deeds.
Beni se SENYÈ Bondye a, Bondye Israël la! Li sèl ki fè mèvèy!
19 Blessed be his glorious name forever. Let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and amen.
Beni se non laglwa Li jis pou tout tan! Ke tout tè a kapab ranpli ak glwa Li! Amen e amen.
20 This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse.
Priyè yo a David, fis la a Jesse fini.
