Psalms 52
1 [For the Chief Musician. A contemplation by David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, "David has come to Abimelech's house."] Why do you boast of mischief, mighty man? God's loving kindness endures continually.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon chante David te ekri lè Doèg, moun peyi Edon, te al pote rapò bay Sayil pou fè l' konnen David te al kache lakay Akimelèk. Poukisa, ou menm gwo chèf, w'ap vante tèt ou konsa lè ou fè sa ki mal! renmen Bondye a pa janm chanje.
2 Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
W'ap kalkile ki jan pou fè moun mal. Lang ou tankou yon razwa byen file, ou toujou ap fè manti sou moun.
3 You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking the truth. (Selah)
Ou pito fè mal pase pou ou fè byen. Ou pito bay manti pase ou di verite.
4 You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue.
Ou renmen di pawòl ki pou fè moun mal, lang vipè!
5 God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah)
Se poutèt sa, Bondye gen pou fini nèt avè ou, l'ap mete men sou ou, l'ap rale ou soti anndan kay ou. L'ap wete ou nan mitan moun ki vivan yo.
6 The righteous also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying,
Moun k'ap mache dwat yo va wè sa, y'a gen krentif pou Bondye. Men y'a pase ou nan betiz, y'a di:
7 "Look, this is the man who did not make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and was confident in his desire."
Men moun ki te derefize chache pwoteksyon bò kot Bondye a. Li te pito mete tout konfyans li nan gwo richès li yo. Li te pito ap fè grandizè pou sa li fè ki mal.
8 But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God's house. I trust in God's loving kindness forever and ever.
Men, mwen tankou yon bèl pye oliv tou vèt nan kay Bondye a. M'ap toujou mete tout konfyans mwen nan li, paske li p'ap janm sispann renmen mwen.
9 I will give you thanks forever, because you have done it. I will hope in your name, for it is good, in the presence of your faithful ones.
M'ap toujou di ou mèsi pou sa ou fè, Bondye. Tout espwa mwen se nan ou li ye. M'ap kanpe nan mitan moun k'ap sevi ou yo pou m' fè konnen jan ou bon.
