< 2 Samuel 22 >
1 And he spoke David to Yahweh [the] words of the song this on [the] day [when] he delivered Yahweh him from [the] hand of all enemies his and from [the] hand of Saul.
Lè Seyè a te fin delivre David anba men Sayil ak anba men tout lènmi li yo, David chante chante sa a pou Seyè a.
2 And he said Yahweh [is] rock my and stronghold my and deliverer my to me.
Li di konsa: -Seyè, se ou menm ki twou wòch kote m' kache a. Se ou menm ki sèvi m' ranpa. Se ou menm ki delivre m'.
3 O God of rock my [whom] I take refuge in him shield my and [the] horn of salvation my refuge my and place of escape my O deliverer my from violence you deliver me.
Ou se Bondye mwen, se ou menm ki pwoteje m'. Se nan ou mwen mete tout konfyans mwen. Se ou ki tout defans mwen. Se fòs ou k'ap sove m'. Se anba zèl ou m' jwenn kote pou m' kache. Se ou ki delivrans mwen. Se ou ki delivre m' anba mechan yo.
4 [the one] to be praised I called out to Yahweh and from enemies my I am delivered.
Mwen rele Seyè a, li delivre m' anba lènmi m' yo. Lwanj pou Seyè a!
5 For they surrounded me [the] breakers of death torrents of worthlessness they overwhelmed me.
Lanmò te fin vlope m', mwen te pè lè m' wè tout malè sa yo tonbe sou mwen.
6 [the] cords of Sheol they surrounded me they confronted me [the] snares of death. (Sheol )
Privye lanmò te tonbe sou mwen yon sèl kou. Kote m' vire, mwen wè lanmò devan m'. (Sheol )
7 When it was distress to me I called out to Yahweh and to God my I called out and he heard from temple his voice my and cry for help my [was] in ears his.
Nan mizè mwen te ye a mwen rele Seyè a, Mwen mande Bondye mwen sekou. Kote l' chita lakay li a, li tande vwa mwen. Rèl mwen rive jouk nan zòrèy li.
8 (And it shook back and forth *Q(K)*) and it quaked the earth [the] foundations of the heavens they trembled and they shook back and forth for it burned to him.
Lè sa a, latè pran tranble, li souke. Fondasyon syèl la pran tranble. Yon sèl frison pran yo, paske Bondye te an kòlè.
9 It went up smoke in nose his and fire from mouth his it consumed coals they burned from him.
Lafimen t'ap soti nan twou nen li. Yon gwo flanm dife ak moso chabon tou limen t'ap soti nan bouch li.
10 And he bowed [the] heavens and he came down and thick darkness [was] under feet his.
Li bese syèl la, li desann ak yon gwo nwaj nwa anba pye li.
11 And he rode on a cherub and he flew and he appeared on [the] wings of [the] wind.
Li moute sou do yon zanj cheriben, li t'ap vole. Yon kouran van t'ap pouse l' ale.
12 And he put darkness around him shelters a sieve of waters dark clouds of clouds.
Li te kache kò l' nan fènwa. Yon gwo nwaj pwès plen dlo te vlope l' toupatou.
13 From [the] brightness before him they burned coals of fire.
Anpil chabon dife tou limen t'ap soti nan gwo limyè ki t'ap klere devan li an.
14 He thundered from heaven Yahweh and [the] Most High he gave voice his.
Seyè a pran gwonde nan syèl la. Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la fè tout moun tande vwa li.
15 And he sent arrows and he scattered them [with] lightning (and he routed [them]. *Q(K)*)
Li voye flèch li yo, li gaye tout lènmi m' yo, li fè yo tout kouri ak kout zèklè.
16 And they appeared [the] channels of [the] sea they were uncovered [the] foundations of [the] world at [the] rebuke of Yahweh from [the] breathing of [the] breath of nose his.
Lè ou an kòlè, Seyè, van soti ak fòs nan twou nen ou. Lè konsa, moun wè fon lanmè a, fondasyon latè a parèt aklè.
17 He stretched out from a high place he took hold of me he drew me from waters many.
Seyè a rete nan syèl la, li lonje men l', li pran m'. Li rale m' soti nan mitan gwo dlo yo.
18 He rescued me from enemy my mighty from [those who] hate me for they were [too] strong for me.
Li delivre m' anba gwo lènmi m' yo, anba tout moun sa yo ki te rayi m', epi ki te pi fò pase m'.
19 They confronted me in [the] day of calamity my and he was Yahweh a support of me.
Lè m' te nan tray, yo pwofite atake m'. Men, Seyè a te kenbe m'.
20 And he brought out to roomy place me he rescued me for he delighted in me.
Li wete m' nan move pa a. Li delivre m' paske li renmen m'.
21 He dealt with me Yahweh according to righteousness my according to [the] cleanness of hands my he repaid to me.
Seyè a ban m' sa m' merite, paske li wè m' mache dwat devan li. Li ban m' benediksyon paske li wè mwen inonsan.
22 For I have kept [the] ways of Yahweh and not I have acted wickedly from God my.
Mwen te obeyi lalwa Seyè a, mwen pa janm vire do bay Bondye.
23 For all (judgments his *Q(K)*) [are] to before me and statutes his not I turn aside from it.
Mwen fè tou sa ki nan lalwa li, mwen pa janm dezobeyi kòmandman li yo.
24 And I was blameless to him and I kept myself! from iniquity my.
Li konnen mwen pa antò. Mwen kenbe kò m' pou m' pa fè sa ki mal.
25 And he repaid Yahweh to me according to righteousness my according to cleanness my to before eyes his.
Se konsa li ban m' sa m' merite, paske mwen mache dwat devan li, paske li wè mwen inonsan.
26 With a faithful [person] you show yourself faithful with a mighty [man] blameless you show yourself blameless.
Ou menm, Seyè, ou kenbe pawòl ou ak moun ki kenbe pawòl yo, ou bon ak moun ki bon.
27 With [one who] purifies himself you show yourself pure and with a perverse [person] you show yourself twisted.
Ou pa fè ipokrit ak moun ki pa fè ipokrit avè ou, men ou malen ak moun ki malen.
28 And a people afflicted you save and eyes your [are] on haughty [people] you bring [them] low.
Ou sove moun ki soumèt yo devan ou. Men, ou annik gade moun ki gen lògèy yo, ou desann yo.
29 For you [are] lamp my O Yahweh and Yahweh he lightens darkness my.
Seyè, ou se limyè mwen. Se ou ki wete m' nan fènwa kote m' te ye a.
30 For by you I run a marauding band by God my I leap over a wall.
Avè ou, mwen fonse sou bann lènmi m' yo ki ame jouk nan dan. Avè ou, mwen eskalade miray ki sèvi yo defans.
31 God [is] blameless way his [the] word of Yahweh [is] refined [is] a shield he for all those [who] seek refuge in him.
Bondye o! Tou sa ou fè bon nèt ale. Ou pa gen de pawòl. Ou pwoteje tout moun ki chache pwoteksyon anba zèl ou.
32 For who? [is] God except Yahweh and who? [is] a rock except God our.
Ki moun ki Bondye si se pa Seyè a? Ki moun ki defans nou si se pa Bondye nou an?
33 God [is] place of refuge my strength and he set free a blameless [person] (way my. *Q(K)*)
Se Bondye ki pwoteje m' avè fòs li. Li fè m' mennen yon lavi san repwòch.
34 [he is] making (Feet my *Q(K)*) like does and on high places my he makes stand firm me.
Li asire pye m' tankou pye kabrit, li fè m' mache sou mòn yo san m' pa tonbe.
35 [he has] trained Hands my for battle and it will stretch a bow of bronze arms my.
Li moutre m' jan pou m' goumen. Li ban m' fòs pou m' sèvi ak pi gwo banza ki genyen.
36 And you gave to me [the] shield of salvation your and answering your you make great me.
Se ou menm, Seyè, ki pwoteje m'. Se ou ki sove m'. Si m' kapab leve kanpe, se paske ou renmen m'.
37 You enlarge step[s] my under me and not they slip ankles my.
Ou pa kite yo bare wout mwen. Mwen pa janm pèdi pye.
38 Let me pursue enemies my and I destroyed them and not I returned until brought to an end them.
Mwen kouri dèyè lènmi m' yo, mwen bat yo. Mwen pa tounen toutan mwen pa fin kraze yo nèt.
39 And I brought to an end them and I shattered them and not they will rise! and they fell under feet my.
Mwen jete yo atè, m' kraze yo, yo pa ka leve. Yo tonbe, mwen mete pye m' sou kou yo.
40 And you have girded me strength for battle you make bow down [those who] rise against me under me.
Ou ban m' kont fòs pou m' goumen. Ou fè lènmi m' yo mande m' padon.
41 And enemies my you have given to me a neck [those who] hate me and I destroyed them.
Ou fè yo kouri devan m'. Mwen disparèt tout moun ki rayi m' yo.
42 They looked and there not [was] a deliverer to Yahweh and not he answered them.
Y'ap mande sekou, men pa gen moun ki ka sove yo. Y'ap rele Seyè a, men li pa reponn yo.
43 And I beat fine them like [the] dust of [the] earth like [the] mud of [the] streets I pulverized them I beat out them.
Mwen kraze yo fè yo tounen pousyè. M' pilonnen yo, m' mache sou yo tankou sou labou nan lari.
44 And you rescued me from [the] strifes of people my you kept me to [the] head of [the] nations a people [whom] not I knew they served me.
Ou delivre m' anba pèp rebèl sa a. Ou fè m' rete chèf pou m' gouvènen tout nasyon yo tou. Pèp mwen pa t' konnen, se yo menm k'ap sèvi m'.
45 Sons of foreignness they cringed to me to hear an ear they became obedient to me.
Moun lòt peyi yo ap achte figi m'. Kou yo tande vwa m', yo obeyi m'.
46 Sons of foreignness they withered and they may girdethemselves from strongholds their.
Yo pèdi tout kouraj yo. Yo soti kote yo te kache a, y'ap tranble kou fèy bwa.
47 [is] living Yahweh and [be] blessed rock my and may he be exalted [the] God of [the] rock of salvation my.
Konpliman pou Seyè a! Lwanj pou moun ki pran defans mwen an! Se Bondye ki delivre m', se li menm ki pwoteje m'. Ann fè konnen jan li gen pouvwa!
48 God [is] the [one who] gives vengeance to me and [is] bringing down peoples under me.
Se Bondye ki pran revanj mwen. Se li ki mete pèp yo anba pye mwen.
49 And [is] bringing out me from enemies my and from [those who] rise against me you lift up me from a man of violence you rescue me.
Ou sove m' anba men lènmi m' yo. Ou wete m' anba men moun ki t'ap konbat mwen yo. Ou delivre m' anba ansasen yo.
50 There-fore I will give thanks you O Yahweh among the nations and to name your I will sing praise.
Se poutèt sa m'a fè moun lòt nasyon yo konnen ki moun ou ye. m'a chante pou fè lwanj ou.
51 ([the] tower *Q(K)*) Of [the] salvation of king his and [who] does covenant loyalty to anointed his to David and to offspring his until perpetuity.
Bondye delivre wa li a anpil fwa. Li moutre jan li pa janm sispann renmen David, moun li chwazi a, ansanm ak pitit pitit li yo pou tout tan.
