Psalms 16
1 A miktam of David protect me O God for I have taken refuge in you.
Sè yon kantik David. Pwoteje m', Bondye, paske se bò kote ou m'ap chache pwoteksyon.
2 You [fem] said to Yahweh [are the] Lord you good my not [is] on you.
Mwen di Seyè a: -Se ou ki sèl Mèt mwen. Se ou menm ki tout mwen. Pa gen pase ou!
3 To [the] holy [ones] who [are] in the land they and [the] majestic [ones] [whom] all delight my [is] in them.
Tout plezi m' se pou m' toujou la avè moun k'ap sèvi Seyè a nan peyi a.
4 They will increase sorrows their [those who] another [god] they hurried after not I will pour out drink offerings their from blood and not I will take names their on lips my.
Moun k'ap kouri dèyè tout lòt bondye yo, se traka y'ap chache bay tèt yo. Mwen p'ap mele nan ofrann bèt y'ap fè. Mwen p'ap janm nonmen non bondye sa yo.
5 Yahweh [is] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
Seyè, se ou menm ki tout byen mwen. Se ou ki ban m' tou sa m' merite. Lavi m' nan men ou.
6 Boundary lines they have fallen to me in pleasant [places] also an inheritance it is beautiful on me.
Ala yon bèl eritaj ki vin pou mwen! Ala kontan mwen kontan pou pòsyon pa m' lan!
7 I will bless Yahweh who he has counseled me also nights they have instructed me kidneys my.
M'ap fè lwanj Seyè a paske li ban m' bon konsèy. Menm lannwit, konsyans mwen di m' sa pou m' fè.
8 I have placed Yahweh to before me continually for [he is] from right [hand] my not I will be shaken.
Mwen toujou mete Seyè a devan je m'. Paske li toujou bò kote m'. Anyen pa ka brannen m'.
9 Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
Se poutèt sa, kè m' kontan anpil. Mwen santi se tout tan mwen ta chante. Ata kò mwen m'ap poze ak konfyans nan Bondye.
10 For - not you will abandon life my to Sheol not you will permit faithful [one] your to see [the] pit. (Sheol h7585)
Paske ou p'ap kite m' kote mò yo ye a, ou p'ap penmèt moun k'ap sèvi ou la pouri anba tè. (Sheol h7585)
11 You will make known to me [the] path of life abundance of gladness [are] with presence your pleasant [things] [are] at right [hand] your perpetuity.
W'a fè m' konnen chemen ki bay lavi a. Paske ou la avè m', mwen pa manke kontan. Bò kote ou, Seyè, se yon plèzi ki p'ap janm fini.
