Psalms 21
1 Yahweh, ([I], your king am glad/the king is glad) because you have caused me/him to be strong. (I rejoice/he rejoices) greatly because you have rescued me/him [from my/his enemies].
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Wa a kontan, Seyè, dèske ou te ba li fòs kouraj. Wa a kontan nèt dèske ou fè l' genyen batay la.
2 You have given me/him the things that I/he [SYN] desired and you have not refused to do what I requested you to do.
Ou ba li tou sa l' te renmen. Ou pa t' refize l' sa l' te mande ou.
3 In answer to my/his prayer, you enabled me/him to succeed and prosper. You placed a gold crown on my/his head.
Ou vin bò kote l' avèk anpil benediksyon, ou mete yon kouwòn fèt ak bon lò sou tèt li.
4 I/He asked you to enable me/him to live [for a long time], and that is what you gave me/him, a very long [HYP] life.
Li mande ou lavi, ou ba li l'. Ou ba l' yon lavi ki long, yon lavi ki p'ap janm fini.
5 (I am/He is) greatly honored because you have helped me/him to defeat my/his enemies; you have made me/him famous.
Y'ap fè gwo lwanj pou li, paske ou ede l', ou fè yo respekte l', ou ba li bèl pozisyon,
6 You will bless me/him forever, and you have caused me/him to be joyful in your presence.
Ou mete benediksyon ou sou li pou tout tan. Ou fè kè l' kontan paske ou la avè l'.
7 Yahweh, you are God Almighty, and (I trust/the king trusts) in you. Because you faithfully love me/him, disastrous things will never happen to me/him.
Wa a mete konfyans li nan Seyè a. Gremesi Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la, wa a la pou tout tan.
8 You will enable me/him to capture [MTY] all my/his enemies and all those who hate me/him.
Wa a ap mete men l' sou tout lènmi l' yo, l'ap mache pran tout moun ki pa vle wè l' yo.
9 When you appear, you will throw them into a fiery furnace. Because you are angry [with them], you will get rid of them; the fire will burn them up.
Lè w'a parèt, w'ap detwi yo tankou yon gwo boukan dife. Lè Seyè a ankòlè, se fini l'ap fini ak yo, dife ap boule yo nèt.
10 You will remove their children from this earth; their descendants will all disappear.
W'ap disparèt tout pitit yo sou latè, w'ap disparèt tout ras yo pami lèzòm.
11 They planned to harm you, but what they plan will never succeed.
Y'ap fè move plan, y'ap fè konplo sou wa a, men sa p'ap mache pou yo.
12 You will cause them to run away [IDM] by shooting arrows at them.
L'ap tire flèch li sou yo, l'ap fè yo kouri ale.
13 Yahweh, show us that you are very strong! When you do that, while we sing we will praise you because you are very powerful.
Seyè, leve non. Fè yo wè fòs ou! N'a chante, n'a fè lwanj pou jan ou gen pouvwa!
