Psalms 63
1 A Psalm by David, when he was in the desert of Judah. God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.
Se yon sòm David te ekri lè li te nan dezè peyi Jida a. Bondye, se ou ki Bondye mwen. Jan m' anvi wè ou! Jan m' ap tann ou sa a! Se tout kò m' k'ap mande pou ou, tankou tè sèk nan solèy k'ap tann lapli.
2 So I have seen you in the sanctuary, watching your power and your glory.
Fè m' antre kote ki apa pou ou nan kay ou a pou m' wè ou, pou m' wè jan ou gen pouvwa, jan ou merite pou yo fè lwanj ou.
3 Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.
renmen ou gen pou nou an pi bon pase lavi. Se poutèt sa m'ap fè lwanj ou.
4 So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my hands in your name.
Konsa m'a pase tout lavi m' ap di ou mèsi; se ou menm sèlman m'a lapriyè.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest food. My mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,
M'ap fè fèt, m'ap kontan tankou yon moun ki manje plen vant li yon manje ki gen bon gou, ki gen kont grès li ladan l'. Wi, se konsa kè m' ap kontan. M'ap louvri bouch mwen pou m' fè lwanj ou.
6 when I remember you on my bed, and think about you in the night watches.
Lè m' kouche sou kabann mwen, lide m' ap travay sou ou. Tout lannwit se ou m'ap kalkile.
7 For you have been my help. I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings.
Paske se ou ki tout sekou m', m'ap rete kache anba zèl ou, m'ap chante sitèlman mwen kontan.
8 My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.
Mwen kole kò m' sou ou, se pouvwa ou k'ap soutni mwen.
9 But those who seek my soul to destroy it shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
Men, moun k'ap chache touye m' yo, yo gen pou yo desann kote mò yo ye a.
10 They shall be given over to the power of the sword. They shall be jackal food.
Yo gen pou yo mouri nan lagè, chen mawon gen pou manje kadav yo.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him will praise him, for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be silenced.
Men, Bondye ap fè kè wa a kontan. Tout moun ki mete non l' devan va gen kè kontan tou. Men, y'ap fèmen bouch moun k'ap bay manti yo.
