Psalms 61

1 To the Overseer, on stringed instruments. — By David. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.

Pou chèf sanba yo. Se sou enstriman akòd pou yo jwe mizik la. Se yon sòm David. Bondye, tande jan m'ap rele nan pye ou! Koute lè m'ap lapriyè ou!

2 From the end of the land unto Thee I call, In the feebleness of my heart, Into a rock higher than I Thou dost lead me.

Kè m' kase, mwen lwen lakay mwen. M'ap rele ou. Tanpri, mennen m' al chache pwoteksyon sou wòch kote mwen pa ka rive a.

3 For Thou hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.

Paske, se ou k'ap pwoteje m', se ou k'ap pran defans mwen kont lènmi m' yo.

4 I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret place of Thy wings. (Selah)

Mwen ta renmen pase tout lavi m' lakay ou. Mwen ta renmen rete kache anba zèl ou.

5 For Thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.

Bondye, ou tande pwomès mwen fè. Ban mwen sa ou bay tout moun ki respekte non ou lan.

6 Days to the days of the king Thou addest, His years as generation and generation.

Mete kèk jou sou lavi wa a: Se pou l' viv lontan lontan ankò.

7 He dwelleth to the age before God, Kindness and truth appoint — they keep him.

Se pou l' gouvènen tout tan devan Bondye. Bondye va fè l' wè jan li renmen li, jan li toujou kenbe pawòl li: Bondye va pwoteje l'.

8 So do I praise Thy name for ever, When I pay my vows day by day!

Konsa, mwen p'ap janm sispann chante pou ou. Chak jou m'a fè sa m' te pwomèt ou a.
