Sòm 2
1 Poukisa nasyon yo ap toumante kò yo konsa? Poukisa pèp yo ap fè plan ki p'ap sèvi yo anyen?
Wherefore did the heathen rage, and the nations imagine vain things?
2 Wa latè yo pran lèzam. Chèf yo mete tèt yo ansanm, y'ap fè konplo sou do Seyè a, y'ap fè konplo sou do wa li chwazi a.
The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers gathered themselves together, against the Lord, and against his Christ;
3 Y'ap plede di: -Ann kase chenn yo mete nan pye nou yo! Ann voye yo jete!
[saying], Let us break through their bonds, and cast away their yoke from us.
4 Seyè a rete chita nan syèl la, l'ap ri. L'ap pase yo nan jwèt.
He that dwells in the heavens shall laugh them to scorn, and the Lord shall mock them.
5 Apre sa, li fè kòlè, li pale ak yo. Li move sou yo, li fè kè yo kase.
Then shall he speak to them in his anger, and trouble them in his fury.
6 Li di: -Se mwen menm ki mete wa mwen an sou mòn Siyon, mòn ki apa pou mwen an.
But I have been made king by him on Sion his holy mountain,
7 Wa a di: -M'ap fè nou konnen sa Seyè a deside. Li di mwen: Ou se pitit mwen. Depi jòdi a, se mwen ki papa ou.
declaring the ordinance of the Lord: the Lord said to me, Thou art my Son, to-day have I begotten thee.
8 Mande m', m'a ba ou tout nasyon yo pou eritaj ou. M'a ba ou tout latè pou bitasyon ou.
Ask of me, and I will give thee the heathen [for] thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth [for] thy possession.
9 W'ap kraze ren yo avèk yon baton fè, w'ap kraze yo an miyèt moso tankou yon kannari yo kraze.
Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces as a potter's vessel.
10 Koulye a, nou menm wa yo, manyè konprann. Nou menm k'ap dirije moun sou latè, manyè koute.
Now therefore understand, ye kings: be instructed, all ye that judge the earth.
11 Sèvi Seyè a avèk krentif, tranble nan tout kò nou,
Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice in him with trembling.
12 bese tèt devan li. Si se pa sa, n'a fè l' fache, n'a mouri, paske kòlè l' moute fasil. Ala bon sa bon pou moun k'ap chache pwoteksyon anba zèl li!
Accept correction, lest at any time the Lord be angry, and ye should perish from the righteous way: whensoever his wrath shall be suddenly kindled, blessed are all they that trust in him.
