Sòm 22
1 Pou chèf sanba yo. Se pou yo chante l' sou lè chante ki di: Nan granmaten yon fenmèl kabrit. Se yon sòm David. Bondye, Bondye m', poukisa ou lage m' konsa? Poukisa ou rete lwen konsa, san pote m' sekou, san koute jan m'ap plenn lan?
TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “DOE OF THE MORNING.” A PSALM OF DAVID. My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? Far from My salvation, The words of My roaring?
2 Tout lajounen m'ap rele ou, Bondye mwen, ou pa reponn. Tout lannwit m'ap rele, mwen pa ka dòmi.
My God, I call by day, and You do not answer, And by night, and am not silent.
3 Men, se ou menm ki Bondye, ou chita sou fotèy ki apa pou ou a. Pèp Izrayèl la ap fè lwanj ou.
And You [are] holy, Sitting—the Praise of Israel.
4 Zansèt nou yo te mete konfyans yo nan ou. Yo te fè ou konfyans, ou te sove yo.
In You our fathers trusted; They trusted, and You deliver them.
5 Lè yo te kriye nan pye ou, ou te wete yo nan move pa. Wi, yo te mete konfyans yo nan ou, yo pa t' janm regrèt yo te fè sa.
To You they cried, and were delivered, In You they trusted, and were not disappointed.
6 Men, se pa moun mwen ye ankò, se yon vètè mwen tounen. Tout moun ap meprize m', tout moun ap pase m' nan betiz.
And I [am] a worm, and no man, A reproach of man, and despised of the people.
7 Tout moun ki wè m' pase m' nan rizib. Y'ap lonje dwèt sou mwen, y'ap fè siy sou mwen.
All beholding Me mock at Me, They make free with the lip—shake the head,
8 Y'ap di m' konsa: -Jan ou te konte sou Seyè a, poukisa li pa delivre ou? Si Seyè a renmen ou, poukisa li pa ede ou?
“Roll to YHWH, He delivers Him, He delivers Him, for He delighted in Him.”
9 Se ou menm ki te fè m' soti san danje nan vant manman m'. Se ou menm ankò ki te pwoteje m' lè m' te nan tete.
For You [are] He bringing Me forth from the womb, Causing Me to trust, On the breasts of My mother.
10 Depi nan vant manman m', se ou menm k'ap pwoteje m'. Depi anvan mwen te fèt, se ou menm ki Bondye mwen.
On You I have been cast from the womb, From the belly of My mother You [are] My God.
11 Pa rete lwen m' konsa. Malè prèt pou tonbe sou mwen, mwen pa gen pesonn pou ede m'.
Do not be far from Me, For adversity is near, for there is no helper.
12 Lènmi m' yo anpil, yo sènen m' toupatou. Yo tankou gwo towo bèf peyi Bazan. Kote m' vire yo la.
Many bulls have surrounded Me, Mighty ones of Bashan have surrounded Me,
13 Yo louvri bouch yo, ou ta di se lyon k'ap gwonde, ki prèt pou dechire mwen.
They have opened their mouth against Me, A lion tearing and roaring.
14 Mwen pèdi tout fòs mwen, tankou dlo ki tonbe atè. Tout zo nan kò m' dejwente. Mwen santi kè m' ap kase, tout zantray mwen ap bouyi.
I have been poured out as waters, And all my bones have separated themselves, My heart has been like wax, It is melted in the midst of My bowels.
15 Fòs mwen ap cheche, tankou labou nan solèy. Lang mwen kole nan fon bouch mwen. Mwen santi m' prèt pou mouri.
My power is dried up as an earthen vessel, And My tongue is cleaving to My jaws.
16 Tankou yon bann chen, mechan yo sènen m'. Bann mechan yo fèmen m' toupatou. Yo kraze de men m' ak de pye m' yo.
And You appoint Me to the dust of death, For dogs have surrounded Me, A company of evildoers has surrounded Me, Piercing My hands and My feet.
17 Tout zo nan kò m' parèt. Y'ap gade m', y'ap veye m'.
I count all My bones—they look expectingly, They look on Me,
18 Y'ap separe rad mwen ant yo menm, y'ap tire osò pou rad mwen an.
They apportion My garments to themselves, And they cause a lot to fall for My clothing.
19 Pa rete lwen m' konsa, Seyè. Ou menm ki tout fòs mwen, prese vin pote m' sekou.
And You, O YHWH, do not be far off, O My strength, hurry to help Me.
20 Pa kite yo touye m' ak kout nepe. Pa kite chen yo devore m'.
Deliver My soul from the sword, My only one from the paw of a dog.
21 Wete m' nan bouch lyon yo. Delivre m' anba towo savann sa yo. Ou reponn mwen, Seyè!
Save Me from the mouth of a lion And You have answered Me from the horns of the high places!
22 M'a di frè m' yo tout sa ou te fè pou mwen. M'a fè lwanj ou lè yo tout reyini ansanm.
I declare Your Name to My brothers, In the midst of the assembly I praise You.
23 Nou tout ki gen krentif pou Seyè a, fè lwanj li. Nou tout pitit pitit Jakòb yo, chante pou li. Nou tout pèp Izrayèl la, adore li.
You who fear YHWH, praise Him, All the seed of Jacob, honor Him, And be afraid of Him, all you seed of Israel.
24 Li pa meprize pòv yo, li pa fèmen je l' sou soufrans yo. Li pa rete lwen yo. Lè yo rele l', li reponn.
For He has not despised, nor detested, The affliction of the afflicted, Nor has He hidden His face from Him, And in His crying to Him He hears.
25 M'a fè lwanj ou pou sa ou fè, nan mitan tout moun yo lè yo reyini. M'a fè sa mwen te pwomèt ou yo, devan tout moun ki gen krentif pou ou yo.
Of You My praise [is] in the great assembly. I complete My vows before His fearers.
26 Pòv yo va manje mezi yo kapab. Moun k'ap chache Seyè a va fè lwanj li. Y'a viv ak kè poze pou tout tan.
The humble eat and are satisfied, Those seeking Him praise YHWH, Your heart lives forever.
27 Tout nasyon va chonje sa Seyè a te fè. Toupatou sou latè yo pral tounen vin jwenn li. Moun tout peyi va adore li.
Remember and return to YHWH, Do all the ends of the earth, And bow themselves before You, Do all families of the nations,
28 Se Seyè a ki wa. Se li ki donminen sou tout nasyon.
For to YHWH [is] the kingdom, And He is ruling among nations.
29 Tout grannèg sou latè va bese tèt devan li. Yo tout ki la pou mouri, yo tout ki la pou al anba tè, yo pral adore li.
And the fat ones of earth have eaten, And they bow themselves, All going down to dust bow before Him, And he [who] has not revived his soul.
30 Jenerasyon k'ap vini yo va sèvi li. Moun va rakonte istwa Seyè a bay pitit yo.
A seed serves Him, It is declared of the Lord to the generation.
31 Pitit yo menm, lè y'a fè pitit, y'a fè konnen jan Seyè a te delivre yo ansanm ak tou sa li te fè pou yo.
They come and declare His righteousness, To a people that is born, that He has made!
