Sòm 5
1 Pou chèf sanba yo. Se sou enstriman yo rele fif pou yo jwe mizik la. Se yon sòm David. Koute sa m'ap di ou, Seyè! Tande jan m'ap plenn!
To him that excelleth upon Nehiloth. A Psalme of Dauid. Heare my wordes, O Lord: vnderstande my (meditation)
2 Se ou ki wa mwen, se ou ki Bondye mwen. Pran ka m', Seyè, lè m'ap rele ou! Se ou menm m'ap lapriyè, Seyè.
Hearken vnto the voyce of my crie, my King and my God: for vnto thee doe I pray.
3 Chak maten ou tande vwa m'. Kou solèy leve, mwen mete lapriyè m' devan ou. M'ap tann ou reponn mwen.
Heare my voyce in the morning, O Lord: for in the morning will I direct me vnto thee, and I will waite.
4 Ou se yon Bondye ki pa pran plezi nan bagay ki mal. Ou pa tolere mechan yo bò kote ou.
For thou art not a God that loueth wickednes: neither shall euill dwell with thee.
5 Moun k'ap vante tèt yo pa ka kanpe devan ou. Ou pa vle wè moun k'ap fè mechanste.
The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: for thou hatest all them that worke iniquitie.
6 Ou detwi tout moun k'ap bay manti. Ou pa ka sipòte moun k'ap touye moun, ni moun k'ap twonpe moun.
Thou shalt destroy them that speake lyes: the Lord will abhorre the bloodie man and deceitfull.
7 Men mwen menm, m'a antre lakay ou, paske ou renmen m' anpil. M'ap lage kò m' nan pye ou, nan kay ki apa pou ou a. M'ap adore ou.
But I wil come into thine house in the multitude of thy mercie: and in thy feare will I worship toward thine holy Temple.
8 Seyè, mwen gen anpil lènmi k'ap veye m'. Pran men m' pou m' ka fè sa ki dwat devan ou. Fè m' wè chemen ou mete devan m' lan, fè m' wè l' aklè.
Leade me, O Lord, in thy righteousnes, because of mine enemies: make thy way plaine before my face.
9 Ou pa janm ka kwè moun sa yo. Se dèyè yon sèl bagay yo ye: yo vle fini ak tout moun. Anndan bouch yo, ou ta di yon kavo ki louvri, lang yo menm dous konsa pou flate moun.
For no constancie is in their mouth: within, they are very corruption: their throte is an open sepulchre, and they flatter with their tongue.
10 Se mechan yo ye. Kondannen yo, Bondye. Gate tout plan yo te fè. Pou valè peche yo fè, wete yo devan jè ou. paske se kenbe y'ap kenbe tèt ak ou.
Destroy them, O God: let them fall from their counsels: cast them out for the multitude of their iniquities, because they haue rebelled against thee.
11 Men, tout moun ki mete konfyans yo nan ou, fè kè yo kontan. Se pou yo chante san rete tèlman yo kontan. W'ap pwoteje moun ki renmen ou. Ou fè yo chante pou ou tèlman yo kontan.
And let all them that trust in thee, reioyce and triumph for euer, and couer thou them: and let them, that loue thy Name, reioyce in thee.
12 Paske ou menm Seyè, ou beni moun ki obeyi ou. Ou kouvri yo avèk favè ou, w'ap kanpe bò kote yo pou pran defans yo.
For thou Lord wilt blesse the righteous, and with fauour wilt compasse him, as with a shielde.
