Sòm 61

1 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!

To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of David. Heare my cry, O God: giue eare vnto my prayer.

2 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.

From the endes of the earth will I crye vnto thee: when mine heart is opprest, bring me vpon the rocke that is higher then I.

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

For thou hast bene mine hope, and a strong tower against the enemie.

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

I will dwell in thy Tabernacle for euer, and my trust shall be vnder the couering of thy wings. (Selah)

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

For thou, O God, hast heard my desires: thou hast giuen an heritage vnto those that feare thy Name.

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

Thou shalt giue the King a long life: his yeeres shalbe as many ages.

7 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'.

Hee shall dwell before God for euer: prepare mercie and faithfulnes that they may preserue him.

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

So will I alway sing prayse vnto thy Name in performing dayly my vowes.
