< Sòm 62 >

1 Pou chèf sanba yo. Pou Yedoutoun. Se yon chante David. Se sou Bondye sèlman mwen konte, se li menm ki pou delivre mwen.
For the Chief Musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. My soul waiteth only upon God: from him [cometh] my salvation.
2 Se li menm ase k'ap pwoteje m', k'ap delivre m'. Se li ki tout defans mwen. Li p'ap janm kite anyen rive m'.
He only is my rock and my salvation: [he is] my high tower; I shall not be greatly moved.
3 Kilè n'a sispann tonbe ansanm sou do yon moun pou n' chache lage l' atè tankou yon miray ki tou panche, tankou yon lantouraj k'ap tonbe?
How long will ye set upon a man, that ye may slay [him], all of you, like a bowing wall, like a tottering fence?
4 Wi, yo pa gen lòt lide nan tèt yo pase fè l' pèdi gwo plas kote li ye a. Yo pran plezi nan bay manti. Yo louvri bouch yo pou mande benediksyon, men nan kè yo, se madichon y'ap bay.
They only consult to thrust him down from his excellency; they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)
5 Wi, se sou Bondye ase pou m' konte. Se nan li mwen mete tout espwa mwen.
My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
6 Se li menm sèlman k'ap pwoteje m', k'ap delivre m'. Se li ki tout defans mwen, li p'ap janm kite anyen rive m'.
He only is my rock and my salvation: [he is] my high tower; I shall not be moved.
7 Se Bondye k'ap delivre m'. Se li menm k'ap fè yo respekte m'. Se li menm ki tout fòs mwen, l'ap pran defans mwen. Se li menm ki tout pwoteksyon mwen.
With God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
8 Nou menm, pèp mwen, toujou mete konfyans nou nan li! Louvri kè nou ba li, paske se li menm ki tout nou.
Trust in him at all times, ye people; pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. (Selah)
9 Wi, moun pa anyen. Grannèg? Se pawòl nan bouch. Mete yo ansanm nan balans, yo pa gen pèz. Yo pi lejè pase van k'ap soufle a.
Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: in the balances they will go up; they are together lighter than vanity.
10 Pa mete konfyans nou nan fè britalite. Pa mete nan tèt nou nou ka genyen anyen nan vòlò. Lè nou wè n'ap fè lajan, pa kite l' pran nanm nou.
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart [thereon].
11 An de fwa, men sa m' tande Bondye di: -Se nan men m' pouvwa rete.
God hath spoken once, twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God:
12 Wi, Seyè, ou gen bon kè, paske w'ap bay chak moun sa yo merite dapre sa yo fè.
Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
