< Sòm 83 >

1 Chante sa a se yon sòm Asaf li ye. O Bondye, pa rete ak bouch ou fèmen! Pa rete san ou pa di anyen, Bondye! Pa rete konsa san ou pa fè anyen!
A Song, a Psalm of Asaph. O God, keep not Thou silence; hold not Thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 Men li! Lènmi ou yo ap revòlte. Moun ki pa vle wè ou yo ap leve dèyè ou!
For, lo, Thine enemies are in an uproar; and they that hate Thee have lifted up the head.
3 Y'ap fè konplo an kachèt sou do pèp ou a, y'ap mete tèt yo ansanm sou do moun w'ap pwoteje yo.
They hold crafty converse against Thy people, and take counsel against Thy treasured ones.
4 Yo di: -Vini non! Ann efase non yo pami nasyon yo, pou pesonn pa janm chonje peyi Izrayèl la ankò!
They have said: 'Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.'
5 Yo mete tèt yo ansanm, yo fè yon sèl lide: yo dakò pou yo fè bann sou do ou.
For they have consulted together with one consent; against Thee do they make a covenant;
6 Moun peyi Edon ansanm ak pitit pitit Izmayèl yo, moun peyi Moab ansanm ak pitit pitit Aga yo,
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;
7 moun peyi Gebal, moun peyi Amon ansanm ak moun peyi Amalèk yo, moun peyi Filisti ansanm ak moun lavil Tir, yo tout yo dakò.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Moun peyi Lasiri yo tou fè bann ak yo, yo mete fòs yo ansanm ak pitit pitit Lòt yo.
Assyria also is joined with them; they have been an arm to the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 Sa ou te fè moun peyi Madyan yo, sa ou te fè Sisera ansanm ak Jaben nan ravin Kichon an, se sa pou ou fè yo tou.
Do Thou unto them as unto Midian; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook Kishon;
10 Ou te kraze yo nan Andò, ou fè kadav yo tounen fimye pou tè a.
Who were destroyed at En-dor; they became as dung for the earth.
11 Sa ou te fè Orèb ak Zeèb, se sa pou ou fè chèf lame yo tou! Menm jan ou te kraze Zebak ak Salmouna, se konsa pou ou kraze chèf yo tou,
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and like Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes;
12 paske yo te di: -Ann pran peyi Bondye a pou nou.
Who said: 'Let us take to ourselves in possession the habitations of God.'
13 Bondye mwen, gaye yo tankou pousyè nan toubouyon, tankou pay van ap pote ale.
O my God, make them like the whirling dust; as stubble before the wind.
14 Tankou dife k'ap boule nan rakbwa, tankou flanm dife k'ap mache boule mòn yo,
As the fire that burneth the forest, and as the flame that setteth the mountains ablaze;
15 se konsa pou ou kouri dèyè yo ak gwo van tanpèt ou a. Fè yo pè ak gwo van siklòn ou yo!
So pursue them with Thy tempest, and affright them with Thy storm.
16 Fè yo wont, fè yo blije kache figi yo, Seyè, pou yo ka chache konnen ou.
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek Thy name, O LORD.
17 Se pou yo wont nèt jouk yo pa konn sa pou yo fè. Se pou yo kouri kache, se pou yo mouri.
Let them be ashamed and affrighted for ever; yea, let them be abashed and perish;
18 Fè yo konnen se ou menm sèl ki Seyè, se ou menm ki sèl chèf sou tout latè.
That they may know that it is Thou alone whose name is the LORD, the Most High over all the earth.
