Sòm 9
1 Pou chèf sanba yo. Sou menm lè ak chante ki di: Lanmò pitit gason an. Se yon sòm David. M'a fè lwanj ou ak tout kè m', Seyè. M'a rakonte tout bèl mèvèy ou yo.
To the chief Musician. Upon Muthlabben. A Psalm of David. I will praise Jehovah with my whole heart; I will recount all thy marvellous works.
2 Se ou menm k'ap fè m' chante, se ou menm k'ap fè kè m' kontan. Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la, m'a chante lwanj ou.
I will be glad and rejoice in thee; I will sing forth thy name, O Most High.
3 Parèt ou parèt, lènmi m' yo fè bak. Yo pran tranble, yo tonbe, yo mouri.
When mine enemies turned back, they stumbled and perished at thy presence:
4 Tankou yon jij ki san patipri, ou chita sou fotèy ou. ou fè m' jistis, ou defann kòz mwen.
For thou hast maintained my right and my cause. Thou sittest on the throne, judging righteously.
5 Ou regle moun lòt nasyon yo, ou detwi mechan yo. Ou efase non yo nèt pou tout tan.
Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
6 Pa gen lènmi ankò, yo fini nèt. Ata lavil yo ou vide atè. Pa gen anyen pou fè moun chonje yo ankò.
O enemy! destructions are ended for ever. — Thou hast also destroyed cities, even the remembrance of them hath perished.
7 Men Seyè a, se wa li ye pou tout tan. Li mete fotèy li la pou l' fè jistis.
But Jehovah sitteth for ever; he hath ordained his throne for judgment.
8 Li gouvènen tout bagay avèk jistis. Li jije tout moun san patipri.
And it is he that will judge the world with righteousness; he shall execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.
9 Moun y'ap peze yo, se bò kote Seyè a yo jwenn pwoteksyon. Se la yo jwenn yon kote pou yo kache, lè yo nan tray.
And Jehovah will be a refuge to the oppressed one, a refuge in times of distress.
10 Moun ki konnen ou, Seyè, y'ap mete konfyans yo nan ou. Paske, ou pa lage moun k'ap chache ou.
And they that know thy name will confide in thee; for thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
11 Ann fè lwanj Seyè a k'ap gouvènen sou mòn Siyon an. Ann fè tout nasyon yo konnen sa li te fè.
Sing psalms to Jehovah who dwelleth in Zion; tell among the peoples his doings.
12 Bondye chonje moun k'ap soufri yo, li pa bliye rèl malere yo, li pini moun ki fè yo mal.
For when he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them; the cry of the afflicted ones hath he not forgotten.
13 Gen pitye pou mwen, Seyè! Gade nan ki mizè moun ki rayi m' yo mete m'. vin sove m'! Pa kite m' mouri, Seyè,
Be gracious unto me, O Jehovah; consider mine affliction from them that hate me, lifting me up from the gates of death:
14 pou m' ka kanpe devan moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, pou m' di yo poukisa m'ap fè lwanj ou. M'ap kontan nèt, paske ou te delivre m'.
That I may declare all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will be joyful in thy salvation.
15 Moun lòt nasyon yo fouye yon gwo twou: se yo menm ki tonbe ladan li. Yo tann yon pèlen: se pye yo ki pran ladan li.
The nations are sunk down in the pit [that] they made; in the net that they hid is their own foot taken.
16 Seyè a fè yo konnen ki moun li ye, li jije yo san patipri. Sa mechan yo fè a tounen kont yo.
Jehovah is known [by] the judgment he hath executed: the wicked is ensnared in the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
The wicked shall be turned into Sheol, all the nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
18 Se pa tout tan yo ka bliye moun ki nan mizè. Se pa tout tan yo ka wete espwa moun ki nan lafliksyon.
For the needy one shall not be forgotten alway; the hope of the meek shall not perish for ever.
19 Leve non, Seyè! Pa kite lèzòm genyen batay la! Mennen moun lòt nasyon yo vin jije devan ou.
Arise, Jehovah; let not man prevail: let the nations be judged in thy sight.
20 Fè kè yo kase, Seyè! Fè yo konnen se moun ase yo ye.
Put them in fear, Jehovah: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. (Selah)
