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.
For the Chief Musician; set to Muthlabben. A Psalm of David. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvelous 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 exult in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High.
3 Parèt ou parèt, lènmi m' yo fè bak. Yo pran tranble, yo tonbe, yo mouri.
When mine enemies turn back, they stumble and perish 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 satest in 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 blotted 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.
The enemy are come to an end, they are desolate for ever; and the cities which thou hast overthrown, their very memorial is perished.
7 Men Seyè a, se wa li ye pou tout tan. Li mete fotèy li la pou l' fè jistis.
But the LORD sitteth [as king] for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.
8 Li gouvènen tout bagay avèk jistis. Li jije tout moun san patipri.
And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
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.
The LORD also will be a high tower for the oppressed, a high tower in times of trouble;
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 put their trust in thee; for thou, LORD, 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 praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
12 Bondye chonje moun k'ap soufri yo, li pa bliye rèl malere yo, li pini moun ki fè yo mal.
For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the poor.
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,
Have mercy upon me, O LORD; behold my affliction [which I suffer] of them that hate me, thou that liftest 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 shew forth all thy praise: in the gates of the daughter of Zion, I will rejoice 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 which 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.
The LORD hath made himself known, he hath executed judgment: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. (Higaion, Selah)
The wicked shall return to Sheol, even 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 shall not alway be forgotten, nor the expectation of the poor perish for ever.
19 Leve non, Seyè! Pa kite lèzòm genyen batay la! Mennen moun lòt nasyon yo vin jije devan ou.
Arise, O LORD; 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, O LORD: let the nations know themselves to be but men. (Selah)
