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 Overseer, 'On the Death of Labben.' — A Psalm of David. I confess, O Jehovah, with all my heart, I recount all Thy wonders,
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 rejoice and exult in Thee, I praise Thy Name, O Most High.
3 Parèt ou parèt, lènmi m' yo fè bak. Yo pran tranble, yo tonbe, yo mouri.
In mine enemies turning backward, they stumble and perish from Thy face.
4 Tankou yon jij ki san patipri, ou chita sou fotèy ou. ou fè m' jistis, ou defann kòz mwen.
For Thou hast done my judgment and my right. Thou hast sat on a throne, A judge of righteousness.
5 Ou regle moun lòt nasyon yo, ou detwi mechan yo. Ou efase non yo nèt pou tout tan.
Thou hast rebuked nations, Thou hast destroyed the wicked, Their name Thou hast blotted out to the age and for 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 thou Enemy, Finished have been destructions for ever, As to cities thou hast plucked up, Perished hath their memorial with them.
7 Men Seyè a, se wa li ye pou tout tan. Li mete fotèy li la pou l' fè jistis.
And Jehovah to the age abideth, He is preparing for judgment His throne.
8 Li gouvènen tout bagay avèk jistis. Li jije tout moun san patipri.
And He judgeth the world in righteousness, He judgeth 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.
And Jehovah is a tower for the bruised, A tower for times of adversity.
10 Moun ki konnen ou, Seyè, y'ap mete konfyans yo nan ou. Paske, ou pa lage moun k'ap chache ou.
They trust in Thee who do know Thy name, For Thou hast not forsaken Those seeking Thee, O Jehovah.
11 Ann fè lwanj Seyè a k'ap gouvènen sou mòn Siyon an. Ann fè tout nasyon yo konnen sa li te fè.
Sing ye praise to Jehovah, inhabiting Zion, Declare ye among the peoples His acts,
12 Bondye chonje moun k'ap soufri yo, li pa bliye rèl malere yo, li pini moun ki fè yo mal.
For He who is seeking for blood Them hath remembered, He hath not forgotten the cry of the afflicted.
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,
Favour me, O Jehovah, See mine affliction by those hating me, Thou who 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'.
So that I recount all Thy praise, In the gates of the daughter of Zion. I rejoice on 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.
Sunk have nations in a pit they made, In a net that they hid hath their foot been captured.
16 Seyè a fè yo konnen ki moun li ye, li jije yo san patipri. Sa mechan yo fè a tounen kont yo.
Jehovah hath been known, Judgment He hath done, By a work of his hands Hath the wicked been snared. (Meditation, Selah)
The wicked do turn back to Sheol, All nations forgetting 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 not for ever is the needy forgotten, The hope of the humble lost to the age.
19 Leve non, Seyè! Pa kite lèzòm genyen batay la! Mennen moun lòt nasyon yo vin jije devan ou.
Rise, O Jehovah, let not man be strong, Let nations be judged before Thy face.
20 Fè kè yo kase, Seyè! Fè yo konnen se moun ase yo ye.
Appoint, O Jehovah, a director to them, Let nations know they [are] men! (Selah)
