Sòm 13

1 Pou direktè koral la; yon sòm David Jiskilè SENYÈ? Èske Ou ap bliye mwen jis pou tout tan? Pou konbyen de tan, Ou va kache figi Ou de mwen?

How long, O Jehovah? Will thou forget me forever? How long will thou hide thy face from me?

2 Pou konbyen de tan mwen va oblije depann sou pwòp konsèy tèt mwen, ak tristès nan kè m tout lajounen? Jiskilè lènmi m va vin leve wo sou mwen?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

3 Okipe m, e reponn mwen, O SENYÈ, Bondye mwen; Fè zye m wè, pou m pa mouri;

Consider and answer me, O Jehovah my God. Lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the death,

4 pou lènmi mwen an pa di: “Mwen fin genyen l,” epi advèsè mwen yo rejwi lè m pran chòk.

lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him, lest my adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

5 Men mwen va mete konfyans mwen nan lanmou dous Ou a; Kè m va rejwi nan delivrans ou

But I have trusted in thy loving kindness. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

6 Mwen va chante a SENYÈ a, paske Li te aji ak bon kè avè m.

I will sing to Jehovah because he has dealt bountifully with me.
