< Sòm 142 >
1 Yon Sòm Refleksyon pa David lè l te nan kav la. Yon lapriyè Mwen kriye fò avèk vwa mwen vè SENYÈ a. Ak vwa m, mwen fè siplikasyon a SENYÈ a pou m mande L mizerikòd.
The lernyng of Dauid; `his preier, `whanne he was in the denne. With my vois Y criede to the Lord; with my vois Y preiede hertli to the Lord.
2 Mwen vide plent mwen yo devan L. Mwen deklare pwoblèm mwen yo devan L.
I schede out my preier in his siyt; and Y pronounce my tribulacioun bifor him.
3 Lè lespri m te fin bat anndan m, Ou te konnen chemen mwen. Nan wout kote m mache a, yo te sere yon pyèj pou mwen.
While my spirit failith of me; and thou hast knowe my pathis. In this weie in which Y yede; proude men hidden a snare to me.
4 Gade adwat pou wè. Nanpwen moun ki veye pou mwen. Nanpwen moun ki pou fè m chape. Nanpwen moun ki pou pran swen m.
I bihelde to the riyt side, and Y siy; and noon was that knew me. Fliyt perischide fro me; and noon is that sekith my soule.
5 Mwen te kriye a Ou menm, O SENYÈ. Mwen te di “Se Ou menm ki sekou mwen, pòsyon mwen nan peyi moun vivan yo.”
Lord, Y criede to thee, Y seide, Thou art myn hope; my part in the lond of lyueris.
6 “Prete atansyon a kri mwen yo, paske mwen vin desann ba nèt. Delivre mwen nan men pèsekitè mwen yo, paske yo twò fò pou mwen.
Yyue thou tent to my biseching; for Y am maad low ful greetli. Delyuere thou me fro hem that pursuen me; for thei ben coumfortid on me.
7 Mennen nanm mwen sòti nan prizon, pou m kab bay remèsiman a non Ou. Moun ladwati mwen yo va antoure mwen, paske Ou va aji nan bonte Ou anvè mwen.”
Lede my soule out of keping to knouleche to thi name; iust men abiden me, til thou yelde to me.
