Sòm 143
1 Yon Sòm David Tande lapriyè mwen, O SENYÈ. Prete zòrèy Ou a siplikasyon mwen yo. Nan fidelite Ou, reponn mwen, ak ladwati Ou!
Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in your faithfulness answer me, and in your righteousness.
2 Konsa, pa antre nan jijman avèk sèvitè Ou a, paske nan zye Ou, nanpwen moun vivan ki jis.
And enter not into judgment with your servant: for in your sight shall no man living be justified.
3 Paske lènmi an te pèsekite nanm mwen. Li fin kraze lavi m jis rive atè. Li te fè m rete kote fènwa, tankou (sila) ki mouri lontan yo.
For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has smitten my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.
4 Pou sa, lespri m kraze nèt anndan m. Kè m nan gwo twoub anndan m.
Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
5 Mwen sonje ansyen jou yo. Mwen reflechi tout tan sou tout sa Ou te fè. Mwen panse sou zèv men Ou yo.
I remember the days of old; I meditate on all your works; I meditate on the work of your hands.
6 Mwen lonje men m vè Ou menm. Nanm mwen fè gwo anvi pou Ou, kon yon peyi deseche.
I stretch forth my hands unto you: my soul thirsts after you, as a thirsty land. (Selah)
7 Reponn mwen vit, O SENYÈ, lespri m vin febli; Pa kache figi Ou sou mwen, oswa mwen va vini kon (sila) ki desann nan fòs yo.
Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit fails: hide not your face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
8 Kite mwen tande lanmou dous Ou a nan granmmaten, paske mwen mete konfyans mwen nan Ou. Enstwi mwen nan chemen ke m ta dwe mache a, paske se a Ou ke mwen leve nanm mwen.
Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning; for in you do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto you.
9 Delivre mwen, O SENYÈ, de lènmi mwen yo. Mwen kache nan Ou.
Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto you to hide me.
10 Enstwi mwen pou fè volonte Ou, paske se Ou menm ki Bondye mwen. Lespri Ou bon. Kondwi mwen sou tèren ladwati a.
Teach me to do your will; for you are my God: your spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
11 Pou koz a non Ou, O SENYÈ, fè m reprann fòs mwen. Nan ladwati Ou, mennen nanm mwen sòti nan gwo twoub la.
Restore life in me, O LORD, for your name's sake: for your righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.
12 Epi nan lanmou dous Ou a, fè lennmi m yo koupe retire nèt. Detwi tout (sila) ki aflije nanm mwen yo, paske mwen se sèvitè Ou.
And of your mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am your servant.
