< Sòm 2 >
1 Poukisa nasyon yo ap boulvèse konsa, e pèp yo fòmante yon vye bagay?
Why have the Gentiles been seething, and why have the people been pondering nonsense?
2 Wa latè yo pran pòz yo e chèf yo pran konsèy ansanm kont SENYÈ a, e kont onksyone pa Li a:
The kings of the earth have stood up, and the leaders have joined together as one, against the Lord and against his Christ:
3 “Annou chire chenn sa yo, e jete kòd ki mare nou yo!”
“Let us shatter their chains and cast their yoke away from us.”
4 (Sila) ki chita nan syèl la ri; SENYÈ a ap moke yo.
He who dwells in heaven will ridicule them, and the Lord will mock them.
5 Anplis, Li va pale avèk yo nan kòlè Li. Li va fè yo sezi nan kòlè Li.
Then will he speak to them in his anger and trouble them with his fury.
6 Men pou Mwen menm, Mwen fin plase Wa Mwen an sou Sion, mòn sen Mwen an.
Yet I have been appointed king by him over Zion, his holy mountain, preaching his precepts.
7 Anverite, Mwen va pale selon deklarasyon SENYÈ a; SENYÈ a te di Mwen: “Ou se Fis Mwen. Se jodi a, Mwen te fè Ou.
The Lord has said to me: You are my son, this day have I begotten you.
8 Mande Mwen, e Mwen va bay Ou nasyon yo kon eritaj, jis rive nan dènye pwent latè kon posesyon pa Ou.
Ask of me and I will give to you: the Gentiles for your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for your possession.
9 Ou va kase yo avèk yon baton fè, Ou va kraze yo tankou veso kanari.”
You will rule them with an iron rod, and you will shatter them like a potter’s vessel.
10 Konsa, O wa yo, sèvi ak sajès. Fè atansyon, O jij sou latè yo.
And now, O kings, understand. Receive instruction, you who judge the earth.
11 Adore SENYÈ a avèk gran respè e rejwi avèk tranbleman.
Serve the Lord in fear, and exult in him with trembling.
12 Fè omaj a Fis la, pou L pa vin fache, epi ou ta mouri nan chemen an. Paske gwo chalè Li kab limen ase vit. A la beni se tout (sila) ki kache nan Li.
Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord might become angry, and you would perish from the way of the just. Though his wrath can flare up in a short time, blessed are all those who trust in him.
