Sòm 20

1 Pou direktè koral la; Yon sòm David Ke SENYÈ a kapab reponn ou nan jou gran twoub la! Ke non Bondye Jacob la kapab kenbe ou ansekirite an wo!

For the leader. A psalm of David. The Lord answer you in the day of distress, the name of the Jacob’s God protect you,

2 Ke Li kapab voye bay ou èd soti nan sanktiyè a, epi bay ou soutyen soti nan Sion.

sending you help from the temple, out of Zion supporting you.

3 Ke Li kapab sonje tout ofrann sereyal ou yo, ke Li twouve tout ofrann brile ou yo byen akseptab!

All your meal-offerings may he remember, your burnt-offerings look on with favour. (Selah)

4 Ke Li kapab bay ou dezi a kè ou, e akonpli tout plan ou yo!

May he grant you your heart’s desire, and bring all your plans to pass.

5 Nou va chante avèk jwa akoz viktwa ou. Nan non Bondye nou an, nou va monte drapo nou yo. Ke SENYÈ a kapab akonpli tout priyè ou yo.

We will shout then for joy at your victory, and rejoice in the name of our God. May the Lord grant your every request.

6 Alò, mwen konnen ke SENYÈ a va delivre moun onksyone pa Li a. Li va reponn li soti nan syèl sen Li an, avèk delivrans pwisan men dwat Li a.

Now I am sure that the Lord will help his anointed. From his temple in heaven he will answer by his mighty triumphant right hand.

7 Genyen kèk ki fè konfyans nan cha yo, e kèk nan cheval yo, Men nou va fè konfyans nan non SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.

Some in chariots are strong, some in horses; but our strength is the Lord our God.

8 Yo te pliye e yo te tonbe, men nou te leve e nou te kanpe dwat.

They will totter and fall, while we rise and stand firm.

9 Delivre nou O SENYÈ! Ke Wa a kapab reponn nou nan jou ke nou rele Non Li an.

Give victory, Lord, to the king, and answer us when we call.
