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!

To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. Yahweh answer thee, in the day of distress, The Name of the God of Jacob give thee safety;

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

Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

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

Remember every present of thine, and, thine ascending-sacrifice, esteem. (Selah)

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

Give thee according to thy heart, and, all thy purposes, fulfil.

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 aloud in thy salvation, and, in the Name of our God, shall we become great, Yahweh fulfil all thy petitions.

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, do I know that Yahweh, hath saved, his Anointed One, —He answereth him out of his holy heavens, by the mighty saving deeds of his own 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.

These, by chariots, and, those, by horses, but, we, by the Name of Yahweh our God, will prevail.

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

They, have bowed down and fallen, but, we, have arisen, and stand upright.

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

Yahweh, hath saved the king. Answer us, then, on the day when we call.
