< Sòm 28 >
1 Yon sòm David A Ou menm, O SENYÈ, mwen rele! Wòch mwen an, pa vin soud devan m, paske si Ou rete silan devan mwen, mwen va devni kon (sila) ki desann nan twou fòs la nèt.
[A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, Jehovah, do I call; my rock, be not silent unto me, lest, [if] thou keep silence toward me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
2 Tande vwa a siplikasyon mwen yo lè m kriye a Ou menm pou sekou, lè m leve men m vè sanktiyè sen Ou an.
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the oracle of thy holiness.
3 Pa rale m sòti avèk mechan yo, avèk (sila) ki fè inikite yo, ki pale lapè avèk vwazen yo, pandan mechanste nan kè yo.
Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbours, and mischief is in their heart.
4 Rekonpanse yo selon zèv yo ak selon mechanste yo abitye fè yo. Rekonpanse yo selon zèv men yo. Remèt yo tout rekonpans pa yo.
Give them according to their doing, and according to the wickedness of their deeds; give them after the work of their hands, render to them their desert.
5 Akoz yo pa okipe zèv a SENYÈ yo, ni travay men Li yo. Pou sa, Li va chire yo desann, e Li p ap fè yo remonte.
For they regard not the deeds of Jehovah, nor the work of his hands: he will destroy them, and not build them up.
6 Beni se SENYÈ a, akoz Li te tande vwa a siplikasyon mwen yo.
Blessed be Jehovah, for he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7 SENYÈ a se fòs mwen ak boukliye mwen. Kè m mete konfyans nan Li, e mwen jwenn sekou. Pou sa, kè m leve wo nèt. Avèk chanson mwen, mwen va di Li mèsi.
Jehovah is my strength and my shield; my heart confided in him, and I was helped: therefore my heart exulteth, and with my song will I praise him.
8 SENYÈ a se fòs yo. Li se yon defans pou sove onksyone Li yo.
Jehovah is their strength; and he is the stronghold of salvation to his anointed one.
9 Sove pèp Ou a, e beni eritaj pa Ou a. Devni bèje yo tou, e bay yo soutyen jis pou tout tan.
Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance; and feed them, and lift them up for ever.
