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. To you, Yahweh, I cry out; my rock, do not ignore me. If you do not respond to me, I will join those who go down to the grave.
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 sound of my pleading when I call for help from you, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy place!
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.
Do not drag me away with the wicked, those who do iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors but have evil in their hearts.
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 what their deeds deserve and repay them what their wickedness demands, repay them for the work of their hands and render to them their due.
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.
Because they do not understand the deeds of Yahweh or the work of his hands, he will tear them down and never rebuild them.
6 Beni se SENYÈ a, akoz Li te tande vwa a siplikasyon mwen yo.
Blessed be Yahweh because he has heard the sound of my pleading!
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.
Yahweh is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and I will praise him with singing.
8 SENYÈ a se fòs yo. Li se yon defans pou sove onksyone Li yo.
Yahweh is the strength of his people, and he is the saving refuge of 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 your people and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
