Sòm 4
1 Pou direktè koral la; sou enstriman ak fil yo; yon sòm David Reponn mwen lè m rele Ou, O Bondye ladwati mwen; Ou te fè m pran souf nan gran twoub mwen an. Fè m gras e tande lapriyè mwen.
Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness. Thou have enlarged me in distress. Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2 O fis a lòm yo, jiskilè laglwa Mwen va devni yon repwòch? Jiskilè ou va renmen sa ki san valè e tante twonpe moun? Tan
O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
3 Men konnen ke SENYÈ a te mete nonm Bondye a apa pou Li menm. SENYÈ a tande lè m fè apèl Li.
But know that Jehovah has set apart for himself him who is holy. Jehovah will hear when I call to him.
4 Tranble, men pa fè peche. Reflechi nan kè ou sou kabann ou, e rete kalm. Tan
Stand in awe, and sin not. Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Ofri sakrifis ladwati yo. Mete konfyans nan SENYÈ a.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in Jehovah.
6 Anpil ap di: “Kilès ki kab montre nou yon bagay ki bon?” SENYÈ, leve wo limyè a vizaj Ou devan nou!
Many there are who say, Who will show us good? Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7 Ou te mete lajwa nan kè m plis pase lè gwo rekòlt sereyal mi ak diven nèf vin parèt.
Thou have put gladness in my heart more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
8 Anpè, mwen va kouche pou dòmi, paske Ou sèl, SENYÈ, fè m viv ansekirite.
In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for thou, Jehovah, alone make me dwell in safety.
