Sòm 5
1 Pou Direktè koral yo; fèt pou akonpanye ak flit. Yon Sòm David. Prete zòrèy Ou a pawòl mwen yo, O SENYÈ. Konsidere refleksyon mwen yo.
For the leader: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by the flute. Hear my words, Lord: give heed to my whisper.
2 Koute bri kri sekou mwen yo, Wa mwen e Bondye mwen. Pou Ou menm, mwen ap priye.
Attend to my loud cry for help, my king and my God.
3 Nan maten O SENYÈ, Ou va tande vwa mwen. Nan maten mwen va vèse bay Ou lapriyè mwen yo. M aptann, m ap veye.
When I pray to you, Lord, in the morning, hear my voice. I make ready for you in the morning, and look for a sign.
4 Paske Ou se pa yon Bondye ki gen plezi nan mechanste. Nanpwen mal ki rete avèk Ou.
For you are no God who takes pleasure in wickedness: no one of evil can be your guest.
5 (Sila) ki plen ògèy p ap kab kanpe devan zye Ou. Ou rayi tout (sila) ki fè inikite yo.
No braggarts can stand in your presence, you hate all workers of wrong.
6 Ou detwi (sila) ki pale sa ki fo yo. SENYÈ a rayi yon nonm ki vèse san, ki twonpe moun.
You destroy all speakers of lies, people of blood and deceit you abhor.
7 Men pou mwen, pa gran lanmou dous Ou a mwen va antre lakay Ou. Nan tanp sen Ou an mwen va pwostène mwen nèt an adorasyon.
But I, through your kindness abundant, may enter your house, and towards the shrine of your temple may reverently bow.
8 O SENYÈ, mennen m nan ladwati Ou akoz lènmi mwen yo. Fè chemen Ou dwat devan mwen.
Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way level before me.
9 Nanpwen anyen stab nan pawòl pa yo. Anndan yo se pouriti menm. Gòj yo se yon tonm ki louvri. Yo fè flatè ak lang yo.
For their mouth is a stranger to truth, their heart is a pit of destruction. Their throat is a wide open grave, their tongue the smooth tongue of the hypocrite.
10 Kenbe yo koupab, O Bondye. Selon pwòp manèv pa yo, kite yo tonbe! Nan fòs kantite peche yo pouse yo deyò, paske se rebèl yo ye kont Ou.
Condemn them, God; let their schemes bring them down to the ground. For their numberless crimes thrust them down for playing the rebel against you.
11 Men kite tout (sila) ki pran refij nan Ou yo, fè kè kontan. Kite yo toujou chante ak kè kontan, akoz Ou fè abri pou yo. Kite (sila) ki renmen non Ou yo kapab fè kè kontan nan Ou.
But let all who take refuge in you ring out their gladness forever. Protect those who love your name, so they may exult in you.
12 Paske se Ou menm ki beni nonm ki dwat la, O SENYÈ, Ou ki antoure li avèk gras Ou, tankou yon boukliye.
For you give your blessing, Lord, to the godly, and the shield of your favour protects them.
