< Sòm 52 >

1 Pou direktè koral la. Yon Sòm David, lè Doeg, Edomit lan te vin di Saül “David gen tan rive lakay Achimélic.” Poukisa ou ògeye nan mechanste ou, O lòm pwisan? Lanmou dous Bondye a dire tout lajounen.
To the chief music-maker. Maschil. Of David. When Doeg the Edomite came to Saul saying, David has come to the house of Ahimelech. Why do you take pride in wrongdoing, lifting yourself up against the upright man all the day?
2 Lang ou envante destriksyon, tankou yon razwa ki file, plen desepsyon.
Purposing destruction, using deceit; your tongue is like a sharp blade.
3 Ou renmen mechanste plis pase sa ki bon. Fo bagay plis pase pale verite a.
You have more love for evil than for good, for deceit than for works of righteousness. (Selah)
4 Ou renmen tout pawòl ki devore, yon lang mantè.
Destruction is in all your words, O false tongue.
5 Men Bondye va kase fè ou desann nèt; Li va kenbe ou byen vit e chire fè ou sòti nan tant ou an, Epi dechouke fè ou sòti nan peyi vivan yo. Tan
But God will put an end to you for ever; driving you out from your tent, uprooting you from the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Moun dwat yo va wè, va gen lakrent; yo va ri sou li epi di:
The upright will see it with fear, and will say, laughing at you:
7 “Gade byen, men nonm ki refize pran refij nan Bondye a, men ki te mete konfyans nan abondans richès li yo. Li te ranfòse tèt li ak mechanste.”
See, this is the man who did not make God his strength, but had faith in his goods and his property, and made himself strong in his wealth.
8 Men pou mwen menm, mwen tankou yon pye doliv vèt lakay Bondye. Mwen mete konfyans mwen nan lanmou dous Bondye a pou tout tan e pou tout tan.
But I am like a branching olive-tree in the house of God; I have put my faith in his mercy for ever and ever.
9 Mwen va bay Ou remèsiman pou tout tan, paske Ou te fè sa. Mwen va mete espwa nan non Ou, paske sa bon nan prezans a fidèl Ou yo.
I will give you praise without end for what you have done; I will give honour to your name before your saints, for it is good.
