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.
Unto the end. The understanding of David. When Doeg the Edomite came and reported to Saul, David went to the house of Ahimelech. Why do you glory in malice, you who are powerful in iniquity?
2 Lang ou envante destriksyon, tankou yon razwa ki file, plen desepsyon.
All day long your tongue thinks up injustice. Like a sharp razor, you have wrought deceit.
3 Ou renmen mechanste plis pase sa ki bon. Fo bagay plis pase pale verite a.
You have loved malice above goodness, and iniquity more than speaking righteousness.
4 Ou renmen tout pawòl ki devore, yon lang mantè.
You have loved all precipitous words, you deceitful 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
Because of this, God will destroy you in the end. He will pull you up, and he will remove you from your tabernacle and your root from the land of the living.
6 Moun dwat yo va wè, va gen lakrent; yo va ri sou li epi di:
The just will see and be afraid, and they will laugh over him, and say:
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.”
“Behold the man who did not set God as his helper. But he hoped in the multitude of his riches, and so he prevailed in his emptiness.”
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, like a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, have hoped in the mercy of God unto eternity, and forever 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 confess to you forever, because you have accomplished it. And I will wait on your name, for it is good in the sight of your saints.
