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 him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid to giue instruction. When Doeg the Edomite came and shewed Saul, and saide to him, Dauid is come to the house of Abimelech. Why boastest thou thy selfe in thy wickednesse, O man of power? the louing kindenesse of God indureth dayly.

2 Lang ou envante destriksyon, tankou yon razwa ki file, plen desepsyon.

Thy tongue imagineth mischiefe, and is like a sharpe rasor, that cutteth deceitfully.

3 Ou renmen mechanste plis pase sa ki bon. Fo bagay plis pase pale verite a.

Thou doest loue euill more then good, and lies more then to speake the trueth. (Selah)

4 Ou renmen tout pawòl ki devore, yon lang mantè.

Thou louest all wordes that may destroye, O deceitfull 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

So shall God destroy thee for euer: he shall take thee and plucke thee out of thy tabernacle, and roote thee out of ye land of the liuing. (Selah)

6 Moun dwat yo va wè, va gen lakrent; yo va ri sou li epi di:

The righteous also shall see it, and feare, and shall laugh at him, saying,

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.”

Beholde the man that tooke not God for his strength, but trusted vnto the multitude of his riches, and put his strength in his malice.

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 shall bee like a greene oliue tree in the house of God: for I trusted in the mercie of God for euer and euer.

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 alway praise thee, for that thou hast done this, and I will hope in thy Name, because it is good before thy Saints.
