< 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.
For the chief musician. A maschil of David; when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said to him, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.” Why are you proud of making trouble, you mighty man? The covenant faithfulness of God comes every day.
2 Lang ou envante destriksyon, tankou yon razwa ki file, plen desepsyon.
Your tongue plans destruction like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Ou renmen mechanste plis pase sa ki bon. Fo bagay plis pase pale verite a.
You love evil more than good and lying rather than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
4 Ou renmen tout pawòl ki devore, yon lang mantè.
You love all words that devour others, 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
God will likewise destroy you forever; he will take you up and pluck you out of your tent and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Moun dwat yo va wè, va gen lakrent; yo va ri sou li epi di:
The righteous will also see it and fear; they will laugh at 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.”
“See, this is a man who did not make God his refuge, but he trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and he was strong when he destroyed others.”
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 as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God's house; I will trust in the covenant faithfulness of God 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 give you thanks forever for what you have done. I will wait for your name, because it is good, in the presence of your godly people.
