Sòm 57
1 Pou direktè koral la; jwe a son Al-tashheth Yon Mikhtam David, lè l te sove ale devan Saül nan kav la Fè m gras, SENYÈ, O Bondye, fè m gras, paske nanm mwen kache nan Ou. Wi, nan lonbraj a zèl Ou, mwen va kache, jiskaske destriksyon an fin pase.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul into the cave. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy, for in You my soul takes refuge. In the shadow of Your wings I will take shelter until the danger has passed.
2 Mwen va kriye a Bondye Pi Wo a, a Bondye ki acheve tout sa m mande an.
I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.
3 Li va voye sòti nan syèl la pou sove mwen. Li fè repwòch a (sila) ki foule mwen an. Tan Bondye va voye fè rive lanmou dous Li ak verite Li.
He reaches down from heaven and saves me; He rebukes those who trample me. (Selah) God sends forth His loving devotion and His truth.
4 Nanm mwen rete pami lyon yo. Mwen oblije kouche pami (sila) k ap respire dife yo. Fis a lòm yo menm ak dan kon frenn file, epi lang yo kon yon epe file.
My soul is among the lions; I lie down with ravenous beasts— with men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.
5 Leve anwo syèl yo, O Bondye; Kite glwa Ou vin pi wo sou tout latè!
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
6 Yo te prepare yon gwo filè pou pa mwen yo; Nanm mwen koube ba. Yo te fouye yon fòs devan m. Yo te tonbe nan mitan li. Tan
They spread a net for my feet; my soul was despondent. They dug a pit before me, but they themselves have fallen into it!
7 Kè m kanpe fèm, O Bondye, kè m fèm. Mwen va chante, wi mwen va chante lwanj!
My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing and make music.
8 Leve, glwa mwen! Leve ap avèk gita! Mwen va fè maten vin leve.
Awake, my glory! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
9 Mwen va bay Ou remèsiman, O SENYÈ, pami pèp yo. Mwen va chante lwanj ou pami nasyon yo.
I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
10 Paske lanmou dous Ou a gran jis rive nan syèl yo, epi verite Ou jis rive nan nwaj yo.
For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds.
11 Leve anwo syèl yo, O Bondye. Ke Glwa Ou kapab vin pi wo ke tout latè.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
