Sòm 59
1 Pou direktè koral la; Nan melodi la “Pa Detwi”. Yon powèm David lè Saül te voye yo lakay pou touye l. Delivre mwen de lènmi m yo, O Bondye mwen; Plase mwen byen wo an sekirite byen lwen de (sila) ki leve kont mwen yo.
For the chief musician; set to Al Tashheth. A psalm of David. A michtam; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Rescue me from my enemies, my God; set me on high away from those who rise up against me.
2 Delivre m de (sila) ki fè inikite yo, e sove mwen de moun ki vèse san yo.
Keep me safe from the workers of iniquity, and save me from the bloodthirsty men.
3 Paske gade byen, yo fè anbiskad pou lavi m. Mesye fewòs ki fè atak kont mwen yo, pa akoz transgresyon mwen, ni peche m, O SENYÈ.
For, see, they wait in ambush to take my life. The powerful men gather themselves together against me, but not because of my transgression or my sin, Yahweh.
4 Se pa akoz mwen koupab ke yo vin kouri mete yo kont mwen an. Leve Ou menm pou wè, e fè m sekou!
They prepare to run at me although I am without fault; awake and help me and see.
5 Ou menm, O SENYÈ Bondye dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la, leve e pini tout nasyon yo. Pa bay gras a moun mechan yo ki fè trèt nan inikite. Tan
You, Yahweh God of hosts, the God of Israel, arise and punish all the nations; do not be merciful to any wicked transgressors. (Selah)
6 Yo retounen nan aswè. Yo rele tankou chen pandan yo antoure lavil la.
They return at evening, they howl like dogs and go around the city.
7 Gade byen, yo fè pete gwo gaz ak bouch yo. Nepe yo nan lèv yo, paske yo di: “Kilès ki tande”?
See, they belch out with their mouths; swords are in their lips, for they say, “Who hears us?”
8 Men Ou menm, O SENYÈ, ri sou yo! Ou menm, giyonnen tout nasyon sa yo.
But you, Yahweh, laugh at them; you hold all the nations in derision.
9 O Fòs mwen, m ap veye tann Ou. Bondye se sitadèl mwen.
God, my strength, I will pay attention to you; you are my high tower.
10 Bondye mwen an ak lanmou dous Li a, va devan m. Bondye va kite mwen triyonfè sou advèsè mwen yo.
My God will meet me with his covenant faithfulness; God will let me see my desire on my enemies.
11 Pa fin touye yo, sinon moun mwen yo ka bliye. Gaye yo avèk pouvwa Ou, e rale fè yo desann, O SENYÈ, boukliye nou an.
Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by your power and make them fall, Lord our shield.
12 Akoz peche a bouch yo avèk pawòl lèv yo, Kite yo sezi pran nan pwòp ògèy yo. Paske se malediksyon avèk manti yo bay.
For the sins of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them be captured in their pride, and for the curses and lies that they express.
13 Detwi yo nan kòlè Ou! Detwi yo pou yo disparèt nèt. Pou Moun kab konnen se Bondye k ap renye sou Jacob, jis rive sou tout latè. Tan
Consume them in wrath, consume them so that they will be no more; let them know that God rules in Jacob and to the ends of the earth. (Selah)
14 Kite yo retounen nan aswè. Kite yo rele anlè tankou chen, pandan yo antoure vil la.
At evening they return, howling like dogs going around the city.
15 Yo gaye toupatou. Yap tan tout lanwit si yo pa satisfè.
They wander about looking for food and they growl like a dog if they are not satisfied.
16 Men pou mwen, mwen va chante de fòs Ou. Wi, avèk jwa, mwen va chante sou lanmou dous Ou nan maten. Paske Ou te toujou sitadèl mwen, yon pwotèj nan jou gran twoub mwen an.
But I will sing about your strength, and in the morning I will sing about your steadfast love! For you have been my high tower and a refuge in the day of my distress.
17 A Ou menm, gran fòs mwen, mwen va chante lwanj a Ou menm. Paske Bondye se sitadèl mwen, Bondye ki montre mwen lanmou dous la.
To you, my strength, I will sing praises; for God is my high tower, the God of covenant faithfulness.
