Sòm 6

1 Pou direktè koral la; avèk enstriman ak fil yo sou yon gita uit kòd. Yon sòm David. O SENYÈ, pa repwoche mwen nan kòlè Ou, ni ba m chatiman nan fachez Ou.

Unto the end, in verses, a psalm for David, for the octave. O Lord, rebuke me not in thy indignation, nor chastise me in thy wrath.

2 Fè m gras, O SENYÈ, paske mwen chagren anpil. Geri mwen, O SENYÈ, paske zo m yo rele anmwey,

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak: heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.

3 epi nanm mwen fè gwo chagren. Men Ou, O SENYÈ, —jiskilè?

And my soul is troubled exceedingly: but thou, O Lord, how long?

4 Retounen, O SENYÈ, fè nanm mwen chape. Sove mwen akoz lanmou dous Ou a.

Turn to me, O Lord, and deliver my soul: O save me for thy mercy’s sake.

5 Paske mò yo pa rele non Ou. Nan andwa kote mò yo ye a, se kilès k ap bay Ou remèsiman? (Sheol h7585)

For there is no one in death, that is mindful of thee: and who shall confess to thee in hell? (Sheol h7585)

6 Mwen bouke ak plent ki sòti anndan m. Chak nwit, kabann mwen vin naje ak dlo. Dlo ki sòt nan zye m yo fin gate kabann nan.

I have laboured in my groanings, every night I will wash my bed: I will water my couch with my tears.

7 Zye m pouri nèt ak gwo doulè. Yo vin vye nèt akoz tout advèsè mwen yo.

My eye is troubled through indignation: I have grown old amongst all my enemies.

8 Sòti sou mwen, nou tout ki fè mechanste yo, paske SENYÈ a te tande gwo kri mwen.

Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity: for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9 SENYÈ a te tande demand priyè mwen. SENYÈ a te resevwa lapriyè mwen.

The Lord hath heard my supplication: the Lord hath received my prayer.

10 Tout lènmi mwen yo va wont e deranje nèt. Yo va vire fè bak sibitman. Yo va vin wont anpil.

Let all my enemies be ashamed, and be very much troubled: let them be turned back, and be ashamed very speedily.
