Sòm 60

1 Pou direktè koral la; selon melodi “Lis Akò La”. Yon powèm David, pou enstwi; lè l te lite avèk Aram-Naharaim e avèk Aram-Zobah; epi, Joab te retounen e te frape douz-mil Edomit nan Vale Sèl la. O Bondye, Ou te rejte nou. Ou te kraze nou. Ou te fache. O restore nou ankò.

For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A Miktam of David for instruction. When he fought Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck down 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. You have rejected us, O God; You have broken us; You have been angry; restore us!

2 Ou te fè latè tranble. Ou te fann li pou l ouvri. Geri brèch li yo, paske l ap sekwe.

You have shaken the land and torn it open. Heal its fractures, for it is quaking.

3 Ou te fè pèp Ou a wè anpil bagay di. Ou te bay nou diven pou bwè ki fè nou toudi.

You have shown Your people hardship; we are staggered from the wine You made us drink.

4 Ou te bay yon drapo pou (sila) ki gen lakrent Ou yo, pou fè l byen parèt akoz verite a. Tan

You have raised a banner for those who fear You, that they may flee the bow.

5 Pou byeneme Ou yo kab delivre, Sove avèk men dwat Ou e reponn nou!

Respond and save us with Your right hand, that Your beloved may be delivered.

6 Bondye te pale nan sentete Li: “Mwen va triyonfe! Mwen va divize Sichem e tire yon lin nan vale Succoth la.

God has spoken from His sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem and apportion the Valley of Succoth.

7 Galaad se pou Mwen e Manassé se pa M. Anplis, Éphraïm se kas sou tèt Mwen. Juda se baton wayal Mwen an.

Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is My helmet, Judah is My scepter.

8 Moab se basen lave Mwen. Sou Edom, Mwen va jete soulye Mwen. Mwen rele viktwa sou peye Filisten yo.”

Moab is My washbasin; upon Edom I toss My sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

9 Kilès k ap fè m rive nan vil fòterès la? Kilès k ap mennen mwen antre Edom?

Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

10 Èske Ou menm, SENYÈ a, pa t rejte nou? Epi èske Ou p ap sòti avèk lame nou yo, O Bondye?

Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?

11 O bannou sekou kont advèsè a, paske delivrans pa lòm se an ven.

Give us aid against the enemy, for the help of man is worthless.

12 Nan Bondye, nou va fè bèl bagay yo ak gwo kouraj. Se Li menm ki va foule lènmi nou yo anba pye.

With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.
