< 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 Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A teaching poem by David, when he fought with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah, and Joab returned, and killed twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. God, you have rejected us. You have broken us down. You have been angry. Restore us, again.
2 Ou te fè latè tranble. Ou te fann li pou l ouvri. Geri brèch li yo, paske l ap sekwe.
You have made the land tremble. You have torn it. Mend its fractures, for it quakes.
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 hard things. You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.
4 Ou te bay yon drapo pou (sila) ki gen lakrent Ou yo, pou fè l byen parèt akoz verite a. Tan
You have given a banner to those who fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)
5 Pou byeneme Ou yo kab delivre, Sove avèk men dwat Ou e reponn nou!
So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.
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 divide Shechem, and measure out 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 also is the defence of my head. Judah is my sceptre.
8 Moab se basen lave Mwen. Sou Edom, Mwen va jete soulye Mwen. Mwen rele viktwa sou peye Filisten yo.”
Moab is my wash basin. I will throw my sandal on Edom. I shout in triumph over Philistia.”
9 Kilès k ap fè m rive nan vil fòterès la? Kilès k ap mennen mwen antre Edom?
Who will bring me into the strong city? Who has led 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?
Haven’t you, God, rejected us? You don’t go out with our armies, God.
11 O bannou sekou kont advèsè a, paske delivrans pa lòm se an ven.
Give us help against the adversary, for the help of man is vain.
12 Nan Bondye, nou va fè bèl bagay yo ak gwo kouraj. Se Li menm ki va foule lènmi nou yo anba pye.
Through God we will do valiantly, for it is he who will tread down our adversaries.
