Sòm 62
1 Pou direktè koral la; selon Jeduthun; Yon Sòm David Nanm mwen ap poze sèl nan Bondye. Sali m se nan Li.
For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. In God alone my soul finds rest; my salvation comes from Him.
2 Se Li sèl ki wòch mwen, sali mwen, ak sitadèl mwen. Menm gwo sò pa p boulvèse m.
He alone is my rock and my salvation. He is my fortress; I will never be shaken.
3 Pou jiskilè, nou va atake yon nonm? Alò, èske nou ta touye li, nou tout, tankou yon miray k ap panche? Tankou yon kloti k ap kraze?
How long will you threaten a man? Will all of you throw him down like a leaning wall or a tottering fence?
4 Yo plen entansyòn pou pouse li soti nan wo pozisyon li. Yo pran plezi nan tout sa ki fo. Yo beni avèk bouch yo, men anndan yo bay madichon.
They fully intend to cast him down from his lofty perch; they delight in lies; with their mouths they bless, but inwardly they curse.
5 Nanm mwen tann an silans sèlman Bondye. Paske espwa mwen se nan Li.
Rest in God alone, O my soul, for my hope comes from Him.
6 Li se sèl ki wòch mwen, sali mwen, ak sitadèl mwen. Mwen p ap ebranle menm.
He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress; I will not be shaken.
7 Sali mwen an, avèk glwa mwen rete nan Bondye. Wòch fòs mwen an, ak kote pou m kache, se nan Bondye.
My salvation and my honor rest on God, my strong rock; my refuge is in God.
8 Mete konfyans nan Li tout tan, O pèp la. Vide kè nou devan Li. Bondye se yon refij pou nou.
Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts before Him. God is our refuge.
9 Moun nan pozisyon ba yo se se sèl yon souf nan van. Moun ki plase wo yo se manti. Nan pèz balans yo, se monte, yap monte. Ansanm menm, yo pi fay ke yon souf.
Lowborn men are but a vapor, the exalted but a lie. Weighed on the scale, they go up; together they are but a vapor.
10 Pa mete konfyans nan peze kou moun desann. Ni pa mete fo espwa nan vòlè. Si richès nou ogmante, pa mete kè nou sou yo.
Place no trust in extortion, or false hope in stolen goods. If your riches increase, do not set your heart upon them.
11 Yon fwa, Bondye te pale. De fwa, mwen gen tan tande sa: Ke pouvwa, se pou Bondye.
God has spoken once; I have heard this twice: that power belongs to God,
12 Epi anplis, lanmou dous se pou Ou, O Senyè. Paske Ou bay rekonpans a lòm selon zèv li yo.
and loving devotion to You, O Lord. For You will repay each man according to his deeds.
