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 leader of the music of the Jeduthunites, A psalm of David.” Truly my soul resteth on God alone; From him cometh my deliverance!
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 safeguard, I shall not wholly fall!
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 ye continue to assault a single man? How long will ye all seek to destroy me, Like a bending 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 study how to cast me down from my eminence; They delight in falsehood; They bless with their mouths, but in their hearts they curse.
5 Nanm mwen tann an silans sèlman Bondye. Paske espwa mwen se nan Li.
My soul, rest thou on God alone, For from him cometh my hope!
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 safeguard, —I shall not fall.
7 Sali mwen an, avèk glwa mwen rete nan Bondye. Wòch fòs mwen an, ak kote pou m kache, se nan Bondye.
From God cometh my help and my glory: My strong rock, my refuge, is 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, ye 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.
Truly men of low degree are vanity, And men of high degree are a lie; Placed in the balance, They are all lighter than vanity.
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.
Trust not in extortion; Place no vain hopes in rapine! If riches increase, set not your heart upon them!
11 Yon fwa, Bondye te pale. De fwa, mwen gen tan tande sa: Ke pouvwa, se pou Bondye.
Once hath God promised, twice have I heard it, That power belongeth unto God.
12 Epi anplis, lanmou dous se pou Ou, O Senyè. Paske Ou bay rekonpans a lòm selon zèv li yo.
To thee also, O Lord! belongeth mercy; For thou dost render to every man according to his work!
