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 Chief Musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. My soul waiteth only upon God: from him [cometh] my salvation.

2 Se Li sèl ki wòch mwen, sali mwen, ak sitadèl mwen. Menm gwo sò pa p boulvèse m.

He only is my rock and my salvation: [he is] my high tower; I shall not be greatly moved.

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 set upon a man, that ye may slay [him], all of you, like a bowing wall, like 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 only consult to thrust him down from his excellency; they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)

5 Nanm mwen tann an silans sèlman Bondye. Paske espwa mwen se nan Li.

My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

6 Li se sèl ki wòch mwen, sali mwen, ak sitadèl mwen. Mwen p ap ebranle menm.

He only is my rock and my salvation: [he is] my high tower; I shall not be moved.

7 Sali mwen an, avèk glwa mwen rete nan Bondye. Wòch fòs mwen an, ak kote pou m kache, se nan Bondye.

With God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and 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, ye people; pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. (Selah)

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.

Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: in the balances they will go up; they are together 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 oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart [thereon].

11 Yon fwa, Bondye te pale. De fwa, mwen gen tan tande sa: Ke pouvwa, se pou Bondye.

God hath spoken once, twice have I heard this; 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.

Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
