Sòm 68
1 Pou direktè koral la; avèk enstriman ak kòd yo. Yon Sòm; Yon Chan Kite Bondye leve! Kite lènmi Li yo vin gaye! Kite (sila) ki rayi Li yo sove ale devan L.
For the Chief Musician; A Psalm of David, a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered; Let them also that hate him flee before him.
2 Kon lafimen konn chase, konsa, chase yo. Kon lasi kon fonn devan dife, konsa, kite mechan yo peri devan Bondye.
As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: As wax melteth before the fire, So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
3 Men kite moun ladwati yo fè kè kontan. Kite yo leve wo devan Bondye. Wi, kite yo rejwi avèk kè kontan.
But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God: Yea, let them rejoice with gladness.
4 Chante a Bondye! Chante lwanj a non Li! Leve wo pou (Sila) ki monte sou nwaj yo: non l se SENYÈ a! Rejwi devan Li an!
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: Cast up a highway for him that rideth through the deserts; His name is Jehovah; and exult ye before him.
5 Yon papa pou òfelen yo e yon jij pou vèv yo, se Bondye nan lye sen Li an.
A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, Is God in his holy habitation.
6 Bondye fè yon fanmi pou (sila) ki pa genyen an. Li fè prizonye yo vin sòti deyò ak chan yo, men rebèl yo viv nan yon peyi deseche.
God setteth the solitary in families: He bringeth out the prisoners into prosperity; But the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
7 O Bondye, lè Ou te sòti devan pèp Ou a, lè Ou te mache travèse dezè a,
O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, When thou didst march through the wilderness; (Selah)
8 tè a te souke. Syèl yo tou te lage lapli devan prezans Bondye, prezans Bondye Sinaï lan. Mond la li menm tè a souke devan prezans Bondye a, Bondye Israël la.
The earth trembled, The heavens also dropped [rain] at the presence of God: Yon Sinai [trembled] at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Ou, Bondye te voye nan tout kote yon gwo lapli. Ou te konfime eritaj Ou lè li te fatige nèt.
Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, Thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
10 Moun pa Ou yo te vin rete ladann. Ou te founi tout bonte Ou pou malere yo, O Bondye.
Thy congregation dwelt therein: Thou, O God, didst prepare of thy goodness for the poor.
11 Senyè a te anonce pawòl la. Mesaje ki pwoklame bòn nouvèl yo se yon gwo lame.
The Lord giveth the word: The women that publish the tidings are a great host.
12 “Wa lame yo sove ale! Yo kouri! Fanm nan rete nan kay la divize piyaj la!
Kings of armies flee, they flee; And she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
13 Lè ou kouche nan pak mouton yo, se tankou zèl toutrèl ki kouvri ak ajan e plim li ak lò briyan.
When ye lie among the sheepfolds, [It is as] the wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold.
14 Lè Toupwisan an te gaye wa yo la a, Nèj t ap tonbe sou Tsalmon.
When the Almighty scattered kings therein, [It was as when] it snoweth in Zalmon.
15 Yon mòn Bondye se Mòn Basan. Yon mòn apik e difisil se Mòn Basan.
A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan; A high mountain is the mountain of Bashan.
16 Poukisa nou gade ak anvi, O tout lòt mòn yo? Sou mòn ke Bondye te apwente konn abitasyon Li an? Anverite, SENYÈ a va abite la pou tout tan.
Why look ye askance, ye high mountains, At the mountain which God hath desired for his abode? Yea, Jehovah will dwell [in it] for ever.
17 Cha Bondye yo anpil sou milye dè milye. Senyè a pami yo sòti Sinaï, nan sentete Li.
The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands upon thousands: The Lord is among them, [as in] Sinai, in the sanctuary.
18 Ou te monte an wo. Ou te mennen kaptif yo sòti. Anplis, Ou te resevwa kado pami lòm, menm pami rebèl yo tou, pou SENYÈ a, Bondye a, kapab abite la.
Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led away captives; Thou hast received gifts among men, Yea, [among] the rebellious also, that Jehovah God might dwell [with them].
19 Beni se Senyè a, ki pote fado nou chak jou, Bondye ki se delivrans nou an. Tan
Blessed be the Lord, who daily beareth our burden, Even the God who is our salvation. (Selah)
20 Bondye pou nou se yon Bondye delivrans. Epi BONDYE, Senyè a sèl, ki fè nou chape devan lanmò.
God is unto us a God of deliverances; And unto Jehovah the Lord belongeth escape from death.
21 Anverite, Bondye va kraze tèt lènmi Li yo, tèt la menm ak cheve a (sila) ki pèsiste nan mechanste li yo.
But God will smite through the head of his enemies, The hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on still in his guiltiness.
22 Senyè a te di: “Mwen va mennen fè yo sòti Basan. Mwen va mennen yo retounen jis rive nan fon lanmè a,
The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depths of the sea;
23 pou pye ou kapab kraze yo bay san, jis lang chen ou yo kapab jwenn pòsyon pa yo sou lènmi a.”
That thou mayest crush [them], [dipping] thy foot in blood, That the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from [thine] enemies.
24 Yo te wè pwosesyon solanèl Ou a, O Bondye, pwosesyon a Bondye mwen an, Wa mwen, pou antre nan sanktiyè a.
They have seen thy goings, O God, Even the goings of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.
25 Chantè yo te ale, e mizisyen yo te swiv, nan mitan a jenn fi ki t ap bat tanbouren yo.
The singers went before, the minstrels followed after, In the midst of the damsels playing with timbrels.
26 Beni Bondye nan asanble yo, SENYÈ a menm, fontèn dlo Israël la.
Bless ye God in the congregations, Even the Lord, [ye that are] of the fountain of Israel.
27 Men gade Benjamin, pi piti an Israël la, k ap renye sou yo, prens a Juda ki konseyè yo, prens Zabulon ak prens a Nephthali yo.
There is little Benjamin their ruler, The princes of Judah [and] their council, The princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
28 Bondye ou a te kòmande fòs Ou. Montre Ou dyanm, O Bondye, nan sa Ou te fè pou nou menm.
Thy God hath commanded thy strength: Strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
29 Akoz tanp Jérusalem Ou a, wa yo va mennen kado bay Ou.
Because of thy temple at Jerusalem Kings shall bring presents unto thee.
30 Repwoche bèt sovaj yo nan mitan wozo a, twoupo towo yo avèk ti bèf a pèp yo. Foule anba pye gwo bout pyès ajan yo. Gaye pèp ki te renmen fè lagè yo.
Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds, The multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples, Trampling under foot the pieces of silver: He hath scattered the peoples that delight in war.
31 Prens yo va sòti an Égypte. Ethiopie va fè vit pou lonje men l vè Bondye.
Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall haste to stretch out her hands unto God.
32 Chante a Bondye, O wayòm sou latè yo, Chante lwanj a Senyè a, Tan
Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; Oh sing praises unto the Lord; (Selah)
33 A (Sila) ki vwayaje monte sou pi wo syèl la, ki la depi nan tan ansyen yo. Gade byen, Li pale ak gwo vwa, yon vwa plen pwisans.
To him that rideth upon the heaven of heavens, which are of old; Lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.
34 Rekonèt fòs Bondye a! Majeste Li sou tout Israël, pwisans Li nan syèl yo.
Ascribe ye strength unto God: His excellency is over Israel, And his strength is in the skies.
35 O Bondye, Ou etonnan nan sanktiyè Ou yo. Bondye Israël la ki bay fòs ak pouvwa a pèp Li yo. Beni se Bondye!
O God, [thou art] terrible out of thy holy places: The God of Israel, he giveth strength and power unto [his] people. Blessed be God.
