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.
To the chief music-maker. Of David. A Psalm. A Song. Let God be seen, and let his haters be put to flight; let those who are against him be turned back before him.
2 Kon lafimen konn chase, konsa, chase yo. Kon lasi kon fonn devan dife, konsa, kite mechan yo peri devan Bondye.
Let them be like smoke before the driving wind; as wax turning soft before the fire, so let them come to an end before the power 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 upright be glad; let them have delight before God; let them be full of joy.
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!
Make songs to God, make songs of praise to his name; make a way for him who comes through the waste lands; his name is Jah; be glad before him.
5 Yon papa pou òfelen yo e yon jij pou vèv yo, se Bondye nan lye sen Li an.
A father to those who have no father, a judge of the widows, is God in his holy place.
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.
Those who are without friends, God puts in families; he makes free those who are in chains; but those who are turned away from him are given a dry land.
7 O Bondye, lè Ou te sòti devan pèp Ou a, lè Ou te mache travèse dezè a,
O God, when you went out before your people, wandering through the waste land; (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 was shaking and the heavens were streaming, because God was present; even Sinai itself was moved before 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.
You, O God, did freely send the rain, giving strength to the weariness of your heritage.
10 Moun pa Ou yo te vin rete ladann. Ou te founi tout bonte Ou pou malere yo, O Bondye.
Those whose resting-place was there, even the poor, were comforted by your good things, O God.
11 Senyè a te anonce pawòl la. Mesaje ki pwoklame bòn nouvèl yo se yon gwo lame.
The Lord gives the word; great is the number of the women who make it public.
12 “Wa lame yo sove ale! Yo kouri! Fanm nan rete nan kay la divize piyaj la!
Kings of armies quickly go in flight: and the women in the houses make a division of their goods.
13 Lè ou kouche nan pak mouton yo, se tankou zèl toutrèl ki kouvri ak ajan e plim li ak lò briyan.
Will you take your rest among the flocks? like the wings of a dove covered with silver, and its feathers with yellow gold.
14 Lè Toupwisan an te gaye wa yo la a, Nèj t ap tonbe sou Tsalmon.
When the Most High put the kings to flight, it was as white as snow in Salmon.
15 Yon mòn Bondye se Mòn Basan. Yon mòn apik e difisil se Mòn Basan.
A hill of God is the hill of Bashan; a hill with high tops is the hill 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 are you looking with envy, you high hills, on the hill desired by God as his resting-place? truly, God will make it his house for ever.
17 Cha Bondye yo anpil sou milye dè milye. Senyè a pami yo sòti Sinaï, nan sentete Li.
The war-carriage of God is among Israel's thousands; the Lord has come from Sinai to the holy place.
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.
You have gone up on high, taking your prisoners with you; you have taken offerings from men; the Lord God has taken his place on the seat of his power.
19 Beni se Senyè a, ki pote fado nou chak jou, Bondye ki se delivrans nou an. Tan
Praise be to the Lord, who is our support day by day, even the God of our salvation. (Selah)
20 Bondye pou nou se yon Bondye delivrans. Epi BONDYE, Senyè a sèl, ki fè nou chape devan lanmò.
Our God is for us a God of salvation; his are the ways out of death.
21 Anverite, Bondye va kraze tèt lènmi Li yo, tèt la menm ak cheve a (sila) ki pèsiste nan mechanste li yo.
The heads of the haters of God will be crushed; even the head of him who still goes on in his evil ways.
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 make them come back from Bashan, and from the deep parts 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.”
So that your foot may be red with blood, and the tongues of your dogs with the same.
24 Yo te wè pwosesyon solanèl Ou a, O Bondye, pwosesyon a Bondye mwen an, Wa mwen, pou antre nan sanktiyè a.
We see your going, O God: even the going of my God, my King, into the holy place.
25 Chantè yo te ale, e mizisyen yo te swiv, nan mitan a jenn fi ki t ap bat tanbouren yo.
The makers of songs go before, the players of music come after, among the young girls playing on brass instruments.
26 Beni Bondye nan asanble yo, SENYÈ a menm, fontèn dlo Israël la.
Give praise to God in the great meeting; even the Lord, you who come from 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 ruling them, the chiefs of Judah and their army, the rulers of Zebulun and the rulers of Naphtali.
28 Bondye ou a te kòmande fòs Ou. Montre Ou dyanm, O Bondye, nan sa Ou te fè pou nou menm.
O God, send out your strength; the strength, O God, with which you have done great things for us,
29 Akoz tanp Jérusalem Ou a, wa yo va mennen kado bay Ou.
Out of your Temple in Jerusalem.
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.
Say sharp words to the beast among the water-plants, the band of strong ones, with the lords of the peoples, put an end to the people whose delight is in war.
31 Prens yo va sòti an Égypte. Ethiopie va fè vit pou lonje men l vè Bondye.
Kings will give you offerings, they will come out of Egypt; from Pathros will come offerings of silver; Ethiopia will be stretching out her hands to God.
32 Chante a Bondye, O wayòm sou latè yo, Chante lwanj a Senyè a, Tan
Make songs to God, you kingdoms of the earth; O make songs of praise to 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 who goes or the clouds of heaven, the heaven which was from earliest times; he sends out his voice of power.
34 Rekonèt fòs Bondye a! Majeste Li sou tout Israël, pwisans Li nan syèl yo.
Make clear that strength is God's: he is lifted up over Israel, and his power is in the clouds.
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, you are to be feared in your holy place: the God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God.
