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 Musician. Of David. A Psalm: a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, and let them 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, thou wilt drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, the wicked shall 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 the righteous shall rejoice: they shall exult before God and be glad with 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!
Sing unto God, sing forth his name; cast up a way for him that rideth in the deserts: his name is Jah; and rejoice 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 maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out 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 at the presence of God, yon Sinai, 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 pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.
10 Moun pa Ou yo te vin rete ladann. Ou te founi tout bonte Ou pou malere yo, O Bondye.
Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, 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 the host of the publishers.
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.
Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.
14 Lè Toupwisan an te gaye wa yo la a, Nèj t ap tonbe sou Tsalmon.
When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.
15 Yon mòn Bondye se Mòn Basan. Yon mòn apik e difisil se Mòn Basan.
[As] mount Bashan is the mount of God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount 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 do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] 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, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.
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 captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.
19 Beni se Senyè a, ki pote fado nou chak jou, Bondye ki se delivrans nou an. Tan
Blessed be the Lord: day by day doth he load us [with good], 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.
Our God is the God of salvation; and with Jehovah, the Lord, are the goings forth [even] from death.
21 Anverite, Bondye va kraze tèt lènmi Li yo, tèt la menm ak cheve a (sila) ki pèsiste nan mechanste li yo.
Verily God will smite the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth on still in his trespasses.
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 depth 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 dip thy foot in blood: the tongue of thy dogs has its portion from 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, the goings of my God, my King, in 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 players on stringed instruments after, in the midst of maidens playing on tabrets.
26 Beni Bondye nan asanble yo, SENYÈ a menm, fontèn dlo Israël la.
In the congregations bless ye God, the Lord, — [ye] 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, their ruler; the princes of Judah, their company; 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 shall kings 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 beast of the reeds, the assembly of the strong, with the calves of the peoples: [every one] submitteth himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples that delight in war.
31 Prens yo va sòti an Égypte. Ethiopie va fè vit pou lonje men l vè Bondye.
Great ones shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall quickly stretch out her hands unto God.
32 Chante a Bondye, O wayòm sou latè yo, Chante lwanj a Senyè a, Tan
Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; sing psalms of 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.
Of him that rideth upon the heavens, the 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 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!
Terrible art thou, O God, out of thy sanctuaries, — the God of Israel! He it is that giveth strength and might unto the people. Blessed be God!
