Sòm 72
1 Yon Sòm a Salomon Bay a wa a sajès lajistis Ou, O Bondye, ak ladwati Ou a fis a wa a.
For Solomon. O God, give your judgement to the king, and your righteousness to the king's son;
2 Li va jije pèp Ou a avèk ladwati, e aflije Ou yo, avèk jistis.
[that he may] judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with judgement.
3 Mòn yo va pote lapè a pèp la, e kolin yo, fwi ladwati a.
Let the mountains and the hills raise peace to your people:
4 Li va jije malere a pèp la. Li va fè sekou pou pitit a malere yo, e kraze opresè a an mòso.
he shall judge the poor of the people in righteousness, and save the children of the needy; and shall bring low the false accuser.
5 Yo va krent Ou pou tout tan ke solèy la klere ak tout tan ke genyen lalin, pandan tout jenerasyon yo.
And he shall continue as long as the sun, and before the moon for ever.
6 Li va desann tankou lapli sou chan zèb fenk koupe yo, tankou farinaj ki wouze tè a.
He shall come down as rain upon a fleece; and as drops falling upon the earth.
7 Nan jou li yo, moun ladwati yo va fleri, avèk lapè an abondans jiskaske lalin nan pa wè ankò.
In his days shall righteousness spring up; and abundance of peace till the moon be removed.
8 Anplis, l ap renye jiskaske yon lanmè rive nan yon lòt lanmè a, e soti nan Rivyè a jis rive nan dènye pwent tè a.
And he shall have dominion from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
9 Pèp ki abite nan dezè a va bese devan l, e lènmi li yo va niche pousyè a.
The Ethiopians shall fall down before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
10 Wa a Tarsis yo avèk lil yo va pote kado. Wa a Séba avèk Saba yo ap ofri kado.
The kings of Tharsis, and the isles, shall bring presents: the kings of the Arabians and Saba shall offer gifts.
11 Konsa, tout wa yo va bese ba devan l, pou tout nasyon yo sèvi li.
And all kings shall worship him; all the Gentiles shall serve him.
12 Paske li va delivre malere a lè l kriye sekou; aflije a tou, lè l san soutyen an.
For he has delivered the poor from the oppressor; and the needy who had no helper.
13 Li va gen mizerikòd sou malere a avèk endijan an. Konsa, lavi a pòv yo, li va sove.
He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall deliver the souls of the needy.
14 Li va rachte lavi yo soti nan opresyon avèk vyolans, e san yo va chè nan zye Li.
He shall redeem their souls from usury and injustice: and their name [shall be] precious before him.
15 Konsa, li va viv, e lò a Séba va bay a li menm. Moun va priye pou li san rete. Yo va beni li tout lajounen.
And he shall live, and there shall be given him of the gold of Arabia: and [men] shall pray for him continually; [and] all the day shall they praise him.
16 Va genyen anpil sereyal sou tout kolin peye a, fwi li yo k ap vannen nan van tankou pye sèd a Liban yo. Sa ki nan vil yo va fleri tankou vèdi latè.
There shall be an establishment on the earth on the tops of the mountains: the fruit thereof shall be exalted above Libanus, and they of the city shall flourish as grass of the earth.
17 Non li va dire jis pou tout tan. Non li va la toutotan solèy la ap briye a. Tout lezòm va beni pa li. Tout nasyon yo va rele li beni.
Let his name be blessed for ever: his name shall endure longer than the sun: and all the tribes of the earth shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
18 Beni se SENYÈ Bondye a, Bondye Israël la! Li sèl ki fè mèvèy!
Blessed is the Lord God of Israel, who alone does wonders.
19 Beni se non laglwa Li jis pou tout tan! Ke tout tè a kapab ranpli ak glwa Li! Amen e amen.
And blessed is his glorious name for ever, even for ever and ever: and all the earth shall be filled with his glory. So be it, so be it.
20 Priyè yo a David, fis la a Jesse fini.
The hymns of David the son of Jessae are ended.
