Sòm 75

1 Pou direktè koral la; pou jwe a melodi “Pa Detwi” Yon Sòm Asaph, yon Chanson Nou bay remèsiman a Ou menm, O Bondye, Nou bay remèsiman, paske Non Ou toupre. Moun yo fè deklarasyon zèv mèvèy Ou yo.

[For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A Psalm by Asaph. A song.] We give thanks to you, God. We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works.

2 “Lè Mwen menm fikse yon tan ki apwente, Mwen va jije avèk jistis.

When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly.

3 Latè avèk tout sa ki ladann souke. Se Mwen menm ki kenbe pilye li yo.” Tan

The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. (Selah)

4 Mwen te di a awogan yo: “Pa vin ògeye!” A mechan an: “Pa leve kòn nan.

I said to the arrogant, "Do not boast." I said to the wicked, "Do not lift up the horn.

5 Pa leve kòn ou anwo. Pa pale kou rèd avèk ògèy ensolan.”

Do not lift up your horn on high. Do not speak with a stiff neck."

6 Paske ni sòti nan lès, ni nan lwès, ni bò kote dezè a, kab gen fòs pou leve moun anwo;

For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.

7 Men Bondye se jij la. Li fè yon moun desann, e li leve yon lòt fè l wo.

But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another.

8 Paske gen yon tas nan men SENYÈ a, e diven an ap kimen. Li byen mele e Bondye vide fè l sòti ladann. Anverite, tout mechan yo oblije bwè l jis rive nan dènye ti gout li.

For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours it out. Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs.

9 Men pou mwen, mwen va deklare sa, jis pou tout tan. Mwen va chante lwanj a Bondye Jacob la.

But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 Tout kòn a mechan yo, Mwen va koupe fè yo sòti nèt. Men kòn a moun ladwati yo va leve wo.

I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
