< Sòm 76 >
1 Pou direktè koral la; sou enstriman ak kòd Yon Sòm Asaph, yon Chanson Bondye byen rekonèt nan Juda. Non Li gran an Israël.
For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.
2 Tabènak Li a nan Salem. Abitasyon Li an osi nan Sion.
And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.
3 La, Li te kase flèch dife yo, boukliye ak nepe ak zam lagè yo.
There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)
4 Ou manyifik, pi majeste pase mòn ak bèt lachas yo.
You do wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.
5 (Sila) ak gran kouraj yo te piyaje, yo te fonse tonbe nan dòmi mò a. Okenn nan gèrye yo ka sèvi men yo.
All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.
6 Nan repwòch Ou, O Bondye Jacob, ni chevalye yo ak cheval la te tonbe nan yon pwofon somèy.
At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.
7 Ou menm, Ou merite lakrent. Se kilès ki kab kanpe nan prezans Ou lè Ou fache?
You are terrible; and who shall withstand you, because of your anger?
8 Ou te fè jijman tande soti nan syèl la. Latè te krent, e te kanpe rete an plas
You did cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
9 lè Bondye te leve nan jijman an, pou sove tout enb sou latè yo. Tan
when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek in heart. (Pause)
10 Paske kòlè a lòm va bay Ou glwa. Se retay kòlè pa W, ki sispann fè mal.
For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to you: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to you.
11 Fè ve Ou yo a SENYÈ a, Bondye Ou a e akonpli yo. Kite tout (sila) ki antoure Li yo mennen don a (Sila) ki merite lakrent lan.
Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,
12 Li va koupe retire nanm a prens yo. Wa latè yo gen lakrent Li.
and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible among the kings of the earth.
