Sòm 77

1 Pou direktè koral la: pou Jeduthun. Yon Sòm Asaph Vwa m leve vè Bondye! Mwen kriye pou sekou. Vwa m leve vè Bondye pou L tande mwen.

I will cry to God with my voice, even to God with my voice, and he will give ear to me.

2 Nan jou gwo twoub mwen an, mwen te chache SENYÈ a. Nan nwit, mwen te lonje men m san poze. Nanm mwen te refize rekonfòte.

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not. My soul refused to be comforted.

3 Lè mwen sonje Bondye, alò, lespri m twouble. Mwen fè soupi; lespri m febli nèt.

I remember God, and am disquieted. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)

4 Ou te kenbe zye mwen yo louvri. Mwen tèlman twouble ke m pa kab pale.

Thou have held my eyelids watching. I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

5 Mwen te reflechi sou jou lansyen yo, ane lontan yo.

I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

6 Chanson mwen, mwen va sonje pandan lannwit. Mwen reflechi tout tan nan kè mwen. Lespri m reflechi jis rive nan fon kè m:

I call to remembrance my song in the night. I commune with my own heart, and my spirit makes diligent search.

7 “Èske Senyè a va rejte nou pou tout tan? Èske Li p ap janm kite favè Li vini sou nou ankò?

Will the Lord cast off forever? And will he be favorable no more?

8 Èske lanmou dous Li a kite nou pou tout tan? Èske pwomès Li yo fini nèt?

Has his loving kindness entirely gone forever? Does his promise fail for evermore?

9 Èske Bondye te bliye gras Li, Oswa nan kòlè Li, èske Li te retire mizerikòd Li a?” Tan

Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his tender mercies? (Selah)

10 Epi mwen te di: “Se chagren mwen ki fè m panse men dwat a Wo Pwisan an vin chanje.”

And I said, This is my infirmity, the change of the right hand of the Most High.

11 Mwen va sonje zèv SENYÈ yo. Anverite, Mwen va sonje mèvèy Ou yo nan tan ansyen yo.

I will make mention of the deeds of Jehovah, for I will remember thy wonders of old.

12 Mwen va reflechi tout tan sou tout zèv Ou yo, pou m sonje nan kè m tout sa Ou te fè.

I will meditate also upon all thy work, and muse on thy doings.

13 Chemen Ou a, O Bondye, se apa. Ki dye ki gran tankou Bondye pa nou an?

Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary. Who is a great god like God?

14 Ou se Bondye ki fè zèv mèvèy. Ou te fè pwisans Ou rekonèt pami pèp yo.

Thou are the God who does wonders. Thou have made known thy strength among the peoples.

15 Avèk pwòp pouvwa Ou, Ou te rachte pèp Ou a, fis a Jacob yo avèk Joseph. Tan

With thine arm thou have redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)

16 Dlo yo te wè Ou, O Bondye. Dlo yo te wè Ou. Yo te nan gran doulè. Anplis, fon yo te boulvèse.

The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee. They were afraid. The depths also trembled.

17 Nwaj yo te vide gwo dlo. Syèl yo te bay gwo kout loray. Flèch Ou yo te lime pa isit e pa lòtbò.

The clouds poured out water. The skies sent out a sound. Thine arrows also went abroad.

18 Bwi tonnè a eklate nan toubiyon an. Loray yo te klere tout tè a. Mond lan te tranble. Li te souke.

The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lightened the world. The earth trembled and shook.

19 Chemen Ou an te nan lanmè a, e vwa Ou nan dlo pwisan yo. Kote Ou mache p ap kab dekouvri menm.

Thy way was in the sea, and thy paths in the great waters. And thy footsteps were not known.

20 Ou te dirije pèp Ou a tankou yon bann, pa men Moïse avèk Aaron.

Thou led thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
