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.
“To the chief musician on Jeduthun, by Assaph a psalm.” [I lift up] my voice unto God, and I cry; [I lilt up] my voice unto God: do then give ear unto 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.
On the day of my distress I sought the Lord; in the night my hand was stretched out, and did not cease: my soul refused to be comforted.
3 Lè mwen sonje Bondye, alò, lespri m twouble. Mwen fè soupi; lespri m febli nèt.
I think of God, and moan: I reflect, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)
4 Ou te kenbe zye mwen yo louvri. Mwen tèlman twouble ke m pa kab pale.
Thou holdest my eyes awake: I am troubled and I cannot speak.
5 Mwen te reflechi sou jou lansyen yo, ane lontan yo.
I think over 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; with my own heart I reflect: and my spirit maketh 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 me off for ever? and will he never more give his favor again?
8 Èske lanmou dous Li a kite nou pou tout tan? Èske pwomès Li yo fini nèt?
Is his kindness spent for ever? is his promise come to an end for all generations?
9 Èske Bondye te bliye gras Li, Oswa nan kòlè Li, èske Li te retire mizerikòd Li a?” Tan
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? or hath he shut up in anger his 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 shall be my entreaty, [for] the years 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 remember the deeds of the Lord; for I will remember out of ancient times thy wonders.
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 of all thy work, and on thy deeds will I reflect.
13 Chemen Ou a, O Bondye, se apa. Ki dye ki gran tankou Bondye pa nou an?
O God, in holiness is thy way: where is there a god so great as God?
14 Ou se Bondye ki fè zèv mèvèy. Ou te fè pwisans Ou rekonèt pami pèp yo.
Thou art the God that dost wonders: thou hast made known among the people thy strength.
15 Avèk pwòp pouvwa Ou, Ou te rachte pèp Ou a, fis a Jacob yo avèk Joseph. Tan
Thou hast redeemed with [a mighty] arm 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 shook: also the depths 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 forth thunder: also thy arrows sped along.
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; lightnings gave light to the world; the earth trembled and quaked,
19 Chemen Ou an te nan lanmè a, e vwa Ou nan dlo pwisan yo. Kote Ou mache p ap kab dekouvri menm.
Through the sea led thy way, and thy path was through mighty waters, and thy footsteps could not be known.
20 Ou te dirije pèp Ou a tankou yon bann, pa men Moïse avèk Aaron.
Thou didst lead like a flock thy people by means of Moses and Aaron.
