Sòm 81
1 Pou direktè koral la; pou jwe sou Gitia la. Yon Sòm Asaph Chante avèk jwa a Bondye ki se fòs nou! Rele fò ak jwa a Bondye a Jacob la!
For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. By Asaph. Sing aloud to God, our strength! Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob!
2 Leve yon chan, bat tanbouren an, gita ak son ki dous la ansanm avèk ap la.
Raise a song, and bring here the tambourine, the pleasant lyre with the harp.
3 Sone twonpèt la nan nouvèl lin nan, sou plèn lin nan, nan jou fèt nou an.
Blow the trumpet at the New Moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.
4 Paske se yon règleman Israël, yon òdonans a Bondye Jacob la.
For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5 Li te etabli li kon yon temwayaj nan Joseph lè li te ale toupatou nan peyi Égypte la. Mwen te tande yon lang ke M pa t konnen.
He appointed it in Joseph for a covenant, when he went out over the land of Egypt, I heard a language that I did not know.
6 Mwen te retire fado a sou zepòl li. Men li yo te vin lib panyen an.
“I removed his shoulder from the burden. His hands were freed from the basket.
7 Ou te rele nan twoub la e Mwen te fè ou sekou. Mwen te reponn Ou nan plas kote tonnè a kache a. Mwen te fè ou pase eprèv nan dlo Meriba yo. Tan
You called in trouble, and I delivered you. I answered you in the secret place of thunder. I tested you at the waters of Meribah.” (Selah)
8 Tande, O pèp Mwen an e Mwen va korije nou. O Israël, si ou ta koute Mwen!
“Hear, my people, and I will testify to you, Israel, if you would listen to me!
9 Pa kite okenn dye etranje rete pami nou. Ni nou pa pou adore okenn dye etranje.
There shall be no strange god in you, neither shall you worship any foreign god.
10 Mwen menm, SENYÈ a, se Bondye nou an, ki te mennen nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la. Ouvri bouch nou byen laj e mwen va ranpli li.
I am the LORD, your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 Men pèp Mwen an pa t koute vwa M. Ni Israël pa t obeyi Mwen.
But my people did not listen to my voice. Israel desired none of me.
12 Akoz sa, Mwen te lage yo a kè di yo, pou mache nan pwòp manèv yo.
So I let them go after the stubbornness of their hearts, that they might walk in their own counsels.
13 O ke pèp Mwen an ta koute Mwen, ke Israël ta mache nan vwa Mwen yo!
Oh that my people would listen to me, that Israel would walk in my ways!
14 Mwen ta soumèt lènmi yo byen vit e ta vire men m kont advèsè yo.
I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn my hand against their adversaries.
15 (Sila) ki rayi SENYÈ yo ta tresayi devan Li menm e pinisyon yo ta pou tout tan.
The haters of the LORD would cringe before him, and their punishment would last forever.
16 Men ou menm, Mwen ta nouri ou avèk pi bon kalite ble a. Avèk siwo ki sòti nan wòch, Mwen ta satisfè ou.
But he would have also fed them with the finest of the wheat. I will satisfy you with honey out of the rock.”
