Sòm 86
1 Yon priyè a David Prete m zòrèy Ou, O SENYÈ e reponn mwen. Paske mwen aflije e malere.
A Prayer of David himself. Incline your ear, O Lord, and hear me. For I am needy and poor.
2 Konsève nanm mwen, paske mwen se yon nonm fidèl. Ou menm, Bondye mwen an, sove sèvitè Ou ki mete konfyans nan Ou a.
Preserve my soul, for I am holy. My God, bring salvation to your servant who hopes in you.
3 Montre m gras Ou, O SENYÈ, paske se a Ou menm mwen kriye tout lajounen.
O Lord, be merciful to me, for I have cried out to you all day long.
4 Fè nanm a sèvitè Ou a kontan, paske a Ou menm, SENYÈ, mwen leve nanm mwen.
Give joy to the soul of your servant, for I have lifted up my soul to you, Lord.
5 Paske Ou menm, Senyè a, Ou plen bonte e Ou prèt pou padone, ranpli avèk lanmou dous, pou tout (sila) ki rele sou non Ou yo.
For you are sweet and mild, Lord, and plentiful in mercy to all who call upon you.
6 Prete zòrèy Ou, O SENYÈ, a lapriyè mwen. Prete atansyon a vwa siplikasyon mwen yo.
Pay attention, Lord, to my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplication.
7 Nan jou twoub mwen an, mwen va rele Ou, paske Ou va reponn mwen.
In the day of my tribulation, I cried out to you, because you heeded me.
8 Nanpwen tankou Ou pami dye yo, O Senyè, ni nanpwen zèv tankou pa Ou yo.
There is no one like you among the gods, O Lord, and there is no one like you in your works.
9 Tout nasyon ke Ou te fè yo, va vini pou adore devan Ou, O Senyè, e yo va bay non Ou glwa.
All the nations, which you have made, will draw near and adore in your presence, O Lord. And they will glorify your name.
10 Paske Ou gran e fè zèv ki mèvèye. Se Ou sèl ki Bondye.
For you are great, and you perform wonders. You alone are God.
11 Montre m chemen Ou an, O SENYÈ. Mwen va mache nan verite Ou. Fè kè m dispoze pou krent non Ou.
Lead me, O Lord, in your way, and I will walk in your truth. May my heart rejoice, so that it will fear your name.
12 Mwen va ba Ou remèsiman, O SENYÈ, Bondye mwen an, avèk tout kè m. Mwen va bay glwa a non Ou jis pou tout tan.
I will confess to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart. And I will glorify your name in eternity.
13 Paske lanmou dous Ou anvè mwen gran, e Ou te delivre nanm mwen soti nan fon sejou lanmò yo. (Sheol h7585)
For your mercy toward me is great, and you have rescued my soul from the lower part of Hell. (Sheol h7585)
14 O Bondye, mesye awogan yo te leve kont mwen, yon bann mesye vyolan ap chache lavi mwen. Yo pa mete Ou devan yo.
O God, the iniquitous have risen up against me, and the synagogue of the powerful have sought my soul, and they have not placed you in their sight.
15 Men Ou menm, O SENYÈ, Ou se yon Bondye ki plen ak gras avèk mizerikòd, lan nan kòlè e plen avèk lanmou dous ak verite.
And you, Lord God, are compassionate and merciful, being patient and full of mercy and truthful.
16 Vire vè mwen e fè m gras. O dispoze fòs Ou a sèvitè Ou a, e fè sekou a fis a sèvant Ou a.
Look down upon me and have mercy on me. Grant your authority to your servant, and bring salvation to the son of your handmaid.
17 Montre m yon sign bonte Ou, pou (sila) ki rayi mwen yo kapab wè l e vin wont. Paske Ou menm, O SENYÈ, te fè m sekou, e te konsole mwen.
Make me a sign of what is good, so that those who hate me, may look and be confounded. For you, O Lord, have helped me and consoled me.
