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.” Incline thine ear, O LORD! and hear me, For I am poor and distressed!
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 life, for I am devoted to thee! Save, O thou my God! thy servant who trusteth in thee!
3 Montre m gras Ou, O SENYÈ, paske se a Ou menm mwen kriye tout lajounen.
Have pity upon me, O Lord! For to thee do I cry daily!
4 Fè nanm a sèvitè Ou a kontan, paske a Ou menm, SENYÈ, mwen leve nanm mwen.
Revive the soul of thy servant, For to thee, O Lord! do I lift up my soul!
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 thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; Yea, rich in mercy to all that call upon thee!
6 Prete zòrèy Ou, O SENYÈ, a lapriyè mwen. Prete atansyon a vwa siplikasyon mwen yo.
Give ear, O 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 trouble I call upon thee, For thou dost answer me!
8 Nanpwen tankou Ou pami dye yo, O Senyè, ni nanpwen zèv tankou pa Ou yo.
Among the gods there is none like thee, O Lord! And there are no works like thy 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 thou hast made must come and worship before thee, O Lord! And glorify thy name!
10 Paske Ou gran e fè zèv ki mèvèye. Se Ou sèl ki Bondye.
For great art thou, and wondrous are thy works; Thou alone art God!
11 Montre m chemen Ou an, O SENYÈ. Mwen va mache nan verite Ou. Fè kè m dispoze pou krent non Ou.
Teach me, O LORD! thy way, That I may walk in thy truth; Unite all my heart to fear thy 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 praise thee, O Lord, my God! with my whole heart; I will give glory to thy name for ever!
13 Paske lanmou dous Ou anvè mwen gran, e Ou te delivre nanm mwen soti nan fon sejou lanmò yo. (Sheol h7585)
For thy kindness to me hath been great; Thou hast delivered me from the depths of the underworld! (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 proud have risen against me; Bands of cruel men seek my life, And set not thee before their eyes.
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.
But thou, O Lord! art a God full of compassion and kindness, Long-suffering, rich in mercy and truth!
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 upon me, and have compassion upon me! Give thy strength to thy servant, And save the son of thy 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.
Show me a token for good, That my enemies may see it and be confounded; Because thou, O LORD! helpest and comfortest me!
