Sòm 9
1 Pou direktè koral la; Yon sòm David Mwen va bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a ak tout kè m; Mwen va pale tout mèvèy Ou yo.
[For the choir director; according to Muth-labben. A Psalm by David.] I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works.
2 Mwen va fè kè kontan e rejwi nan Ou; Mwen va chante lwanj non Ou, O Pi Wo a.
I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
3 Lè lènmi m yo vire fè bak, yo tonbe e peri devan Ou.
When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
4 Paske Ou te bay soutyen a dwa m, avèk koz mwen ki jis; Ou chita sou twòn Ou e fè jijman avèk ladwati.
For you have upheld my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
5 Ou te fè chatiman nasyon yo; Ou te detwi mechan yo; Ou te efase non yo jis pou tout tan e pou tout tan.
You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
6 Lènmi an te rive a nan fen, e li te kraze nèt. Ou te dechouke vil yo, jiskaske memwa a yo vin disparèt.
The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin; and the very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
7 Men SENYÈ a la jis pou tout tan; Li te etabli twòn Li pou jijman.
But the LORD reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.
8 Li va jije mond lan avèk ladwati; Li va rann jijman pou pèp yo avèk jistis.
And he will judge the world in righteousness. He will judge the peoples with equity.
9 SENYÈ a va osi yon sitadèl pou (sila) ki oprime yo; yon sitadèl nan tan twoub la.
The LORD will also be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
10 (Sila) ki konnen non Ou yo, va mete konfyans yo nan Ou, paske Ou menm, SENYÈ, pa janm abandone (sila) ki mete konfyans nan Ou yo.
And those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
11 Chante lwanj a SENYÈ a, ki rete nan Sion; deklare pami pèp yo zèv Li yo.
Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.
12 Paske (Sila) ki egzije san an sonje yo; Li pa janm bliye kri a (sila) ki oprime yo.
For he who takes revenge against murderers remembers them. He doesn't forget the cry of the afflicted.
13 Fè m gras, O SENYÈ; gade byen soufrans mwen akoz (sila) ki rayi mwen yo, e fè m leve soti nan pòtay lanmò yo,
Have mercy on me, LORD. See my affliction by those who hate me. You lift me up from the gates of death,
14 pou m kab pale tout lwanj a Ou menm. Konsa, nan pòtay a fi Sion yo, mwen kapab rejwi nan delivrans Ou.
so that I may tell all your praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will rejoice in your salvation.
15 Nasyon yo fin fonse kole nan twou fòs yo te fè a; nan pèlen yo te fè, pwòp pye yo vin kole ladann.
The nations have fallen into the pit they had made. In the net which they hid, their feet are caught.
16 Senyè a te leve tèt Li pou yo wè; Li te rann jijman an. Nan zèv a pwòp men Li, mechan an kole nan pwòp pèlen li. Tan
The LORD has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
18 Paske malere yo p ap bliye jis pou tout tan, ni espwa a aflije yo p ap peri pou tout tan.
For the needy shall not always be forgotten; the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
19 Leve, O SENYÈ, pa kite lòm vin genyen; kite nasyon yo jije devan Ou.
Arise, LORD. Do not let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your presence.
20 Bay yo lakrent, O SENYÈ; fè nasyon yo konnen ke se sèlman lòm yo ye. Tan
Terrify them, LORD. Let the nations know that they are only human. (Selah)
