< Psalms 76 >

1 For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se sou enstriman akòd pou yo jwe mizik la. Sòm Asaf sa a, se yon chante li ye. Yo konnen ki moun Bondye ye nan tout peyi Jida. Se tout moun k'ap nonmen non l' nan peyi Izrayèl.
2 And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.
Li gen kay li lavil Salèm, li rete sou mòn Siyon.
3 There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)
Se la li te kase flèch yo, se la li te kase zam yo gen pou defann yo, ak zam yo gen pou atake. Wi, li kase tout zam moun sèvi pou fè lagè.
4 Thou dost wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.
Gade jan ou gen pouvwa, Bondye! Gade jan w'ap mache tèt wo, lè w'ap desann soti nan mòn kote ou te kraze lènmi ou yo!
5 All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.
Sòlda ki te gen anpil kouraj nan lagè pèdi tout zafè yo. Koulye a y'ap dòmi nèt, yo mouri. Pa gen yonn nan vanyan gason sa yo ki te ka defann tèt yo.
6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.
Aa, Bondye Jakòb! Depi ou fè va sou yo, ni kavalye ni chwal, yo tout yo tonbe, yo mouri frèt.
7 Thou art terrible; and who shall withstand thee, because of thine anger?
Men ou menm, ou fè moun respekte ou! Kilès ki ka rete kanpe devan ou lè ou an kòlè?
8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
Ou rete nan syèl la, ou fè konnen jan w'ap jije. Tout moun ki sou latè rete dousman tèlman yo pè,
9 when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek in heart. (Pause)
lè Bondye leve pou bay santans li, pou l' delivre tout malere y'ap peze sou tè a.
10 For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to thee: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to thee.
Menm lè lèzòm an kòlè, sa sèvi yon lwanj pou ou. Moun ou sove anba lanmò va fè fèt pou ou.
11 Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,
Fè pwomès ou bay Seyè a ki Bondye, epi kenbe pawòl ou. Nou menm, tout nasyon ki bò kote l' yo, pote kado bay Bondye ki fè moun respekte l' la.
12 and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible among the kings of the earth.
Li kraze lògèy chèf yo, li fè wa latè yo respekte l'.
