Psalms 77

1 For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by Asaph. My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.

Pou direktè koral la: pou Jeduthun. Yon Sòm Asaph Vwa m leve vè Bondye! Mwen kriye pou sekou. Vwa m leve vè Bondye pou L tande mwen.

2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn’t get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.

Nan jou gwo twoub mwen an, mwen te chache SENYÈ a. Nan nwit, mwen te lonje men m san poze. Nanm mwen te refize rekonfòte.

3 I remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)

Lè mwen sonje Bondye, alò, lespri m twouble. Mwen fè soupi; lespri m febli nèt.

4 You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can’t speak.

Ou te kenbe zye mwen yo louvri. Mwen tèlman twouble ke m pa kab pale.

5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

Mwen te reflechi sou jou lansyen yo, ane lontan yo.

6 I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:

Chanson mwen, mwen va sonje pandan lannwit. Mwen reflechi tout tan nan kè mwen. Lespri m reflechi jis rive nan fon kè m:

7 “Will the Lord reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?

“Èske Senyè a va rejte nou pou tout tan? Èske Li p ap janm kite favè Li vini sou nou ankò?

8 Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?

Èske lanmou dous Li a kite nou pou tout tan? Èske pwomès Li yo fini nèt?

9 Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?” (Selah)

Èske Bondye te bliye gras Li, Oswa nan kòlè Li, èske Li te retire mizerikòd Li a?” Tan

10 Then I thought, “I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High.”

Epi mwen te di: “Se chagren mwen ki fè m panse men dwat a Wo Pwisan an vin chanje.”

11 I will remember Yah’s deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old.

Mwen va sonje zèv SENYÈ yo. Anverite, Mwen va sonje mèvèy Ou yo nan tan ansyen yo.

12 I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings.

Mwen va reflechi tout tan sou tout zèv Ou yo, pou m sonje nan kè m tout sa Ou te fè.

13 Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God?

Chemen Ou a, O Bondye, se apa. Ki dye ki gran tankou Bondye pa nou an?

14 You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples.

Ou se Bondye ki fè zèv mèvèy. Ou te fè pwisans Ou rekonèt pami pèp yo.

15 You have redeemed your people with your arm, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)

Avèk pwòp pouvwa Ou, Ou te rachte pèp Ou a, fis a Jacob yo avèk Joseph. Tan

16 The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed.

Dlo yo te wè Ou, O Bondye. Dlo yo te wè Ou. Yo te nan gran doulè. Anplis, fon yo te boulvèse.

17 The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around.

Nwaj yo te vide gwo dlo. Syèl yo te bay gwo kout loray. Flèch Ou yo te lime pa isit e pa lòtbò.

18 The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook.

Bwi tonnè a eklate nan toubiyon an. Loray yo te klere tout tè a. Mond lan te tranble. Li te souke.

19 Your way was through the sea, your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.

Chemen Ou an te nan lanmè a, e vwa Ou nan dlo pwisan yo. Kote Ou mache p ap kab dekouvri menm.

20 You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Ou te dirije pèp Ou a tankou yon bann, pa men Moïse avèk Aaron.
