Psalms 72
1 For Solomon. O God, give your judgment to the king, and your righteousness to the king's son;
Se yon sòm Salomon. Bondye, moutre wa a jan pou l' dirije tankou ou! Bay pitit wa a pouvwa pou l' gouvènen jan ou vle l' la!
2 [that he may] judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with judgment.
Konsa, l'a gouvènen pèp ou a san patipri, l'a gouvènen malere ou yo jan sa dwe fèt.
3 Let the mountains and the hills raise peace to your people:
Nan tout mòn peyi a, moun va viv byen yonn ak lòt. p'ap gen lenjistis nan okenn ti mòn peyi a.
4 he shall judge the poor of the people in righteousness, and save the children of the needy; and shall bring low the false accuser.
Wa a va defann kòz malere ki nan peyi a. L'a wete pitit pòv malere yo nan mizè yo ye a. L'a kraze moun k'ap peze pèp la.
5 And he shall continue as long as the sun, and before the moon for ever.
Se pou l' viv lontan, tout tan va gen solèy ak lalin pou bay limyè. Wi, se pou li viv tout tan tout tan.
6 He shall come down as rain upon a fleece; and as drops falling upon the earth.
Se pou wa a tankou lapli k'ap tonbe nan jaden, tankou gwo lapli k'ap wouze tè a.
7 In his days shall righteousness spring up; and abundance of peace till the moon be removed.
Sou reny li, ap gen jistis toupatou. Tout moun va viv byen yonn ak lòt tout tan va gen lalin pou bay limyè.
8 And he shall have dominion from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
L'ap gouvènen depi yon lanmè jouk nan lòt lanmè a, depi larivyè Lefrat jouk nan dènye bout latè a.
9 The Ethiopians shall fall down before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
Moun ki rete nan dezè a pral soumèt devan li, lènmi l' yo pral manje pousyè.
10 The kings of Tharsis, and the isles, shall bring presents: the kings of the Arabians and Saba shall offer gifts.
Wa peyi Tasis ak wa zile yo va vin ofri l' kado. Wa peyi Saba ak wa peyi Seba va pote kado ba li.
11 And all kings shall worship him; all the Gentiles shall serve him.
Wa tout lòt peyi yo va soumèt devan li. Tout lòt peyi yo va sèvi l'.
12 For he has delivered the poor from the oppressor; and the needy who had no helper.
L'a delivre pòv yo lè yo rele nan pye li. L'a delivre tout malere ki san sekou.
13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall deliver the souls of the needy.
L'a gen pitye pou pòv malere yo. L'a sove lavi tout moun ki nan bezwen.
14 He shall redeem their souls from usury and injustice: and their name [shall be] precious before him.
L'a delivre yo anba men moun k'ap peze yo, anba men moun k'ap fè yo mechanste. Lavi moun sa yo gen anpil valè pou li!
15 And he shall live, and there shall be given him of the gold of Arabia: and [men] shall pray for him continually; [and] all the day shall they praise him.
Se pou wa a viv lontan! Y'a ba li lò ki soti nan peyi Saba. Y'a toujou lapriyè pou li. Y'a mande pou Bondye beni li chak jou.
16 There shall be an establishment on the earth on the tops of the mountains: the fruit thereof shall be exalted above Libanus, and they of the city shall flourish as grass of the earth.
Se pou jaden kouvri tout peyi a, jouk sou tèt mòn yo. Se pou yo donnen tankou jaden peyi Liban. Se pou lavil yo plen moun tankou zèb k'ap pouse nan jaden.
17 Let his name be blessed for ever: his name shall endure longer than the sun: and all the tribes of the earth shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
Se pou yo pa janm bliye non li. Toutotan va gen solèy pou klere tè a, se pou y'ap nonmen non li. Se pou tout nasyon fè lwanj li. Se pou tout moun mande Bondye pou l' beni yo menm jan li beni wa a.
18 Blessed is the Lord God of Israel, who alone does wonders.
Fè lwanj Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Se li menm sèl ki ka fè bèl mèvèy sa yo.
19 And blessed is his glorious name for ever, even for ever and ever: and all the earth shall be filled with his glory. So be it, so be it.
Fè lwanj li pou gwo pouvwa li. Se pou toupatou sou latè yo rekonèt gwo pouvwa li. Wi, se vre! Amèn!
20 The hymns of David the son of Jessae are ended.
Avèk sòm sa a, nou fini ak lapriyè David, pitit Izayi a, te fè.
