Sòm 13

1 Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Konbe tan ankò w'a bliye m', Seyè? Gen lè ou bliye m' nèt? Konbe tan ankò m'a rete san m' pa wè ou?

To the choirmaster a psalm of David. Until when? O Yahweh will you forget me perpetuity until when? - will you hide face your from me.

2 Konbe tan ankò pou m' soufri? Konbe tan ankò pou m' gen lapenn nan kè mwen, pou m' gen lapenn lajounen kou lannwit? Konbe tan ankò lènmi m' yo va pilonnen m' anba pye yo?

Until when? will I set counsel in soul my sorrow in heart my by day until when? - will he be exalted enemy my over me.

3 Gade m' non, Seyè! Reponn mwen non, Bondye mwen! Kenbe m' pou m' pa mouri.

Pay attention! answer me O Yahweh God my give light to! eyes my lest I should sleep the death.

4 Konsa, moun k'ap pèsekite m' yo p'ap ka di: Nou fini avè l'! Yo p'ap gen chans wè m' tonbe pou yo kontan!

Lest he should say enemy my I have prevailed over him opponents my they will rejoice if I am shaken.

5 Pou mwen menm, se sou ou mwen konte, paske ou renmen m' anpil. Kè m' kontan, paske ou delivre mwen.

And I - in covenant loyalty your I have trusted may it rejoice heart my in deliverance your

6 M'ap chante pou Seyè a, paske li te bon pou mwen.

I will sing to Yahweh for he has dealt bountifully towards me.
