22 ¶ (22:1) Pou chèf sanba yo. Se pou yo chante l' sou lè chante ki di: Nan granmaten yon fenmèl kabrit. Se yon sòm David. (22:2) Bondye, Bondye m', poukisa ou lage m' konsa? Poukisa ou rete lwen konsa, san pote m' sekou, san koute jan m'ap plenn lan?

(22:3) Tout lajounen m'ap rele ou, Bondye mwen, ou pa reponn. Tout lannwit m'ap rele, mwen pa ka dòmi.

(22:4) Men, se ou menm ki Bondye, ou chita sou fotèy ki apa pou ou a. Pèp Izrayèl la ap fè lwanj ou.

(22:5) Zansèt nou yo te mete konfyans yo nan ou. Yo te fè ou konfyans, ou te sove yo.

(22:6) Lè yo te kriye nan pye ou, ou te wete yo nan move pa. Wi, yo te mete konfyans yo nan ou, yo pa t' janm regrèt yo te fè sa.

(22:7) Men, se pa moun mwen ye ankò, se yon vètè mwen tounen. Tout moun ap meprize m', tout moun ap pase m' nan betiz.

(22:8) Tout moun ki wè m' pase m' nan rizib. Y'ap lonje dwèt sou mwen, y'ap fè siy sou mwen.

(22:9) Y'ap di m' konsa: -Jan ou te konte sou Seyè a, poukisa li pa delivre ou? Si Seyè a renmen ou, poukisa li pa ede ou?

(22:10) Se ou menm ki te fè m' soti san danje nan vant manman m'. Se ou menm ankò ki te pwoteje m' lè m' te nan tete.

10 (22:11) Depi nan vant manman m', se ou menm k'ap pwoteje m'. Depi anvan mwen te fèt, se ou menm ki Bondye mwen.

11 ¶ (22:12) Pa rete lwen m' konsa. Malè prèt pou tonbe sou mwen, mwen pa gen pesonn pou ede m'.

12 (22:13) Lènmi m' yo anpil, yo sènen m' toupatou. Yo tankou gwo towo bèf peyi Bazan. Kote m' vire yo la.

13 (22:14) Yo louvri bouch yo, ou ta di se lyon k'ap gwonde, ki prèt pou dechire mwen.

14 (22:15) Mwen pèdi tout fòs mwen, tankou dlo ki tonbe atè. Tout zo nan kò m' dejwente. Mwen santi kè m' ap kase, tout zantray mwen ap bouyi.

15 (22:16) Fòs mwen ap cheche, tankou labou nan solèy. Lang mwen kole nan fon bouch mwen. Mwen santi m' prèt pou mouri.

16 (22:17) Tankou yon bann chen, mechan yo sènen m'. Bann mechan yo fèmen m' toupatou. Yo kraze de men m' ak de pye m' yo.

17 (22:18) Tout zo nan kò m' parèt. Y'ap gade m', y'ap veye m'.

18 (22:19) Y'ap separe rad mwen ant yo menm, y'ap tire osò pou rad mwen an.

19 (22:20) Pa rete lwen m' konsa, Seyè. Ou menm ki tout fòs mwen, prese vin pote m' sekou.

20 (22:21) Pa kite yo touye m' ak kout nepe. Pa kite chen yo devore m'.

21 (22:22) Wete m' nan bouch lyon yo. Delivre m' anba towo savann sa yo. Ou reponn mwen, Seyè!

22 ¶ (22:23) M'a di frè m' yo tout sa ou te fè pou mwen. M'a fè lwanj ou lè yo tout reyini ansanm.

23 (22:24) Nou tout ki gen krentif pou Seyè a, fè lwanj li. Nou tout pitit pitit Jakòb yo, chante pou li. Nou tout pèp Izrayèl la, adore li.

24 (22:25) Li pa meprize pòv yo, li pa fèmen je l' sou soufrans yo. Li pa rete lwen yo. Lè yo rele l', li reponn.

25 (22:26) M'a fè lwanj ou pou sa ou fè, nan mitan tout moun yo lè yo reyini. M'a fè sa mwen te pwomèt ou yo, devan tout moun ki gen krentif pou ou yo.

26 (22:27) Pòv yo va manje mezi yo kapab. Moun k'ap chache Seyè a va fè lwanj li. Y'a viv ak kè poze pou tout tan.

27 (22:28) Tout nasyon va chonje sa Seyè a te fè. Toupatou sou latè yo pral tounen vin jwenn li. Moun tout peyi va adore li.

28 (22:29) Se Seyè a ki wa. Se li ki donminen sou tout nasyon.

29 (22:30) Tout grannèg sou latè va bese tèt devan li. Yo tout ki la pou mouri, yo tout ki la pou al anba tè, yo pral adore li.

30 (22:31) Jenerasyon k'ap vini yo va sèvi li. Moun va rakonte istwa Seyè a bay pitit yo.

31 (22:32) Pitit yo menm, lè y'a fè pitit, y'a fè konnen jan Seyè a te delivre yo ansanm ak tou sa li te fè pou yo.

Psalm 22[a]

For the director of music. To the tune of “The Doe of the Morning.” A psalm of David.

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?(A)
    Why are you so far(B) from saving me,
    so far from my cries of anguish?(C)
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,(D)
    by night,(E) but I find no rest.[b]

Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;(F)
    you are the one Israel praises.[c](G)
In you our ancestors put their trust;
    they trusted and you delivered them.(H)
To you they cried out(I) and were saved;
    in you they trusted(J) and were not put to shame.(K)

But I am a worm(L) and not a man,
    scorned by everyone,(M) despised(N) by the people.
All who see me mock me;(O)
    they hurl insults,(P) shaking their heads.(Q)
“He trusts in the Lord,” they say,
    “let the Lord rescue him.(R)
Let him deliver him,(S)
    since he delights(T) in him.”

Yet you brought me out of the womb;(U)
    you made me trust(V) in you, even at my mother’s breast.
10 From birth(W) I was cast on you;
    from my mother’s womb you have been my God.

11 Do not be far from me,(X)
    for trouble is near(Y)
    and there is no one to help.(Z)

12 Many bulls(AA) surround me;(AB)
    strong bulls of Bashan(AC) encircle me.
13 Roaring lions(AD) that tear their prey(AE)
    open their mouths wide(AF) against me.
14 I am poured out like water,
    and all my bones are out of joint.(AG)
My heart has turned to wax;(AH)
    it has melted(AI) within me.
15 My mouth[d] is dried up like a potsherd,(AJ)
    and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;(AK)
    you lay me in the dust(AL) of death.

16 Dogs(AM) surround me,
    a pack of villains encircles me;
    they pierce[e](AN) my hands and my feet.
17 All my bones are on display;
    people stare(AO) and gloat over me.(AP)
18 They divide my clothes among them
    and cast lots(AQ) for my garment.(AR)

19 But you, Lord, do not be far from me.(AS)
    You are my strength;(AT) come quickly(AU) to help me.(AV)
20 Deliver me from the sword,(AW)
    my precious life(AX) from the power of the dogs.(AY)
21 Rescue me from the mouth of the lions;(AZ)
    save me from the horns of the wild oxen.(BA)

22 I will declare your name to my people;
    in the assembly(BB) I will praise you.(BC)
23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!(BD)
    All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!(BE)
    Revere him,(BF) all you descendants of Israel!
24 For he has not despised(BG) or scorned
    the suffering of the afflicted one;(BH)
he has not hidden his face(BI) from him
    but has listened to his cry for help.(BJ)

25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;(BK)
    before those who fear you[f] I will fulfill my vows.(BL)
26 The poor will eat(BM) and be satisfied;
    those who seek the Lord will praise him—(BN)
    may your hearts live forever!

27 All the ends of the earth(BO)
    will remember and turn to the Lord,
and all the families of the nations
    will bow down before him,(BP)
28 for dominion belongs to the Lord(BQ)
    and he rules over the nations.

29 All the rich(BR) of the earth will feast and worship;(BS)
    all who go down to the dust(BT) will kneel before him—
    those who cannot keep themselves alive.(BU)
30 Posterity(BV) will serve him;
    future generations(BW) will be told about the Lord.
31 They will proclaim his righteousness,(BX)
    declaring to a people yet unborn:(BY)
    He has done it!(BZ)
