18 ¶ (18:1) Pou chèf sanba yo. Se chante sa a David, sèvitè Seyè a, te chante pou Bondye lè Bondye te delivre l' anba Sayil ansanm ak tout lòt lènmi l' yo. (18:2) Ala renmen mwen renmen ou, Seyè! Se ou menm ki tout fòs mwen.
2 (18:3) Se ou menm ki twou wòch kote m' kache a. Se ou menm ki sèvi m' ranpa. Se ou menm ki delivre m'. Ou se Bondye mwen, se ou menm ki pwoteje m'. Se nan ou mwen mete tout konfyans mwen. Se ou ki tout defans mwen. Se fòs ou k'ap sove m'. Se anba zèl ou mwen jwenn kote pou m' kache.
3 (18:4) Mwen rele Seyè a: Li delivre m' anba lènmi m' yo. Lwanj pou Seyè a!
4 (18:5) Lanmò te fin vlope m'. Mwen te pè lè m' wè tout malè sa yo tonbe sou mwen.
5 (18:6) Privye lanmò te tonbe sou mwen yon sèl kou. Kote m' vire, mwen wè lanmò devan m'.
6 (18:7) Nan mizè mwen te ye a, mwen rele nan pye Seyè a. Mwen mande Bondye m' lan sekou. Kote l' chita lakay li a, li tande vwa mwen, rèl mwen rive jouk nan zòrèy li.
7 (18:8) Lè sa a, latè pran tranble, li souke. Mòn yo pran tranble jouk nan rasin yo. Yon sèl frison pran yo, paske Bondye te ankòlè!
8 (18:9) Lafimen t'ap soti nan twou nen li. Yon gwo flanm dife ak moso chabon tou limen t'ap soti nan bouch li.
9 (18:10) Li bese syèl la, li desann avè yon gwo nwaj nwa anba pye li.
10 (18:11) Li moute sou do yon zanj cheriben, li t'ap vole. Yon kouran van t'ap pouse l' ale.
11 (18:12) Li te kache kò l' nan fènwa. Yon gwo nwaj pwès, plen dlo, te vlope l' toupatou.
12 (18:13) Anpil lagrèl ak anpil chabon dife t'ap soti nan gwo limyè ki t'ap klere devan l' lan.
13 (18:14) Seyè a pran gwonde nan syèl la. Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la fè tout moun tande vwa li.
14 (18:15) Li voye flèch li yo, li gaye tout lènmi m' yo. Li fè yo tout kouri ak kout zèklè.
15 (18:16) Lè ou ankòlè, Seyè, van yo soti ak fòs nan twou nen ou. Lè konsa moun wè fon lanmè a, fondasyon tè a parèt aklè.
16 (18:17) Seyè a rete nan syèl la, li lonje men l', li pran m'. Li rale m' soti nan gwo dlo yo kote m' te ye a.
17 (18:18) Li delivre m' anba gwo lènmi m' yo, anba tout moun sa yo ki te rayi m' epi ki te pi fò pase m'.
18 (18:19) Lè m' te nan tray, yo pwofite atake m'. Men, Seyè a te soutni m'.
19 (18:20) Li wete m' nan move pa a. Li delivre m' paske li renmen mwen.
20 ¶ (18:21) Seyè a ban m' rekonpans mwen, paske li wè m' mache dwat devan li. Li ban m' benediksyon, paske li wè mwen inonsan.
21 (18:22) Mwen te obeyi lalwa Seyè a, mwen pa vire do bay Bondye m' lan pou m' fè sa ki mal.
22 (18:23) Mwen fè tou sa ki nan lalwa li, mwen pa janm dezobeyi kòmandman li yo.
23 (18:24) Li konnen mwen pa antò. Mwen kenbe kò m' pou m' pa fè sa ki mal.
24 (18:25) Se konsa li ban m' rekonpans mwen, paske mwen mache dwat devan li, paske li wè mwen inonsan.
25 (18:26) Ou menm, Seyè, ou kenbe pawòl ou ak moun ki kenbe pawòl yo. Ou bon ak moun ki bon.
26 (18:27) Ou pa fè ipokrit ak moun ki pa fè ipokrit avè ou, men ou malen ak moun ki malen.
27 (18:28) Ou delivre moun ki soumèt devan ou, men ou desann moun ki konprann yo pa kanmarad pesonn.
28 (18:29) Seyè, ou se limyè mwen, ou se Bondye mwen. Se ou ki wete m' nan fènwa kote m' te ye a.
29 ¶ (18:30) Avè ou, mwen fonse sou bann lènmi m' yo ki ame jouk nan dan. Avèk ou, mwen eskalade miray ki sèvi yo defans.
30 (18:31) Bondye oo! Tou sa ou fè bon nèt ale. Ou toujou kenbe pawòl ou. Ou pwoteje tout moun ki chache pwoteksyon anba zèl ou.
31 (18:32) Ki moun ki Bondye si se pa Seyè a? Ki moun ki pran defans nou si se pa Bondye nou an?32 (18:33) Se Bondye ki ban m' fòs, li fè m' mennen yon vi san repwòch.
33 (18:34) Li asire pye m' tankou pye kabrit. Li fè m' mache sou mòn yo, san m' pa tonbe.
34 (18:35) Li moutre m' jan pou m' goumen. Li ban m' fòs pou m' sèvi ak pi gwo banza ki genyen.
35 (18:36) Se ou menm, Seyè, ki pwoteje m'. Se ou ki delivre m'. Si m' kapab leve kanpe, se paske ou renmen m'. Pouvwa ou pa kite m' tonbe.
36 (18:37) Ou pa kite yo bare wout mwen. Mwen pa janm pèdi pye.
37 (18:38) Mwen kouri dèyè lènmi m' yo, mwen jwenn yo. Mwen pa tounen jouk tan mwen pa fin kraze yo nèt.
38 (18:39) Mwen jete yo atè, yo pa ka leve. Yo tonbe, mwen mete pye m' sou kou yo.
39 (18:40) Ou ban m' kont fòs pou batay la. Ou fè lènmi m' yo mande m' padon.
40 (18:41) Ou fè lènmi m' yo kouri devan m'. Mwen disparèt tout moun ki rayi m' yo.
41 (18:42) Y'ap rele, y'ap mande sekou. Men, pa gen moun ki ka delivre yo! Y'ap rele Seyè a, men li pa reponn yo.
42 (18:43) Mwen kraze yo, yo tout tounen pousyè van pote yo ale. Mwen mache sou yo tankou sou labou nan lari.
43 (18:44) Ou delivre m' anba pèp rebèl sa a. Ou mete m' chèf pou m' gouvènen sou tout nasyon yo. Pèp mwen pa t' janm konnen, se yo menm k'ap sèvi m'.
44 (18:45) Moun lòt peyi yo ap flate m'. Kou yo tande vwa m', yo obeyi:
45 (18:46) Yo pèdi tout kouraj yo. Yo soti kote yo te kache a, y'ap tranble kou fèy bwa.
46 (18:47) Viv Seyè a! Lwanj pou moun ki pran defans mwen an! Se Bondye ki delivre mwen! Ann fè konnen jan li gen pouvwa!
47 (18:48) Se Bondye ki pran revanj mwen. Se li ki mete pèp yo anba pye mwen.
48 (18:49) Li sove m' anba lènmi m' yo. Li wete m' anba men moun ki t'ap konbat mwen yo. Ou delivre m' anba ansasen yo.
49 (18:50) Se poutèt sa, Seyè, m'a fè moun lòt nasyon yo konnen ki moun ou ye. M'a chante pou fè lwanj ou.
50 (18:51) Bondye delivre wa li a anpil fwa. Li moutre jan li pa janm sispann renmen David, moun li te chwazi a, ansanm ak pitit pitit li yo pou tout tan.
Psalm 18
New International Version
Psalm 18
New International Version
Psalm 18[a](A)
For the director of music. Of David the servant of the Lord. He sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said:
1 I love you, Lord, my strength.(B)
2 The Lord is my rock,(C) my fortress(D) and my deliverer;(E)
my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,(F)
my shield[b](G) and the horn[c] of my salvation,(H) my stronghold.
3 I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,(I)
and I have been saved from my enemies.(J)
4 The cords of death(K) entangled me;
the torrents(L) of destruction overwhelmed me.
5 The cords of the grave coiled around me;
the snares of death(M) confronted me.
6 In my distress(N) I called to the Lord;(O)
I cried to my God for help.
From his temple he heard my voice;(P)
my cry came(Q) before him, into his ears.
7 The earth trembled(R) and quaked,(S)
and the foundations of the mountains shook;(T)
they trembled because he was angry.(U)
8 Smoke rose from his nostrils;(V)
consuming fire(W) came from his mouth,
burning coals(X) blazed out of it.
9 He parted the heavens and came down;(Y)
dark clouds(Z) were under his feet.
10 He mounted the cherubim(AA) and flew;
he soared(AB) on the wings of the wind.(AC)
11 He made darkness his covering,(AD) his canopy(AE) around him—
the dark rain clouds of the sky.
12 Out of the brightness of his presence(AF) clouds advanced,
with hailstones(AG) and bolts of lightning.(AH)
13 The Lord thundered(AI) from heaven;
the voice of the Most High resounded.[d]
14 He shot his arrows(AJ) and scattered the enemy,
with great bolts of lightning(AK) he routed them.(AL)
15 The valleys of the sea were exposed
and the foundations(AM) of the earth laid bare
at your rebuke,(AN) Lord,
at the blast of breath from your nostrils.(AO)
16 He reached down from on high and took hold of me;
he drew me out of deep waters.(AP)
17 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,(AQ)
from my foes, who were too strong for me.(AR)
18 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,(AS)
but the Lord was my support.(AT)
19 He brought me out into a spacious place;(AU)
he rescued me because he delighted in me.(AV)
20 The Lord has dealt with me according to my righteousness;(AW)
according to the cleanness of my hands(AX) he has rewarded me.(AY)
21 For I have kept the ways of the Lord;(AZ)
I am not guilty of turning(BA) from my God.
22 All his laws are before me;(BB)
I have not turned away from his decrees.
23 I have been blameless(BC) before him
and have kept myself from sin.
24 The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,(BD)
according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
25 To the faithful(BE) you show yourself faithful,(BF)
to the blameless you show yourself blameless,
26 to the pure(BG) you show yourself pure,
but to the devious you show yourself shrewd.(BH)
27 You save the humble(BI)
but bring low those whose eyes are haughty.(BJ)
28 You, Lord, keep my lamp(BK) burning;
my God turns my darkness into light.(BL)
29 With your help(BM) I can advance against a troop[e];
with my God I can scale a wall.
30 As for God, his way is perfect:(BN)
The Lord’s word is flawless;(BO)
he shields(BP) all who take refuge(BQ) in him.
31 For who is God besides the Lord?(BR)
And who is the Rock(BS) except our God?
32 It is God who arms me with strength(BT)
and keeps my way secure.(BU)
33 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer;(BV)
he causes me to stand on the heights.(BW)
34 He trains my hands for battle;(BX)
my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
35 You make your saving help my shield,
and your right hand sustains(BY) me;
your help has made me great.
36 You provide a broad path(BZ) for my feet,
so that my ankles do not give way.(CA)
37 I pursued my enemies(CB) and overtook them;
I did not turn back till they were destroyed.
38 I crushed them(CC) so that they could not rise;(CD)
they fell beneath my feet.(CE)
39 You armed me with strength(CF) for battle;
you humbled my adversaries(CG) before me.
40 You made my enemies turn their backs(CH) in flight,
and I destroyed(CI) my foes.
41 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them(CJ)—
to the Lord, but he did not answer.(CK)
42 I beat them as fine as windblown dust;(CL)
I trampled them[f] like mud in the streets.
43 You have delivered me from the attacks of the people;
you have made me the head of nations.(CM)
People I did not know(CN) now serve me,
44 foreigners(CO) cower before me;
as soon as they hear of me, they obey me.
45 They all lose heart;(CP)
they come trembling(CQ) from their strongholds.(CR)
46 The Lord lives!(CS) Praise be to my Rock!(CT)
Exalted be God(CU) my Savior!(CV)
47 He is the God who avenges(CW) me,
who subdues nations(CX) under me,
48 who saves(CY) me from my enemies.(CZ)
You exalted me above my foes;
from a violent man(DA) you rescued me.
49 Therefore I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;(DB)
I will sing(DC) the praises of your name.(DD)
