Psalms 19
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Syèl la fè parèt aklè pouvwa Bondye a. Li fè wè tou sa Bondye te fè ak men l'.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
Jounen jòdi a rakonte koze sa a bay jounen denmen k'ap vini an. Lannwit sa a repete l' bay lannwit ki vin apre a.
3 Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,
Yo pa pale, yo pa di yon mo. Ou pa tande yon ti bwi.
4 their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.
Men, sa yo di a mache ale toupatou sou latè. Mesaj y'ap bay la rive jouk nan dènye bout latè. Bondye moute yon kay nan syèl la pou solèy la.
5 Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,
Solèy la menm soti tankou yon nonm ki fèk marye k'ap soti anndan chanm li. Li kontan, l'ap kouri tankou yon gwonèg ki konnen li deja genyen kous la.
6 it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
Solèy la leve nan yon bout syèl la, li kouche nan lòt bout la. Chalè li bat sou tout bagay.
7 The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple.
Lalwa Seyè a bon sou tout pwen. Li moutre nou jan pou nou viv. Nou mèt gen konfyans nan kòmandman Seyè a. Tout moun ki pa gen konprann, l'ap ba yo konprann.
8 The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart; the commandments of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
Regleman Seyè a se bagay ki dwat. Moun ki swiv yo ap gen kè kontan. Kòmandman li yo klè. Yo louvri je moun.
9 The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.
Se pou nou gen krentif pou Seyè a yon jan ki san repwòch. Epi se tout tan pou nou gen krentif sa a. Jijman Seyè a se verite, yo pa janm nan patipri.
10 They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.
Moun ap kouri dèyè yo pi rèd pase dèyè lò, menm pase lò ki pi bon an. Yo pi dous pase siwo myèl, menm pase siwo k'ap degoute nan gato myèl.
11 By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward.
Mwen menm k'ap sèvi ou la, yo ban m' anpil konesans. Gen gwo rekonpans pou moun k'ap obeyi yo.
12 Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
Ki moun ki konnen tou sa li fè ki mal? Tanpri, Seyè, delivre m' anba sa mwen fè ki mal san m' pa konnen!
13 Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.
Mwen menm k'ap sèvi ou la, pwoteje m' tou anba peche mwen fè ak tout konesans mwen. Pa kite yo pran pye sou mwen. Se lè sa a m'a san repwòch. Se lè sa a m'a delivre anba gwo peche a.
14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
Seyè, se ou ki twou wòch kote m' kache a, se ou ki delivrans mwen, mwen mande ou pou pawòl ki soti nan bouch mwen, ak lide k'ap travay nan tèt mwen fè ou plezi.
