< Psalms 97 >
1 For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.
SENYÈ a renye, kite latè rejwi! Kite tout lil yo fè kè kontan!
2 Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgement are the establishment of his throne.
Nwaj ak fènwa pwofon ap antoure Li. Ladwati avèk jistis se fondasyon twòn Li an.
3 Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.
Se dife ki ale devan L pou brile tout advèsè Li yo toupatou.
4 His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
Loray Li yo klere tout mond lan. Latè wè e li tranble.
5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Mòn yo fonn tankou lasi devan prezans SENYÈ a, devan prezans SENYÈ tout latè a.
6 The heavens have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.
Syèl yo deklare ladwati Li e tout pèp yo te wè glwa Li.
7 Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all you his angels.
Kite tout (sila) ki sèvi limaj taye yo vin wont, ki vin ògeye sou zafè zidòl yo. Adore Li, tout dye yo.
8 Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of your judgements, O Lord.
Sion te tande sa e te rejwi. Fi a Sion yo te rejwi akoz jijman Ou, O SENYÈ.
9 For you are Lord most high over all the earth; you are greatly exalted above all gods.
Paske Ou menm se SENYÈ Pi Wo a sou tout latè. Ou leve pi wo anpil pase tout dye yo.
10 You that love the Lord, hate evil; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.
Nou menm ki renmen SENYÈ a, rayi mal la! Li pwoteje nanm a fidèl Li yo. Li delivre yo nan men a mechan yo.
11 Light is sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Se limyè ki simen kon semans pou moun ladwati yo, ak kè kontan pou (sila) ak kè ki dwat yo.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.
Fè kè kontan nan SENYÈ a, nou menm ki moun dwat yo e bay remèsiman a non sen Li an.
