< Psalms 138 >
1 A Psalme of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: euen before the gods will I praise thee.
Se yon sòm David. Seyè, m'ap di ou mèsi ak tout kè m'. La, devan lòt bondye yo, m'ap chante, m'ap jwe gita pou ou!
2 I will worship toward thine holy Temple and praise thy Name, because of thy louing kindenesse and for thy trueth: for thou hast magnified thy Name aboue all things by thy word.
M'ap mete ajenou devan kay ki apa pou ou a, m'ap fè lwanj ou, paske ou gen bon kè, paske ou toujou kenbe pawòl ou, paske ou fè sa ou te pwomèt la. Se tout moun k'ap nonmen non ou koulye a.
3 When I called, then thou heardest me, and hast encreased strength in my soule.
Lè m' te rele ou, ou te reponn mwen, ou te ban m' plis kouraj.
4 All the Kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord: for they haue heard the wordes of thy mouth.
Tout moun ki sou latè va fè lwanj ou, Seyè, lè y'a vin konnen pawòl ki soti nan bouch ou.
5 And they shall sing of the wayes of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord is great.
Y'a chante pou sa Seyè a te fè, y'a di: Ala gwo pouvwa Seyè a genyen!
6 For the Lord is high: yet he beholdeth the lowly, but the proude he knoweth afarre off.
Wi, Seyè a anwo nan syèl la. Men, li wè moun ki soumèt devan li. Li rete byen lwen, li rekonèt moun k'ap fè grandizè yo.
7 Though I walke in the middes of trouble, yet wilt thou reuiue me: thou wilt stretch foorth thine hand vpon the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall saue me.
Menm lè mwen nan gwo tèt chaje, ou pa kite m' mouri. Ou leve men ou pou rete lènmi m' yo ki ankòlè. Ou sove m' avèk fòs ponyèt ou.
8 The Lord will performe his worke toward me: O Lord, thy mercie endureth for euer: forsake not the workes of thine handes.
W'a fin fè sa ou te konmanse fè pou mwen an. Seyè, ou p'ap janm sispann renmen nou. Pa vire do ou kite travay ou konmanse fè a!
