12 They beset me around like bees; They were quenched like the fire of thorns, For in the name of the LORD I destroyed them.
Yo te kouvri m' tankou myèl. Men, yo mouri tankou dife nan pay. Avèk pouvwa Seyè a, mwen kraze yo nèt.
13 Thou didst assail me with violence to bring me down! But the LORD was my support.

Se Seyè a ki tout fòs mwen, se pou li m'ap chante. Se li menm ki delivre m'.
15 The voice of joy and salvation is in the habitations of the righteous: “The right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly;
Tande jan moun k'ap mache dwat devan Bondye yo ap rele anndan lakay yo, sitèlman yo kontan! Yo genyen batay la, yo delivre. Seyè a fè bèl bagay avèk pouvwa li.
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.”
Pouvwa Seyè a se yon pakèt afè. Seyè a fè bèl bagay ak pouvwa li.
17 I shall not die, but live, And declare the deeds of the LORD.
Non, mwen p'ap mouri. M'a viv! M'a rakonte sa Seyè a fè pou mwen.
18 The LORD hath sorely chastened me, But he hath not given me over to death.
Li te pini m' byen pini. Men, li pa t' touye m'.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness, That I may go in, and praise the LORD!
Louvri pòt kay Bondye ki fè m' jistis la pou m' antre, pou m' di Seyè a mèsi.
20 This is the gate of the LORD, Through which the righteous enter.

21 I praise thee that thou hast heard me, And hast been my salvation.
Seyè, m'ap di ou mèsi paske ou te koute m', paske se ou menm ki delivre m'.
22 “The stone which the builders rejected Hath become the chief corner-stone.
Wòch moun ki t'ap bati yo te voye jete a, se li menm ki tounen wòch ki kenbe kay la.
23 This is the LORD'S doing; It is marvellous in our eyes!
Sa se travay Seyè a menm! Se bèl bagay pou nou wè sa!
24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it!
Ala yon bèl jounen Seyè a ban nou! Ann pase jounen an ap fè fèt, ann fè kè nou kontan!
25 Hear, O LORD! and bless us! Hear, O LORD! and send us prosperity!”
Aa! Seyè! Tanpri, delivre nou! Tanpri, fè nou reyisi nan tou sa n'ap fè!
26 “Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD! We bless you from the house of the LORD.”
Benediksyon pou moun ki vini nan non Seyè a! Nou menm ki nan kay Seyè a, n'ap beni nou.
27 “Jehovah is God, he hath shone upon us: Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar!”
