< Psalms 119 >
1 (Yahweh is pleased with/Happy are) those about whom no one can say truthfully that they have done things that are wrong, those who always obey the laws of Yahweh.
ALÈPH. A la beni se (sila) ak chemen ki san fot yo, ki mache nan lalwa SENYÈ a.
2 Yahweh is pleased with those who (obey his requirements/do what he has instructed them to do), those who request him with their entire inner beings to help them [to do that].
A la beni se (sila) ki kenbe temwayaj Li yo, Ki chache Li ak tout kè yo.
3 They do not do things that are wrong; they behave like Yahweh wants them to.
Ki pa fè okenn inikite. Yo mache nan chemen Li yo.
4 Yahweh, you have given [us] (your principles of behavior/all the things that you have declared that we should do), [and you told us] to obey them carefully.
Ou te òdone règleman Ou yo, pou nou ta kenbe yo ak dilijans.
5 I desire that I will faithfully/always obey all (your statutes/that you have said that [we] should do).
O ke chemen mwen yo kapab vin etabli pou kenbe règleman Ou yo!
6 If I continually (heed/pay attention to) all (your commands/that you have commanded), I will not be disgraced/ashamed.
Konsa, mwen p ap vin desi lè m gade kòmandman Ou yo.
7 When I learn [all of] (your regulations/the rules that you have given [to us)], I will praise you with a pure inner being [IDM].
Mwen va bay Ou remèsiman avèk yon kè ki dwat, lè mwen aprann jijman dwat Ou yo.
8 I will obey all (your statutes/that you have decreed that [we] should do); do not desert/abandon me!
Mwen va kenbe règleman Ou yo. Pa abandone m nèt! BETH
9 [I know] [RHQ] how a youth can (keep his life pure/avoid sinning); it is by obeying what you have told us to do.
Kijan yon jennonm kapab kenbe wout li yo san fot? Nan kenbe li selon pawòl Ou.
10 I try to serve you with my entire inner being; do not allow me to (wander away from obeying/disobey) (your commands/what you have commanded).
Ak tout kè mwen, mwen te chache Ou. Pa kite mwen vin egare e kite lòd Ou yo.
11 I have (memorized/stored in my mind) [many of] (your words/what you have promised) in order that I will not sin against you.
Pawòl Ou yo, mwen te kenbe yo nan kè m, pou m pa t peche kont Ou.
12 Yahweh, I praise you; teach me (your statutes/what you have declared).
Beni se Ou menm SENYÈ a. Enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
13 I [MTY] tell others (the regulations/the rules that you have given [to us)].
Avèk lèv mwen, mwen te pale selon tout òdonans bouch Ou yo.
14 I like to obey (your requirements/what you have instructed [us to do)]; I enjoy that more than being very rich.
Mwen te rejwi nan chemen temwayaj Ou yo, konsi se nan tout richès yo.
15 I will (study/think about) (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), and I will pay attention to what you have showed [me].
Mwen va reflechi sou règleman Ou yo, e okipe chemen Ou yo.
16 I will be happy [to obey] (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do), and I will not forget your words.
Mwen va rejwi nan lòd Ou yo. Mwen p ap bliye pawòl Ou. GIMEL
17 Do good things for me, who serve you, in order that I may continue to live and obey (your words/what you have told us to do) during all my life.
Aji ak gras avèk sèvitè Ou a, pou m kab viv e kenbe pawòl Ou.
18 Open my mind in order that I may know the wonderful things that [are written] in your laws.
Ouvri zye m pou m kab wè bèl bagay nan lalwa Ou yo.
19 I am living [here] on the earth for only a short time; (do not prevent me from [understanding]/help me to understand) [LIT] (your commands/what you have commanded).
Mwen se yon etranje sou latè. Pa kache kòmandman Ou yo de mwen.
20 In my inner being I strongly desire to know (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us) all the time.
Nanm mwen kraze ak anvi pou òdonans Ou yo tout tan.
21 You rebuke those who are proud; cursed are those who disobey (your commands/what you have commanded).
Ou repwoche ògeye yo, moun madichonnen yo, k ap egare kite kòmandman Ou yo.
22 Do not allow them to continue to insult and scorn me; [I request this] because I have obeyed what you have instructed us to do.
Retire repwòch ak mepri a sou mwen, paske mwen obsève temwayaj Ou yo.
23 Rulers gather together and plan ways to harm me, but I will (meditate on/study) (your statutes/what you have decreed).
Malgre prens yo vin chita pou pale kont mwen, Sèvitè Ou va reflechi tout tan sou règleman Ou yo.
24 I am delighted with (your requirements/what you have instructed [us to do)]; [it is as though] they are my advisors.
Anplis, temwayaj Ou yo se plezi mwen ak konseye mwen yo. DALETH
25 [I think that] I will soon die [IDM]; revive/heal me, as you have told me that you would.
Nanm mwen kole rèd nan pousyè a. Fè m leve selon pawòl Ou.
26 When I told you about my behavior, you answered me; teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Mwen te pale sou chemen mwen yo, e Ou te reponn mwen. Enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
27 Help me to understand (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), and [then] I will (meditate on/think about) the wonderful things that you [have done].
Fè m konprann chemen òdonans Ou yo, pou m kab reflechi tout tan sou mèvèy Ou yo.
28 I am very sad/sorrowful [IDM], with the result that I have no strength; enable me to be strong [again], like you promised me that you would do.
Nanm mwen ap kriye akoz doulè. Ban m fòs selon pawòl Ou a.
29 Prevent me from doing what is wrong, and be kind to me by teaching me your laws.
Retire sou mwen fo chemen an e ban mwen gras nan lalwa Ou a.
30 I have decided that I will faithfully/always [obey you]; I have (paid attention to/heeded) (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us).
Mwen te chwazi chemen fidèl Ou a. Mwen te mete òdonans Ou yo devan m.
31 Yahweh, I try to carefully hold fast to what you have instructed [us to do]; do not [abandon me, with the result that] I would become disgraced.
Mwen kole rèd de temwayaj Ou yo. O SENYÈ, pa fè m desi.
32 I will eagerly obey [IDM] (your commands/what you have commanded), because you have enabled me to understand more [what you want me to do].
Mwen va kouri nan vwa kòmandman Ou yo, paske Ou va fè kè m vin grandi. HE
33 Yahweh, teach me the meaning of (your statutes/the things that you have decreed that we should do), and [then] I will obey them, every one of them.
Enstwi mwen, O SENYÈ, nan chemen règleman Ou yo e mwen va obsève li jiska lafen.
34 Help me to understand your laws in order that I may obey them with all my inner being.
Ban mwen bon konprann, pou m kab obsève lalwa Ou. Konsa, mwen va kenbe li ak tout kè m.
35 I am happy with (your commands/what you have commanded), so (lead me along the paths/enable me to walk on the road) that you [have chosen for me].
Fè m mache nan pa kòmandman Ou yo, paske sa fè kè m kontan.
36 Cause me to want to obey your rules and not to want to become rich.
Enkline kè m a temwayaj Ou yo, e pa nan ranmase richès malonèt.
37 Do not allow me to look at things that are worthless, and allow me to continue to live, like you promised that you would do.
Vire zye m pou yo pa gade vanite e fè m reprann mwen nan chemen Ou yo.
38 [Because] I serve you, do what you promised to do for me, which is what you also promise to do for [all] those who revere you.
Etabli pawòl Ou a Sèvitè Ou a, kon (sila) ki gen lakrent Ou.
39 [People] insult me; protect me from those insults, [because] I hate them. The (regulations/rules that you have given [to us]) are [very] good!
Detounen lwen m repwòch Ou ke mwen krent anpil, paske òdonans Ou yo bon.
40 I very much desire [to obey] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do); because you are righteous, allow me to continue to live (OR, be good to me).
Gade byen, mwen gen anpil anvi pou òdonans Ou yo! Fè m remonte nan ladwati Ou. VAV
41 Yahweh, show me that you faithfully love me, and rescue/save me, like you have said/promised that you would.
Anplis, ke lanmou dous Ou a kapab rive kote mwen, O SENYÈ, sali Ou a selon pawòl Ou.
42 After you do that, I will be able to reply to those who insult me, because I trust in (your word/what you have promised that you would do).
Pou m kab genyen yon repons pou (sila) ki repwoche m nan, paske mwen mete konfyans mwen nan pawòl Ou.
43 Always enable me to [LIT] speak your truth, because I have confidence in (your regulations/the rules that you have given us).
Pa retire pawòl verite a pou l ta kite bouch mwen nèt, Paske se òdonans Ou yo ke m ap tann.
44 I will always obey your laws, forever.
Konsa, mwen va kenbe lalwa Ou tout tan nèt, pou tout tan e pou tout tan.
45 I will be free [from (affliction/my enemies’ attacks)], because I have tried [to obey] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Epi mwen va mache nan libète, paske se òdonans Ou ke m chache.
46 I will tell to kings (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do); and [because I did not abandon you], those kings will not cause me to be ashamed.
Anplis, mwen va pale sou temwayaj Ou yo devan wa yo, e mwen p ap desi.
47 I am delighted to [obey] (your commands/what you have commanded), and I love them.
Mwen va pran plezi nan kòmandman Ou yo, ke mwen tèlman renmen.
48 I respect/revere [IDM] (your commands/what you have commanded), and I love them, and I will (meditate on/think about) (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Mwen va lonje men m vè kòmandman Ou yo ke m tèlman renmen. Mwen va reflechi tout tan sou règleman Ou yo. ZAYIN
49 Do not forget what you said/promised to do for me, who serve you, [because] what you have said has caused me to confidently expect [good things from you].
Sonje pawòl a sèvitè Ou a. Se nan li Ou te fè m gen espwa a.
50 When I have been suffering, you comforted me; you did what you promised me, and that [PRS] revived me.
Se sa ki ban m rekonfò nan mizè mwen an, paske se pawòl Ou ki fè m rekouvri fòs.
51 Proud people are always making fun of me, but I do not (turn away from/stop) [obeying] your laws.
Moun awogan yo meprize m nèt, men mwen pa vire kite lalwa Ou.
52 Yahweh, when I think about (your regulations/the rules) that you gave to us long ago, I am comforted/encouraged.
Mwen te sonje òdonans Ou yo depi nan tan ansyen, O SENYÈ, e yo rekonfòte mwen.
53 When [I see that] wicked people have disregarded your laws, I become very angry.
Chalè endiyasyon gen tan pran m akoz mechan yo, ki abandone lalwa Ou.
54 While I have been living here for a short time on the earth, I have written songs about (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Règleman Ou yo se chanson mwen nan kay kote m demere.
55 Yahweh, during the night I think about you [MTY], and [so] I obey your laws.
O SENYÈ, Mwen sonje non Ou nan lannwit e mwen kenbe lalwa Ou.
56 What I have always done is to obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Se sa ki chemen m, mwen kenbe tout òdonans Ou yo. HETH
57 Yahweh, you are the one whom I have chosen, and I promise to (obey your words/do what you have told us to do).
Se SENYÈ a ki pòsyon mwen. Mwen te fè pwomès pou kenbe pawòl Ou yo.
58 With all my inner being I plead with you to be good to me; be kind to me, like you promised/said that you would do.
Mwen te chache favè Ou ak tout kè m. Fè m gras selon pawòl Ou.
59 I have thought about my behavior, and I [have decided to] return to [obeying] (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).
Mwen te konsidere chemen mwen yo, e te vire pye m vè temwayaj Ou yo.
60 I hurry to obey (your commands/what you have commanded); I do not delay [at all].
Mwen te fè vit e mwen pa t fè reta pou obeyi kòmandman Ou yo.
61 Wicked people have [tried to] seize me, [like a hunter tries to catch an animal] with a net [MET], but I do not forget your laws.
Kòd a mechan yo te antoure m, men mwen pa t bliye lalwa Ou.
62 In the middle of the night I wake up, and I praise you for (your commands/the rules that you have given us to do); they are fair/just.
A minwi, mwen va leve bay Ou remèsiman, akoz òdonans dwat Ou yo.
63 I am a friend of all those who revere you, those who obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Mwen se zanmi parèy a tout (sila) ki gen lakrent Ou yo ak (sila) ki swiv règleman Ou yo.
64 Yahweh, you faithfully/always love [people] all over the earth; teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Latè ranpli ak lanmou dous Ou a, O SENYÈ. Enstwi m règleman Ou yo. TETH
65 Yahweh, you have done good things for me, like you promised/said that you would do.
Ou te aji ak sèvitè Ou a, O SENYÈ, selon pawòl Ou.
66 Teach me to think carefully before I decide what to do, and [teach me other things that I need to] know, because I believe [that it is good for us to obey] (your commands/what you have commanded).
Enstwi mwen pou m sèvi bon jijman ak konesans, Paske mwen kwè nan kòmandman Ou yo.
67 Before you afflicted/punished me, I did things that were wrong, but now I obey (your words/what you have told us to do).
Avan mwen te aflije, mwen te mache nan wout egare, men koulye a, mwen swiv pawòl Ou.
68 You are [very] good, and what you do is good; teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Ou bon e Ou fè sa ki bon. Enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
69 Proud people have told many lies about me, but [the truth is that] with all my inner being I obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Awogan yo te fòje yon manti kont mwen. Avèk tout kè m, mwen va obsève tout òdonans Ou yo.
70 Those proud people (are stupid/do not understand your laws) [IDM], but [as for me], I am delighted with your laws.
Kè yo rèd, kouvri ak grès, men mwen pran plezi nan lalwa Ou.
71 It was good for me that [you] afflicted/punished me, because the result was that I learned (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Li bon pou mwen ke m te aflije, pou m te kab aprann règleman Ou yo.
72 The laws that you [MTY] gave/told [to us] are [worth] more to me than gold, more than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.
Lalwa bouch Ou pi bon pou mwen, pase pyès lò ak ajan pa milye. YODH
73 You created me and formed my body (OR, kept me safe); help me to be wise in order that I may learn (your commands/what you have commanded).
Men Ou te fè m e te fòme mwen. Ban m bon konprann pou m kab aprann kòmandman Ou yo.
74 Those who have an awesome respect for you will see [what you have done for] me, and they will rejoice, because [they will see that] I have trusted in (your words/what you told us).
Ke (sila) ki krent Ou yo kapab wè m e fè kè kontan. Paske mwen mete espwa m pawòl Ou yo.
75 Yahweh, I know that (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us) are right/fair and that you have afflicted/punished me because you faithfully do [what you have promised].

Ke kè m kapab san tò nan règleman Ou yo, pou m pa vin desi. KAPH
81 I am very tired/exhausted while I wait for you to save [me from my enemies]; [but] I confidently expect that you will tell [me what you will do].
Nanm mwen fè gwo anvi pou sali Ou. Se pawòl Ou m ap tann.
82 My eyes are tired from waiting a long time for you to do what you promised/said that you would do, and I ask, “When will you help/encourage me?”
Zye m vin ba ak anvi pawòl Ou, pandan m ap di: “Kilè W ap vin konsole mwen?”
83 I have become [as useless as] [MET] a wineskin that is [shriveled from hanging a long time] in the smoke [inside a house], but I have not forgotten (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Sepandan, mwen vin tankou yon vye kwi diven k ap pran lafimen, Mwen pa bliye règleman Ou yo.
84 How long must I wait? When will you punish those who (persecute/cause trouble for) me?
Konbyen jou sèvitè Ou gen? Se kilè Ou va pase jijman sou (sila) ki pèsekite mwen yo?
85 [It is as though] proud people have dug deep pits for me [to fall into], people who do not obey your laws.
Awogan yo fin fouye fòs yo pou mwen, (Sila) ki pa an akò ak lalwa Ou yo.
86 All (your commands are/what you have commanded is) trustworthy; [but] people are (persecuting/causing trouble for) me by telling lies [about me, so please] help me!
Tout kòmandman Ou yo fidèl. Se ak manti yo te pèsekite mwen. Fè m sekou!
87 Those people have almost killed me, but I have not stopped [obeying] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Yo te prèske fin detwi m sou latè, Men pou mwen, mwen pa t kite òdonans Ou yo.
88 Because you faithfully love [me], allow me [to continue] to live in order that I may [continue to] obey (your rules/what you have instructed [us to do]).
Fè m reprann mwen selon lanmou dous Ou a, Pou m kab kenbe temwayaj a bouch Ou yo. LAMEDH
89 Yahweh, your words will last forever; they will last as long as heaven lasts.
Jis pou tout tan, O SENYÈ, pawòl Ou fin etabli nan syèl la.
90 You will faithfully [continue doing] ([for people who are not yet born/in every generation]) what you have (promised/said that you would do); you have put the earth in its place, and it remains firmly [there].
Fidelite Ou pandan tout jenerasyon yo. Ou te etabli tè a e li vin kanpe nèt.
91 To this day, [all things on the earth] remain because you decided that they should remain; everything [on the earth] serves you.
Yo kanpe nan jou sa a selon lòd Ou. Paske tout bagay se sèvitè Ou.
92 If I had not been delighted [in obeying] your laws, I would have died because of what I was suffering.
Si lalwa Ou pa t plezi mwen, mwen t ap gen tan peri nan mizè mwen an.
93 I will never forget (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), because as a result of [my obeying them] you have enabled me to [continue to] live.
Mwen p ap janm bliye òdonans Ou yo, Paske se avèk yo menm ke Ou fè m reprann fòs.
94 I belong to you; save/rescue me [from my enemies], because I have tried to obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Se pa W mwen ye. Fè m sekou! Paske mwen te chache òdonans Ou yo.
95 Wicked [men] are waiting to kill me, but I [will] think about what you have instructed [us to do].
Mechan yo ap tann mwen pou detwi m. Se ak dilijans ke mwen konsidere temwayaj Ou yo.
96 I have learned that there is a limit/end for everything, but what you command (has no limits/never ends).
Mwen gen tan fin wè lizyè a tout pèfèksyon, men kòmandman Ou an vrèman vast. MEM
97 I love your laws very much. I (meditate on/think about) them all during the day.
O! A la mwen renmen lalwa Ou a! Se sou li ke m reflechi tout lajounen.
98 Because I know (your commands/what you have commanded), and because I think about them all the time, I have become wiser than my enemies.
Kòmandman Ou yo fè m pi saj pase ènmi m yo, Paske yo toujou pou mwen.
99 I understand more than my teachers do, because I (meditate on/think about) (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).
Mwen vin gen plis konprann pase tout pwofesè mwen yo, Paske temwayaj Ou yo se meditasyon mwen.
100 I understand more than [many] old people do, because I obey (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do).
Mwen gen konprann plis pase granmoun yo, akoz mwen te swiv òdonans Ou yo.
101 I have avoided all evil behavior in order that I may obey (your words/what you have told us to do).
Mwen te anpeche pye m antre nan tout wout ki gen mechanste, Pou m te kab kenbe pawòl Ou.
102 I have not (turned away from/quit) [obeying] (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us), because you have taught me [while I have studied them].
Mwen pa t vire kite règleman Ou yo, paske se Ou menm ki te enstwi m.
103 [When I read] your words, they are like [MET] sweet things that I taste/eat, [yes], they are even sweeter than honey.
A la pawòl Ou yo dous nan gou mwen! Wi, pi dous pase siwo myèl nan bouch mwen!
104 Because [I have learned] (your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do), I am able to understand [many things]; therefore, I hate all evil things [that some people do].
Soti nan òdonans Ou yo, mwen jwenn bon konprann. Pou sa, mwen rayi tout fo chemen yo. NUN
105 Your words are [like] [MET] a lamp to guide me; they are [like] a light [MET] to show me the path [that I should walk on].
Pawòl Ou se yon lanp pou pye m, e yon limyè nan pa pye mwen.
106 I have solemnly promised, and I am solemnly promising it again, that I will [always] obey your (regulations/rules that you have given to us), and they are [all] fair/just.
Mwen te sèmante e mwen va konfime sa, Ke m va kenbe òdonans Ou yo.
107 Yahweh, I am suffering very much; cause me to be strong/healthy [again], as you have promised to do.
Mwen vin aflije anpil, anpil; fè m reprann fòs mwen, O SENYÈ, selon pawòl Ou.
108 Yahweh, when I thank you while I pray, it is [like] [MET] a sacrifice to you; [please] accept it, and teach me your (regulations/rules that you have given to us).
O aksepte ofrann bòn volonte a bouch mwen an, O SENYÈ, enstwi mwen nan òdonans Ou yo.
109 [My enemies are] often trying to kill me [IDM], but I do not forget your laws.
Lavi m tout tan nan men m, malgre, mwen pa bliye lalwa Ou a.
110 Wicked [people] have tried to seize me [like a hunter tries to catch an animal] with a trap [MET], but I have not disobeyed (your principles of behavior/what you declared that we should do).
Mechan yo te poze yon pèlen pou mwen, malgre, mwen pa t varye soti nan òdonans Ou yo.
111 (Your requirements/What you have instructed us to do) are my possession forever; because of them [PRS], I am joyful.
Mwen te eritye temwayaj Ou yo pou tout tan, paske se yo ki lajwa kè m.
112 I (have decided/am determined) [IDM] to obey (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do) until the day that I die [MTY].
Mwen te enkline kè m pou fè règleman Ou yo jis pou tout tan, jiska lafen. SAMEKH
113 I hate people who are [only] partly committed to you, but I love your laws.
Mwen rayi moun ki gen de fas, men mwen renmen lalwa Ou a.
114 You are [like] a place where I can hide [from my enemies], and you are [like] a shield [MET] [behind which I am protected from them], and I trust in your promises.
Ou se kote a pou m kache a ak boukliye mwen, Mwen ap mete espwa m nan pawòl Ou.
115 You evil people, stay away from me in order than I may obey (my God’s commands/what my God has commanded)!
Kite mwen, malfektè, pou m kab swiv kòmandman a Bondye mwen yo.
116 Enable me to be strong, as you promised/said that you would do, in order that I may [continue to] live. I am confidently expecting [that you will restore me]; (do not disappoint me/do not allow me to be disappointed).
Soutni mwen selon pawòl Ou, pou m kab viv. Pa kite mwen vin wont nan espwa mwen.
117 Hold me up, in order that I will be safe and always (pay attention to/heed) (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Kenbe mwen pou m kab jwenn sekou, pou m gen konsiderasyon pou règleman Ou yo tout tan.
118 You reject all those who disobey (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do); but what they deceitfully plan to do will be (useless/in vain).
Ou te rejte tout (sila) ki te egare kite règleman Ou yo, paske sediksyon yo a pa reyisi.
119 You get rid of all the wicked [people] on the earth like [SIM] [people throw away] trash; therefore I love what you have instructed us to do.
Ou te fè tout mechan sou latè yo disparèt tankou kim initil. Pou sa, mwen renmen temwayaj Ou yo.
120 I [SYN] tremble because I am afraid of you; I am afraid [because you punish those who do not obey] (your regulations/the rules that you have given to us).
Chè m ap tranble akoz lakrent Ou menm, e mwen gen laperèz jijman Ou yo. AYIN
121 [But] I have done what is right and fair/just; [so] do not allow people to oppress/mistreat me.
Mwen te fè sa ki jis e dwat. Pa kite mwen nan men opresè mwen yo.
122 Promise me that you will do good things for me and do not allow proud [people] to oppress me.
Aji kon soutyèn pou bonte a sèvitè Ou a. Pa kite awogan yo oprime mwen.
123 My eyes are tired from waiting a long time for you to rescue [me], for you to save [me] like you promised/said that you would.
Zye m bese ak anvi wè delivrans Ou, avèk pawòl ladwati Ou.
124 Do something for me to show that you faithfully love [me], and teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do).
Aji avèk sèvitè Ou selon lanmou dous Ou a e enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
125 I am one who serves you; enable me to understand [what you want me to know] in order that I will know (your requirements/what you have instructed us to do).
Mwen se sèvitè Ou. Fè m konprann pou m konnen temwayaj Ou yo.

135 Be kind to me and teach me (your statutes/what you have decreed that [we] should do).
Fè figi Ou klere sou sèvitè Ou a, e enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
136 I cry very much because [many] people do not obey your laws.
Se rivyè dlo menm ki koule sòti nan zye m, akoz yo menm ki pa kenbe lalwa Ou a. TZADHE

Ladwati Ou se yon dwati ki jis pou tout tan e lalwa Ou se verite.

Temwayaj Ou yo dwat jis pou tout tan. Ban mwen bon konprann pou m kab viv. QOPH

150 Those evil people who oppress/persecute me are coming closer to me; they do not pay any attention to your laws.
(Sila) ki swiv mechanste yo apwoche. Yo lwen lalwa Ou a.
151 But Yahweh, you are near to me, and [I know that] (your commands/what you command) will never be changed.
Ou toupre, O SENYÈ e tout kòmandman Ou yo se verite.
152 Long ago I found out about (your requirements/all the things that you have instructed us to do), and [I know that] you intended them to last forever.
Depi nan tan ansyen yo, mwen te konnen de temwayaj Ou yo, ke Ou te etabli yo jis pou tout tan yo. RESH
