Psalms 34
1 [A Psalm] of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise [shall] continually [be] in my mouth.
Yon Sòm David lè l te parèt tankou moun fou devan Abimélec ki te pouse l ale, epi konsa, li te pati. Mwen va beni SENYÈ a nan tout tan. Lwanj Li va toujou nan bouch mwen.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear [of it] and be glad.
Nanm mwen va fè glwa li nan SENYÈ a. Enb yo va tande l, e yo va rejwi.
3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
O leve SENYÈ a byen wo avè m. Annou leve non L wo ansanm.
4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Mwen te chache SENYÈ a e Li te reponn mwen, epi te delivre mwen de tout perèz mwen yo.
5 They looked to him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
Yo te gade vè Li, e te vin ranpli ak limyè. Figi yo p ap janm wont.
6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard [him], and saved him out of all his troubles.
Malere (sila) a te rele, e SENYÈ a te tande li, epi te sove li sòti nan tout twoub li yo.
7 The angel of the LORD encampeth around them that fear him, and delivereth them.
Zanj SENYÈ a fè kan antoure (sila) ki krent Li yo, epi li sove yo nan gwo twoub.
8 O taste and see that the LORD [is] good: blessed [is] the man [that] trusteth in him.
O goute e wè ke Bondye bon. A la beni nonm ki kache nan Li a beni!
9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for [there is] no want to them that fear him.
Krent SENYÈ a, O nou menm ki sen Li yo. Pou (sila) ki krent Li yo, anyen pa manke.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good [thing].
Jenn ti lyon yo konn manke manje e soufri grangou, men (sila) ki chache SENYÈ yo, p ap manke okenn bon bagay.
11 Come, ye children, hearken to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
Vini, pitit, koute mwen. Mwen va enstwi ou nan lakrent SENYÈ a.
12 What man [is he that] desireth life, [and] loveth [many] days, that he may see good?
Se ki moun ki dezire lavi, e renmen jou li yo pou li kapab wè sa ki bon?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
Kenbe lang ou apa de sa ki mal, e lèv ou pou pa bay manti.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
Kite sa ki mal la epi fè sa ki bon. Chache lapè e fè efò pou twouve li.
15 The eyes of the LORD [are] upon the righteous, and his ears [are open] to their cry.
Zye a SENYÈ a sou (sila) ki dwat yo. Zòrèy Li koute kri yo.
16 The face of the LORD [is] against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
Figi SENYÈ a kont malfektè yo, pou efase memwa yo sou tè a.
17 [The righteous] cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
Moun dwat kriye. SENYÈ a tande e vin delivre yo tout nan tout twoub yo.
18 The LORD [is] nigh to them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.
SENYÈ a pre (sila) ak kè kase yo, epi sove (sila) ki kraze nan lespri yo.
19 Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
Anpil, se afliksyon a moun dwat la, men SENYÈ a delivre li sòti nan yo tout.
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
Li konsève tout zo li yo. Pa menm youn nan yo va kase.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
Se mechanste ki va touye mechan an. (Sila) ki rayi moun ladwati yo va kondane.
22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
SENYÈ a rachte nanm a sèvitè Li yo. P ap gen nan (sila) ki kache nan Li yo k ap kondane.
