Sòm 101
1 Se yon sòm David. M'ap chante pou yon moun ki gen bon kè. M'ap chante pou yon moun ki pa nan patipri. Se pou ou m'ap chante, Seyè!
David’s. A Melody. Of lovingkindness and of justice, will I sing! Unto thee, O Yahweh, will I touch the strings!
2 M'ap mennen yon lavi san repwòch. Kilè w'a vin jwenn mwen?
I will behave myself wisely in a blameless way, When wilt thou come in unto me? I will walk to and fro in the blamelessness of my heart, —in the midst of my house:
3 M'ap mennen yon lavi san repwòch anndan lakay mwen. Mwen p'ap mete okenn move lide nan tèt mwen. Mwen rayi sa moun ki vire do bay Bondye yo ap fè. Bagay konsa pa ka pran tèt mwen.
I will not set before mine eyes, a vile thing, —The doing of them who fall away, I hate, It shall not cleave unto me;
4 Mwen pa tolere moun ki gen move kè bò kote m'. Mwen pa gen anyen pou m' wè ak moun ki mechan.
A perverse heart, shall depart from me, A maker of mischief, will I not acknowledge;
5 M'ap disparèt tout moun k'ap pale zanmi yo mal an kachèt. Mwen p'ap tolere moun k'ap fè grandizè, moun k'ap pran pòz gwokolèt yo sou moun.
He that uttereth slander in secret against his friend, him, will I root out; One of lofty eyes, and of an ambitious heart, him shall I not be able to endure.
6 M'ap pran swen moun nan peyi a ki kenbe Bondye fèm. M'ap kite yo rete bò kote m'. Moun k'ap mache dwat yo, se yo m'ap pran pou sèvi lakay mwen.
Mine eyes, shall be upon the faithful of the land, That they may dwell with me, —he that walketh in a blameless way, he, shall attend me.
7 Mwen p'ap kite moun k'ap twonpe moun rete lakay mwen. Moun k'ap bay manti p'ap rete kanpe devan mwen.
There shall not dwell in the midst of my house, One who worketh deceit, —he that speaketh falsehoods, shall not be established before mine eyes;
8 Chak maten m'ap fini avèk tout mechan ki nan peyi a. Konsa, m'ap mete tout moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo deyò nan lavil Seyè a.
Morning by morning, will I uproot, All the lawless ones of the land, That I may cut off, out of the city of Yahweh—All the workers of iniquity.
