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!

A Psalm of David. Kindness and judgment I sing, To Thee, O Jehovah, I sing praise.

2 M'ap mennen yon lavi san repwòch. Kilè w'a vin jwenn mwen?

I act wisely in a perfect way, When dost Thou come in unto me? I walk habitually in the integrity 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 set not before mine eyes a worthless thing, The work of those turning aside I have hated, It adhereth not to 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 turneth aside from me, Wickedness I know not.

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.

Whoso slandereth in secret his neighbour, Him I cut off, The high of eyes and proud of heart, him I endure not.

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 are on the faithful of the land, To dwell with me, Whoso is walking in a perfect way, he serveth 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.

He dwelleth not in my house who is working deceit, Whoso is speaking lies Is not 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.

At morning I cut off all the wicked of the land, To cut off from the city of Jehovah All the workers of iniquity!
