< Sòm 123 >
1 Se yon chante pou yo chante lè y'ap moute lavil Jerizalèm. Ou menm ki chita sou fotèy ou nan syèl la ap gouvènen, se bò kote ou mwen leve je mwen.
song [the] step to(wards) you to lift: look [obj] eye my [the] to dwell in/on/with heaven
2 Menm jan domestik la ap gade sou mèt li, menm jan sèvant la ap gade sou metrès li, se konsa m'ap gade sou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jouk l'a gen pitye pou nou.
behold like/as eye servant/slave to(wards) hand lord their like/as eye maidservant to(wards) hand lady her so eye our to(wards) LORD God our till which/that be gracious us
3 Gen pitye pou nou, Seyè, gen pitye pou nou, paske nou sibi kont nou anba moun k'ap meprize nou yo.
be gracious us LORD be gracious us for many to satisfy contempt
4 Moun ki alèz yo pase nou nan kont betiz. Moun k'ap gonfle lestonmak yo sou moun ap foule nou anba pye yo.
many to satisfy to/for her soul our [the] derision [the] secure [the] contempt (to/for proud to oppress *Q(K)*)
