Sòm 24
1 Se yon sòm David. Se pou Seyè a tè a ye ansanm ak tou sa ki sou li. Se pou Seyè a lemonn antye ansanm ak tou sa k'ap viv ladan l'.
The earth and everything in it belongs to Yahweh; all the people in the world belong to him, too,
2 Li mete fondasyon tè a nan fon lanmè, li fè l' chita sou gwo larivyè yo.
because he caused the ground to be above the water, above the water that was deep below the surface of the earth.
3 Ki moun ki gen dwa moute sou mòn ki pou Seyè a? Ki moun li kite antre nan kay ki apa pou li a?
Who will be allowed to go up on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem], in order to stand [and worship] in Yahweh’s holy temple?
4 Se moun ki pa fè anyen ki mal, moun ki pa gen move lide nan tèt yo. Se moun ki pa nan bay manti, moun ki pa nan fè sèman pou twonpe moun.
[Only] those whose actions [MTY] and thoughts are pure, who have not worshiped idols, and who do not tell lies when they have solemnly promised [to tell the truth].
5 Seyè a va beni moun konsa. Bondye k'ap delivre l' la va fè l' gras.
(They will be blessed by Yahweh/Yahweh will bless them). When God [judges them], he, who has saved them, will say that they (have done nothing wrong/are without fault).
6 Se moun konsa ki pou chache Seyè a, ki pou chache parèt devan Bondye Jakòb la.
They are the ones who approach God, they are the ones who may worship God, the one [we] Israelis worship.
7 Wete lento pòt yo! Louvri batan pòt yo gran louvri pou wa ki gen pouvwa a ka antre!
Open up [APO] the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
8 Kilès ki wa ki gen pouvwa sa a? Se Seyè ki gen fòs ak kouraj la, li vanyan nan batay.
[Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh, the one who is very strong [DOU]; He is Yahweh, who conquers [all his enemies] in battles!
9 Wete lento pòt yo! Louvri batan pòt yo gran louvri pou wa ki gen pouvwa a ka antre!
Open up the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
10 Kilès ki wa ki gen pouvwa sa a? Se Seyè ki chèf lame zanj yo, se li menm ki wa ki gen pouvwa a.
[Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh almighty; he is our glorious king!
