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'.

A Psalm of David. To Jehovah [is] the earth and its fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.

2 Li mete fondasyon tè a nan fon lanmè, li fè l' chita sou gwo larivyè yo.

For He on the seas hath founded it, And on the floods He doth establish it.

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 goeth up into the hill of Jehovah? And who riseth up in His holy place?

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.

The clean of hands, and pure of heart, Who hath not lifted up to vanity his soul, Nor hath sworn to deceit.

5 Seyè a va beni moun konsa. Bondye k'ap delivre l' la va fè l' gras.

He beareth away a blessing from Jehovah, Righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 Se moun konsa ki pou chache Seyè a, ki pou chache parèt devan Bondye Jakòb la.

This [is] a generation of those seeking Him. Seeking Thy face, O Jacob! (Selah)

7 Wete lento pòt yo! Louvri batan pòt yo gran louvri pou wa ki gen pouvwa a ka antre!

Lift up, O gates, your heads, And be lifted up, O doors age-during, And come in doth the king of glory!

8 Kilès ki wa ki gen pouvwa sa a? Se Seyè ki gen fòs ak kouraj la, li vanyan nan batay.

Who [is] this — 'the king of glory?' Jehovah — strong and mighty, Jehovah, the mighty in battle.

9 Wete lento pòt yo! Louvri batan pòt yo gran louvri pou wa ki gen pouvwa a ka antre!

Lift up, O gates, your heads, And be lifted up, O doors age-during, And come in doth the king of glory!

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.

Who [is] He — this 'king of glory?' Jehovah of hosts — He [is] the king of glory! (Selah)
