Sòm 43

1 Fè m' jistis, Bondye. Defann kòz mwen kont moun sa yo ki pa konnen ou. Delivre m' anba moun sa yo k'ap bay manti, k'ap fè mechanste.

to judge me God and to contend [emph?] strife my from nation not pious from man deceit and injustice to escape me

2 Se ou ki Bondye mwen, se ou ki tout pwoteksyon mwen. Poukisa ou lage m' konsa? Poukisa pou m'ap viv ak tout lapenn sa a nan kè m', lè lènmi m' yo ap kraze m' anba pye yo?

for you(m. s.) God security my to/for what? to reject me to/for what? be dark to go: went in/on/with oppression enemy

3 Voye limyè ou, moutre m' verite ou la. Fè yo fè m' wè chemen pou m' pran an. Fè yo mennen m' sou mòn ki apa pou ou a, nan kay kote ou rete a.

to send: depart light your and truth: true your they(masc.) to lead me to come (in): bring me to(wards) mountain: mount holiness your and to(wards) tabernacle your

4 Lè sa a, m'a tounen vin bò lotèl Bondye a, Bondye ki fè kè m' kontan an, Bondye k'ap fè m' fè fèt la. M'a jwe enstriman mizik pou Bondye, pou Bondye pa m' lan.

and to come (in): come to(wards) altar God to(wards) God joy rejoicing my and to give thanks you in/on/with lyre God God my

5 Wi, men poukisa m' kagou konsa? Poukisa m'ap plenn konsa nan kè m'? M'ap mete espwa mwen nan Bondye, paske mwen gen pou m' fè lwanj li ankò. Se li k'ap delivre m', se li ki Bondye mwen.

what? to bow soul my and what? to roar upon me to wait: hope to/for God for still to give thanks him salvation face of my and God my
