Sòm 45
1 Pou chèf sanba yo. Se pou yo chante sou menm lè ak chante ki di: Bèl ti flè savann blan yo. Se yon chante pitit Kore yo. Se yon chan damou. Mwen gen anpil bèl pawòl nan bouch mwen. Mwen pral chante yon chante pou wa a, mwen tankou yon moun ki konn konpoze bèl chante.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lilies.” A Maskil of the sons of Korah. A love song. My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses to the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
2 Pa gen pi bèl gason pase ou sou tout latè. Ou gen bèl pawòl dous nan bouch ou. Se poutèt sa, Bondye ap toujou beni ou.
You are the most handsome of men; grace has anointed your lips, since God has blessed you forever.
3 Ou menm vanyan gason, pase nepe ou nan ren ou, pou moun ka wè jan ou gen pouvwa, pou yo ka gen respè pou ou.
Strap your sword at your side, O mighty warrior; appear in your majesty and splendor.
4 Moute sou cha ou, al goumen, pou pran defans moun ki kenbe pawòl yo, moun ki gen bon kè, moun ki mache dwat devan ou. Kouraj ou ap fè ou genyen batay la.
In your splendor ride forth in victory on behalf of truth and humility and justice; may your right hand show your awesome deeds.
5 Flèch ou yo pwenti. Moun lòt nasyon yo ap tonbe nan pye ou. Lènmi wa a pèdi tout kouraj yo.
Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s foes; the nations fall beneath your feet.
6 Gouvènman ou lan la pou tout tan tout tan. W'ap gouvènen san patipri tankou yon wa nan peyi ou la.
Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom.
7 Ou renmen tou sa ki byen, ou rayi tou sa ki mal. Se poutèt sa, Bondye ki Bondye ou l'a chwazi ou. Li fè kè ou kontan nèt ale: Li fè pou ou bagay li pa fè pou lòt zanmi ou yo.
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you above your companions with the oil of joy.
8 Tout rad ou santi bon ak odè flè jasmen, womaren ak sitwonèl. Nan palè ou ki kouvri ak livwa, y'ap fè mizik pou fè kè ou kontan.
All your garments are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia; from palaces of ivory the harps make you glad.
9 Pami medam k'ap sèvi lakay ou yo anpil ladan yo se pitit fi wa yo ye. Sou bò dwat ou, larenn lan kanpe byen bèl. Li gen sou li bijou fèt an lò ki soti peyi Ofi.
The daughters of kings are among your honored women; the queen stands at your right hand, adorned with the gold of Ophir.
10 Koute, mafi! Gade byen! Tande sa m'ap di ou: -Ou mèt bliye pèp kote ou soti a. Ou mèt bliye moun kay papa ou yo.
Listen, O daughter! Consider and incline your ear: Forget your people and your father’s house,
11 Wa a pa manke renmen ou, paske ou bèl. Se li ki mèt ou, se pou ou obeyi l'.
and the king will desire your beauty; bow to him, for he is your lord.
12 Moun peyi Tir ap pote anpil kado ba ou. Moun rich yo ap vin flate ou.
The Daughter of Tyre will come with a gift; men of wealth will seek your favor.
13 Pitit fi wa a nan palè a. Ala bèl li bèl! Twal rad ki sou li a fèt ak fil lò.
All glorious is the princess in her chamber; her gown is embroidered with gold.
14 Yo mennen l' bò kote wa a, avèk bèl rad bwode li sou li. Tout fidonè li yo ap mache dèyè l': yo prezante yo ba ou tou.
In colorful garments she is led to the king; her virgin companions are brought before you.
15 Y'ap vini, yo kontan, y'ap chante, y'ap antre nan palè wa a.
They are led in with joy and gladness; they enter the palace of the king.
16 Monwa, pitit ou yo va chita kote zansèt ou yo te chita a. W'ap mete yo chèf sou tout latè.
Your sons will succeed your fathers; you will make them princes throughout the land.
17 Mwen vle chante pou yo pa janm bliye ou, konsa moun lòt peyi yo va fè lwanj ou tout tan tout tan.
I will commemorate your name through all generations; therefore the nations will praise you forever and ever.
