< Sòm 96 >
1 Chante yon chante tou nèf pou Seyè a! Nou tout ki rete sou latè, chante pou Seyè a!
O sing to Jehovah a new song. Sing to Jehovah, all the earth.
2 Chante pou Seyè a, fè lwanj li! Chak jou, fè konnen jan li delivre nou.
Sing to Jehovah, bless his name. Show forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Fè nasyon yo konnen pouvwa li. Fè tout pèp yo konnen bèl bagay li fè yo.
Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.
4 Seyè a gen gwo pouvwa. Li merite pou yo fè lwanj li vre. Se pou moun pè l' pi plis pase lòt bondye yo.
For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised. He is to be feared above all gods.
5 Bondye lòt nasyon yo pa anyen, se pòtre yo ye. Men, se Seyè a ki fè syèl la.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but Jehovah made the heavens.
6 Devan li se respè, se chapo ba. Gen pouvwa, gen mèvèy nan kay ki apa pou li a!
Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Nou tout pèp ki sou latè, fè lwanj Seyè a! Fè lwanj Seyè a pou pouvwa ak fòs li genyen!
Ascribe to Jehovah, ye kindred of the peoples. Ascribe to Jehovah glory and strength.
8 Fè lwanj li paske li merite sa! Pote ofrann ba li anndan lakay li!
Ascribe to Jehovah the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
9 Adore Bondye nan bèl kay ki apa pou li a! Nou tout ki sou latè, tranble devan li.
O worship Jehovah in holy array. Tremble before him, all the earth.
10 Mache di nan tout peyi yo: Se Seyè a ki sèl wa. Latè kanpe fèm, anyen pa ka brannen l'. L'ap jije tout moun san patipri.
Say among the nations, Jehovah reigns! The world also is established that it cannot be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity.
11 Se pou syèl la kontan, se pou latè a fè fèt. Se pou lanmè a ansanm ak tou sa ki ladan l' pran fè bri sitèlman yo kontan.
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof.
12 Se pou jaden yo ak tou sa ki ladan yo fè fèt. Se pou tout pyebwa nan gwo rak yo rele sitèlman yo kontan,
Let the field exult, and all that is in it. Then all the trees of the wood shall sing for joy
13 lè Seyè a parèt. Paske, l'ap vini. L'ap vini pou l' jije tout moun ki sou latè. L'ap jije tout moun san patipri. L'ap jije tout pèp yo jan sa dwe fèt.
before Jehovah, for he comes. For he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with his truth.
