Sòm 98

1 Se yon sòm. Chante yon chante tou nèf pou Seyè a, paske li pa manke fè bèl bagay. Pouvwa li avèk fòs ponyèt li se bagay apa, se ak yo li te genyen batay la.

A Psalm. Sing ye unto Jehovah a new song: for he hath done wondrous things; his right hand and his holy arm hath wrought salvation for him.

2 Seyè a te fè wè jan l' delivre nou. Li te fè nasyon yo konnen jan li fè lèzòm gras.

Jehovah hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the nations.

3 Li te chonje jan li renmen moun Izrayèl yo, jan li toujou kenbe pawòl li gen ak yo. Moun toupatou sou latè te wè jan Bondye nou an ap delivre nou.

He hath remembered his loving-kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

4 Nou tout ki rete sou latè, rele pou fè lwanj Seyè a tèlman nou kontan! Rele! Fè fèt! Chante!

Shout aloud unto Jehovah, all the earth; break forth and shout for joy, and sing psalms.

5 Chante pou Seyè a avèk gita! Avèk gita, chante kantik!

Sing psalms unto Jehovah with the harp: with the harp, and the voice of a song;

6 Soufle klewon, kònen lanbi! Rele devan Seyè a sitèlman nou kontan, paske se li ki wa.

With trumpets and sound of cornet, make a joyful noise before the King, Jehovah.

7 Se pou lanmè a ansanm ak tou sa k'ap viv ladan l' pran fè bri sitèlman yo kontan. Se pou latè a ansanm ak tou sa k'ap viv sou li pran chante.

Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein;

8 Se pou larivyè yo pran bat men yo. Se pou tout ti mòn yo pran chante ansanm sitèlman yo kontan.

Let the floods clap [their] hands; let the mountains sing for joy together,

9 Paske, l'ap vini pou l' jije tout moun ki sou latè! L'ap jije tout moun san patipri. L'ap jije tout pèp yo dapre sa yo merite.

Before Jehovah, for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.
