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. O sing to the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

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

The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shown in the sight of the heathen.

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 mercy and his truth towards 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!

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

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

Sing to the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.

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 LORD, the King.

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 fullness of it, 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 hills be joyful 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 the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness will he judge the world, and the people with equity.
