Sòm 99

1 Se Seyè a ki wa! Pèp yo ap tranble. Li chita sou fotèy li anwo zanj cheriben yo. Tout moun sou latè ap tranble!

The Lord reigneth, let the people tremble: he sitteth betweene the Cherubims, let the earth be moued.

2 Seyè a gen pouvwa nan peyi Siyon! L'ap gouvènen sou tout pèp yo.

The Lord is great in Zion, and he is high aboue all the people.

3 Se pou tout moun fè lwanj li, paske li gen pouvwa, li merite respè! Se Bondye tout bon li ye!

They shall prayse thy great and fearefull Name (for it is holy)

4 Ou se yon wa ki gen pouvwa, yon wa ki renmen sa ki dwat. Ou mete jistis toupatou nan peyi Izrayèl. Ou fè yo fè jistis nan peyi a san patipri, jan sa dwe fèt.

And the Kings power, that loueth iudgement: for thou hast prepared equitie: thou hast executed iudgement and iustice in Iaakob.

5 Lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an! Bese tèt nou devan fotèy li. Sè Bondye tout bon li ye!

Exalt the Lord our God, and fall downe before his footestoole: for he is holy.

6 Moyiz ak Arawon te fè pati prèt li yo! Samyèl te yonn nan moun ki te sèvi l' yo! Tout twa te rele Seyè a, li te reponn yo.

Moses and Aaron were among his Priests, and Samuel among such as call vpon his Name: these called vpon the Lord, and he heard them.

7 Li rete nan poto nwaj la, li pale ak yo. Yo te obeyi lòd ak kòmandman li te ba yo.

Hee spake vnto them in the cloudie pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the Lawe that he gaue them.

8 Seyè, Bondye nou, ou te reponn yo lè yo te lapriyè ou! Ou te moutre yo se yon Bondye ki konn padonnen ou ye. Men, ou te pini yo pou sa yo fè ki mal.

Thou heardest them, O Lord our God: thou wast a fauourable God vnto them, though thou didst take vengeance for their inuentions.

9 Lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an! Adore l' sou mòn ki apa pou li a! Paske, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se Bondye tout bon li ye.

Exalt the Lord our God, and fall downe before his holy Mountaine: for the Lord our God is holy.
