Sòm 101

1 Yon Sòm David Mwen va chante de lanmou dous avèk jistis. A Ou menm, O SENYÈ, mwen va chante lwanj.

A Psalm. Of David. I will make a song of mercy and righteousness; to you, O Lord, will I make melody.

2 Mwen va prete atansyon a chemen san repwòch la. Kilè Ou va vini kote mwen? Mwen va mache anndan lakay mwen ak entegrite nan kè m.

I will do wisely in the way of righteousness: O when will you come to me? I will be walking in my house with a true heart.

3 Mwen p ap mete okenn vye bagay devan zye m. Mwen rayi zèv a (sila) ki chite yo. Sa p ap tache men l sou mwen.

I will not put any evil thing before my eyes; I am against all turning to one side; I will not have it near me.

4 Yon kè ki pèvès va oblije kite prezans mwen. Mwen p ap aksepte konnen okenn mal.

The false heart I will send away from me: I will not have an evil-doer for a friend.

5 Nenpòt moun ki bay vwazen li kout lang an sekrè, li menm, mwen va detwi. Nenpòt moun ak rega awogan oswa ògèy, mwen p ap sipòte li.

I will put to death anyone who says evil of his neighbour secretly; the man with a high look and a heart of pride is disgusting to me.

6 Zye m va sou fidèl a peyi a pou yo kab rete avè m. (Sila) ki mache nan chemen san fot la, se li menm ki va sèvitè mwen.

My eyes will be on those of good faith in the land, so that they may be living in my house; he who is walking in the right way will be my servant.

7 (Sila) ki pratike manti p ap rete lakay mwen. (Sila) ki bay manti p ap kenbe pozisyon li devan m.

The worker of deceit will not come into my house; the false man will have no place before my eyes.

8 Chak maten mwen va detwi tout mechan nan peyi yo, Pou m kab koupe retire nan vil SENYÈ a, tout moun ki fè inikite yo.

Morning by morning will I put to death all the sinners in the land, so that all evil-doers may be cut off from Jerusalem.
