Sòm 112

1 Louwe SENYÈ a! A la beni nonm ki krent SENYÈ a beni! (Sila) ki pran gwo plezi nan kòmandman Li yo.

Praise ye Jehovah. Blessed is the man who fears Jehovah, who delights greatly in his commandments.

2 Desandan li yo va pwisan sou latè. Jenerasyon ladwati a va beni.

His seed shall be mighty upon earth. The generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 Anpil byen ak gwo richès rete lakay li. Ladwati li dire pou tout tan.

Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

4 Limyè vin leve nan tenèb pou moun ladwati a; Li plen gras ak mizerikòd, ak jistis.

To the upright there arises light in the darkness. He is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

5 L ale byen pou nonm nan ki gen mizerikòd e ki prete; Li va prezève koz li a nan jijman an.

It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He shall maintain his cause in judgment,

6 Paske li p ap janm ebranle. Moun dwat la va sonje jis pou tout tan.

for he shall never be moved. A righteous man shall be had in everlasting remembrance.

7 Li p ap krent move nouvèl. Kè Li fèm ak konfyans nan SENYÈ a.

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings. His heart is fixed, trusting in Jehovah.

8 Kè li kanpe janm. Li pa pè anyen, jiskaske denyè moman an lè li gade ak kè kontan advèsè li yo.

His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, even until he looks over his adversaries.

9 Li te bay ak jenewozite a pòv yo. Ladwati li dire jis pou tout tan. Kòn li va egzalte nan lonè.

He has scattered, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn shall be exalted with honor.

10 Mechan an va wè l e l ap vekse nèt. Li va manje dan l e vin fonn pou l disparèt. Dezi a mechan an va peri.

A wicked man shall see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of wicked men shall perish.
