Sòm 113

1 Louwe SENYÈ a! Louwe, O sèvitè a SENYÈ yo, Louwe non SENYÈ a.

Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise ye the name of the Lord.

2 Beni se non SENYÈ a, soti nan tan sa a e jis pou tout tan.

Let the name of the Lord be blessed from this time forth and for evermore.

3 Depi solèy leve jiskaske li kouche, non SENYÈ a dwe louwe.

From the rising of the sun unto his going down the name of the Lord is praised.

4 SENYÈ a wo, anwo tout nasyon yo! Glwa Li pi wo syèl yo!

High above all nations is the Lord, above the heavens is his glory.

5 Se kilès ki tankou SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, Ki sou twòn Li anwo a,

Who is like the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high?

6 ki abese tèt Li pou gade tout bagay ki nan syèl yo ak sou latè yo?

Who condescendeth to view what is done in the heavens, and on the earth?

7 Li fè malere a leve sòti nan pousyè a e leve endijan an sòti nan pil sann nan,

He raiseth up out of the dust the poor, from the dunghill he lifteth up the needy:

8 pou fè yo chita avèk prens yo. Menm avèk prens a pèp Li yo.

That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.

9 Li fè fanm steril la vin rete nan kay kon yon manman pitit ak kè kontan. Louwe SENYÈ a!

He causeth the barren woman to dwell in the midst of [her] household, the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.
