Sòm 119
1 ALÈPH. A la beni se (sila) ak chemen ki san fot yo, ki mache nan lalwa SENYÈ a.
ALEPH. Happy are they whose way is perfect, who walk in the law of the Lord.
2 A la beni se (sila) ki kenbe temwayaj Li yo, Ki chache Li ak tout kè yo.
Happy are they who keep his testimonies, that seek him with all their heart.
3 Ki pa fè okenn inikite. Yo mache nan chemen Li yo.
They also commit no injustice; in his ways do they walk.
4 Ou te òdone règleman Ou yo, pou nou ta kenbe yo ak dilijans.
Thou thyself hast commanded us thy precepts, that we might keep [them] diligently.
5 O ke chemen mwen yo kapab vin etabli pou kenbe règleman Ou yo!
Oh that my ways were firmly directed to observe thy statutes!
6 Konsa, mwen p ap vin desi lè m gade kòmandman Ou yo.
Then would I not be made ashamed, while I look at all thy commandments.
7 Mwen va bay Ou remèsiman avèk yon kè ki dwat, lè mwen aprann jijman dwat Ou yo.
I will thank thee with uprightness of heart, when I learn thy righteous ordinances.
8 Mwen va kenbe règleman Ou yo. Pa abandone m nèt! BETH
Thy statutes will I observe: oh forsake me not too greatly.
9 Kijan yon jennonm kapab kenbe wout li yo san fot? Nan kenbe li selon pawòl Ou.
BETH. Wherewithal shall a youth keep his way pure? by guarding it according to thy word.
10 Ak tout kè mwen, mwen te chache Ou. Pa kite mwen vin egare e kite lòd Ou yo.
With all my heart have I sought thee: oh let me not wander astray from thy commandments.
11 Pawòl Ou yo, mwen te kenbe yo nan kè m, pou m pa t peche kont Ou.
In my heart have I treasured up thy saying, in order that I may not sin against thee.
12 Beni se Ou menm SENYÈ a. Enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
Blessed art thou, O Lord: teach me thy statutes.
13 Avèk lèv mwen, mwen te pale selon tout òdonans bouch Ou yo.
With my lips have I related all the ordinances of thy mouth.
14 Mwen te rejwi nan chemen temwayaj Ou yo, konsi se nan tout richès yo.
On the way of thy testimonies have I been glad, as over all wealth.
15 Mwen va reflechi sou règleman Ou yo, e okipe chemen Ou yo.
On thy precepts will I meditate, and direct my look unto thy paths.

18 Ouvri zye m pou m kab wè bèl bagay nan lalwa Ou yo.
Open thou my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.
19 Mwen se yon etranje sou latè. Pa kache kòmandman Ou yo de mwen.
A stranger am I on the earth: hide not from me thy commandments.
20 Nanm mwen kraze ak anvi pou òdonans Ou yo tout tan.
My soul is broken from longing for thy ordinances at all times.
21 Ou repwoche ògeye yo, moun madichonnen yo, k ap egare kite kòmandman Ou yo.
Thou hast rebuked the accursed proud, who go erringly astray from thy commandments.
22 Retire repwòch ak mepri a sou mwen, paske mwen obsève temwayaj Ou yo.
Roll away from me reproach and contempt; for thy testimonies have I kept.
23 Malgre prens yo vin chita pou pale kont mwen, Sèvitè Ou va reflechi tout tan sou règleman Ou yo.
Although even princes should sit and speak against me, thy servant would still meditate on thy statutes.
24 Anplis, temwayaj Ou yo se plezi mwen ak konseye mwen yo. DALETH
Also thy testimonies are my delight, my counsellors.
25 Nanm mwen kole rèd nan pousyè a. Fè m leve selon pawòl Ou.
DALETH. My soul cleaveth unto the dust: revive thou me according to thy word.
26 Mwen te pale sou chemen mwen yo, e Ou te reponn mwen. Enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
My ways do I relate [to thee], and thou answerest me: teach me thy statutes.
27 Fè m konprann chemen òdonans Ou yo, pou m kab reflechi tout tan sou mèvèy Ou yo.

My soul droppeth away from grief: sustain me according to thy word.
29 Retire sou mwen fo chemen an e ban mwen gras nan lalwa Ou a.
The way of falsehood do thou remove from me, and grant me graciously thy law.
30 Mwen te chwazi chemen fidèl Ou a. Mwen te mete òdonans Ou yo devan m.
The way of truth have I chosen: thy ordinances have I set [before me].
31 Mwen kole rèd de temwayaj Ou yo. O SENYÈ, pa fè m desi.
I have adhered unto thy testimonies: O Lord, put me not to shame.
32 Mwen va kouri nan vwa kòmandman Ou yo, paske Ou va fè kè m vin grandi. HE
The way of thy commandments will I run; for thou wilt enlarge my heart.
33 Enstwi mwen, O SENYÈ, nan chemen règleman Ou yo e mwen va obsève li jiska lafen.

Guide me on the path of thy commandments; for therein do I find my delight.
36 Enkline kè m a temwayaj Ou yo, e pa nan ranmase richès malonèt.
Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to desire for gain.

Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity: on thy way do thou give me life.
38 Etabli pawòl Ou a Sèvitè Ou a, kon (sila) ki gen lakrent Ou.
Fulfill unto thy servant thy promise for those who are devoted to thy fear.
39 Detounen lwen m repwòch Ou ke mwen krent anpil, paske òdonans Ou yo bon.
Cause to pass away my disgrace of which I have dread; for thy ordinances are good.
40 Gade byen, mwen gen anpil anvi pou òdonans Ou yo! Fè m remonte nan ladwati Ou. VAV
Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: through thy righteousness do thou give my life.
41 Anplis, ke lanmou dous Ou a kapab rive kote mwen, O SENYÈ, sali Ou a selon pawòl Ou.
VAV. And let thy kindness come unto me, O Lord, thy salvation, according to thy promise.
42 Pou m kab genyen yon repons pou (sila) ki repwoche m nan, paske mwen mete konfyans mwen nan pawòl Ou.
Then shall I have a word to answer the one that reproacheth me; for I trust in thy word.
43 Pa retire pawòl verite a pou l ta kite bouch mwen nèt, Paske se òdonans Ou yo ke m ap tann.

And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I love.
48 Mwen va lonje men m vè kòmandman Ou yo ke m tèlman renmen. Mwen va reflechi tout tan sou règleman Ou yo. ZAYIN
And so will I lift up my hands unto thy commandments, which I love, and I will meditate on thy statutes.
49 Sonje pawòl a sèvitè Ou a. Se nan li Ou te fè m gen espwa a.
ZAYIN. Remember thy word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to wait.
50 Se sa ki ban m rekonfò nan mizè mwen an, paske se pawòl Ou ki fè m rekouvri fòs.
This is my comfort in my affliction, that thy promise hath revived me.
51 Moun awogan yo meprize m nèt, men mwen pa vire kite lalwa Ou.

I hastened, and delayed not to observe thy commandments.
61 Kòd a mechan yo te antoure m, men mwen pa t bliye lalwa Ou.
Companies of wicked men have surrounded me; but I have not forgotten thy law.
62 A minwi, mwen va leve bay Ou remèsiman, akoz òdonans dwat Ou yo.
At midnights do I constantly rise to give thanks unto thee, because of thy righteous decrees.

Before I was afflicted I was in error; but now I observe thy saying.
68 Ou bon e Ou fè sa ki bon. Enstwi mwen nan règleman Ou yo.
Thou art good, and doing good: teach me thy statutes.
69 Awogan yo te fòje yon manti kont mwen. Avèk tout kè m, mwen va obsève tout òdonans Ou yo.
The presumptuous have invented falsehoods against me; but I will with all my heart indeed keep thy precepts.
70 Kè yo rèd, kouvri ak grès, men mwen pran plezi nan lalwa Ou.
Gross as fat is their heart; but I take truly delight in thy law.

Let, I pray thee, thy kindness come to comfort me, according to thy promise unto thy servant.
77 Ke mizerikòd Ou kapab rive kote mwen, pou m kab viv, paske lalwa Ou se plezi mwen.
Let thy mercies come unto me, that I may live; for thy law is my delight.
78 Ke awogan yo kapab vin desi, paske yo desann mwen, ranvèse mwen ak manti. Men mwen va reflechi tout tan sou òdonans Ou yo.
Let the presumptuous be made ashamed; because they have without a cause dealt perversely with me; but I will indeed meditate on thy precepts.
79 Ke (sila) ki krent Ou yo kapab vire kote mwen. Yo va konnen règleman Ou yo.
Let those that fear thee return unto me, and those that know thy testimonies.
80 Ke kè m kapab san tò nan règleman Ou yo, pou m pa vin desi. KAPH
Let my heart be entire in thy statutes, in order that I may not be put to shame.

82 Zye m vin ba ak anvi pawòl Ou, pandan m ap di: “Kilè W ap vin konsole mwen?”
My eyes look eagerly for thy promise, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
83 Sepandan, mwen vin tankou yon vye kwi diven k ap pran lafimen, Mwen pa bliye règleman Ou yo.
For I am become like a bottle in the smoke: [yet] do I not forget thy statutes.
84 Konbyen jou sèvitè Ou gen? Se kilè Ou va pase jijman sou (sila) ki pèsekite mwen yo?
How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute justice on my persecutors?
85 Awogan yo fin fouye fòs yo pou mwen, (Sila) ki pa an akò ak lalwa Ou yo.
The presumptuous have dug pits for me, which is not in accordance with thy law.
86 Tout kòmandman Ou yo fidèl. Se ak manti yo te pèsekite mwen. Fè m sekou!
All thy commandments are founded on truth: without cause they persecute me; help thou me.
87 Yo te prèske fin detwi m sou latè, Men pou mwen, mwen pa t kite òdonans Ou yo.
But little was wanting that they had consumed me upon earth; but I have truly not forsaken thy precepts.
88 Fè m reprann mwen selon lanmou dous Ou a, Pou m kab kenbe temwayaj a bouch Ou yo. LAMEDH
According to thy kindness give me life, that I may observe the testimony of thy mouth.
89 Jis pou tout tan, O SENYÈ, pawòl Ou fin etabli nan syèl la.
LAMED. To eternity, O Lord, standeth firm thy word with the heavens.
90 Fidelite Ou pandan tout jenerasyon yo. Ou te etabli tè a e li vin kanpe nèt.
Unto all generations endureth thy faithfulness: thou hast established the earth, and she standeth.

According to thy ordinances they exist this day: for all are thy servants.
92 Si lalwa Ou pa t plezi mwen, mwen t ap gen tan peri nan mizè mwen an.
Unless thy law had been my delights, I should long since have been lost in my affliction.

Thine am I, save me; for thy precepts have I sought.

Wicked men have waited for me to destroy me; [but] I will reflect on thy testimonies.
96 Mwen gen tan fin wè lizyè a tout pèfèksyon, men kòmandman Ou an vrèman vast. MEM
