Sòm 125

1 Yon chan pou monte vè tanp lan. (Sila) ki mete konfyans yo nan SENYÈ a tankou Mòn Sion, ki pa kab deplase, men ki dire jis pou tout tan.

A Song of Degrees. They that trust in the Lord [shall be] as mount Sion: he that dwells in Jerusalem shall never be moved.

2 Kon mòn antoure Jérusalem yo, se konsa SENYÈ a antoure pèp Li a depi moman sa a, e jis rive pou tout tan.

The mountains are round about her, and [so] the Lord is round about his people, from henceforth and even for ever.

3 Paske baton wayal plen mechanste p ap poze sou peyi a moun ladwati yo, jis pou moun dwat yo pa leve men yo pou fè mal.

For the Lord will not allow the rod of sinners to be upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous should stretch forth their hands to iniquity.

4 Fè byen, SENYÈ, a (sila) ki bon yo, ak (sila) ki dwat nan kè yo.

Do good, O Lord, to them [that are] good, and to them [that are] upright in heart.

5 Men pou (sila) ki vire akote pou chemen kwochi pa yo, SENYÈ a va mennen yo sòti avèk (sila) ki fè inikite yo. Ke lapè rete sou Israël.

But them that turn aside to crooked ways the Lord will lead away with the workers of iniquity: [but] peace [shall be] upon Israel.
