Sòm 127

1 Yon chan pou monte vè tanp lan. Yon chan Salomon. Amwenske se SENYÈ a ki bati kay la, (sila) ki bati li yo, travay anven. Amwenske SENYÈ a veye pòtay la, gadyen an rete zye louvri anven.

song [the] step to/for Solomon if: until LORD not to build house: home vanity: vain to toil to build him in/on/with him if: until LORD not to keep: guard city vanity: vain to watch to keep: guard

2 Se an ven pou ou leve bonè e ale dòmi ta, pou manje pen a travay di yo, paske se domi Li bay a moun li renmen.

vanity: vain to/for you to rise to arise: rise to delay to dwell to eat food: bread [the] toil so to give: give to/for beloved his sleep

3 Veye byen, pitit se yon don SENYÈ a. Fwi a vant la se yon rekonpans.

behold inheritance LORD son: child wages fruit [the] belly: womb

4 Tankou flèch nan men a yon gèrye, Se konsa pitit a jèn yo ye.

like/as arrow in/on/with hand mighty man so son: child [the] youth

5 A la beni se nonm ke veso l plen ak yo. Yo p ap wont lè yo pale ak lènmi yo nan pòtay la.

blessed [the] great man which to fill [obj] quiver his from them not be ashamed for to speak: speak with enemy in/on/with gate
