Sòm 138

1 Yon Sòm David Mwen va bay Ou remèsiman avèk tout kè m. Mwen va chante lwanj a Ou devan lòt dye yo.

A Psalme of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: euen before the gods will I praise thee.

2 Mwen va pwostène mwen vè sen tanp Ou a, e bay remèsiman a non Ou pou lanmou dous Ou ak verite Ou a; Paske Ou te bay glwa a Non ak Pawòl Ou plis ke tout bagay.

I will worship toward thine holy Temple and praise thy Name, because of thy louing kindenesse and for thy trueth: for thou hast magnified thy Name aboue all things by thy word.

3 Nan jou ke m te rele Ou a, Ou te reponn mwen. Ou te fè m plen ak kouraj ak fòs nan nanm mwen.

When I called, then thou heardest me, and hast encreased strength in my soule.

4 Tout wa sou latè yo va ba Ou remèsiman, O SENYÈ, lè yo fin tande pawòl a bouch Ou.

All the Kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord: for they haue heard the wordes of thy mouth.

5 Wi, yo va chante sou chemen SENYÈ a, paske gran se glwa SENYÈ a.

And they shall sing of the wayes of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord is great.

6 Paske malgre SENYÈ a egzalte, Li toujou okipe (sila) ki ba yo. Men moun ki ògeye yo, Li rekonèt yo de lwen.

For the Lord is high: yet he beholdeth the lowly, but the proude he knoweth afarre off.

7 Malgre mwen mache nan mitan gwo twoub, Ou va fè m reprann mwen. Ou va lonje fè parèt men Ou kont kòlè ènmi m yo. Men dwat Ou va sove mwen.

Though I walke in the middes of trouble, yet wilt thou reuiue me: thou wilt stretch foorth thine hand vpon the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall saue me.

8 SENYÈ a va akonpli sa ki konsène mwen an. Lanmou dous Ou a, O SENYÈ, se pou tout tan. Pa abandone zèv men Ou yo.

The Lord will performe his worke toward me: O Lord, thy mercie endureth for euer: forsake not the workes of thine handes.
