Sòm 149

1 Louwe SENYÈ a! Chante a SENYÈ a yon chan tounèf, avèk lwanj Li nan asanble fidèl Li yo.

Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: let his praise be in the church of the saints.

2 Kite Israël fè kè kontan nan Kreyatè li a. Kite fis a Sion yo rejwi nan Wa yo a.

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king.

3 Kite yo louwe non Li avèk dans! Kite yo chante lwanj a Li avèk tanbouren ak gita.

Let them praise his name in choir: let them sing to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.

4 Paske SENYÈ a pran plezi nan pèp Li a. Li va anbeli enb yo avèk sali Li.

For the Lord is well pleased with his people: and he will exalt the meek unto salvation.

5 Kite fidèl yo leve wo nan glwa. Kite yo chante ak lajwa sou kabann yo.

The saints shall rejoice in glory: they shall be joyful in their beds.

6 Ke gwo lwanj a Bondye yo kapab nan bouch yo, ak yon nepe file de bò nan men yo,

The high praise of God shall be in their mouth: and two-edged swords in their hands:

7 pou fè vanjans sou nasyon yo, avèk pinisyon sou lòt pèp yo;

To execute vengeance upon the nations, chastisements among the people:

8 pou mare wa yo ak chenn, ak moun pwisan yo nan gwo chenn an fè,

To bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron.

9 pou egzekite sou yo jijman ki te ekri a. Sa se lonè de tout fidèl Li yo. Louwe SENYÈ a!

To execute upon them the judgment that is written: this glory is to all his saints. Alleluia.
