Sòm 149

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

Hallelujah. Sing unto the Lord a new song, his praise in the congregation of the pious.

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

Let Israel rejoice in his Maker: let the children of Zion exult 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 the dance: with the timbrel and harp let them sing praises unto him.

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

For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people; he will adorn the meek with salvation.

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

Let the pious be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their couches.

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

The exalted praises of God are in their mouth, and a two-edged sword is in their hand;

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

To execute vengeance on the nations, and chastisements on the people:

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

To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters 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 [which is] written: this is an honor for all his pious servants. Hallelujah.
