Sòm 24

1 Yon sòm David Tè a se pou SENYÈ a, avèk tout sa ki ladann; lemonn avèk tout (sila) ki rete ladann yo.

[A Psalm by David.] The earth is Jehovah's, and its fullness; the world, and those who dwell in it.

2 Li te fonde li sou lanmè yo, e te etabli li sou rivyè yo.

For he has founded it on the seas, and established it on the floods.

3 Se kilès ki kab monte sou kolin SENYÈ a? Epi kilès ki kab kanpe nan lye sen pa Li an?

Who may ascend to Jehovah's hill? Who may stand in his holy place?

4 (Sila) ki gen men pwòp avèk yon kè ki san tach, ki pa leve nanm li vè sa ki fo, ni ki pa fè fo temwayaj.

He who has clean hands and a pure heart; who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood, and has not sworn deceitfully.

5 Li va resevwa yon benediksyon soti nan SENYÈ a, ak ladwati soti nan Bondye delivrans li an.

He shall receive a blessing from Jehovah, righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 Sa se jenerasyon a (sila) k ap chache Li yo, ka p chache figi Ou—menm Jacob. Tan

This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Selah)

7 Leve wo lento ou yo, o pòtay yo! Leve wo, o pòt ansyen yo! Pou Wa glwa la kapab antre!

Lift up your heads, you gates. Be lifted up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

8 Se kilès ki Wa a glwa a? SENYÈ fò e pwisan an, SENYÈ a pwisan nan batay la.

Who is the King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty in battle.

9 Leve wo lento ou yo, O Pòtay yo! Leve wo, O pòt ansyen yo! Pou Wa glwa la kapab antre!

Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

10 Se kilès ki Wa glwa a? SENYÈ dèzame yo! Se Li menm ki Wa glwa a. Tan.

Who is this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts is the King of glory. (Selah)
