1 Yon sòm David Bay a SENYÈ a, O Fis a moun pwisan yo, bay a SENYÈ a, glwa avèk gwo fòs.

A psalm of David. Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings, ascribe to the Lord glory and power

2 Bay a SENYÈ a, glwa ke non Li merite a. Adore SENYÈ a avèk tout sa ki sen.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory he manifests: bow to the Lord in holy array.

3 Vwa SENYÈ a sou dlo yo. Bondye glwa la fè tonnè gwonde, eklate. SENYÈ a sou anpil dlo.

The Lord’s voice peals on the waters. The God of glory has thundered. He peals o’er the mighty waters.

4 Vwa SENYÈ a gen gwo fòs. Vwa SENYÈ a ranpli ak majeste.

The Lord’s voice sounds with strength, the Lord’s voice sounds with majesty.

5 Vwa SENYÈ a fann bwa sèd yo. Wi, SENYÈ a fann an mòso bwa sèd Liban yo.

The Lord’s voice breaks the cedars, he breaks the cedars of Lebanon,

6 Li fè Liban sote. Li ponpe tankou yon ti bèf, e Sirion tankou yon jèn bèf mawon.

making Lebanon dance like a calf, Sirion like a young wild ox.

7 Vwa SENYÈ a koupe fè flanm dife.

The Lord’s voice hews out flames of fire.

8 Vwa SENYÈ a souke savann nan. Vwa SENYÈ a souke savann Kadès la.

The Lord’s voice rends the desert, he rends the desert of Kadesh.

9 Vwa SENYÈ a fè bich la fè pitit. Li fè forè a vin toutouni. Nan tanp Li a, tout moun ki la yo rele: “Glwa”!

The Lord’s voice whirls the oaks, and strips the forests bare; and all in his temple say ‘Glory.’

10 SENYÈ a te chita kon Wa nan gran inondasyon an. Wi, SENYÈ a chita kon Wa jis pou tout tan.

The Lord was king at the flood, the Lord sits throned forever.

11 SENYÈ a va bay fòs a pèp Li a. SENYÈ a va beni pèp li a avèk lapè.

The Lord gives strength to his people, he blesses his people with peace.
