Sòm 87

1 Yon Sòm a fis a Koré yo; Yon Chan Fondasyon Li nan mòn sen yo.

Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. A Song. His foundation is in the mountains of holiness.

2 SENYÈ a renmen pòtay Sion yo plis pase tout lòt abitasyon a Jacob yo.

Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion more than all the habitations of Jacob.

3 Yo pale sou gran mèvèy ou, O gran vil Bondye. Tan

Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)

4 Mwen va mete Rahab avèk Babylone pami (sila) ki rekonèt Mwen yo. Men vwala, Philistie, Tyr, avèk Éthiopie: “Tèl moun te fèt la”.

I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon among them that know me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: this [man] was born there.

5 Men selon Sion, li va pale, “Sa a ak (sila) a fèt ladann.” Pi Wo a, Li menm, va etabli Sion.

And of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; and the Most High himself shall establish her.

6 SENYÈ a va konte lè Li anrejistre tout pèp yo: “Sa a te fèt la”. Tan

Jehovah will count, when he inscribeth the peoples, This [man] was born there. (Selah)

7 Epi (sila) ki chante ansanm avèk (sila) ki jwe flit yo va di: “Tout sous bwote yo, se nan ou”.

As well the singers as the dancers [shall say], All my springs are in thee.
