Sòm 87

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

A Psalme or song committed to the sonnes of Korah. God layde his foundations among the holy mountaines.

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

The Lord loueth the gates of Zion aboue all the habitations of Iaakob.

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

Glorious things are spoken of thee, O citie 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 Babel among them that knowe me: beholde Palestina and Tyrus with Ethiopia, There is he borne.

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 sayde, Many are borne in her: and he, euen the most High shall stablish her.

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

The Lord shall count, when hee writeth the people, He was borne there. (Selah)

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

Aswell the singers as the players on instruments shall prayse thee: all my springs are in thee.
