Sòm 95

1 O vini, annou chante a SENYÈ a! Annou rele fò avèk jwa a wòch ki sove nou an;

Come! Let us ring out our joy to the Lord, let us merrily shout to our rock of salvation.

2 Annou vini devan prezans Li avèk remèsiman, Annou rele fò a Li menm avèk sòm.

Before his face let us come with thanks, with songs of praise let us shout to him.

3 Paske SENYÈ a se yon gran Bondye, e yon gran wa pi wo ke tout dye yo.

For the Lord is a great God, king above all gods.

4 Nan men (Sila) pwofondè latè yo ye a. Pwent mòn yo osi se pou Li.

In his hand are the depths of the earth, the heights of the mountains are his.

5 Lanmè a se pou Li, paske se te Li menm ki te fè l. Ak men L, Li te fòme tè sèch la.

The sea is his, for he made it: the dry land was formed by his hands.

6 Vini, annou fè adorasyon, e annou pwostène. Annou mete ajenou devan SENYÈ ki te fè nou an.

Come! Let us worship and bow on our knees to the Lord our creator.

7 Paske se Li menm ki Bondye nou an. Nou se moun patiraj Li ak mouton men Li yo. Jodi a, si nou ta vle tande vwa L,

For he is our God; and we are the people he tends, the sheep in his care. If only you would heed his voice today:

8 pa fè kè nou vin di tankou nan Meriba, tankou nan jou a Massa nan dezè yo,

‘Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, or at Massah, that day in the desert,

9 “lè papa zansèt nou yo te pase M a leprèv. Yo te tante Mwen, malgre yo te deja wè zèv Mwen yo.

when your ancestors tempted and tried me, though they had seen my deeds.

10 Pandan karantan, Mwen te rayi jenerasyon (sila) a e te di: “Yo se yon pèp ki egare nan kè yo. Yo pa rekonèt chemen Mwen yo.”

‘For forty years I was filled with loathing for that generation, so I said: “A people with wandering hearts are they, and ignorant of my ways.”

11 Akoz sa, Mwen te sèmante nan kòlè Mwen, “Anverite, yo p ap antre nan repo Mwen an.”

So I solemnly swore to them in my anger, that never would they enter my place of rest.’
