< Sòm 97 >
1 SENYÈ a renye, kite latè rejwi! Kite tout lil yo fè kè kontan!
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad [thereof].
2 Nwaj ak fènwa pwofon ap antoure Li. Ladwati avèk jistis se fondasyon twòn Li an.
Clouds and darkness [are] round about him: righteousness and judgment [are] the habitation of his throne.
3 Se dife ki ale devan L pou brile tout advèsè Li yo toupatou.
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4 Loray Li yo klere tout mond lan. Latè wè e li tranble.
His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5 Mòn yo fonn tankou lasi devan prezans SENYÈ a, devan prezans SENYÈ tout latè a.
The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 Syèl yo deklare ladwati Li e tout pèp yo te wè glwa Li.
The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7 Kite tout (sila) ki sèvi limaj taye yo vin wont, ki vin ògeye sou zafè zidòl yo. Adore Li, tout dye yo.
Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all [ye] gods.
8 Sion te tande sa e te rejwi. Fi a Sion yo te rejwi akoz jijman Ou, O SENYÈ.
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.
9 Paske Ou menm se SENYÈ Pi Wo a sou tout latè. Ou leve pi wo anpil pase tout dye yo.
For thou, LORD, [art] high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
10 Nou menm ki renmen SENYÈ a, rayi mal la! Li pwoteje nanm a fidèl Li yo. Li delivre yo nan men a mechan yo.
Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 Se limyè ki simen kon semans pou moun ladwati yo, ak kè kontan pou (sila) ak kè ki dwat yo.
Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Fè kè kontan nan SENYÈ a, nou menm ki moun dwat yo e bay remèsiman a non sen Li an.
Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
