Psalms 19

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.

Pou direktè koral la; yon sòm David Syèl yo ap pale glwa Bondye a. Jan yo tèlman gran deklare zèv men Li yo.

2 Day after day they pour out speech, and night after night they display knowledge.

Jou apre jou, l ap pale san rete; Nwit apre nwit, li revele konesans.

3 There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard.

Nanpwen langaj, ni pa gen pawòl kote nou pa tande vwa yo.

4 Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,

Sepandan, eko yo retanti sou tout latè, ak sa yo pale jis nan ekstremite latè a. Nan mitan yo, Li te plase yon tant pou solèy la,

5 which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.

ki tankou yon jennonm ki fenk marye k ap sòti nan chanm li. Li rejwi kon yon nonm fò k ap fè kous.

6 His going out is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends. There is nothing hidden from its heat.

Li leve soti nan yon pwent syèl, pou fè wonn li rive jis nan lòt pwent lan. Anyen pa chape devan chalè li.

7 The LORD’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. The LORD’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.

Lalwa SENYÈ a pafè Li rekonfòte nanm. Temwayaj SENYÈ a vrè, k ap fè saj yo senp.

8 The LORD’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. The LORD’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.

Prensip a SENYÈ yo dwat, ki fè kè rejwi. Kòmandman SENYÈ a san tach. Li fè zye yo limen.

9 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever. The LORD’s ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.

Lakrent SENYÈ a pi; Li dire jis pou tout tan. Jijman yo SENYÈ a vrè; Yo jis san manke.

10 They are more to be desired than gold, yes, than much fine gold, sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.

Yo pi chè pase lò, wi, pase anpil lò fen. Yo pi dous pase myèl, pase siwo a ki tonbe nan gato myèl la.

11 Moreover your servant is warned by them. In keeping them there is great reward.

Anplis, se pa yo menm ke sèvitè Ou a resevwa avètisman pou fè atansyon. Pou (sila) ki kenbe yo, gen gran rekonpans.

12 Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors.

Se kilès ki kab rekonèt fot li? Padone mwen pou fot ke m pa konnen yo.

13 Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.

Anplis, pwoteje sèvitè ou a kont peche ògèy yo. Pa kite yo vin domine m. Konsa, mwen kab rete san fot, epi va inosan a gran peche.

14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, LORD, my rock, and my redeemer.

Kite pawòl bouch mwen a avèk refleksyon kè m vin akseptab devan zye Ou, O SENYÈ, wòch mwen, ak sovè mwen an.
