Psalms 19
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. The heavens describe the glory of God, and the firmament announces the work of his hands.
Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Syèl la fè parèt aklè pouvwa Bondye a. Li fè wè tou sa Bondye te fè ak men l'.
2 Day proclaims the word to day, and night to night imparts knowledge.
Jounen jòdi a rakonte koze sa a bay jounen denmen k'ap vini an. Lannwit sa a repete l' bay lannwit ki vin apre a.
3 There are no speeches or conversations, where their voices are not being heard.
Yo pa pale, yo pa di yon mo. Ou pa tande yon ti bwi.
4 Their sound has gone forth through all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
Men, sa yo di a mache ale toupatou sou latè. Mesaj y'ap bay la rive jouk nan dènye bout latè. Bondye moute yon kay nan syèl la pou solèy la.
5 He has placed his tabernacle in the sun, and he is like a bridegroom coming out of his bedroom. He has exulted like a giant running along the way;
Solèy la menm soti tankou yon nonm ki fèk marye k'ap soti anndan chanm li. Li kontan, l'ap kouri tankou yon gwonèg ki konnen li deja genyen kous la.
6 his departure is from the summit of heaven. And his course reaches all the way to its summit. Neither is there anyone who can hide himself from his heat.
Solèy la leve nan yon bout syèl la, li kouche nan lòt bout la. Chalè li bat sou tout bagay.
7 The law of the Lord is immaculate, converting souls. The testimony of the Lord is faithful, providing wisdom to little ones.
Lalwa Seyè a bon sou tout pwen. Li moutre nou jan pou nou viv. Nou mèt gen konfyans nan kòmandman Seyè a. Tout moun ki pa gen konprann, l'ap ba yo konprann.
8 The justice of the Lord is right, rejoicing hearts. The precepts of the Lord are brilliant, enlightening the eyes.
Regleman Seyè a se bagay ki dwat. Moun ki swiv yo ap gen kè kontan. Kòmandman li yo klè. Yo louvri je moun.
9 The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for all generations. The judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves:
Se pou nou gen krentif pou Seyè a yon jan ki san repwòch. Epi se tout tan pou nou gen krentif sa a. Jijman Seyè a se verite, yo pa janm nan patipri.
10 desirable beyond gold and many precious stones, and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
Moun ap kouri dèyè yo pi rèd pase dèyè lò, menm pase lò ki pi bon an. Yo pi dous pase siwo myèl, menm pase siwo k'ap degoute nan gato myèl.
11 For, indeed, your servant keeps them, and in keeping them, there are many rewards.
Mwen menm k'ap sèvi ou la, yo ban m' anpil konesans. Gen gwo rekonpans pou moun k'ap obeyi yo.
12 Who can understand transgression? From my hidden faults, cleanse me, O Lord,
Ki moun ki konnen tou sa li fè ki mal? Tanpri, Seyè, delivre m' anba sa mwen fè ki mal san m' pa konnen!
13 and from those of others, spare your servant. If they will have no dominion over me, then I will be immaculate, and I will be cleansed from the greatest transgression.
Mwen menm k'ap sèvi ou la, pwoteje m' tou anba peche mwen fè ak tout konesans mwen. Pa kite yo pran pye sou mwen. Se lè sa a m'a san repwòch. Se lè sa a m'a delivre anba gwo peche a.
14 And the eloquence of my mouth will be so as to please, along with the meditation of my heart, in your sight, forever, O Lord, my helper and my redeemer.
Seyè, se ou ki twou wòch kote m' kache a, se ou ki delivrans mwen, mwen mande ou pou pawòl ki soti nan bouch mwen, ak lide k'ap travay nan tèt mwen fè ou plezi.
