Psalms 119
1 ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord.
Ala bon sa bon pou moun k'ap mennen yon lavi san repwòch, pou moun k'ap mache dapre lalwa Seyè a!
2 Blessed are they who search his testimonies: that seek him with their whole heart.
Ala bon sa bon pou moun ki kenbe prensip li yo, pou moun k'ap chache obeyi l' ak tout kè yo!
3 For they that work iniquity, have not walked in his ways.
Moun konsa p'ap fè mal, y'ap mache nan chemen li mete devan yo.
4 Thou hast commanded thy commandments to be kept most diligently.
Ou ban nou lòd pou nou swiv. Ou mande pou nou obeyi yo san manke yonn.
5 O! that my ways may be directed to keep thy justifications.
Jan m' ta renmen kenbe fèm pou m' toujou fè sa ou mande!
6 Then shall I not be confounded, when I shall look into all thy commandments.
Konsa, mwen p'ap janm wont lè m'ap kalkile kòmandman ou yo.
