Psalms 101

1 A Psalm of David. I will sing to you, O Lord, of mercy and judgment; I will sing a psalm,

Se yon sòm David. M'ap chante pou yon moun ki gen bon kè. M'ap chante pou yon moun ki pa nan patipri. Se pou ou m'ap chante, Seyè!

2 and I will be wise in a blameless way. When will you come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

M'ap mennen yon lavi san repwòch. Kilè w'a vin jwenn mwen?

3 I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful ting; I have hated transgressors.

M'ap mennen yon lavi san repwòch anndan lakay mwen. Mwen p'ap mete okenn move lide nan tèt mwen. Mwen rayi sa moun ki vire do bay Bondye yo ap fè. Bagay konsa pa ka pran tèt mwen.

4 A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me.

Mwen pa tolere moun ki gen move kè bò kote m'. Mwen pa gen anyen pou m' wè ak moun ki mechan.

5 Him that privily speaks against his neighbor, him have I driven from [me]: he that is proud in look and insatiable in heart, —with him I have not eaten.

M'ap disparèt tout moun k'ap pale zanmi yo mal an kachèt. Mwen p'ap tolere moun k'ap fè grandizè, moun k'ap pran pòz gwokolèt yo sou moun.

6 Mine eyes [shall be] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.

M'ap pran swen moun nan peyi a ki kenbe Bondye fèm. M'ap kite yo rete bò kote m'. Moun k'ap mache dwat yo, se yo m'ap pran pou sèvi lakay mwen.

7 The proud doer lived not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight.

Mwen p'ap kite moun k'ap twonpe moun rete lakay mwen. Moun k'ap bay manti p'ap rete kanpe devan mwen.

8 Early did I kill all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity.

Chak maten m'ap fini avèk tout mechan ki nan peyi a. Konsa, m'ap mete tout moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo deyò nan lavil Seyè a.
