Psalms 113

1 Praise Yahweh! You people who serve Yahweh, praise him! Praise (him/his name)!

Lwanj pou Seyè a! Nou menm k'ap sèvi Seyè a, fè lwanj li!

2 Yahweh should be praised now and forever!

Se pou nou nonmen non l' depi koulye a epi pou tout tan tout tan.

3 People who live in the east and people who live in the west, everyone, should praise Yahweh [MTY]!

Depi kote solèy leve jouk kote solèy kouche, se pou yo fè lwanj Seyè a!

4 Yahweh rules [MTY] over all the nations, and high in the heavens he shows that his glory is very great.

Seyè a dominen sou tout nasyon yo. Pouvwa li moute pi wo pase syèl la.

5 There is no one [RHQ] who is like Yahweh, our God, who lives/sits/rules in the highest heaven,

Pa gen tankou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Li chita anwo nèt.

6 and looks far down through the heavens and sees the [people on] the earth.

Li bese je l' pou l' wè sa k'ap pase nan syèl la ak sou latè a.

7 [Sometimes] he lifts poor people up [so that they no longer sit in] the dirt; he helps needy [people so that they no longer sit on] heaps of ashes

Li bay pòv malere a men pou fè l' leve soti nan pousyè a. Li wete l' nan mizè.

8 and causes them to [be honored] by sitting next to princes, the sons of the kings [who rule] their people.

Li fè l' chita menm kote ak chèf yo, wi, sou menm tab ak chèf pèp li a.

9 He also enables women who have no children to have a family; he causes them to be happy mothers. Praise Yahweh!

Li bay fanm ki pa ka fè pitit la yon fanmi. Li fè kè l' kontan lakay li, li ba l' pitit. Lwanj pou Seyè a!
