shame, But thy servant shall rejoice.
28 Yo mèt ban m' madichon. Men, ou menm, w'ap ban m' benediksyon. Se pou moun ki pa vle wè m' yo wont. Men, mwen menm k'ap sèvi ou la, se pou m' gen kè kontan.

29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with dishonor, And let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.
29 Se pou moun ki pa vle wè m' yo wont, se pou dezonè tonbe sou yo.

30 I will give great thanks unto Jehovah with my mouth; Yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
30 M'ap louvri bouch mwen tout lajè pou m' di Seyè a mèsi. M'ap fè lwanj li lè tout pèp la reyini,

31 For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, To save him from them that judge his soul.
31 paske li pran defans pòv malere a, li delivre l' anba men moun ki te kondannen l' yo.

Sòm 110

1 ¶ A Psalm of David. Jehovah saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
1 ¶ Se yon sòm David. Seyè a pale ak wa a, chèf mwen an, li di: -Chita la sou bò dwat mwen, jouk tan mwen fè lènmi ou yo tounen yon ti ban pou lonje pye ou.

2 Jehovah will send forth the rod of thy strength out of Zion: Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
2 Seyè a va fè ou dominen sou peyi ki lòt bò fwontyè peyi Siyon. Li di ou: -Gouvènen sou tout lènmi ou yo.

3 Thy people offer themselves willingly In the day of thy power, in holy array: Out of the womb of the morning Thou hast the dew of thy youth.
3 Jou w'ap pare pou konbat lènmi ou yo, pèp ou a va prese vin ba ou konkou. Tankou lawouze nan granmaten, jenn gason ou yo va vin jwenn ou sou mòn ki apa pou Bondye a.

4 Jehovah hath sworn, and will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek.

5 ¶ The Lord at thy right hand Will strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
5 ¶ Seyè a kanpe sou bò dwat ou. Lè l' ankòlè l'ap krabinen wa yo.

6 He will judge among the nations, He will fill the places with dead bodies; He will strike through the head in many countries.
6 L'ap jije nasyon yo, l'ap anpile kadav sou kadav, l'ap kraze chèf yo toupatou sou latè.

7 He will drink of the brook in the way: Therefore will he lift up the head.
7 Wa a ap bwè dlo larivyè k'ap koule bò wout la. Se poutèt sa li p'ap janm bese tèt devan lènmi l' yo.
