le m li passage a ki sa mwen gwen ladanm.... English Translation Please....

Correct spelling: Lè m li pasaj sa, kisa mwen jwenn ladan l?

Translation:
Lè m li pasaj sa, -When I read this chapter,

ki sa mwen jwenn ladan l? - what do I get from it?

(This sounds like it's spoken from someone who's just read verses from the bible and he's about to give a sermon or something.)
