Chronicles I 16
1 So they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tabernacle which David pitched for it; and they offered whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings before God.
Ale wotsɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la yi Agbadɔ si David tu nɛ la me. Israel kplɔlawo sa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ le Mawu ŋkume.
2 And David finished offering up whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings, and blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
Esi David sa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ vɔ la, eyra ameawo le Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ me
3 And he divided to every man of Israel (both men and women), to [every] man one baker's loaf, and a cake.
eye wòtsɔ abolo, lãkɔ kple waintsetsebolo na Israelvi ɖe sia ɖe, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa.
4 And he appointed before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, Levites to minister [and] lift up the voice, and to give thanks and praise the Lord God of Israel:
Etia Levitɔ aɖewo be woanɔ nublaɖaka la ŋgɔ anɔ Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la kafum, anɔ akpe dam nɛ eye woanɔ eƒe yayra biam ɖe amewo dzi madzudzɔmadzudzɔe. Ame siwo wode dɔ sia asi na la woe nye:
5 Asaph [was] the chief, and next to him Zacharias, Jeiel, Semiramoth, and Jeiel, Mattathias, Eliab, and Banaeas, and Abdedom: and Jeiel sounding with musical instruments, lutes [and] harps, and Asaph with cymbals:
Asaf, ameawo ƒe kplɔla, eyae ƒoa gakogoe. Eƒe hadɔwɔlawoe nye: Zekaria, Yeiel, Semiramɔt, Yehiel, Matitia, Eliab, Benaya, Obed Edom kple Yeiel. Woawoe ƒoa saŋkuwo kple kasaŋkuwo.
6 and Banaeas and Oziel the priests [sounding] continually with trumpets before the ark of the covenant of God in that day.
Nunɔla Benaya kple Nunɔla Yahaziel kua kpẽ le nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ gbe sia gbe.
7 Then David first gave orders to praise the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
Ɣe ma ɣie David dze hadzilawo ŋu dɔ wɔwɔ gɔme le Agbadɔ la me be woadzi akpedaha na Yehowa. Ame si nɔ hadzilawo nue nye Asaf.
8 Song. Give thanks to the Lord, call upon him by his name, make known his designs amongst the people.
Wodzi ha be: Mida akpe na Yehowa Miyɔ eƒe ŋkɔ eye miɖe gbeƒã nu siwo wòwɔ la le dukɔwo dome.
9 Sing [songs] to him, and sing hymns to him, relate to all [people] his wonderful deeds, which the Lord has wrought.
Midzi ha nɛ, midzi kafukafuha nɛ, Miɖe gbeƒã eƒe nukunuwɔwɔwo;
10 Praise his holy name, the heart that seeks his pleasure shall rejoice.
Miƒo adegbe le eƒe ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la ŋu, mina ame siwo dia Yehowa la ƒe dzi natso aseye.
11 Seek the Lord and be strong, seek his face continually.
Midi Yehowa, mibia eƒe ŋusẽ, Midi eƒe ŋkume ɖaa.
12 Remember his wonderful works which he has wrought, his wonders, and the judgements of his mouth;
Miɖo ŋku nukunu siwo wòwɔ, eƒe dzesiwo kple eƒe ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃wo dzi.
13 [you] seed of Israel his servants, [you] seed of Jacob his chosen ones.
O Israel, eƒe dɔla ƒe dzidzimeviwo, O Yakob ƒe viwo, ame siwo wòtia.
14 He [is] the Lord our God; his judgements [are] in all the earth.
Eyae nye Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu! Eƒe ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ xɔ anyigba la katã dzi.
15 Let us remember his covenant for ever, his word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
Eɖoa ŋku eƒe nubabla kple se siwo wòde na dzidzime akpewo la dzi ɖaa,
16 which he covenanted with Abraham, and his oath [sworn] to Isaac.
Eƒe nu si wòbla kple Abraham, kple atam si wòka na Isak la dzi.
17 He confirmed it to Jacob for an ordinance, to Israel [as] an everlasting covenant,
Eɖo kpe edzi na Yakob Abe sedede ene eye na Israel abe nubabla mavɔ ene be:
18 saying, To you will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance:
“Wòe matsɔ Kanaanyigba la na, abe wò domenyinu ene!”
19 when they were few in number, when they were but little, and lived as strangers in it;
Esi wonye ame ʋɛ aɖewo ko, Womesɔ gbɔ o eye wonye amedzrowo le anyigba dzi la,
20 and went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.
Esime wotsa tso dukɔ me yi dukɔ me Tso fiaɖuƒe ɖeka me yi bubu me la,
21 He suffered not a man to oppress them, and he reproved kings for their sakes,
Yehowa meɖe mɔ be ame aɖeke nate wo ɖe anyi o Eka mo na fiawo le wo ta
22 saying, Touch not my anointed ones, and deal not wrongfully with my prophets.
Mawu gblɔ na fia mawo be, “Migaka asi nye amesiaminawo o eye migawɔ nuvevi nye nyagblɔɖilawo o.”
23 Sing you to the Lord, all the earth; proclaim his salvation from day to day.
Oo, anyigba, midzi ha na Yehowa, Miɖe gbeƒã eƒe xɔxɔ le dukɔwo dome gbe sia gbe,
24 Declare amongst the nations his glory, his wondrous deeds amongst all peoples.
Miɖe eƒe Ŋutikɔkɔefia le dukɔwo dome kple eƒe nukudɔwo fia le anyigbadzitɔwo katã dome.
25 For the Lord [is] great, and greatly to be praised: he [is] to be feared above all gods.
Elabena Yehowa lolo eye wòdze kafukafu ŋutɔ; ele be woavɔ̃e wu mawuwo katã.
26 For all the gods of the nations [are] idols; but our God made the heavens.
Dukɔwo ƒe mawuwo nye legbawo. Ke Yehowae wɔ dziƒowo.
27 Glory and praise [are] in his presence; strength and rejoicing [are] in his place.
Atsyɔ̃ kple gãnyenye le eŋgɔ eye ŋusẽ kple ŋutikɔkɔe le eƒe kɔkɔeƒe la me.
28 Give to the Lord, you families of the nations, give to the Lord glory and strength.
O mi dukɔwo ƒe ƒomewo, mitsɔ bubu kple ŋusẽ na Yehowa.
29 Give to the Lord the glory [belonging] to his name: take gifts and offer [them] before him; and worship the Lord in his holy courts.
Ɛ̃, mitsɔ ŋutikɔkɔe si dze eƒe ŋkɔ la nɛ. Mido ɖe eŋkume kple nunana. Misubɔ Yehowa le eƒe kɔkɔenyenye ƒe atyɔ̃ me.
30 Let the whole earth fear before him; let the earth be established, and not be moved.
Mi anyigbawo katã, midzo nyanyanya le eŋkume. Eɖo xexea gɔme anyi goŋgoŋgoŋ, mate ŋu aʋã o.
31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; and let them say amongst the nations, The Lord reigns.
Dziƒowo, mitso aseye, anyigba nedzɔ dzi. Wonegblɔ le dukɔwo dome be, “Yehowae le fia ɖum.”
32 The sea with its fullness shall resound and the tree of the field, and all things in it.
Atsiaƒu kple emenuwo katã neɖe gbe eye gbegbe kple emenuwo katã netso aseye!
33 Then shall the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord, for he is come to judge the earth.
Ekema avemetiwo katã adzi ha Woadzi ha kple dzidzɔ le Yehowa ŋkume, Elabena egbɔna be yeadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu anyigba.
34 Give thanks to the Lord, for [it is] good, for his mercy [is] for ever.
Mida akpe na Yehowa elabena eƒe dɔme nyo Eye eƒe lɔlɔ̃ li ɖaa.
35 And say you, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us, and rescue us from amongst the heathen, that we may praise your holy name, and glory in your praises.
Mido ɣli be, “Oo Mawu, mia Ɖela, ɖe mí, Ƒo mía nu ƒu eye nàɖe mí tso dukɔwo ƒe asi me. Be míada akpe na wò ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la, Be míadzɔ dzi le wò kafukafu me.”
36 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting and to everlasting: And all the people shall say, Amen. So they praised the Lord.
Woakafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la Tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me. Tete ameawo katã xɔ ɖe edzi be, “Amen, mikafu Yehowa.”
37 And they left there Asaph and his brethren before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to minister before the ark continually, according to the service of each day: from day to day.
David tia Asaf kple nɔvia Levitɔwo be woawɔ subɔsubɔdɔ ɣe sia ɣi le Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ eye woawɔ nu sia nu si hiã na wɔwɔ la gbe sia gbe.
38 And Abdedom and his brethren [were] sixty and eight; and Abdedom the son of Idithun, and Osa, [were] to be doorkeepers.
Ame siwo wode dɔ sia asi na la, woe nye: Obed Edom, Yedutun ƒe vi, Hosa kple wo nɔvi blaade-vɔ-enyi, ame siwo nye agbonudzɔlawo.
39 And [they appointed] Sadoc the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place in Gabaon,
Wogawɔa Yehowa ƒe Agbadɔ xoxo si nɔ Gibeon to la dzi la ŋu dɔ. David gble Nunɔla Zadok kple Nunɔla bubuawo ɖi be woasubɔ Yehowa le afi ma.
40 to offer up whole burnt offerings continually morning and evening, and according to all things written in the law of the Lord, which he commanded the children of Israel by Moses the servant of God.
Wosa numevɔ na Yehowa ŋdi sia ŋdi, fiẽ sia fiẽ le numevɔsamlekpui la dzi abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Israel ene.
41 And with him [were] Aeman and Idithun, and the rest chosen out by name to praise the Lord, for his mercy [endures] for ever.
David gatia Heman kple Yedutun kple ame bubu aɖewo, ame siwo ŋkɔwo wode dzesi la be woada akpe na Yehowa le eƒe lɔlɔ̃ kple amenuveve si li ɖaa la ta.
42 And with them [there were] trumpets and cymbals to sound aloud, and musical instruments for the songs of God: and the sons of Idithun [were] at the gate.
Heman kple Yedutun kua woƒe kpẽwo eye woƒoa woƒe gakogoewo kpena ɖe hadzidzi ŋu eye kafukafu dea dzi na Yehowa bobobo. Wotia Yedutun ƒe viwo wozu agbonudzɔlawo.
43 And all the people went every one to his home: and David returned to bless his house.
Esi aseyetsotso la wu enu eye ame sia ame trɔ yi eƒe aƒe me la, David hã trɔ yi eƒe aƒe me eye wòyra eƒe aƒemetɔwo.
