Psalms 141
1 I have cried to the, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee.
David ƒe ha. O! Yehowa, mele yɔwòm, va gbɔnye kaba. Se nye gbe, ne meyɔ wò.
2 Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice.
Nye gbedodoɖa neva gbɔwò abe dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ ene, eye na be nye asi siwo medo ɖe dzi la, nanɔ na wò abe fiẽvɔsa ene.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips.
O! Yehowa, ɖo dzɔla nye nu ŋu, eye nɔ ŋudzɔ ɖe nye nuyi ƒe ʋɔtru ŋu.
4 Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins. With men that work iniquity: and I will not communicate with the choicest of them.
Mègana be woahe nye dzi ɖe nu vɔ̃ɖi ŋuti, be mayi gome kpɔ ge le nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔwɔ me kple ŋutsu, nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔlawo o, eye mègaɖe mɔ be maɖu woƒe nuɖuɖu viviwo o.
5 The just shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head. For my prayer also shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased:
Na ame dzɔdzɔe naƒom, enye dɔmenyo wòwɔ nam, na wòaka mo nam, enye ami wòsi ɖe ta nam. Nye ta magbe exɔxɔ o. Gake nye gbedodoɖa tsia tsitre ɖe ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe wɔnawo ŋu ɖaa,
6 Their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up. They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed:
woatutu woƒe dziɖulawo tso togbɛwo dzi aƒu agame, eye ame vɔ̃ɖiwo anya be megblɔ nye nyawo memie ɖe eteƒe.
7 As when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground: Our bones are scattered by the side of hell. (Sheol h7585)
Woagblɔ be, “Abe ale si ame ŋlɔa nu hedzoboa anyigbae ene la, nenemae woakaka míaƒe ƒuwoe ɖe yɔdowo nu.” (Sheol h7585)
8 But o to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul.
O! Aƒetɔ Yehowa, meda nye ŋkuwo ɖe dziwò, mewòe mebe ɖo, mègatsɔm na ku o.
9 Keep me from the snare, which they have laid for me, and from the stumblingblocks of them that work iniquity.
Ɖem le mɔ siwo wotre nam la me, tso mɔkli si nu tovo wɔlawo ɖo ɖi la me.
10 The wicked shall fall in his net: I am alone until I pass.
Na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo naɖo woawo ŋutɔ ƒe ɖɔwo me, ne matso eme ayi le dedinɔnɔ me.
