Psalms 112

1 Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!

Mikafu Yehowa. Woayra ŋutsu si vɔ̃a Yehowa, eye wòkpɔa dzidzɔ vevie le eƒe sewo ŋu.

2 Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.

Viawo anye ŋusẽtɔwo le anyigba la dzi, eye woayra dzi dzɔdzɔetɔwo ƒe dzidzime.

3 Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.

Kesinɔnu kple nu nyuiwo le eƒe aƒe me, eye eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye nɔa anyi ɖikaa.

4 Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.

Le viviti me gɔ̃ hã la, kekeli klẽna na ame dzɔdzɔewo, nenema ke wònɔna na ame si vea ame nu, kpɔa nublanui, eye wòwɔa nu dzɔdzɔe.

5 Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.

Nyui ava na ame si nyoa dɔ me, doa nugbana faa, eye wòwɔa eƒe nuwo to mɔ dzɔdzɔe dzi.

6 They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.

Vavã, maʋã akpɔ o; woaɖo ŋku ame dzɔdzɔe dzi tegbee.

7 They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.

Mavɔ̃ na nya vɔ̃ sese o, eƒe dzi li ke, eye wòkana ɖe Yehowa dzi.

8 They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.

Mavɔ̃ naneke o, elabena dzi le eƒo; eye mlɔeba la, akpɔ eƒe futɔwo ta ɖa le dziɖuɖu me.

9 They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.

Ema eƒe kesinɔnuwo na ame dahewo fũu, eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye li tegbee, eye woakɔ eƒe dzo ɖe dzi bobobo le bubu me.

10 The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.

Ame vɔ̃ɖi akpɔe, eye dzi akui, aɖu aɖukli, avɔ le eme keŋkeŋkeŋ. Ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe dzimedidiwo azu tofloko.
