Psalms 147
1 Praise ye the Lord, for it is good to sing vnto our God: for it is a pleasant thing, and praise is comely.
Mikafu Yehowa. Aleke mehenyoe be woadzi kafukafuha na míaƒe Mawu la o! Aleke wòhevivina, eye wòdze be woakafui!
2 The Lord doth builde vp Ierusalem, and gather together the dispersed of Israel.
Yehowa gbugbɔ tso Yerusalem du la, eye wòkplɔ Israel ƒe aboyomewo gbɔe.
3 He healeth those that are broken in heart, and bindeth vp their sores.
Eda gbe le ame siwo ƒe dzi gbã la ŋu, eye wòbla woƒe abiwo na wo.
4 He counteth the nomber of the starres, and calleth them all by their names.
Eyae ɖo xexlẽme na ɣletiviwo, eye wòyɔa ɖe sia ɖe ƒe ŋkɔ.
5 Great is our Lord, and great is his power: his wisdome is infinite.
Gãe nye míaƒe Aƒetɔ la, eye eƒe ŋusẽ tri akɔ ŋutɔ, seɖoƒe meli na eƒe gɔmesese o.
6 The Lord relieueth the meeke, and abaseth the wicked to the ground.
Yehowa kpɔa ame siwo bɔbɔa wo ɖokui la dzi, ke etsɔ ame vɔ̃ɖi ya xlã ɖe anyigba.
7 Sing vnto the Lord with prayse: sing vpon the harpe vnto our God,
Midzi ha na Yehowa kple akpedada, eye miƒo ha na míaƒe Mawu la kple kasaŋku.
8 Which couereth the heauen with cloudes, and prepareth raine for the earth, and maketh the grasse to growe vpon the mountaines:
Etsɔa lilikpo xea yamee, eye wònana tsi dzana ɖe anyigba la dzi hewɔnɛ be gbe miena ɖe togbɛwo dzi.
9 Which giueth to beasts their foode, and to the yong rauens that crie.
Enaa nuɖuɖu nyiwo kple akpaviã siwo le xɔxlɔ̃m nɛ.
10 He hath not pleasure in the strength of an horse, neither delighteth he in the legs of man.
Eƒe dzidzɔ mele sɔ ƒe ŋusẽ me loo, alo amegbetɔ ƒe afɔ me o;
11 But the Lord deliteth in them that feare him, and attende vpon his mercie.
ke boŋ Yehowa ƒe dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ le ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ la me, ame siwo tsɔa woƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ dana ɖe eƒe lɔlɔ̃ si meʋãna o la dzi.
12 Prayse the Lord, O Ierusalem: prayse thy God, O Zion.
O! Yerusalem, do Yehowa ɖe dzi, O! Zion, kafu wò Mawu la,
13 For he hath made the barres of thy gates strong, and hath blessed thy children within thee.
elabena eyae glã wò agbowo ƒe gametiwo, eye wòyra ame siwo le mewò.
14 He setteth peace in thy borders, and satisfieth thee with the floure of wheate.
Ena ŋutifafa le wò liƒowo dzi, eye wòtsɔ mɔlu nyuitɔ ɖi ƒo na wòe.
15 He sendeth foorth his commandement vpon earth, and his worde runneth very swiftly.
Eɖo eƒe sedede ɖe anyigba la dzi, eye eƒe nya kaka kple du ɖo teƒewo.
16 He giueth snowe like wooll, and scattereth the hoare frost like ashes.
Ekaka tsikpe abe ɖetifu ene, eye wòkaka afu abe dzofi ene.
17 He casteth foorth his yce like morsels: who can abide the colde thereof?
Eɖo kpetsi ɖe anyigba abe kpekui ene. Ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe wò ya fafɛ la nu?
18 He sendeth his worde and melteth them: he causeth his winde to blowe, and the waters flowe.
Edɔ eƒe nya ɖa, eye wòlolo wo. Ede ŋusẽ eƒe yawo me, eye tsiwo de asi sisi me.
19 He sheweth his word vnto Iaakob, his statutes and his iudgements vnto Israel.
Eɖe eƒe nya fia Yakob eye wòɖe eƒe sewo kple sededewo fia Israel.
20 He hath not dealt so with euery nation, neither haue they knowen his iudgements. Prayse ye the Lord.
Mewɔ esia na dukɔ bubu aɖeke o, eye womenya eƒe sewo o. Mikafu Yehowa.
