< Psalms 25 >
1 A Psalme of David. Unto thee, O Lord, lift I vp my soule.
David ƒe ha. O! Yehowa, wòe mekɔ nye luʋɔ ɖe dzi na.
2 My God, I trust in thee: let me not be confounded: let not mine enemies reioyce ouer mee.
O! Nye Mawu, ŋuwòe meɖo dzi ɖo. Mègana ŋu nakpem, alo nàɖe mɔ nye futɔwo naɖu dzinye o.
3 So all that hope in thee, shall not be ashamed: but let them be confounded, that transgresse without cause.
Ame si tsɔ eƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe dziwò la, ŋu makpee akpɔ gbeɖe o; gake ŋu akpe ame siwo nye vivimenuwɔlawo.
4 Shew me thy waies, O Lord, and teache me thy paths.
O! Yehowa, fia wò mɔwo kple wò toƒewom,
5 Leade me foorth in thy trueth, and teache me: for thou art the God of my saluation: in thee doe I trust all the day.
kplɔm le wò nyateƒe la me, eye nàfia num, elabena wòe nye nye Mawu kple nye Ɖela, eye nye mɔkpɔkpɔ le mewò ŋkeke blibo la katã.
6 Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies, and thy louing kindnesse: for they haue beene for euer.
O! Yehowa, ɖo ŋku wò lɔlɔ̃ kple wò nublanuikpɔkpɔ sɔgbɔ la dzi, elabena woli tso blema ke.
7 Remember not the sinnes of my youth, nor my rebellions, but according to thy kindenesse remember thou me, euen for thy goodnesse sake, O Lord.
O! Yehowa, mègaɖo ŋku nye ɖekakpuimenu vɔ̃wo kple nye aglãdzemɔwo dzi o; ke boŋ ɖo ŋku dzinye le wò lɔlɔ̃ la ta, elabena nyuiwɔwɔ le mewò.
8 Gracious and righteous is the Lord: therefore will he teache sinners in the way.
Yehowa nyo, eye wòwɔa nu dzɔdzɔe, eya ta efiaa eƒe mɔ nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo.
9 Them that be meeke, will hee guide in iudgement, and teach the humble his way.
Ekplɔa ɖokuibɔbɔlawo to nu dzɔdzɔe wɔwɔ me, eye wòfiaa eƒe mɔ wo.
10 All the pathes of the Lord are mercie and trueth vnto such as keepe his couenant and his testimonies.
Yehowa ƒe mɔwo katã nye lɔlɔ̃ kple nuteƒewɔwɔ na ame siwo léa eƒe nubablamenyawo ɖe asi.
11 For thy Names sake, O Lord, be merciful vnto mine iniquitie, for it is great.
O! Yehowa, togbɔ be nye dzidada sɔ gbɔ ale gbegbe hã la, tsɔ wo kem le wò ŋkɔ la ta.
12 What man is he that feareth the Lord? him wil he teache the way that hee shall chuse.
Ekema ame kawoe nye ŋutsu ma siwo vɔ̃a Yehowa? Afia nu wo le mɔ si woato la dzi.
13 His soule shall dwell at ease, and his seede shall inherite the land.
Woakpɔ dzidzedze le woƒe agbemeŋkekewo me, eye woƒe dzidzimeviwo anyi anyigba la ƒe dome.
14 The secrete of the Lord is reueiled to them, that feare him: and his couenant to giue them vnderstanding.
Yehowa gblɔa nya ɣaɣlawo na ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ, eye wòɖea eƒe nubabla fiaa wo.
15 Mine eyes are euer towarde the Lord: for he will bring my feete out of the net.
Nye ŋkuwo le Yehowa ŋu ɖaa, elabena eya koe aɖe nye afɔ le mɔ me.
16 Turne thy face vnto mee, and haue mercie vpon me: for I am desolate and poore.
Trɔ ɖe ŋunye ne nàve nunye, elabena metsi akogo, eye hiã tum.
17 The sorowes of mine heart are enlarged: drawe me out of my troubles.
Nye dzi ƒe nuxaxawo do gã ɖe edzi, na vovom tso nye vevesesewo me.
18 Looke vpon mine affliction and my trauel, and forgiue all my sinnes.
Nye kɔ nàkpɔ nye nuxaxa kple nye vevesese ɖa, eye nàɖe nye nu vɔ̃wo katã ɖa.
19 Beholde mine enemies, for they are manie, and they hate me with cruell hatred.
Kpɔ ale si nye futɔwo dzi ɖe edzii ɖa, eye nàkpɔ ale si wolé fum ɖikaɖikae ɖa!
20 Keepe my soule, and deliuer me: let me not be confounded, for I trust in thee.
Kpɔ nye agbe ta, eye nàɖem; megana ŋu nakpem o, elabena mewòe mebe ɖo.
21 Let mine vprightnes and equitie preserue me: for mine hope is in thee.
Nuteƒewɔwɔ kple dzɔdzɔenyenye nedzɔ ŋunye, elabena nye mɔkpɔkpɔ le mewò.
22 Deliuer Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
O! Mawu, ɖe Israel tso woƒe xaxawo katã me.
