Psalms 61

1 Hear my cry, O Elohim; attend unto my prayer.

David ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Woadzii ɖe kasaŋku ŋu. Se nye ɣlidodo, O Mawu, eye nàlé to ɖe nye gbedodoɖa ŋu.

2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Meyɔ wò tso anyigba ƒe mlɔenu, meyɔ wò, esi nu te nye dzi ŋu belibelibeli; azɔ kplɔm yi ɖe agakpe si kɔ wum la dzi,

3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

elabena wòe nye nye sitsoƒe kple mɔ sesẽ, le futɔ la ta.

4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

Medi vevie be manɔ wò agbadɔ me tegbee, eye mabe ɖe wò aʋala ƒe fafaƒe. (Sela)

5 For thou, O Elohim, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

O! Mawu, èse nye adzɔgbeɖeɖewo, eye nètsɔ ame siwo vɔ̃a wò ŋkɔ la ƒe domenyinu nam.

6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.

Dzi fia la ƒe agbemeŋkekewo ɖe edzi nɛ, eƒe ƒewo nasɔ gbɔ be wòakpɔ dzidzime geɖewo.

7 He shall abide before Elohim for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

Neɖu fia le Mawu ŋkume tegbee, eye na wò lɔlɔ̃ kple nuteƒewɔwɔ nakpɔ eta.

8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Ekema madzi kafukafuha na wò ŋkɔ tegbee, eye maxe nye adzɔgbeɖefewo gbe sia gbe.
