Psalms 52
1 “To the chief musician, a Maskil of David, When Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Achimelech.” What vauntest thou thyself of wickedness, O mighty man? the kindness of God endureth all the time.
David ƒe nufiameha na hɛnɔ la. Ekpa ha sia esi Edomtɔ, Doeg yi ɖagblɔ na Saul be, “David yi ɖe Ahimelek ƒe aƒe me.” Nu ka ta nètsɔ nu vɔ̃ɖi le adegbe ƒom, wò kalẽtɔ? Nu ka wɔ nèle adegbe ƒom ŋkeke blibo la, wò ame si nye ŋunyɔnu le Mawu ƒe ŋkume?
2 Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs, like a sharpened razor, thou worker of deceit.
Wò aɖe le gbegblẽ ɖom; èle abe hɛ ɖaɖɛ ene, wò alakpatɔ.
3 Thou lovest evil more than good; falsehood more than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
Èlɔ̃ vɔ̃ wu nyui, èlɔ̃ alakpa wu nyateƒetoto. (Sela)
4 Thou lovest all words of destruction, the tongue of deceit.
O! Wò alakpaɖe, èlɔ̃ nya gbegblẽwo sɔŋ ko!
5 [Therefore] God will also destroy thee for ever: he will take thee away, and pluck thee out of his tent, and root thee out of the land of life. (Selah)
Vavã, Mawu hã aƒu wò anyi ɖe gbegblẽ mavɔ me. Mawu ahe wò ado goe tso wò agbadɔ me, aho wò kple ke tso agbagbeawo ƒe anyigba dzi. (Sela)
6 And the righteous shall see it, and they will be afraid, and laugh concerning him:
Ame dzɔdzɔewo akpɔe, eye woavɔ̃; woakoe ahagblɔ be,
7 “Lo, this is the man that made not God his fortress; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, relied proudly on his mischievous wickedness.”
“Kpɔ ɖa, ŋutsu si metsɔ Mawu wɔ eƒe mɔ sesẽ o, ke boŋ wòtsɔ eƒe dzi ɖo eƒe kesinɔnu gbogboawo ŋu, eye wòkpɔ ŋusẽ hegblẽ ame bubuwo dome lae nye esi!”
8 But I am like a green olive-tree in the house of God: I trust in the kindness of God for ever and ever.
Ke nye la, mele abe amiti si le tsetsem le Mawu ƒe aƒe me la ene. Meɖo dzi ɖe Mawu ƒe lɔlɔ̃ si meʋãna o la ŋu tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me.
9 I will thank thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name, for [it is] good, before thy pious ones.
Makafu wò tegbee le nu si nèwɔ la ta; matsɔ nye mɔkpɔkpɔ ade wò ŋkɔ me, elabena wò ŋkɔ nyo. Makafu wò le wò ame kɔkɔewo ŋkume.
