< Psalms 85 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. You have accepted, O YHWH, Your land, You have turned [to] the captivity of Jacob.
Korah ƒe viwo ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. O! Yehowa, èɖe amenuveve fia wò anyigba; ègaɖo Yakob ƒe nunyonamewo te.
2 You have carried away the iniquity of Your people, You have covered all their sin. (Selah)
Ètsɔ wò dukɔ la ƒe vodada kee, eye nètsyɔ nu woƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã dzi. (Sela)
3 You have gathered up all Your wrath, You have turned back from the fierceness of Your anger.
Èɖe asi le wò dzikudodo helĩhelĩ ŋuti eye nèdzudzɔ dɔmedzoe kaɖikaɖi dodo.
4 Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, And make void Your anger with us.
O! Mawu, míaƒe Ɖela, gaɖo mí te, míaƒe nu meganɔ dzi kum na wò o.
5 Are You angry against us for all time? Do You draw out Your anger To generation and generation?
Ɖe nàdo dɔmedzoe ɖe mía ŋu ɖikaa? Ɖe nàdidi wò dɔmedzoe la wòazɔ ato dzidzimewo katã mea?
6 Do You not turn back? You revive us, And Your people rejoice in You.
Màgagbɔ agbe mí, be wò dukɔ nàkpɔ dzidzɔ ɖe ŋuwò oa?
7 Show us, O YHWH, your kindness, And You give to us Your salvation.
O! Yehowa, ɖe wò lɔlɔ̃ si meʋãna o la fia mí, eye nàna wò xɔname mí.
8 I hear what God, YHWH, speaks, For He speaks peace to His people, And to His saints, and they do not turn back to folly.
Maɖo to ase nya si Yehowa Mawu agblɔ; edo ŋutifafa ƒe ŋugbe na eƒe dukɔ, eƒe ame kɔkɔewo, gake ɖeko mègana woatrɔ ayi bometsitsi gbɔ o.
9 Surely His salvation [is] near to those fearing Him, That glory may dwell in our land.
Vavã eƒe ɖeɖe tsɔ ɖe ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ la gbɔ, ale be eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe nanɔ míaƒe anyigba dzi.
10 Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,
Lɔlɔ̃ kple nuteƒewɔwɔ do go wo nɔewo, eye dzɔdzɔenyenye kple ŋutifafa gbugbɔ nu na wo nɔewo.
11 Truth springs up from the earth, And righteousness looks out from the heavens,
Nuteƒewɔwɔ mie tso anyigba me, eye dzɔdzɔenyenye do mo ɖa kpɔ anyigba tso dziƒo.
12 YHWH also gives that which is good, And our land gives its increase.
Yehowa ana nu si nyo la mí vavã, eye míaƒe anyigba atse eƒe ku.
13 Righteousness goes before Him, And makes a way for His footsteps!
Dzɔdzɔenyenye le eŋgɔ, eye wòle mɔ tam na eƒe afɔtoƒewo.
