Psalms 91
1 He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, Habitually lodges in the shade of the Mighty,
Ame si nɔ Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ƒe bebeƒe la agbɔ ɖe eme le Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la ƒe vɔvɔli te.
2 He is saying of YHWH, “My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,”
Magblɔ na Yehowa be, “Eyae nye nye sitsoƒe kple nye mɔ sesẽ, nye Mawu si ŋu meku ɖo.”
3 For He delivers you from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.
Vavã, aɖe wò le xevimɔtrela ƒe mɔ kple dɔvɔ̃ dziŋɔ me.
4 He covers you over with His pinion, And under His wings you trust, His truth [is] a shield and buckler.
Atsɔ eƒe fuwo atsyɔ dziwò, àkpɔ sitsoƒe le eƒe aʋala te, eye eƒe nuteƒewɔwɔ anye wò akpoxɔnu kple mɔxenu aƒo xlã wò.
5 You are not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flies by day,
Màvɔ̃ zãmeŋɔdzi alo aŋutrɔ si le ʋɔ lũm le ŋkeke me,
6 Of pestilence that walks in thick darkness, Of destruction that destroys at noon,
dɔvɔ̃ si le tsatsam le viviti me, alo dɔxɔleameŋu si le nu gblẽm le ŋdɔ la o.
7 One thousand fall at your side, And a myriad at your right hand, [But] it does not come near to you.
Akpe adze anyi ɖe axawò, eye akpe ewo ɖe wò nuɖusime, ke wò la, mate ɖe ŋuwò o.
8 But with your eyes you look, And you see the reward of the wicked,
Ɖeko nàkpɔe kple wò ŋkuwo, eye àkpɔ ale si woahe to na ame vɔ̃ɖiwoe.
9 (For You, O YHWH, [are] my refuge), You made the Most High your habitation.
Ne ètsɔ Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la, Yehowa, ame si nye nye sitsoƒe wɔ nɔwòƒee la,
10 Evil does not happen to you, And a plague does not come near your tent,
ekema dzɔgbevɔ̃e maɖi kpe wò o, eye gbegblẽ mate ɖe wò agbadɔ ŋu o,
11 For He charges His messengers for you, To keep you in all your ways,
elabena ade se na eƒe dɔlawo tso ŋutiwò, be woakpɔ tawò le wò mɔwo katã dzi.
12 On the hands they bear you up, Lest you strike your foot against a stone.
Woakɔ wò ɖe woƒe asiwo me, be màtsɔ wò afɔ axlã ɖe kpe aɖeke o.
13 You tread on lion and cobra, You trample young lion and dragon.
Àɖo afɔ dzata kple ƒli dzi, eye ànya avuzi le dzata dziŋɔ kple da vɔ̃ɖi dzi.
14 Because he has delighted in Me, I also deliver him—I set him on high, Because he has known My Name.
Yehowa be, “Maɖee, elabena elɔ̃m, madzɔ eŋu, elabena enya nye ŋkɔ.
15 He calls Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in distress, I deliver him, and honor him.
Ayɔm, eye matɔ nɛ; manɔ anyi kplii le xaxa me, maɖee, eye made bubu eŋuti.
16 I satisfy him with [the] length of [his] days, And I cause him to look on My salvation!
Matsɔ agbe didi aɖi ƒo nɛ, eye maɖe nye xɔxɔ afiae.”
