Psalms 106
1 Praise JAH. Give thanks to Jehovah, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Mikafu Yehowa. Mida akpe na Yehowa, elabena eƒe dɔ me nyo, eye eƒe lɔlɔ̃ li ɖaa.
2 Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah, or fully declare all his praise?
Ame kae ate ŋu aɖe gbeƒã Yehowa ƒe nu dzɔatsu siwo wòwɔ alo akafui wòade go?
3 Blessed are those who uphold justice, who practice righteousness at all times.
Woayra ame siwo léa dzɔdzɔenyenye me ɖe asi, ame siwo wɔa nu si nyo la ɣe sia ɣi.
4 Remember me, Jehovah, with the favor that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,
O! Yehowa, ɖo ŋku dzinye ne èle wò dukɔ la nu vem, va kpe ɖe ŋunye ne èle wo ɖem,
5 that I may see the prosperity of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.
be nye hã makpɔ gome le wò ame tiatiawo ƒe dzidzedzekpɔkpɔ me, be makpɔ dzidzɔ kple wò dukɔ la, eye mawɔ ɖeka kple wò domenyinu la, akafu wò.
6 We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.
Míewɔ nu vɔ̃ abe mía fofowo ke ene; míewɔ nu tovo, eye míewɔ nu vɔ̃ɖi.
7 Our fathers did not understand your wonders in Egypt. They did not remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
Esi mía fofowo nɔ Egipte la, womebu wò nukunuwo ŋu o; womeɖo ŋku wò dɔmenyo gbogboawo dzi o, ke boŋ wodze aglã le ƒu la to, le Ƒu Dzĩ la to,
8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power known.
gake eɖe wo le eƒe ŋkɔ la ta, be wòana woanya eƒe ŋusẽ triakɔ la.
9 He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.
Eblu ɖe Ƒu Dzĩ la ta, eye wòmie; ale wòkplɔ wo to ƒugɔme abe tagba ƒuƒui ene.
10 He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
Eɖe wo tso futɔ la ƒe asi me, eye ketɔ la ƒe asimee wòxɔ wo le.
11 The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.
Tsi la ŋe tsyɔ wo yometilawo dzi, eye ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã metsi agbe o.
12 Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.
Tete woxɔ eƒe ŋugbedodowo dzi se, eye wodzi ha kafui.
13 They soon forgot his works. They did not wait for his counsel,
Kasia woŋlɔ nu si wòwɔ la be xoxo, eye womelala xɔ aɖaŋu tso egbɔ o.
14 but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.
Le gbea dzi la, wodzro nu vevie, eye le gbegbe la, wote Mawu kpɔ.
15 He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
Ale wòtsɔ nu si biam wole la na wo, gake eɖo dɔvɔ̃ ɖe wo dome.
16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, Jehovah's holy one.
Woʋã ŋu Mose kple Aron le asaɖa la me, ame si ŋuti wokɔ na Yehowa.
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
Anyigba ke nu mi Datan, eye wòɖi Abiram kple eyomedzelawo agbagbe.
18 A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked.
Dzo va fia wo yomedzelawo, eye dzo ƒe aɖewo fia ame vɔ̃ɖiawo.
19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped a molten image.
Wowɔ nyivi le Horeb to la gbɔ, eye wosubɔ legba si wowɔ kple ga.
20 Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.
Wotsɔ woƒe Ŋutikɔkɔe ɖɔli nyitsu si ɖua gbe.
21 They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt,
Woŋlɔ Mawu si ɖe wo la be, Mawu si wɔ nu gãwo na wo le Egipte
22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea.
kple dzesiwo le Hamnyigba dzi kple ŋɔdzinuwo le Ƒu Dzĩ la to.
23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn't destroy them.
Eya ta wògblɔ be, yele wo tsrɔ̃ ge. Ɖe Mose, eƒe ame tiatia la metsi tsitre ɖe gbagbãƒe la hexe mɔ na eƒe dziku helĩhelĩ la o la, anye ne etsrɔ̃ wo.
24 Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They did not believe his word,
Wodo vlo anyigba dzeani la, eye womexɔ eƒe ŋugbedodo dzi se o.
25 but murmured in their tents, and did not listen to Jehovah's voice.
Wolĩ liʋĩliʋĩ le woƒe agbadɔwo me, eye womeɖo to Yehowa o.
26 Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,
Eya ta wòdo eƒe asiwo ɖe dzi ka atam na wo be yele nana ge wo katã natsrɔ̃ ɖe gbea dzi,
27 and that he would make their offspring fall among the nations, and scatter them in the lands.
woƒe dzidzimeviwo atsi dukɔwo dome, eye yeakaka wo ɖe anyigbawo dzi.
28 They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
Wotsɔ Baal Peor ƒe kɔkuti ku kɔ na wo ɖokuiwo, eye woɖu nu siwo wotsɔ sa vɔ̃e na mawu siwo me agbe mele o.
29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.
Wotsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiawo do dɔmedzoe na Yehowa, eye dɔvɔ̃ gbã gboo ɖe wo dome.
30 Then Phinehas stood up, and executed judgment, so the plague was stopped.
Gake Finehas tsi tsitre hetso nya me, tete dɔvɔ̃ la nu tso.
31 That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.
Wobu esia dzɔdzɔenyenye nɛ hena dzidzime mavɔ siwo ava dzɔ.
32 They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;
Le Meriba tsiawo gbɔ, wodo dɔmedzoe na Yehowa, eye Mose kpɔ nya le woawo ta.
33 because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.
Elabena wodze aglã ɖe Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ ŋuti, eye nya vlowo ge le Mose nu.
34 They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them,
Wometsrɔ̃ ameawo abe ale si Yehowa de se na wo ene o,
35 but mixed themselves with the nations, and learned their works.
ke boŋ wotsaka kple dukɔwo, eye wosrɔ̃ woƒe kɔnyinyiwo.
36 They served their idols, which became a snare to them.
Wosubɔ woƒe legbawo, esi zu mɔ me woge ɖo.
37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.
Wotsɔ woƒe ŋutsuviwo kple woƒe nyɔnuviwo sa vɔe na gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo.
38 They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. The land was polluted with blood.
Wokɔ ʋu maɖifɔ ɖi, wo viŋutsuwo kple wo vinyɔnuwo ƒe ʋu, ame siwo wotsɔ sa vɔe na Kanaan legbawo, eye wotsɔ woƒe ʋu gblẽ kɔ ɖo na anyigba la.
39 Thus were they defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.
Woƒo ɖi wo ɖokuiwo to nu si wowɔ la me, eye to woƒe nuwɔnawo me, wotsɔ wo ɖokuiwo wɔ gbolowoe,
40 Therefore Jehovah burned with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.
eya ta Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe eƒe dukɔ ŋuti, eye wònyɔ ŋu eƒe domenyinu.
41 He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.
Etsɔ wo de asi na dukɔwo, eye woƒe futɔwo ɖu fia ɖe wo dzi.
42 Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.
Woƒe futɔwo te wo ɖe to, eye wotsɔ wo de woƒe ŋusẽ te.
43 Many times he delivered them, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.
Eɖe wo zi geɖe, gake woɖoe kplikpaa be yewoadze aglã, eye wovɔ le eme keŋkeŋ le woƒe nu vɔ̃ me.
44 Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.
Ke ekpɔ woƒe hiã la ɖa, esi wòse woƒe ɣlidodo;
45 He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
le wo ta, eɖo ŋku eƒe nubabla la dzi, eye wòɖe asi le eƒe tameɖoɖo ŋu le eƒe lɔlɔ̃ gã la ta.
46 He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.
Ena ame siwo katã ɖe aboyo wo la kpɔ nublanui na wo.
47 Save us, Jehovah, our God, gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise.
O! Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu, ɖe mí, eye nàƒo mía nu ƒu tso dukɔwo dome, be míada akpe na wò ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la, eye míaƒo adegbe le wò kafukafu ŋu.
48 Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. And let all the people say, "Amen." Praise JAH.
Woakafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la, tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me. Dukɔ blibo la nàgblɔ be, “Amen!” Mikafu Yehowa.
