< Psalms 115 >

1 Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name be the glory, for your loving kindness and for your faithfulness.
Menye míawoe o, o Yehowa, menye míawoe o, ke boŋ ŋutikɔkɔe la nye wò ŋkɔ tɔ, le wò lɔlɔ̃ kple nuteƒewɔwɔ ta.
2 Why should the nations say, "Where is their God, now?"
Nu ka ta dukɔwo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Afi ka woƒe Mawu la le?”
3 But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
Míaƒe Mawu la le dziƒo, eye nu sia nu si dze eŋu lae wòwɔna,
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
gake woawo ya ƒe legbawo nye klosalo kple sika, eye amegbetɔ ƒe asiwoe wɔ wo,
5 They have mouths, but they do not speak. They have eyes, but they do not see.
eya ta nu li na wo, gake womate ŋu aƒo nu o, ŋku li na wo, gake womate ŋu akpɔ nu o;
6 They have ears, but they do not hear. They have noses, but they do not smell.
to li na wo, gake womesea nu o, ŋɔti li na wo, gake womeʋẽa nu sena o;
7 They have hands, but they do not feel. They have feet, but they do not walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
asi li na wo, gake wometea nu kpɔna o, afɔ li na wo, gake womate ŋu azɔ loo, alo aƒo nu to ve me o.
8 Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
Ame siwo wɔ wo la, anɔ abe woawo ke ene, eye nenema kee nye ame siwo tsɔ woƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe wo dzi.
9 Israel, trust in the LORD. He is their help and their shield.
O! Israel ƒe aƒe, ɖo dzi ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eyae nye wò kpeɖeŋutɔ kple akpoxɔnu.
10 House of Aaron, trust in the LORD. He is their help and their shield.
O! Aron ƒe aƒe, ɖo dzi ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eyae nye wò kpeɖeŋutɔ kple akpoxɔnu.
11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD. He is their help and their shield.
Mi ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ, miɖo dzi ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eyae nye miaƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ kple akpoxɔnu.
12 The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.
Yehowa ɖo ŋku mía dzi, eya ta ayra mí. Ayra Israel ƒe aƒe la, ayra Aron ƒe aƒe la,
13 He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.
ayra ame siwo vɔ̃a Yehowa, suewo kple gãwo siaa.
14 May the LORD increase you more and more, you and your children.
Yehowa nana miadzi ɖe edzi, miawo ŋutɔwo kple mia viwo.
15 Blessed are you by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
Yehowa neyra mi, eya dziƒo kple anyigba Wɔla.
16 The heavens are the heavens of the LORD; but the earth has he given to the descendants of Adam.
Dziƒo kɔkɔtɔ nye Yehowa, Wɔla la tɔ, ke etsɔ anyigba na amegbetɔ.
17 The dead do not praise the LORD, neither any who go down into silence;
Menye ame kukuwoe kafua Yehowa o, menye ame siwo zi ɖoɖoe le aʋlimee o;
18 But we will bless the LORD, from this time forth and forevermore. Praise the LORD.
ke boŋ mí ame siwo doa Yehowa ɖe dzi fifia kple ɖaasi lae. Mikafu Yehowa.
