Psalms 115
1 Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth.
Menye míawoe o, o Yehowa, menye míawoe o, ke boŋ ŋutikɔkɔe la nye wò ŋkɔ tɔ, le wò lɔlɔ̃ kple nuteƒewɔwɔ ta.
2 Why do the nations say, 'Where, pray, [is] their God.
Nu ka ta dukɔwo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Afi ka woƒe Mawu la le?”
3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done.
Míaƒe Mawu la le dziƒo, eye nu sia nu si dze eŋu lae wòwɔna,
4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands,
gake woawo ya ƒe legbawo nye klosalo kple sika, eye amegbetɔ ƒe asiwoe wɔ wo,
5 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
eya ta nu li na wo, gake womate ŋu aƒo nu o, ŋku li na wo, gake womate ŋu akpɔ nu o;
6 Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not,
to li na wo, gake womesea nu o, ŋɔti li na wo, gake womeʋẽa nu sena o;
7 Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not;
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 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting 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 O Israel, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
O! Israel ƒe aƒe, ɖo dzi ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eyae nye wò kpeɖeŋutɔ kple akpoxɔnu.
10 O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
O! Aron ƒe aƒe, ɖo dzi ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eyae nye wò kpeɖeŋutɔ kple akpoxɔnu.
11 Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
Mi ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ, miɖo dzi ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eyae nye miaƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ kple akpoxɔnu.
12 Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth 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 blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great.
ayra ame siwo vɔ̃a Yehowa, suewo kple gãwo siaa.
14 Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons.
Yehowa nana miadzi ɖe edzi, miawo ŋutɔwo kple mia viwo.
15 Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,
Yehowa neyra mi, eya dziƒo kple anyigba Wɔla.
16 The heavens — the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men,
Dziƒo kɔkɔtɔ nye Yehowa, Wɔla la tɔ, ke etsɔ anyigba na amegbetɔ.
17 The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence.
Menye ame kukuwoe kafua Yehowa o, menye ame siwo zi ɖoɖoe le aʋlimee o;
18 And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah!
ke boŋ mí ame siwo doa Yehowa ɖe dzi fifia kple ɖaasi lae. Mikafu Yehowa.
