< Psalms 123 >

1 A Song of the Ascents. Unto Thee I have lifted up mine eyes, O dweller in the heavens.
Mɔzɔha. Mewu mo dzi na wò, wò ame si ƒe fiazikpui le dziƒo.
2 Lo, as eyes of men-servants [Are] unto the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maid-servant [Are] unto the hand of her mistress, So [are] our eyes unto Jehovah our God, Till that He doth favour us.
Abe ale si kluviwo kpɔa woƒe aƒetɔ ƒe asinu kple kosiviwo ƒe ŋku nɔa woƒe aƒenɔ ƒe asinu kpɔmii ene la, nenemae míele Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ƒe asinu kpɔmii, va se ɖe esime wòakpɔ nublanui na mí.
3 Favour us, O Jehovah, favour us, For greatly have we been filled with contempt,
O! Yehowa, kpɔ nublanui na mí, O! Kpɔ míaƒe nublanui, elabena míenɔ te ɖe vlododo nu eteƒe didi.
4 Greatly hath our soul been filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!
Míetsɔ dadalawo ƒe alɔmeɖeɖe gbogboawo, eye míenɔ te ɖe ɖokuiŋudzelawo ƒe vlodoame gbogboawo nu eteƒe didi.
