Psalms 147
1 Praise ye Jah! For [it is] good to praise our God, For pleasant — comely [is] praise.
Mikafu Yehowa. Aleke mehenyoe be woadzi kafukafuha na míaƒe Mawu la o! Aleke wòhevivina, eye wòdze be woakafui!
2 Building Jerusalem [is] Jehovah, The driven away of Israel He gathereth.
Yehowa gbugbɔ tso Yerusalem du la, eye wòkplɔ Israel ƒe aboyomewo gbɔe.
3 Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs.
Eda gbe le ame siwo ƒe dzi gbã la ŋu, eye wòbla woƒe abiwo na wo.
4 Appointing the number of the stars, To all them He giveth names.
Eyae ɖo xexlẽme na ɣletiviwo, eye wòyɔa ɖe sia ɖe ƒe ŋkɔ.
5 Great [is] our Lord, and abundant in power, Of His understanding there is no narration.
Gãe nye míaƒe Aƒetɔ la, eye eƒe ŋusẽ tri akɔ ŋutɔ, seɖoƒe meli na eƒe gɔmesese o.
6 Jehovah is causing the meek to stand, Making low the wicked unto the earth.
Yehowa kpɔa ame siwo bɔbɔa wo ɖokui la dzi, ke etsɔ ame vɔ̃ɖi ya xlã ɖe anyigba.
7 Answer ye to Jehovah with thanksgiving, Sing ye to our God with a harp.
Midzi ha na Yehowa kple akpedada, eye miƒo ha na míaƒe Mawu la kple kasaŋku.
8 Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing for the earth rain, Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains,
Etsɔa lilikpo xea yamee, eye wònana tsi dzana ɖe anyigba la dzi hewɔnɛ be gbe miena ɖe togbɛwo dzi.
9 Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.
Enaa nuɖuɖu nyiwo kple akpaviã siwo le xɔxlɔ̃m nɛ.
10 Not in the might of the horse doth He delight, Not in the legs of a man is He pleased.
Eƒe dzidzɔ mele sɔ ƒe ŋusẽ me loo, alo amegbetɔ ƒe afɔ me o;
11 Jehovah is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness.
ke boŋ Yehowa ƒe dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ le ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ la me, ame siwo tsɔa woƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ dana ɖe eƒe lɔlɔ̃ si meʋãna o la dzi.
12 Glorify, O Jerusalem, Jehovah, Praise thy God, O Zion.
O! Yerusalem, do Yehowa ɖe dzi, O! Zion, kafu wò Mawu la,
13 For He did strengthen the bars of thy gates, He hath blessed thy sons in thy midst.
elabena eyae glã wò agbowo ƒe gametiwo, eye wòyra ame siwo le mewò.
14 Who is making thy border peace, [With] the fat of wheat He satisfieth Thee.
Ena ŋutifafa le wò liƒowo dzi, eye wòtsɔ mɔlu nyuitɔ ɖi ƒo na wòe.
15 Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, Very speedily doth His word run.
Eɖo eƒe sedede ɖe anyigba la dzi, eye eƒe nya kaka kple du ɖo teƒewo.
16 Who is giving snow like wool, Hoar-frost as ashes He scattereth.
Ekaka tsikpe abe ɖetifu ene, eye wòkaka afu abe dzofi ene.
17 Casting forth His ice like morsels, Before His cold who doth stand?
Eɖo kpetsi ɖe anyigba abe kpekui ene. Ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe wò ya fafɛ la nu?
18 He sendeth forth His word and melteth them, He causeth His wind to blow — the waters flow.
Edɔ eƒe nya ɖa, eye wòlolo wo. Ede ŋusẽ eƒe yawo me, eye tsiwo de asi sisi me.
19 Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel.
Eɖe eƒe nya fia Yakob eye wòɖe eƒe sewo kple sededewo fia Israel.
20 He hath not done so to any nation, As to judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye Jah!
Mewɔ esia na dukɔ bubu aɖeke o, eye womenya eƒe sewo o. Mikafu Yehowa.
