Psalms 19
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. The heavens [are] recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The expanse [is] declaring.
David ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Dziƒo ɖe Mawu ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ɖe go, eye dziŋgɔli le gbeƒã ɖem eƒe asinudɔwo.
2 Day to day uttereth speech, And night to night sheweth knowledge.
Tso ŋkeke yi ŋkeke, wole Mawu ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe kafum, eye tso zã yi zã, wole eƒe gãnyenye ɖem fia.
3 There is no speech, and there are no words. Their voice hath not been heard.
Nuƒoƒo alo gbegbɔgblɔ aɖeke meli si me womese woƒe gbe le o.
4 Into all the earth hath their line gone forth, And to the end of the world their sayings, For the sun He placed a tent in them,
Woƒe gbe ɖina le anyigba dzi afi sia afi, eye woƒe nyawo dea xexea me ƒe mlɔenu ke gɔ̃ hã. Etu agbadɔ ɖe dziƒowo na ɣe,
5 And he, as a bridegroom, goeth out from his covering, He rejoiceth as a mighty one To run the path.
eye wòle abe ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃e le go dom tso eƒe agbadɔ me ene. Ele abe duƒula si le dzidzɔ kpɔm be wòalé eƒe mɔ atsɔ ene.
6 From the end of the heavens [is] his going out, And his revolution [is] unto their ends, And nothing is hid from his heat.
Ɣe dzena tso dziƒo ƒe go ɖeka dzi, eye wòzɔna yia go kemɛ dzi, naneke meɣla ɖe eƒe dzoxɔxɔ o.
7 The law of Jehovah [is] perfect, refreshing the soul, The testimonies of Jehovah [are] stedfast, Making wise the simple,
Yehowa ƒe se la de blibo, enaa agbegbɔgbɔ luʋɔ! Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo le eteƒe, eye wonana bometsilawo dzea nunya.
8 The precepts of Jehovah [are] upright, Rejoicing the heart, The command of Jehovah [is] pure, enlightening the eyes,
Yehowa ƒe mɔwo dzɔ, wonana dzi kpɔa dzidzɔ. Yehowa ƒe sewo me kɔ, wonana ame dzea nunya.
9 The fear of Jehovah [is] clean, standing to the age, The judgments of Jehovah [are] true, They have been righteous — together.
Yehowa ƒe sewo me kɔ; wonɔa anyi ɖaa. Yehowa ƒe sewo li ke sesĩe, eye ɖikeke aɖeke mele woƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye ŋu o.
10 They are more desirable than gold, Yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey, Even liquid honey of the comb.
Woxɔ asi wu sika kple sika nyuitɔ; wovivina wu anyitsi kple anyitsi si woɖe le anyito me.
11 Also — Thy servant is warned by them, 'In keeping them [is] a great reward.'
Wò sewo wotsɔ xlɔ̃ nu wò dɔlae, elabena viɖe gã geɖe le wo dzi wɔwɔ me.
12 Errors! who doth understand? From hidden ones declare me innocent,
Ame kae ate ŋu ade dzesi nu gbegblẽ si wòwɔ? Tsɔ nye vodada siwo metsɔ ɣla la kem.
13 Also — from presumptuous ones keep back Thy servant, Let them not rule over me, Then am I perfect, And declared innocent of much transgression,
Ɖe wò dɔla tso lɔlɔ̃nuwɔwɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃wo hã me; womaɖu dzinye akpɔ o. Ekema mazu fɔɖiɖi manɔŋutɔ, eye ŋutinye akɔ tso vodada gã me.
14 Let the sayings of my mouth, And the meditation of my heart, Be for a pleasing thing before Thee, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer!
Na be nye numenyawo kple nye dzi ƒe ŋugbledede nadze ŋuwò, O! Yehowa, nye Agakpe kple nye Xɔnametɔ.
