Psalms 60
1 To the Overseer. — 'Concerning the Lily of Testimony,' a secret treasure of David, to teach, in his striving with Aram-Naharaim, and with Aram-Zobah, and Joab turneth back and smiteth Edom in the valley of Salt — twelve thousand. O God, Thou hadst cast us off, Thou hadst broken us — hadst been angry! — Thou dost turn back to us.
David ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Woadzii ɖe “Nubabla ƒe Dzogbenya” ƒe gbeɖiɖi nu. David kpa nufiameha sia esi wòwɔ aʋa kple Aram Naharaim kple Aram Zobah, kpe ɖe esi Yoab trɔ gbɔ tso aʋa le Dze Balime, afi si wòwu Edomtɔ akpe wuieve le la ŋu. O! Mawu, ègbe mí, èti kpo dze mía dzi, eye nèdo dɔmedzoe ɖe mía ŋu, eya ta gbugbɔ mí ɖo te!
2 Thou hast caused the land to tremble, Thou hast broken it, Heal its breaches, for it hath moved.
Èʋuʋu anyigba la, eye nèfee wòle nuvo, eya ta gatre eƒe gbagbãƒeawo, elabena ele ʋuʋum.
3 Thou hast shewn Thy people a hard thing, Thou hast caused us to drink wine of trembling.
Èna ɣeyiɣi sesẽwo tu wò dukɔ la, eye nèna wain mí míeno mu hele yiyim sɔgɔsɔgɔsɔgɔ.
4 Thou hast given to those fearing thee an ensign. To be lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. (Selah)
Ke hena ame siwo vɔ̃a wò la, èkɔ aflaga dzi be wòanye akpoxɔnu ɖe woƒe aŋutrɔ ŋu. (Sela)
5 That Thy beloved ones may be drawn out, Save [with] Thy right hand, and answer us.
Xɔ na mí, eye nàɖe mí kple wò nuɖusi, be ame siwo nèlɔ̃ la nakpɔ xɔxɔ.
6 God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult — I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,
Mawu ƒo nu tso eƒe kɔkɔeƒe la be; “Le dziɖuɖu me, mama Sekem, eye madzidze Sukɔt Balime hã.
7 Mine [is] Gilead, and mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,
Gilead nye tɔnye, Manase hã tɔnyee. Nye gakukue nye Efraim, eye Yuda nye nye fiatikplɔ.
8 Moab [is] my pot for washing, over Edom I cast my shoe, Shout, concerning me, O Philistia.
Moab nye nye asiklɔgba, meɖe nye tokota ƒu gbe ɖe Edom dzi, eye medo dziɖuɖuɣli ɖe Filistia ta.”
9 Who doth bring me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who hath led me unto Edom?
Ame ka akplɔm ayi du si ŋu woɖo gli sesẽ ƒo xlãe la me? Ame ka akplɔm ayi Edom?
10 Is it not Thou, O God? hast Thou cast us off? And dost Thou not go forth, O God, with our hosts!
O! Mawu, ɖe menye wòe o la, wò ame si gbe mí, eye mègadona kple míaƒe aʋakɔwo lae oa?
11 Give to us help from adversity, And vain [is] the deliverance of man.
Kpe ɖe mía ŋu, ɖe míaƒe futɔwo ŋuti, elabena amegbetɔ ƒe kpekpeɖeŋu mele ɖeke me o.
12 In God we do mightily, And He treadeth down our adversaries!
To Mawu dzi, míaɖu dzi, eye míafanya míaƒe futɔwo ɖe anyigba.
