< Yesaya 12 >
1 Le ɣe ma ɣi la, àgblɔ be, “Makafu wò, O! Yehowa, togbɔ be èdo dɔmedzoe ɖe ŋunye tsã hã la, wò dɔmedzoe nu yi, eye nèfa akɔ nam.
And in that day thou shall say, I will give thanks to thee, O Jehovah, for though thou were angry with me. Thine anger is turned away and thou comfort me.
2 Nyateƒe, Mawu nye nye xɔname. Maɖo dzi ɖe eŋu, eye nyemavɔ̃ o. Ɛ̃, Yehowae nye nye ŋusẽ kple nye hadzidzi, eye eyae zu nye xɔname
Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust, and will not be afraid, for Jehovah, even Jehovah, is my strength and song, and he has become my salvation.
3 Miadu tsi le xɔname ƒe vudowo me kple dzidzɔ.”
Therefore with joy ye shall draw water out of the wells of salvation.
4 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, àgblɔ be, “Mida akpe na Yehowa! Miyɔ eƒe ŋkɔ, miɖe gbeƒã eƒe ŋkɔ le xexemedukɔwo dome.
And in that day ye shall say, Give thanks to Jehovah. Call upon his name. Declare his doings among the peoples. Make mention that his name is exalted.
5 Miɖe gbeƒã Yehowa, elabena ewɔ nu dzɔatsuwo, miɖe gbeƒã eƒe kafukafu le xexea me katã.
Sing to Jehovah, for he has done excellent things. Let this be known in all the earth.
6 Mido ɣli, eye mitso aseye, mi ame siwo le Zion, elabena gãe nye Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ si le mia dome.”
Cry aloud and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion, for great in the midst of thee is the Holy One of Israel.
