At that time, you [people of Jerusalem] will sing [this song]: “Yahweh, we praise you! [Previously], you were angry with us, but you are not angry now and you have comforted us.
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
Amazingly, you [have come to] save us, [so] we will trust [in you] and not be afraid. Yahweh our God, you enable us to be strong; you are [the one about whom] we sing; you have rescued us [from our enemies].”
3 Miadu tsi le xɔname ƒe vudowo me kple dzidzɔ.”
You(pl), [his people], will greatly enjoy being saved like [MET] you enjoy drinking water from a fountain.
4 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, àgblɔ be, “Mida akpe na Yehowa! Miyɔ eƒe ŋkɔ, miɖe gbeƒã eƒe ŋkɔ le xexemedukɔwo dome.
At that time you [all] will say, “We should thank Yahweh! We should praise him [MTY]! We should tell [the people of all] the people-groups what he has done; we should enable them to know that he [MTY] is very great!
5 Miɖe gbeƒã Yehowa, elabena ewɔ nu dzɔatsuwo, miɖe gbeƒã eƒe kafukafu le xexea me katã.
We should sing to Yahweh, because he has done wonderful things. We should enable everyone in the world to know it!
6 Mido ɣli, eye mitso aseye, mi ame siwo le Zion, elabena gãe nye Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ si le mia dome.”
You people of Jerusalem, shout joyfully to praise Yahweh, because he is the great Holy One whom we Israeli [people worship], and he lives among us!”
