Psalmowo 10
1 O! Yehowa, nu ka ta nèle adzɔge ʋĩi ɖo? Nu ka ta nèɣla ɖokuiwò le xaxaɣiwo ɖo?
Lord, whi hast thou go fer awei? thou dispisist `in couenable tymes in tribulacioun.
2 Ame vɔ̃ɖi dadala he hiãtɔ ƒu anyi, ke wògena ɖe mɔ si wòtre da ɖi la me.
While the wickid is proud, the pore man is brent; thei ben taken in the counsels, bi whiche thei thenken.
3 Nu siwo eƒe dzi dina la, egblɔnɛ adegbeƒotɔe; eyraa ŋuklẽlawo, eye wòɖea alɔme le Yehowa ŋu.
Forwhi the synnere is preisid in the desiris of his soule; and the wickid is blessid.
4 Ame vɔ̃ɖi la media eƒe mɔ o, le dada viviwo ta, le eƒe ŋugblededewo katã me la, meɖoa ŋku Mawu dzi o.
The synnere `wraththide the Lord; vp the multitude of his ire he schal not seke.
5 Eƒe mɔwo dzea edzi nɛ nyuie ɣe sia ɣi, edoa eɖokui ɖe dzi, wò sewo didi tso egbɔ; eye wòɖoa hehe ɖe eƒe futɔwo ta.
God is not in his siyt; hise weies ben defoulid in al tyme. God, thi domes ben takun awei fro his face; he schal be lord of alle hise enemyes.
6 Egblɔna na eɖokui be, “Naneke maʋuʋum o, makpɔ dzidzɔ ɣe sia ɣi, eye nyemage ɖe dzɔgbevɔ̃e me akpɔ o.”
For he seide in his herte, Y schal not be moued, fro generacioun in to generacioun without yuel.
7 Fiƒode, alakpa kple ŋɔdzidodo yɔ eƒe nu me fũu, eye gbegblẽ kple nu vɔ̃ɖi le eƒe aɖe te.
`Whos mouth is ful of cursyng, and of bitternesse, and of gyle; trauel and sorewe is vndur his tunge.
8 Edea xa ɖe kɔƒewo xa; ewu ame maɖifɔwo le xame, eye wòtsa ŋu na ame si wòalé le bebeme.
He sittith in aspies with ryche men in priuytees; to sle the innocent man.
9 Edea xa ɖe ɣaɣlɛƒe abe dzatae be ɖe ave xa ene; ale be wòalé amemanɔsitɔ; eléa amemanɔsitɔ, eye wòhea wo ɖe eƒe ɖɔ me dzonae.
Hise iyen biholden on a pore man; he settith aspies in hid place, as a lioun in his denne. He settith aspies, for to rauysche a pore man; for to rauysche a pore man, while he drawith the pore man.
10 Etoa ƒu ɖe lãme na ame siwo wòlé, woƒe mo tsyɔa zi, eye womuna dzea anyi le eƒe ŋusẽ te.
In his snare he schal make meke the pore man; he schal bowe hym silf, and schal falle doun, whanne he hath be lord of pore men.
11 Egblɔna na eɖokui be, “Mawu ŋlɔ be; etsɔ nu tsyɔ eƒe mo, eye mele nu kpɔm o.”
For he seide in his herte, God hath foryete; he hath turned awei his face, that he se not in to the ende.
12 Tso, Yehowa! O! Mawu, kɔ wò abɔ dzi. Mègaŋlɔ hiãtɔ be o.
Lord God, rise thou vp, and thin hond be enhaunsid; foryete thou not pore men.
13 Nu ka ta ame vɔ̃ɖi la le alɔme ɖem le Mawu ŋuti ɖo? Nu ka ta wògblɔna na eɖokui be, “Mayɔm be mana akɔnta o” ɖo?
For what thing terride the wickid man God to wraththe? for he seide in his herte, God schal not seke.
14 Ke wò, O! Mawu, koe kpɔa dzɔgbevɔ̃e kple vevesese; èbua eŋuti, eye asiwò me wole. Ame si le fukpekpe me la, tsɔa eɖokui dea asi na wò; elabena wòe nye xɔnametɔ na tsyɔ̃eviwo.
Thou seest, for thou biholdist trauel and sorewe; that thou take hem in to thin hondis. The pore man is left to thee; thou schalt be an helpere to the fadirles and modirles.
15 Ŋe abɔ na ame vɔ̃ɖi kple nu tovo wɔla; yɔe ne wòana akɔnta tso nu vɔ̃ɖi siwo wòwɔ ame aɖeke mekpɔe o la ŋuti.
Al to-breke thou the arme of the synnere, and yuel willid; his synne schal be souyt, and it schal not be foundun.
16 Yehowae nye fia tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me; dukɔwo atsrɔ̃ ɖa le eƒe anyigba dzi.
The Lord schal regne with outen ende, and in to the world of world; folkis, ye schulen perische fro the lond of hym.
17 O! Yehowa, èse hiãtɔwo ƒe didi; ède dzi ƒo na wo, eye nèɖo to woƒe ɣlidodo.
The Lord hath herd the desir of pore men; thin eere hath herd the makyng redi of her herte.
18 Èʋli tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ame siwo wote ɖe anyi la ta, ale be amegbetɔ si nye anyi la magado ŋɔdzi na amewo azɔ o.
To deme for the modirles `and meke; that a man `leie to no more to `magnyfie hym silf on erthe.
