Sing ye to Him — sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all His wonders.

Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.

He hath remembered to the age His covenant, The word He commanded to a thousand generations,
9 eyae nye nu si wòbla kple Abraham kple atam si wòka na Isak.
That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
10 Eɖo kpe edzi na Yakob abe sedede ene, eye na Israel abe nubabla mavɔ ene be,
And doth establish it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel — a covenant age-during,
11 “Wòe matsɔ Kanaanyigba la na, abe wò domenyinu ene.”
Saying, 'To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,'
12 Ke esi wonye ame ʋɛ aɖewo ko, womesɔ gbɔ o, eye wonye amedzrowo le anyigba dzi la,
In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.
13 wotsa tso dukɔ me yi dukɔ me, tso fiaɖuƒe ɖeka me yi bubu me.
And they go up and down, from nation unto nation, From a kingdom unto another people.
14 Meɖe mɔ be ame aɖeke nate wo ɖe anyi o, le wo ta, wòka mo na fiawo be,
He hath not suffered any to oppress them And He reproveth for their sakes kings.
15 “Migaka asi nye amesiaminawo ŋu o, eye migawɔ nu vevi nye nyagblɔɖilawo o.”
'Strike not against Mine anointed, And to My prophets do not evil.'

He hath sent before them a man, For a servant hath Joseph been sold.
18 Wode kunyowu afɔ nɛ, wode abi eŋu, eye wotsɔ gakɔsɔkɔsɔ de kɔ nɛ,
They have afflicted with fetters his feet, Iron hath entered his soul,
19 va se ɖe esime nya si wògblɔ ɖi la va eme, eye va se ɖe esime Yehowa ƒe nya naɖo kpe edzi, be nya si wògblɔ la nye nyateƒe.
Till the time of the coming of His word The saying of Jehovah hath tried him.

The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the peoples, and draweth him out.

And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.

And it consumeth every herb in their land, And it consumeth the fruit of their ground.

And He smiteth every first-born in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,

And He giveth to them the lands of nations, And the labour of peoples they possess,
45 Ale be woalé eƒe ɖoɖowo me ɖe asi, eye woawɔ eƒe sewo dzi. Mikafu Yehowa.
That they may observe His statutes, And His laws may keep. Praise ye Jehovah!
