Psalmowo 108
1 Hadzidzi. David ƒe ha. O! Mawu, nye dzi le te goŋgoŋgoŋ. Madzi ha, aƒo saŋku kple nye luʋɔ blibo.
My heart is fixed, O God, I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.
2 Saŋku kple kasaŋku, minyɔ! Manyɔ fɔŋli.
Awake, psaltery and harp. I myself will awake right early.
3 O! Yehowa, makafu wò le dukɔwo dome, eye madzi ha le ŋuwò le anyigbadzitɔwo dome,
I will give thanks to thee, O Jehovah, among the peoples, and I will sing praises to thee among the nations.
4 elabena wò lɔlɔ̃ de blibo, hekɔ wu dziƒowo, eye wò nuteƒewɔwɔ yi ɖatɔ lilikpowo.
For thy loving kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is to the skies.
5 O! Mawu, woado wò ɖe dzi agbɔ dziƒowo ŋu, eye na wò ŋutikɔkɔe naxɔ anyigba blibo la dzi.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.
6 Ɖe mí, eye nàkpe ɖe mía ŋu kple wò nuɖusibɔ, be ame siwo nèlɔ̃ vevie la nakpɔ ɖeɖe.
That thy beloved may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and answer us.
7 Mawu ƒo nu tso eƒe kɔkɔeƒe la be, “Mama Sekem le dziɖuɖu me, eye madzidze Sukɔt Balime.
God has spoken in his holiness. I will exult. I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead nye tɔnye, Manase hã tɔnyee; nye gakukue nye Efraim, eye Yuda nye nye fiatikplɔ.
Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.
9 Moab nye nye tsiletɔkpo, matsɔ nye atokota aƒu gbe ɖe Edom dzi, eye mado dziɖuɖuɣli ɖe Filistia ŋu.”
Moab is my wash pot. Upon Edom I will cast my shoe. Over Philistia I will shout.
10 Ame ka akplɔm ayi du sesẽ la mee? Ame ka akplɔm ayi Edom?
Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
11 O! Mawu, ɖe menye wòe oa? Nu ka wɔ nègbe mí, eye mègadona kple míaƒe aʋakɔwo o?
Have thou not cast us off, O God? And thou go not forth, O God, with our armies.
12 Kpe ɖe mía ŋu ɖe míaƒe futɔwo ŋuti, elabena èna amegbetɔ ƒe kpekpeɖeŋu mele nemi hã me o.
Give us help against the adversary, for vain is the help of man.
13 Ne Mawu le mía dzi la, míaɖu dzi, eye wòafanya míaƒe futɔwo ɖe eƒe afɔ te.
Through God we shall do valiantly, for he it is who will tread down our adversaries.
