Psalmowo 111

1 Mikafu Yehowa. Mado Yehowa ɖe dzi kple nye dzi blibo le ame dzɔdzɔewo ƒe adaŋudeha me kple amehawo dome.

Alleluia. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and [in] the congregation.

2 Yehowa ƒe dɔwɔwɔwo lolo kpem; ame siwo wodoa dzidzɔ na la bua wo ŋuti.

The works of the Lord are great, sought out according to all his will.

3 Ŋutikɔkɔe kple atsyɔ̃ nye eƒe nuwɔwɔwo, eye eƒe dzɔdzɔenye li tegbee.

His work is [worthy of] thanksgiving and honour: and his righteousness endures for ever and ever.

4 Ena woɖo ŋku eƒe nukudɔwo dzi; Yehowa nye amenuvela kple nublanuikpɔla.

He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is merciful and compassionate.

5 Enaa nuɖuɖu ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ, eye wòɖoa ŋku eƒe nubabla dzi tegbetegbe.

He has given food to them that fear him: he will remember his covenant for ever.

6 Eɖe eƒe dɔwɔwɔwo ƒe ŋusẽ fia eƒe dukɔ la eye wòtsɔ dukɔ bubuwo ƒe anyigba na wo.

He has declared to his people the power of his works, to give them the inheritance of the heathen.

7 Eƒe asinudɔwɔwɔwo le eteƒe, eye wodzɔ; nenema ke woate ŋu aka ɖe eƒe sewo hã dzii,

The works of his hands are truth and judgement: all his commandments are sure:

8 elabena wole te tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me, eye wòde sewo le nuteƒewɔwɔ kple dzɔdzɔenyenye me.

established for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.

9 Eɖo ɖeɖe ɖi na eƒe dukɔ, eɖo eƒe nubabla anyi tegbee, eye eƒe ŋkɔ le kɔkɔe; ŋɔdzi hã le eŋu.

He sent redemption to his people: he commanded his covenant for ever: holy and fearful is his name.

10 Yehowa vɔvɔ̃e nye nunya ƒe gɔmedzedze, eye ame siwo katã léa eƒe sewo me ɖe asi la, gɔmesese nyui sua wo si. Eya tɔe nye kafukafu tegbee.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and all that act accordingly have a good understanding; his praise endures for ever and ever.
