Psalmowo 112

1 Mikafu Yehowa. Woayra ŋutsu si vɔ̃a Yehowa, eye wòkpɔa dzidzɔ vevie le eƒe sewo ŋu.

Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!

2 Viawo anye ŋusẽtɔwo le anyigba la dzi, eye woayra dzi dzɔdzɔetɔwo ƒe dzidzime.

Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.

3 Kesinɔnu kple nu nyuiwo le eƒe aƒe me, eye eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye nɔa anyi ɖikaa.

Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.

4 Le viviti me gɔ̃ hã la, kekeli klẽna na ame dzɔdzɔewo, nenema ke wònɔna na ame si vea ame nu, kpɔa nublanui, eye wòwɔa nu dzɔdzɔe.

Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.

5 Nyui ava na ame si nyoa dɔ me, doa nugbana faa, eye wòwɔa eƒe nuwo to mɔ dzɔdzɔe dzi.

Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.

6 Vavã, maʋã akpɔ o; woaɖo ŋku ame dzɔdzɔe dzi tegbee.

They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.

7 Mavɔ̃ na nya vɔ̃ sese o, eƒe dzi li ke, eye wòkana ɖe Yehowa dzi.

They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.

8 Mavɔ̃ naneke o, elabena dzi le eƒo; eye mlɔeba la, akpɔ eƒe futɔwo ta ɖa le dziɖuɖu me.

They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.

9 Ema eƒe kesinɔnuwo na ame dahewo fũu, eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye li tegbee, eye woakɔ eƒe dzo ɖe dzi bobobo le bubu me.

They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.

10 Ame vɔ̃ɖi akpɔe, eye dzi akui, aɖu aɖukli, avɔ le eme keŋkeŋkeŋ. Ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe dzimedidiwo azu tofloko.

The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.
