Psalmowo 131

1 David ƒe Mɔzɔha. O! Yehowa, dada mele nye dzi me o, eye ŋku gã hã mele tanye o. Nyemetsɔa ɖeke le nya gãwo me loo, alo ƒoa ta ɖe nu siwo wɔ nuku nam akpa la me o,

Yahweh, I am not proud and I have not thought highly about (myself/the things that I have done). And I do not concern myself about things [that you have done] that are very big or very wonderful.

2 gake mena nye luʋɔ zi ɖoɖoe, heli kpoo abe ale si ɖevi si ɖi no la nɔa dadaa ƒe akɔnu ene, eye nye luʋɔ le abe ɖevi si ɖi no la ene.

Instead, I am calm and peaceful, like a [small] child who lies quietly in its mother’s arms [SIM]. In the same way, I am peaceful.

3 O! Israel, tsɔ wò mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe Yehowa dzi, tso fifia yi ɖase ɖe mavɔmavɔ me ke.

You [my fellow] Israelis, confidently expect that Yahweh [will do good things for you], now and forever!
