Alleluia. Praise you the name of the Lord; praise the Lord, [you his] servants,
2 Mi ame siwo subɔna le Yehowa ƒe aƒe me, le míaƒe Mawu la ƒe xɔxɔnuwo.
who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God.
3 Mikafu Yehowa, elabena Yehowa nyo; midzi ha na eƒe ŋkɔ, elabena esia vivina.
Praise you the Lord; for the Lord is good: sing praises to his name; for [it is] good.
4 Elabena Yehowa tia Yakob be wòanye ye tɔ, eye wòtia Israel be wòanye yeƒe domenyinu xɔasi la.
For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself, [and] Israel for his peculiar treasure.
5 Menya be Yehowa lolo, eye míaƒe Aƒetɔ la lolo wu mawuwo katã.
For I know that the Lord is great, and our Lord is above all gods;
6 Yehowa wɔa nu sia nu si dze eŋu le dziƒo kple anyigba, le atsiaƒuwo me kple woƒe gogloƒewo katã.
all that the Lord willed, he did in heaven, and on the earth, in the sea, and in all deeps.
7 Enaa lilikpo hona tso anyigba ƒe mlɔenu ke, edɔa dzikedzo be wòava kple tsidzadza, eye wòɖea yaƒoƒo ɖe go tso eƒe nudzraɖoƒewo.
Who brings up clouds from the extremity of the earth: he has made lightnings for the rain: he brings winds out of his treasures.

Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

11 Ewu Sixɔn, Amoritɔwo ƒe fia, Ɔg, Basantɔwo ƒe fia kple Kanaan fiawo katã,
Seon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Basan, and all the kingdoms of Chanaan:
12 eye wòtsɔ woƒe anyigba wɔ domenyinu, na eƒe dukɔ Israel.
and gave their land [for] an inheritance, an inheritance to Israel his people.
13 O! Yehowa, wò ŋkɔ li tegbetegbe, o Yehowa, èxɔ ŋkɔ le dzidzimewo katã me.
O Lord, your name [endures] for ever, and your memorial to all generations.
14 Elabena Yehowa atso afia na eƒe dukɔ, eye wòakpɔ nublanui na eƒe dɔlawo.
For the Lord shall judge his people, and comfort himself concerning his servants.
15 Dukɔwo ƒe legbawo nye klosalo kple sika, amegbetɔ ƒe asinudɔwɔwɔwo wonye.
The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the works of men's hands.
16 Nu li na wo, gake womeƒoa nu o, ŋku li na wo gake womekpɔa nu o,
They have a mouth, but they can’t speak; they have eyes, but they can’t see;
17 to li na wo, gake womesea nu loo, alo gbɔna to woƒe nu me o.
they have ears, but they can’t hear; for there is no breath in their mouth.

Let those who make them be made like to them; and all those who trust in them.

O house of Levi, bless you the Lord: you that fear the Lord, bless the Lord.

Blessed in Sion be the Lord, who dwells in Jerusalem.
