Psalmowo 135
1 Mikafu Yehowa. Mikafu Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ, mikafui, mi Yehowa ƒe dɔlawo.
Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh’s name! Praise him, you servants of Yahweh,
2 Mi ame siwo subɔna le Yehowa ƒe aƒe me, le míaƒe Mawu la ƒe xɔxɔnuwo.
you who stand in Yahweh’s house, in the courts of our God’s house.
3 Mikafu Yehowa, elabena Yehowa nyo; midzi ha na eƒe ŋkɔ, elabena esia vivina.
Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.
4 Elabena Yehowa tia Yakob be wòanye ye tɔ, eye wòtia Israel be wòanye yeƒe domenyinu xɔasi la.
For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.
5 Menya be Yehowa lolo, eye míaƒe Aƒetɔ la lolo wu mawuwo katã.
For I know that Yahweh is great, that 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.
Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas 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.
He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings with the rain. He brings the wind out of his treasuries.
8 Eƒo Egipte ƒe ŋgɔgbeviwo ƒu anyi; amegbetɔwo kple lãwo siaa ƒe ŋgɔgbeviwo.
He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal.
9 O! Egipte, edɔ eƒe dzesiwo kple nukunuwo ɖo ɖe mía dome, ɖe Farao kple eƒe dɔlawo katã ŋu.
He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.
10 Eƒo dukɔ geɖewo ƒu anyi, eye wòwu fia sesẽwo.
He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings—
11 Ewu Sixɔn, Amoritɔwo ƒe fia, Ɔg, Basantɔwo ƒe fia kple Kanaan fiawo katã,
Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan—
12 eye wòtsɔ woƒe anyigba wɔ domenyinu, na eƒe dukɔ Israel.
and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people.
13 O! Yehowa, wò ŋkɔ li tegbetegbe, o Yehowa, èxɔ ŋkɔ le dzidzimewo katã me.
Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations.
14 Elabena Yehowa atso afia na eƒe dukɔ, eye wòakpɔ nublanui na eƒe dɔlawo.
For Yahweh will judge his people and have compassion on his servants.
15 Dukɔwo ƒe legbawo nye klosalo kple sika, amegbetɔ ƒe asinudɔwɔwɔwo wonye.
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
16 Nu li na wo, gake womeƒoa nu o, ŋku li na wo gake womekpɔa nu o,
They have mouths, 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, neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18 Ame siwo wɔ wo la anɔ abe woawo ke ene, eye nenema kee nye ame siwo katã ɖoa dzi ɖe wo ŋu.
Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them.
19 O! Israel ƒe aƒe, mikafu Yehowa, O! Aron ƒe aƒe, mikafu Yehowa,
House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh!
20 O! Levi ƒe aƒe, mikafu Yehowa, eye mi ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ la, mikafu Yehowa.
House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who fear Yahweh, praise Yahweh!
21 Woakafu Yehowa tso Zion, eya ame si nɔ Yerusalem. Mikafu Yehowa!
Blessed be Yahweh from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
