A Psalm of praise. Of David. I will extol thee, my God, O King, and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
2 Makafu wò gbe sia gbe, eye mado wò ŋkɔ ɖe dzi tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me.
Every day will I bless thee, and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
3 Gãe nye Yehowa, eye eya koe dze na kafukafu, elabena ame aɖeke mate ŋu anya eƒe gãnyenye ƒe goglome o.
Great is Jehovah, and exceedingly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

One generation shall laud thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

I will speak of the glorious splendour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

And they shall tell of the might of thy terrible acts; and thy great deeds will I declare.

They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

Jehovah is gracious and merciful; slow to anger, and of great loving-kindness.

Jehovah is good to all; and his tender mercies are over all his works.
10 O! Yehowa, ame siwo katã nèwɔ la akafu wò, eye wò ame kɔkɔewo ado wò ɖe dzi.
All thy works shall praise thee, Jehovah, and thy saints shall bless thee.
11 Woaƒo nu le wò fiaɖuƒe la ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ŋu, eye woagblɔ nya tso wò ŋusẽ ŋuti,
They shall tell of the glory of thy kingdom, and speak of thy power;
12 ale be amewo katã nanya wò nuwɔwɔ dzɔatsuwo kple wò fiaɖuƒe ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe atsyɔ̃.
To make known to the children of men his mighty acts, and the glorious splendour of his kingdom.

Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages, and thy dominion is throughout all generations.
14 Yehowa léa ame siwo katã dze anyi la ɖe asi, eye wòfɔa ame siwo katã wobɔbɔ ɖe anyi la ɖe dzi.
Jehovah upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all that are bowed down.

The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their food in its season.

Thou openest thy hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
17 Yehowa nye dzɔdzɔetɔ le eƒe mɔwo katã dzi, eye wòlɔ̃a eƒe nu siwo katã wòwɔ.
Jehovah is righteous in all his ways, and kind in all his works.
18 Yehowa tsɔ ɖe ame siwo yɔnɛ la gbɔ, ame siwo katã yɔnɛ le nyateƒe me.
Jehovah is nigh unto all that call upon him, unto all that call upon him in truth.
19 Ewɔa ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ la ƒe dzimedidiwo na wo, esea woƒe ɣlidodo, eye wòɖea wo.
He fulfilleth the desire of them that fear him; he heareth their cry, and saveth them.
20 Yehowa kpɔa ame siwo katã lɔ̃nɛ la ta, gake atsrɔ̃ ame vɔ̃ɖiwo katã.
Jehovah keepeth all that love him, and all the wicked will he destroy.

My mouth shall speak the praise of Jehovah; and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
