[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 the LORD, and highly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.
4 Dzidzime ɖeka akafu wò dɔwɔwɔwo na dzidzime bubu, eye woatu xo le wò nu dzɔatsuwo ŋu.
One generation shall laud thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

Of the glorious majesty of thine honour, and of thy wondrous works, will I meditate.

And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts; and I will declare thy greatness.
7 Woaɖu wò nyuiwɔwɔ gbogboawo ƒe azã, eye woadzi ha atso aseye le wò dzɔdzɔenyenye ŋuti.
They shall utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.
8 Yehowa nye amenuvela kple nublanuikpɔla; medoa dɔmedzoe kabakaba o, eye lɔlɔ̃ bɔ ɖe esi.
The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.
9 Yehowa nyoa dɔ me na ame sia ame, eye wòkpɔa nublanui na ame siwo katã wòwɔ.
The LORD 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 give thanks unto thee, O LORD; 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 speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;
12 ale be amewo katã nanya wò nuwɔwɔ dzɔatsuwo kple wò fiaɖuƒe ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe atsyɔ̃.
To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.

Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion [endureth] 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.
The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.
15 Ŋkuwo katã le wò asinu kpɔm, eye nèna nuɖuɖu wo le enaɣi.
The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.
16 Èʋu wò asiwo me, eye nètsɔ nu gbagbe ɖe sia ɖe ƒe nu si wòdi la nɛ.
Thou openest thine 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.
The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and gracious in all his works.
18 Yehowa tsɔ ɖe ame siwo yɔnɛ la gbɔ, ame siwo katã yɔnɛ le nyateƒe me.
The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
19 Ewɔa ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ la ƒe dzimedidiwo na wo, esea woƒe ɣlidodo, eye wòɖea wo.
He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him; he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
20 Yehowa kpɔa ame siwo katã lɔ̃nɛ la ta, gake atsrɔ̃ ame vɔ̃ɖiwo katã.
The LORD preserveth all them that love him; but all the wicked will he destroy.
21 Nye nu agblɔ Yehowa ƒe kafukafu. Nu gbagbe ɖe sia ɖe nekafu eƒe ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me.
My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD; and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
