1 David ƒe kafukafuha. Mado wò ɖe dzi, nye Mawu, fia la. Makafu wò ŋkɔ tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me.
A Psalm of Praise. David’s. I will extol thee, my God, O King, and will bless thy Name, to times age-abiding and beyond:
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 praise thy Name, to times age-abiding and beyond.
3 Gãe nye Yehowa, eye eya koe dze na kafukafu, elabena ame aɖeke mate ŋu anya eƒe gãnyenye ƒe goglome o.
Great is Yahweh—and worthy to be heartily praised, And, his greatness, is unsearchable.
4 Dzidzime ɖeka akafu wò dɔwɔwɔwo na dzidzime bubu, eye woatu xo le wò nu dzɔatsuwo ŋu.
Generation unto generation, shall celebrate thy works, and, thy mighty deeds, shall they tell:
5 Woaƒo nu le wò gãnyenye ƒe atsyɔ̃ɖoɖo ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ŋuti, eye made ŋugble le wò dɔwɔwɔ wɔnukuwo ŋuti.
The splendour of the glory of thy majesty, shall they speak, and, thy wonders, will I utter.
6 Woaƒo nu le wò ŋɔdzidɔwɔwɔwo ƒe ŋusẽ ŋuti, eye maɖe gbeƒã wò nuwɔwɔ dzɔatsuwo.
And, the might of thy terrible acts, shall men speak, and, as for thy greatness, I will recount it.
7 Woaɖu wò nyuiwɔwɔ gbogboawo ƒe azã, eye woadzi ha atso aseye le wò dzɔdzɔenyenye ŋuti.
The memory of thy great goodness, shall men pour forth, and, thy righteousness, shall they shout aloud.
8 Yehowa nye amenuvela kple nublanuikpɔla; medoa dɔmedzoe kabakaba o, eye lɔlɔ̃ bɔ ɖe esi.
Gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh, —slow to anger, and of great lovingkindness.
9 Yehowa nyoa dɔ me na ame sia ame, eye wòkpɔa nublanui na ame siwo katã wòwɔ.
Good is Yahweh to all, and, his tender compassions, 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, O Yahweh, will give thanks unto thee, —and, thy men of lovingkindness, will bless thee:
11 Woaƒo nu le wò fiaɖuƒe la ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ŋu, eye woagblɔ nya tso wò ŋusẽ ŋuti,
The glory of thy kingdom, will they tell, —and, thy power, will they speak.
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 deeds, and the splendid glory of his kingdom.
13 Wò fiaɖuƒe la nye fiaɖuƒe mavɔ, eye wò fiaɖuɖu anɔ anyi le dzidzimewo katã me. Yehowa awɔ nuteƒe le eƒe ŋugbedodowo katã me, eye wòaɖe lɔlɔ̃ afia ame siwo katã wòwɔ.
Thy kingdom, is a kingdom of all ages, —and, thy dominion, is over generation after generation.
14 Yehowa léa ame siwo katã dze anyi la ɖe asi, eye wòfɔa ame siwo katã wobɔbɔ ɖe anyi la ɖe dzi.
Yahweh is ready to uphold all who are falling, and to raise all who are laid prostrate.
15 Ŋkuwo katã le wò asinu kpɔm, eye nèna nuɖuɖu wo le enaɣi.
The eyes of all, for thee, do wait, and, thou, givest them their food in its season.
16 Èʋu wò asiwo me, eye nètsɔ nu gbagbe ɖe sia ɖe ƒe nu si wòdi la nɛ.
Thou, openest thy hand, and fillest every living thing with gladness.
17 Yehowa nye dzɔdzɔetɔ le eƒe mɔwo katã dzi, eye wòlɔ̃a eƒe nu siwo katã wòwɔ.
Righteous is Yahweh 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.
Near is Yahweh to all who call upon him, —to all them who call upon him in faithfulness.
19 Ewɔa ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ la ƒe dzimedidiwo na wo, esea woƒe ɣlidodo, eye wòɖea wo.
The desire of them who revere him, will he fulfil, and, their cry, will he hear, and will save them.
20 Yehowa kpɔa ame siwo katã lɔ̃nɛ la ta, gake atsrɔ̃ ame vɔ̃ɖiwo katã.
Yahweh preserveth all who love him, but, all the lawless, 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.
The praise of Yahweh, my mouth shall speak, That all flesh may bless his holy Name, Unto times age-abiding and beyond.
