< Psalmowo 146 >
1 Mikafu Yehowa. O! luʋɔnye, kafu Yehowa.
Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.
2 Makafu Yehowa le nye agbemeŋkekewo katã me. Madzi kafukafuha na nye Mawu la, zi ale si mele agbe.
Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes:
3 Migaɖo dzi ɖe dziɖulawo ŋu o, eye migaka ɖe amegbetɔ kodzogbea, si mate ŋu axɔ na ame o la dzi o.
In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.
4 Ne woƒe gbɔgbɔ do go le wo me la, wogatrɔna zua kewɔ, gbe ma gbe ke woƒe ɖoɖo siwo katã wowɔ la zua tofloko.
His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.
5 Woayra ame si ƒe xɔnametɔ nye Yakob ƒe Mawu la, eye eƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ le Yehowa, eƒe Mawu la me.
Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God:
6 Eya ame si wɔ dziƒo kple anyigba, atsiaƒu kple nu siwo katã le eme, Yehowa nye nuteƒewɔla tegbetegbe.
Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.
7 Etsoa afia na ame siwo wote ɖe anyi, eye wònaa nuɖuɖu dɔwuitɔwo. Yehowae naa ablɔɖe gamenɔlawo.
Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered:
8 Yehowa ʋua ŋku na ŋkuagbãtɔwo, Yehowa fɔa ame siwo wote ɖe anyi la ɖe dzi, Yehowa lɔ̃a ame dzɔdzɔewo ƒe nya.
The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just.
9 Yehowa kpɔa amedzrowo ta, eye wònye tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo hã ta kpɔla. Ke etɔtɔa ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe mɔwo.
The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.
10 Yehowa le fia ɖum tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me. O! Zion, wò Mawu la aɖu fia le dzidzimewo katã me. Mikafu Yehowa.
The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.
