Psalmowo 146

1 Mikafu Yehowa. O! luʋɔnye, kafu Yehowa.

Praise Yahweh. Praise Yahweh, my soul.

2 Makafu Yehowa le nye agbemeŋkekewo katã me. Madzi kafukafuha na nye Mawu la, zi ale si mele agbe.

I give praise to Yahweh with all my life; I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

3 Migaɖo dzi ɖe dziɖulawo ŋu o, eye migaka ɖe amegbetɔ kodzogbea, si mate ŋu axɔ na ame o la dzi o.

Do not put your trust in princes or in mankind, 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.

When a person's life's breath stops, he returns to the ground; on that day his plans end.

5 Woayra ame si ƒe xɔnametɔ nye Yakob ƒe Mawu la, eye eƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ le Yehowa, eƒe Mawu la me.

Blessed is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh his God.

6 Eya ame si wɔ dziƒo kple anyigba, atsiaƒu kple nu siwo katã le eme, Yehowa nye nuteƒewɔla tegbetegbe.

Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; he observes trustworthiness forever.

7 Etsoa afia na ame siwo wote ɖe anyi, eye wònaa nuɖuɖu dɔwuitɔwo. Yehowae naa ablɔɖe gamenɔlawo.

He executes justice for the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners;

8 Yehowa ʋua ŋku na ŋkuagbãtɔwo, Yehowa fɔa ame siwo wote ɖe anyi la ɖe dzi, Yehowa lɔ̃a ame dzɔdzɔewo ƒe nya.

Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind; Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down; Yahweh loves the righteous people.

9 Yehowa kpɔa amedzrowo ta, eye wònye tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo hã ta kpɔla. Ke etɔtɔa ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe mɔwo.

Yahweh protects the foreigners in the land; he lifts up the fatherless and widow, but he opposes the wicked.

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.

Yahweh will reign forever, your God, Zion, for all generations. Praise Yahweh.
