< Psalmowo 149 >
1 Mikafu Yehowa. Midzi ha yeye na Yehowa, midzi eƒe kafukafuha le ame kɔkɔewo ƒe asaɖa me.
Hallelujah! Sing to the LORD a new song— His praise in the assembly of the godly.
2 Israel nekpɔ dzidzɔ le woƒe Wɔla me, Zionviwo netso aseye ɖe woƒe fia la ŋu.
Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.
3 Wonekafu eƒe ŋkɔ kple ɣeɖuɖu, eye woneƒo ha nɛ kple asiʋuiwo kple kasaŋku.
Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.
4 Elabena Yehowa do dzidzɔ ɖe eƒe dukɔ ŋu, eye wòtsɔ ɖeɖe ɖɔ na ame gblɔewo.
For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation.
5 Ame kɔkɔewo nekpɔ dzidzɔ le eƒe bubu me, eye woadzi ha kple dzidzɔ le woƒe abawo dzi.
Let the saints exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.
6 Mawu kafukafu nenɔ woƒe nu me, eye wòanye yi nuevee anɔ woƒe asiwo me,
May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a double-edged sword in their hands,
7 ne woatsɔ abia hlɔ̃ dukɔwo, eye woatsɔe ahe toe na amewo,
to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
8 ne woabla woƒe fiawo kple gakɔsɔkɔsɔ, eye woade kunyowu woƒe bubumewo,
to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with shackles of iron,
9 ne woawɔ fɔ si wobu wo, woŋlɔ da ɖi ɖe wo ŋu la dzi. Esia nye eƒe ame kɔkɔewo katã ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe. Mikafu Yehowa.
to execute the judgment written against them. This honor is for all His saints. Hallelujah!
