< Psalmowo 149 >
1 Mikafu Yehowa. Midzi ha yeye na Yehowa, midzi eƒe kafukafuha le ame kɔkɔewo ƒe asaɖa me.
Praise ye Yah, Sing to Yahweh a song that is new, his praise in the convocation of the men of lovingkindness.
2 Israel nekpɔ dzidzɔ le woƒe Wɔla me, Zionviwo netso aseye ɖe woƒe fia la ŋu.
Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;
3 Wonekafu eƒe ŋkɔ kple ɣeɖuɖu, eye woneƒo ha nɛ kple asiʋuiwo kple kasaŋku.
Let them praise his Name in the dance, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.
4 Elabena Yehowa do dzidzɔ ɖe eƒe dukɔ ŋu, eye wòtsɔ ɖeɖe ɖɔ na ame gblɔewo.
For Yahweh is taking pleasure in his people, He will beautify humbled ones with victory.
5 Ame kɔkɔewo nekpɔ dzidzɔ le eƒe bubu me, eye woadzi ha kple dzidzɔ le woƒe abawo dzi.
Let the men of lovingkindness exult as they glory, Let them shout aloud upon their beds:
6 Mawu kafukafu nenɔ woƒe nu me, eye wòanye yi nuevee anɔ woƒe asiwo me,
The high songs of GOD be in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand:
7 ne woatsɔ abia hlɔ̃ dukɔwo, eye woatsɔe ahe toe na amewo,
To execute an avenging among the nations, rebukes among the peoples:
8 ne woabla woƒe fiawo kple gakɔsɔkɔsɔ, eye woade kunyowu woƒe bubumewo,
To bind their kings with fetters, and their honoured ones with iron bands:
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 upon them the sentence written, An honour, shall it be to all his men of lovingkindness. Praise ye Yah!
