Psalmowo 149

1 Mikafu Yehowa. Midzi ha yeye na Yehowa, midzi eƒe kafukafuha le ame kɔkɔewo ƒe asaɖa me.

Praise ye the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, [and] his praise in the congregation of saints.

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 children of Zion be joyful 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: let them sing praises to him with the timbrel and harp:

4 Elabena Yehowa do dzidzɔ ɖe eƒe dukɔ ŋu, eye wòtsɔ ɖeɖe ɖɔ na ame gblɔewo.

For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

5 Ame kɔkɔewo nekpɔ dzidzɔ le eƒe bubu me, eye woadzi ha kple dzidzɔ le woƒe abawo dzi.

Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

6 Mawu kafukafu nenɔ woƒe nu me, eye wòanye yi nuevee anɔ woƒe asiwo me,

[Let] the high [praises] of God [be] in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

7 ne woatsɔ abia hlɔ̃ dukɔwo, eye woatsɔe ahe toe na amewo,

To execute vengeance upon the heathen, [and] punishments upon the people;

8 ne woabla woƒe fiawo kple gakɔsɔkɔsɔ, eye woade kunyowu woƒe bubumewo,

To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters 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 upon them the judgment written: this honor have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.
