Psalmowo 15

1 David ƒe ha. Yehowa, ame kae dze anɔ wò kɔkɔeƒe la? Ame kae anɔ wò togbɛ kɔkɔe la dzi?

A Psalm of David. Jehovah, who doth sojourn in Thy tent? Who doth dwell in Thy holy hill?

2 Ame si fɔɖiɖi mele eƒe zɔzɔme ŋu o, eye wòwɔa nu dzɔdzɔe lae. Ame si toa nyateƒe tso eƒe dzi me ke

He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.

3 eye ameŋugbegblẽ mele aɖe dzi nɛ o, ame si mewɔa vɔ̃ ɖe ehavi ŋu o, eye meƒoa ɖi nɔvia amegbetɔ o,

He hath not slandered by his tongue, He hath not done to his friend evil; And reproach he hath not lifted up Against his neighbour.

4 ame si ame baɖa ƒe nu menyoa eŋu o, ke boŋ edea bubu ame siwo vɔ̃a Yehowa la ŋuti, ame si kaa atam si hea vevesese vanɛ, gake megbea edziwɔwɔ o,

Despised in his eyes [is] a rejected one, And those fearing Jehovah he doth honour. He hath sworn to suffer evil, and changeth not;

5 ame si medoa ga xɔa deme ɖe edzi o, eye mexɔa zãnu ɖe ame maɖifɔ ŋuti o. Ame si wɔa nu siawo la, naneke maʋãe akpɔ gbeɖegbeɖe o.

His silver he hath not given in usury, And a bribe against the innocent Hath not taken; Whoso is doing these is not moved to the age!
