Psalmowo 19
1 David ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Dziƒo ɖe Mawu ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ɖe go, eye dziŋgɔli le gbeƒã ɖem eƒe asinudɔwo.
Unto the end. A psalm for David. The heavens shew forth the glory of God, and the firmament declareth the work of his hands.
2 Tso ŋkeke yi ŋkeke, wole Mawu ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe kafum, eye tso zã yi zã, wole eƒe gãnyenye ɖem fia.
Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night sheweth knowledge.
3 Nuƒoƒo alo gbegbɔgblɔ aɖeke meli si me womese woƒe gbe le o.
There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.
4 Woƒe gbe ɖina le anyigba dzi afi sia afi, eye woƒe nyawo dea xexea me ƒe mlɔenu ke gɔ̃ hã. Etu agbadɔ ɖe dziƒowo na ɣe,
Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.
5 eye wòle abe ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃e le go dom tso eƒe agbadɔ me ene. Ele abe duƒula si le dzidzɔ kpɔm be wòalé eƒe mɔ atsɔ ene.
He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way:
6 Ɣe dzena tso dziƒo ƒe go ɖeka dzi, eye wòzɔna yia go kemɛ dzi, naneke meɣla ɖe eƒe dzoxɔxɔ o.
His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.
7 Yehowa ƒe se la de blibo, enaa agbegbɔgbɔ luʋɔ! Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo le eteƒe, eye wonana bometsilawo dzea nunya.
The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones.
8 Yehowa ƒe mɔwo dzɔ, wonana dzi kpɔa dzidzɔ. Yehowa ƒe sewo me kɔ, wonana ame dzea nunya.
The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes.
9 Yehowa ƒe sewo me kɔ; wonɔa anyi ɖaa. Yehowa ƒe sewo li ke sesĩe, eye ɖikeke aɖeke mele woƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye ŋu o.
The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves.
10 Woxɔ asi wu sika kple sika nyuitɔ; wovivina wu anyitsi kple anyitsi si woɖe le anyito me.
More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
11 Wò sewo wotsɔ xlɔ̃ nu wò dɔlae, elabena viɖe gã geɖe le wo dzi wɔwɔ me.
For thy servant keepeth them, and in keeping them there is a great reward.
12 Ame kae ate ŋu ade dzesi nu gbegblẽ si wòwɔ? Tsɔ nye vodada siwo metsɔ ɣla la kem.
Who can understand sins? from my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord:
13 Ɖe wò dɔla tso lɔlɔ̃nuwɔwɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃wo hã me; womaɖu dzinye akpɔ o. Ekema mazu fɔɖiɖi manɔŋutɔ, eye ŋutinye akɔ tso vodada gã me.
And from those of others spare thy servant. If they shall have no dominion over me, then shall I be without spot: and I shall be cleansed from the greatest sin.
14 Na be nye numenyawo kple nye dzi ƒe ŋugbledede nadze ŋuwò, O! Yehowa, nye Agakpe kple nye Xɔnametɔ.
And the words of my mouth shall be such as may please: and the meditation of my heart always in thy sight. O Lord, my helper, and my redeemer.
