< Psalmowo 24 >
1 David ƒe ha. Anyigba kple nu siwo katã yɔ edzi, xexea me kple emenɔlawo katã nye Yehowa tɔ.
A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 Elabena eɖoe anyi ɖe atsiaƒu dzi, eye wòɖo egɔme anyi ɖe tɔsisiwo dzi gli.
For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
3 Ame kae alia Yehowa ƒe togbɛ? Ame kae atsi tsitre ɖe eƒe kɔkɔeƒe la?
Who shall ascend into the mountain of the LORD? and who shall stand in His holy place?
4 Ame si ƒe asi me dza, eye eƒe dzi me le dzadzɛe, ame si metsɔ eƒe luʋɔ na legba o, eye mekaa aʋatso heta nu dzodzro o.
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not taken My name in vain, and hath not sworn deceitfully.
5 Eya axɔ yayra tso Yehowa gbɔ, eye Mawu, eƒe Ɖela la, atso afia nɛ.
He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 O! Yakob ƒe Mawu, aleae dzidzime si dia wò, eye wòdia ŋkuwòme la le. (Sela)
Such is the generation of them that seek after Him, that seek Thy face, even Jacob. (Selah)
7 O! Mi agbowo, miʋu; mi blemaʋɔtruwo, miʋu, ne Ŋutikɔkɔefia la nage ɖe eme.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors; that the King of glory may come in.
8 Ame kae nye Ŋutikɔkɔefia la? Yehowa ŋusẽtɔ kple kalẽtɔ lae, Yehowa si wɔa kalẽ le aʋagbedzi lae.
'Who is the King of glory?' 'The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.'
9 O! Mi agbowo, miʋu; mi blemaʋɔtruwo, miʋu, ne Ŋutikɔkɔefia la nage ɖe eme.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates, yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors; that the King of glory may come in.
10 Ame kae nye Ŋutikɔkɔefia sia? Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ lae nye Ŋutikɔkɔefia la. (Sela)
'Who then is the King of glory?' 'The LORD of hosts; He is the King of glory.' (Selah)
