Psalmowo 28
1 David ƒe ha. O! Yehowa, nye Agakpe, wò yɔm mele, mègado tokum o. Elabena ne èzi ɖoɖoe la, manɔ abe ame siwo yi aʋlime la ene.
Of David. To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.
2 Esi mekɔ nye asiwo dzi ɖo ɖe wò Kɔkɔeƒewo ƒe Kɔkɔƒe la gbɔ la, se nye ɣlidodo na nublanuikpɔkpɔ, ne meyɔ wò be nàxɔ nam.
Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.
3 Mègakplɔm kpe ɖe ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ŋu o, ame siwo ƒoa nu kple aƒelikawo fafɛ, gake vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi le woƒe dzi me.
Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
4 Ɖo eteƒe na wo le woƒe nuwɔnawo kple woƒe dɔwɔwɔ vɔ̃wo ta. Xe fe na wo ɖe nu si woƒe asiwo wɔ la nu, eye nàgbugbɔ tohehe si wodze na la ahe va wo dzii.
Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.
5 Esi womede bubu Yehowa ƒe nuwɔnawo kple eƒe asinudɔwo ŋuti o ta la, àgbã wo aƒu anyi, eye màgbugbɔ wo atu akpɔ gbeɖe o.
Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.
6 Woakafu Yehowa, elabena ese ɣli si dom mele le nublanuikpɔkpɔ biam.
Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.
7 Yehowae nye nye ŋusẽ kple akpoxɔnu; nye dzi ka ɖe eya amea dzi, eye wòɖem. Nye dzi ti kpo le dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ ta, eye mada akpe nɛ to hadzidzi me.
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.
8 Yehowae nye eƒe dukɔ ƒe ŋusẽ; ɖeɖe ƒe mɔ sesẽ wònye na eƒe amesiamina.
The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.
9 Ɖe wò dukɔ, eye nàyra wò domenyinu; nànye woƒe kplɔla, eye nàkɔ wo ɖe akɔnu tegbetegbe.
Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.
