Psalmowo 48

1 Korah ƒe viwo ƒe ha. Yehowa lolo, eye eya koe dze kafukafu le míaƒe Mawu la ƒe du me, le eƒe to kɔkɔe la dzi.

Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.

2 Zion to la kɔkɔ henya kpɔ ale gbegbe, eye wònye dzudzɔdonu na anyigba blibo la. Fia gã la ƒe du, si le abe Zafon to kɔkɔe la ene.

Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

3 Mawu le eƒe fiasãwo me, eye wòɖe eɖokui fia abe eƒe mɔ sesẽ ene.

God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

4 Fiawo ƒo woƒe aʋakɔwo nu ƒu, hezɔ ɖe edzi ɖekae,

For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.

5 ke esi wokpɔe la, woƒe nu ku, ŋɔdzi lé wo eye wosi dzo.

They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.

6 Dzidzi ƒo wo, eye wose veve abe nyɔnu si le ku lém la ene.

Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.

7 Egbã wo gudugudu abe ale si ɣedzeƒeya gbã Tarsis tɔdziʋuwo ene.

You break the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

8 Abe ale si míese ene la, nenemae míekpɔe le Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la kple míaƒe Mawu la ƒe du mee. Mawu na wòanɔ dedie tegbetegbe. (Sela)

As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. (Selah)

9 O! Mawu, míedea ŋugble le wò lɔlɔ̃ si meʋãna o la ŋu le wò gbedoxɔ me.

We have thought of your loving kindness, O God, in the midst of your temple.

10 O! Mawu, wò kafukafu de keke anyigba la ƒe mlɔenu ke abe wò ŋkɔ ene. Wò nuɖusi ɖua fia le dzɔdzɔenyenye me.

According to your name, O God, so is your praise unto the ends of the earth: your right hand is full of righteousness.

11 Zion to kpɔ dzidzɔ, eye Yuda ƒe kɔƒewo le aseye tsom le wò afiatsotso ta.

Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of your judgments.

12 Mizɔ Zion to la ŋu godoo, mizɔ ƒo xlãe, eye mixlẽ eƒe xɔ tsralawo,

Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.

13 ne miakpɔ kpo si woƒo ɖe eƒe gliwo ŋu. Mikpɔ eƒe fiasãwo nyuie ne míatsɔe atu xoe na dzidzime si gbɔna,

Mark all of you well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that all of you may tell it to the generation following.

14 elabena Mawu siae nye míaƒe Mawu tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me; eyae anye mía kplɔla yi ɖase ɖe nuwuwu.

For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.
