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.
A song. A psalm of the Korahites. Great is the Lord and worthy all praise in the city of our God. His holy mountain,
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.
that rises so fair, is the joy of all the world. Like the mount of the gods is Mount Zion, the city of the great king.
3 Mawu le eƒe fiasãwo me, eye wòɖe eɖokui fia abe eƒe mɔ sesẽ ene.
Once God made himself known as the defence of her palaces.
4 Fiawo ƒo woƒe aʋakɔwo nu ƒu, hezɔ ɖe edzi ɖekae,
For see! A concert of kings passed over the frontier together.
5 ke esi wokpɔe la, woƒe nu ku, ŋɔdzi lé wo eye wosi dzo.
But one glance, and they were astounded; they hastened away in dismay.
6 Dzidzi ƒo wo, eye wose veve abe nyɔnu si le ku lém la ene.
Trembling took hold of them there, like the pains of a woman in labour.
7 Egbã wo gudugudu abe ale si ɣedzeƒeya gbã Tarsis tɔdziʋuwo ene.
They were shattered, as east wind shatters the giant ships in pieces.
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)
What we heard, we now have seen in the city of the Lord of hosts, the city of our God. God will uphold her forever. (Selah)
9 O! Mawu, míedea ŋugble le wò lɔlɔ̃ si meʋãna o la ŋu le wò gbedoxɔ me.
We think, O God, of your love, 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.
Your fame, O God, like your name, shall extend to the ends of the earth. Victory fills your hand.
11 Zion to kpɔ dzidzɔ, eye Yuda ƒe kɔƒewo le aseye tsom le wò afiatsotso ta.
Let mount Zion be glad; let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments.
12 Mizɔ Zion to la ŋu godoo, mizɔ ƒo xlãe, eye mixlẽ eƒe xɔ tsralawo,
Walk about Zion, go round her; count her towers.
13 ne miakpɔ kpo si woƒo ɖe eƒe gliwo ŋu. Mikpɔ eƒe fiasãwo nyuie ne míatsɔe atu xoe na dzidzime si gbɔna,
Set your mind on her ramparts, consider her palaces; that you tell to the next generation
14 elabena Mawu siae nye míaƒe Mawu tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me; eyae anye mía kplɔla yi ɖase ɖe nuwuwu.
That such is God, our God he it is who shall guide us for ever and ever.
