Psalmowo 60
1 David ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Woadzii ɖe “Nubabla ƒe Dzogbenya” ƒe gbeɖiɖi nu. David kpa nufiameha sia esi wòwɔ aʋa kple Aram Naharaim kple Aram Zobah, kpe ɖe esi Yoab trɔ gbɔ tso aʋa le Dze Balime, afi si wòwu Edomtɔ akpe wuieve le la ŋu. O! Mawu, ègbe mí, èti kpo dze mía dzi, eye nèdo dɔmedzoe ɖe mía ŋu, eya ta gbugbɔ mí ɖo te!
TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “LILY OF TESTIMONY.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID, TO TEACH, IN HIS STRIVING WITH ARAM-NAHARAIM AND WITH ARAM-ZOBAH, WHEN JOAB TURNS BACK AND STRIKES EDOM IN THE VALLEY OF SALT—TWELVE THOUSAND. O God, You had cast us off, You had broken us—had been angry! You turn back to us.
2 Èʋuʋu anyigba la, eye nèfee wòle nuvo, eya ta gatre eƒe gbagbãƒeawo, elabena ele ʋuʋum.
You have caused the land to tremble, You have broken it, Heal its breaches, for it has moved.
3 Èna ɣeyiɣi sesẽwo tu wò dukɔ la, eye nèna wain mí míeno mu hele yiyim sɔgɔsɔgɔsɔgɔ.
You have shown Your people a hard thing, You have caused us to drink wine of trembling.
4 Ke hena ame siwo vɔ̃a wò la, èkɔ aflaga dzi be wòanye akpoxɔnu ɖe woƒe aŋutrɔ ŋu. (Sela)
You have given an ensign to those fearing You, To be lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. (Selah)
5 Xɔ na mí, eye nàɖe mí kple wò nuɖusi, be ame siwo nèlɔ̃ la nakpɔ xɔxɔ.
That Your beloved ones may be drawn out, Save [with] Your right hand, and answer us.
6 Mawu ƒo nu tso eƒe kɔkɔeƒe la be; “Le dziɖuɖu me, mama Sekem, eye madzidze Sukɔt Balime hã.
God has spoken in His holiness: I exult—I apportion Shechem, And I measure the Valley of Succoth,
7 Gilead nye tɔnye, Manase hã tɔnyee. Nye gakukue nye Efraim, eye Yuda nye nye fiatikplɔ.
Gilead [is] Mine, and Manasseh [is] Mine, And Ephraim [is] the strength of My head, Judah [is] My lawgiver,
8 Moab nye nye asiklɔgba, meɖe nye tokota ƒu gbe ɖe Edom dzi, eye medo dziɖuɖuɣli ɖe Filistia ta.”
Moab [is] My pot for washing, Over Edom I cast My shoe, Shout, concerning Me, O Philistia.
9 Ame ka akplɔm ayi du si ŋu woɖo gli sesẽ ƒo xlãe la me? Ame ka akplɔm ayi Edom?
Who brings me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who has led me to Edom?
10 O! Mawu, ɖe menye wòe o la, wò ame si gbe mí, eye mègadona kple míaƒe aʋakɔwo lae oa?
Is it not You, O God? Have You cast us off? And do You not go forth, O God, with our hosts?
11 Kpe ɖe mía ŋu, ɖe míaƒe futɔwo ŋuti, elabena amegbetɔ ƒe kpekpeɖeŋu mele ɖeke me o.
Give to us help from adversity, And the deliverance of man [is] vain.
12 To Mawu dzi, míaɖu dzi, eye míafanya míaƒe futɔwo ɖe anyigba.
We do mightily in God, And He treads down our adversaries!
