Psalmowo 76
1 Asaf ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Woadzii ɖe kasaŋku ŋu. Wonya Mawu le Yuda, eye eƒe ŋkɔ lolo le Israel.
For the chief musician, on stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph, a song. God has made himself known in Judah; his name is great in Israel.
2 Eƒe agbadɔ le Salem, eye eƒe nɔƒe le Zion.
His tent is in Salem; his dwelling place is in Zion.
3 Afi ma wòŋe aŋutrɔ bibiwo, akpoxɔnuwo kple yiwo le, nu siwo nye aʋawɔnuwo. (Sela)
There he broke the arrows of the bow, the shield, the sword, and the other weapons of war. (Selah)
4 Keklẽ geɖe ƒo xlã wò, eye nènya kpɔ sãsãsã wu to siwo me adelã le fũu la.
You shine brightly and reveal your glory, as you descend from the mountains, where you killed your victims.
5 Woha kalẽtɔwo, wodɔ woƒe alɔ̃ mamlɛtɔ; aʋawɔla siawo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ hã magate ŋu akɔ eƒe asiwo dzi o.
The bravehearted were plundered; they fell asleep. All the warriors were helpless.
6 O! Yakob ƒe Mawu, esi nèblu ko la, sɔ kple tasiaɖam siaa tɔ ɖe teƒe ɖeka.
At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both rider and horse fell asleep.
7 Wò ko wòle be woavɔ̃. Ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe nuwò ne èdo dɔmedzoe?
You, yes you, are to be feared; who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
8 Èɖe gbeƒã wò afiatsotso tso dziƒo, anyigba vɔ̃, eye wòzi ɖoɖoe.
From heaven you made your judgment heard; the earth was afraid and silent
9 O! Mawu, esi nètso be yeatso afia, aɖe anyigba la ƒe hiãtɔwo la, nu sia nu zi ɖoɖoe. (Sela)
when you, God, arose to execute judgment and to save all the oppressed of the earth. (Selah)
10 Vavã, wò dziku helĩhelĩ ɖe amewo ŋu, he kafukafu vɛ na wò, eye ame siwo tsi agbe le wò dziku la megbe la dze akɔ anyi.
Surely your angry judgment against humanity will bring you praise; you gird yourself with what is left of your anger.
11 Miɖe adzɔgbe na Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, eye mixe adzɔgbeɖefeawo; anyigba siwo katã ƒo xlã mi la netsɔ nunanawo vɛ na Ame si wòle be woavɔ̃ la.
Make vows to Yahweh your God and keep them. May all who surround him bring gifts to him who is to be feared.
12 Etsi dziɖulawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ nu; anyigbadzifiawo katã vɔ̃nɛ.
He cuts off the spirit of the princes; he is feared by the kings of the earth.
