< Psalmowo 77 >
1 Asaf ƒe ha na Hɛnɔ Yedutun. Medo ɣli na Mawu be wòaxɔ nam; medo ɣli na Mawu be wòaɖo tom.
I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.
2 Esi meɖo xaxa me la, medi Aƒetɔ la; le zã me la, meke nye abɔwo me, gake ɖeɖi mete wo ŋu o, eye nye luʋɔ gbe akɔfafaxɔxɔ.
In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.
3 O! Mawu, meɖo ŋku dziwò, eye meɖe hũu. Mele ŋeŋem, eye nu te nye gbɔgbɔ ŋu. (Sela)
I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. (Selah)
4 Èna nye ŋkuwo gbe miamia; fuɖeɖewo sɔ gbɔ ale gbegbe be nyemate ŋu aƒo nu o.
Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 Mebu gbe aɖe gbe ŋkekewo kple blemaƒewo ŋu.
I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6 Tete meɖo ŋku ha siwo medzina le zã me la dzi. Nye dzi gbã, eye nye gbɔgbɔ bia be:
I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.
7 “Ɖe Aƒetɔ la agbe ame tegbetegbea? Ɖe magave ame nu akpɔ oa?
Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
8 Ɖe eƒe lɔlɔ̃ si meʋãna o la vɔ tegbetegbea? Ɖe eƒe ŋugbedodo vɔ hena ɣeyiɣiawo katã?
Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?
9 Ɖe Mawu ŋlɔ nublanuikpɔkpɔ bea? Ɖe wòɖo asi eƒe dɔmenyonyo dzi le dɔmedzoe ta?” (Sela)
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? (Selah)
10 Tete megblɔ be, “Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ƒe nuɖusi ƒe ƒewo ko maƒo koko na.”
And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.
11 Maɖo ŋku Yehowa ƒe nuwɔwɔwo dzi, ɛ̃, maɖo ŋku nukunu siwo nèwɔ le blema la dzi.
I will remember the works of Yah: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
12 Made ŋugble le wò dɔwɔwɔwo katã ŋu, eye mabu ta me le wò nuwɔwɔ dzɔatsuwo ŋu.
I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
13 O! Mawu, wò mɔwo le kɔkɔe mawu kae lolo abe míaƒe Mawu la ene?
Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?
14 Wòe nye Mawu si wɔ nukunuwo, eye nèɖe wò ŋusẽ fia le dukɔwo dome.
Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.
15 Ètsɔ wò abɔ sesẽ la ɖe wò dukɔ la, ame siwo nye Yakob kple Yosef ƒe dzidzimeviwo. (Sela)
Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
16 O! Mawu, tsiwo kpɔ wò, tsiwo kpɔ wò, eye woŋe, gogloƒewo ke hã dzo nyanyanya.
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
17 Lilikpo ɖuɖu tsi bababa, dziŋgɔli ɖe gbe, eye wò aŋutrɔwo klẽ dzo bibibi, yi gagbɔ.
The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.
18 Wose wò gbeɖeɖe le yali me, wò dzikedzo klẽ ɖe xexea me, eye anyigba ʋuʋu hedzo nyanyanya.
The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.
19 Wò mɔ to atsiaƒu me, eye wò toƒe le tɔ gãwo me, gake womekpɔa wò afɔteƒe o.
Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
20 Èkplɔ wò dukɔ abe alẽha ene, to Mose kple Aron ƒe asiwo dzi.
Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
