Psalmowo 8

1 David ƒe ha na hɛnɔ la. Woadzii ɖe gitit ƒe gbeɖiɖi nu. O Yehowa, míaƒe Aƒetɔ, aleke wò ŋkɔ ƒe gãnyenye yɔ anyigba katã dzi ale! Èɖo wò ŋutikɔkɔe anyi ɖe dziƒowo tame.

Unto the end, for the presses: a psalm of David. O Lord our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth! For thy magnificence is elevated above the heavens.

2 Èɖo kafukafu anyi ɖe ɖeviwo kple vi nonowo ƒe nu me le wò futɔwo ta be nàmia nu na futɔ kple hlɔ̃biala la.

Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise, because of thy enemies, that thou mayst destroy the enemy and the avenger.

3 Ne mekpɔ wò dziƒowo, siwo nye wò asinudɔwɔwɔwo, ne mekpɔ ɣleti kple ɣletiviwo, nu siwo nètsɔ ɖo wo nɔƒee la,

For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: the moon and the stars which thou hast founded.

4 Nu kae nye amegbetɔ be wò ŋkuwo le eŋuti kple amegbetɔvi be nèléa be nɛ?

What is man that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest hi?

5 Èwɔe wòsɔ kple Mawu kloe, eye nètsɔ ŋutikɔkɔe kple bubu ɖɔ nɛ.

Thou hast made him a little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour:

6 Èwɔe be wòanye agbo ɖe wò asinudɔwɔwɔ dzi; eye nètsɔ nu sia nu de eƒe afɔ te.

And hast set him over the works of thy hands.

7 Alẽhawo, nyihawo, gbemelãwo,

Thou hast subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen: moreover the beasts also of the fields.

8 dziƒoxeviwo, ƒumelãwo kple nu siwo katã ƒua tsi le atsiaƒu me la le eƒe kpɔkplɔ te.

The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, that pass through the paths of the sea.

9 O Yehowa, míaƒe Aƒetɔ, aleke wò ŋkɔ ƒe gãnyenye yɔ anyigba katã dzi ale!

O Lord our Lord, how admirable is thy name in all the earth!
