A prayer of David. Incline Your ear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
2 Kpɔ nye agbe ta, elabena metsɔ ɖokuinye na wò. Wòe nye nye Mawu, eya ta ɖe wò dɔla si ɖo dzi ɖe ŋuwò.
Preserve my soul, for I am godly. You are my God; save Your servant who trusts in You.
3 O! Aƒetɔ, kpɔ nye nublanui, elabena mele yɔwòm ŋkeke blibo la.
Be merciful to me, O Lord, for I call to You all day long.
4 O! Aƒetɔ, tsɔ dzidzɔ vɛ na wò dɔla, elabena wòe medo nye luʋɔ ɖe dzi na.
Bring joy to Your servant, for to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
5 O! Aƒetɔ, ènyo, eye nètsɔna kena, lɔlɔ̃ bɔ ɖe asiwò na ame siwo katã yɔa wò.
For You, O Lord, are kind and forgiving, rich in loving devotion to all who call on You.
6 O! Yehowa, se nye gbedodoɖa, eye nàlé to ɖe nye nublanuiɣli ŋu.
Hear my prayer, O LORD, and attend to my plea for mercy.
7 Le nye xaxagbe, mayɔ wò elabena àtɔ nam.
In the day of my distress I call on You, because You answer me.
8 O! Aƒetɔ aɖeke megale mawuawo dome abe wò ene o; nuwɔna aɖeke mesɔ kple tɔwò o.
O Lord, there is none like You among the gods, nor any works like Yours.
9 O! Aƒetɔ, dukɔ siwo katã nèwɔ la ava asubɔ le ŋkuwò me, eye woatsɔ ŋutikɔkɔe ana wò ŋkɔ.
All the nations You have made will come and bow before You, O Lord, and they will glorify Your name.
10 Elabena èlolo, eye nèwɔ nu dzɔatsuwo; wò koe nye Mawu.
For You are great and perform wonders; You alone are God.
11 O! Yehowa, fia wò mɔm, eye mazɔ le wò nyateƒe la me; tsɔ dzi si to mɔ ɖeka la nam, ale be mavɔ̃ wò ŋkɔ.
Teach me Your way, O LORD, that I may walk in Your truth. Give me an undivided heart, that I may fear Your name.
12 Makafu wò, O Aƒetɔ, nye Mawu, kple nye dzi blibo. Mado wò ŋkɔ ɖe dzi tegbee,
I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify Your name forever.
For great is Your loving devotion to me; You have delivered me from the depths of Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
14 O! Mawu, dadalawo tso ɖe ŋunye, ŋutasẽlawo ƒe ha ti nye agbe yome, eye wonye ŋutsu siwo mebu wò ɖe naneke me o.
The arrogant rise against me, O God; a band of ruthless men seeks my life, with no regard for You.
15 O! Aƒetɔ, ke wò la, Mawu si kpɔa nublanui, eye wòvea ame nu lae nènye, mèdoa dɔmedzoe kabakaba o, lɔlɔ̃ bɔ ɖe asiwò, eye nèwɔa nuteƒe.
But You, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion and faithfulness.
16 Trɔ ɖe ŋutinye, eye nàkpɔ nublanui nam; na wò ŋusẽ wò dɔla, eye nàɖe viwò ŋutsu nuteƒewɔla.
Turn to me and have mercy; grant Your strength to Your servant; save the son of Your maidservant.
17 Ɖe wò nyuiwɔwɔ ƒe dzesi fiam, be nye futɔwo nakpɔe, eye ŋu nakpe wo, elabena o Yehowa, wòe kpe ɖe ŋunye, eye nèfa akɔ nam.
Show me a sign of Your goodness, that my enemies may see and be ashamed; for You, O LORD, have helped me and comforted me.
