1 David ƒe gbedodoɖa. Ɖo tom, O Yehowa, eye nàtɔ nam, elabena meda ahe, eye hiã tum.
A Prayer of David. O Lord, incline thine ear, and hearken to 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 holy; save thy servant, O God, who hopes in thee.
3 O! Aƒetɔ, kpɔ nye nublanui, elabena mele yɔwòm ŋkeke blibo la.
Pity me, O Lord: for to thee will I cry all the day.
4 O! Aƒetɔ, tsɔ dzidzɔ vɛ na wò dɔla, elabena wòe medo nye luʋɔ ɖe dzi na.
Rejoice the sold of thy servant: for to thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul.
5 O! Aƒetɔ, ènyo, eye nètsɔna kena, lɔlɔ̃ bɔ ɖe asiwò na ame siwo katã yɔa wò.
For thou, O Lord, art kind, and gentle; and plenteous in mercy to all that call upon thee.
6 O! Yehowa, se nye gbedodoɖa, eye nàlé to ɖe nye nublanuiɣli ŋu.
Give ear to my prayer, o Lord; and attend to the voice of my supplication.
7 Le nye xaxagbe, mayɔ wò elabena àtɔ nam.
In the day of my trouble I cried to thee: for thou didst hear me.
8 O! Aƒetɔ aɖeke megale mawuawo dome abe wò ene o; nuwɔna aɖeke mesɔ kple tɔwò o.
There is none like to thee, O Lord, among the god; and there are no [works] like to thy works.
9 O! Aƒetɔ, dukɔ siwo katã nèwɔ la ava asubɔ le ŋkuwò me, eye woatsɔ ŋutikɔkɔe ana wò ŋkɔ.
All nations whom thou hast made shall come, and shall worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.
10 Elabena èlolo, eye nèwɔ nu dzɔatsuwo; wò koe nye Mawu.
For thou art great, and doest wonders: thou art the only [and] the great 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.
Guide me, O Lord, in thy way, and I will walk in thy truth: let my heart rejoice, that I may fear thy name.
12 Makafu wò, O Aƒetɔ, nye Mawu, kple nye dzi blibo. Mado wò ŋkɔ ɖe dzi tegbee,
I will give thee thanks, O Lord my God, with all my heart; and I will glorify thy name for ever.
For thy mercy is great toward me; and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell. (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.
O God, transgressors have risen up against me, and an assembly of violent [men] have sought my life; and have not set thee before them.
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 thou, O Lord God, art compassionate and merciful, long-suffering, and abundant in mercy and true.
16 Trɔ ɖe ŋutinye, eye nàkpɔ nublanui nam; na wò ŋusẽ wò dɔla, eye nàɖe viwò ŋutsu nuteƒewɔla.
Look thou upon me, and have mercy upon me: give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.
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.
Establish with me a token for good; and let them that hate me see [it] and be ashamed; because thou, O Lord, hast helped me, and comforted me.
