1 Korah ƒe viwo ƒe ha. Eɖo eƒe agunu anyi ɖe to Kɔkɔe la dzi.

“By the sons of Korach; a psalm or song.” It is founded by him on holy mountains.

2 Yehowa lɔ̃ Zion ƒe agbowo wu Yakob ƒe nɔƒewo katã.

The Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 O! Mawu ƒe du, wogblɔ nu nyui geɖewo tso ŋuwò. (Sela)

Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)

4 “Maŋlɔ Rahab kple Babilon ƒe ŋkɔ ɖe ame siwo nyam la dome, nenema kee nye Filistia kple Tiro hekpe ɖe Kus ŋuti, magblɔ be, ‘Wodzi esia le Zion.’”

I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as those that know me; behold, here is Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: “This man was born there.”

5 Vavã, woagblɔ le Zion ŋu be, “Wodzi esia kple ekemɛ le afi ma, eye Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ŋutɔ aɖo egɔme anyi.”

But of Zion will it be said, “This and that man were born in her:” and the Most High himself doth establish her.

6 Yehowa aŋlɔ ɖe dukɔwo ƒe agbalẽ me be, “Wodzi esia le Zion.” (Sela)

The Lord will number when he writeth down nations. “This man was born there.” (Selah)

7 Ne wole ha dzim la, woadzi ha be, “Nye agunuwo katã le mewò.”

And the singers as well as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs [of joy] are in thee.
