Psalmowo 87

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

`The salm of the song of the sones of Chore. The foundementis therof ben in hooli hillis;

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

the Lord loueth the yatis of Sion, more than alle the tabernaclis of Jacob.

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

Thou citee of God, with outen ende; gloriouse thingis ben seide of thee.

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 schal be myndeful of Raab, and Babiloyne; knowynge me. Lo! aliens, and Tyre, and the puple of Ethiopiens; thei weren there.

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

Whether a man schal seie to Sion, And a man is born ther ynne; and that man altherhiyeste foundide it?

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

The Lord schal telle in the scripturis of puplis; and of these princis, that weren ther ynne.

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

As the dwellyng `of alle that ben glad; is in thee.
