Psalmowo 91
1 Ame si nɔ Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ƒe bebeƒe la agbɔ ɖe eme le Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la ƒe vɔvɔli te.
Who so dwelleth in the secrete of the most High, shall abide in the shadowe of the Almightie.
2 Magblɔ na Yehowa be, “Eyae nye nye sitsoƒe kple nye mɔ sesẽ, nye Mawu si ŋu meku ɖo.”
I will say vnto the Lord, O mine hope, and my fortresse: he is my God, in him will I trust.
3 Vavã, aɖe wò le xevimɔtrela ƒe mɔ kple dɔvɔ̃ dziŋɔ me.
Surely he will deliuer thee from the snare of the hunter, and from the noysome pestilence.
4 Atsɔ eƒe fuwo atsyɔ dziwò, àkpɔ sitsoƒe le eƒe aʋala te, eye eƒe nuteƒewɔwɔ anye wò akpoxɔnu kple mɔxenu aƒo xlã wò.
Hee will couer thee vnder his winges, and thou shalt be sure vnder his feathers: his trueth shall be thy shielde and buckler.
5 Màvɔ̃ zãmeŋɔdzi alo aŋutrɔ si le ʋɔ lũm le ŋkeke me,
Thou shalt not be afraide of the feare of the night, nor of the arrowe that flyeth by day:
6 dɔvɔ̃ si le tsatsam le viviti me, alo dɔxɔleameŋu si le nu gblẽm le ŋdɔ la o.
Nor of the pestilence that walketh in the darkenesse: nor of the plague that destroyeth at noone day.
7 Akpe adze anyi ɖe axawò, eye akpe ewo ɖe wò nuɖusime, ke wò la, mate ɖe ŋuwò o.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and tenne thousand at thy right hand, but it shall not come neere thee.
8 Ɖeko nàkpɔe kple wò ŋkuwo, eye àkpɔ ale si woahe to na ame vɔ̃ɖiwoe.
Doubtlesse with thine eyes shalt thou beholde and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Ne ètsɔ Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la, Yehowa, ame si nye nye sitsoƒe wɔ nɔwòƒee la,
For thou hast said, The Lord is mine hope: thou hast set the most High for thy refuge.
10 ekema dzɔgbevɔ̃e maɖi kpe wò o, eye gbegblẽ mate ɖe wò agbadɔ ŋu o,
There shall none euill come vnto thee, neither shall any plague come neere thy tabernacle.
11 elabena ade se na eƒe dɔlawo tso ŋutiwò, be woakpɔ tawò le wò mɔwo katã dzi.
For hee shall giue his Angels charge ouer thee to keepe thee in all thy wayes.
12 Woakɔ wò ɖe woƒe asiwo me, be màtsɔ wò afɔ axlã ɖe kpe aɖeke o.
They shall beare thee in their handes, that thou hurt not thy foote against a stone.
13 Àɖo afɔ dzata kple ƒli dzi, eye ànya avuzi le dzata dziŋɔ kple da vɔ̃ɖi dzi.
Thou shalt walke vpon the lyon and aspe: the yong lyon and the dragon shalt thou treade vnder feete.
14 Yehowa be, “Maɖee, elabena elɔ̃m, madzɔ eŋu, elabena enya nye ŋkɔ.
Because he hath loued me, therefore will I deliuer him: I will exalt him because hee hath knowen my Name.
15 Ayɔm, eye matɔ nɛ; manɔ anyi kplii le xaxa me, maɖee, eye made bubu eŋuti.
He shall call vpon me, and I wil heare him: I will be with him in trouble: I will deliuer him, and glorifie him.
16 Matsɔ agbe didi aɖi ƒo nɛ, eye maɖe nye xɔxɔ afiae.”
With long life wil I satisfie him, and shew him my saluation.
