Sing to Yahweh a new song, because he has done wonderful things! By his power [MTY] and his great strength [DOU] he has defeated [his enemies].

2 Yehowa na wonya eƒe ɖeɖe, eye wòklo nu le eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye dzi na dukɔwo.

Yahweh has declared to people that he has defeated his enemies; he has revealed that he has punished [them], and [people in] all the world have seen that he has done it.

Like he promised to us Israeli people [MTY], he has faithfully loved us and (been loyal to/not abandoned) us. [People who live] in very remote places in all the earth have seen that our God has defeated [his enemies].

4 Mi anyigbawo katã, mido dzidzɔɣli na Yehowa, migli kple hadzidzi kple saŋkuƒoƒo.

All you [people] [MTY] everywhere should sing joyfully to Yahweh; praise him while you sing and shout joyfully!

5 Midzi ha na Yehowa kple kasaŋku, mitsɔ kasaŋku, hadzidzi,

Praise Yahweh while you play the lyres/harps, playing [delightful] music.

6 kpẽkuku kple lãdzokuku kpakple dzidzɔɣli do ɖe Yehowa, fia la ŋkume.

[Some of you should] blow trumpets and other horns, [while others] shout joyfully to Yahweh, [our] king.

7 Mina atsiaƒu kple nu siwo katã le eme la nado ɣli, anyigba kple edzinɔlawo katã hã.

The oceans and all [the creatures] that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh]. Everyone on the earth should sing!

8 Mina tɔsisiwo naƒo asikpe, eye towo katã nadzi ha ɖekae le dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ ta.

[It should seem as though] the rivers are clapping their hands [to praise Yahweh] and that the hills are singing together joyfully in front of Yahweh,

9 Wonedzi ha le Yehowa ŋkume, elabena eva ʋɔnu drɔ̃ ge anyigba la. Adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu anyigba la le dzɔdzɔenyenye me kple dukɔwo ameŋkumemakpɔmakpɔtɔe.

because he will come to judge [everyone on] [MTY] the earth! He will judge [all] the people-groups [in the world] justly and fairly [DOU].
