1 Khangela inceku yami, engiyisekelayo, umkhethwa wami, othokoza ngaye umphefumulo wami; ngibekile uMoya wami phezu kwakhe; uzavezela izizwe isahlulelo.
“Kpɔ ɖa esiae nye nye dɔla si melé ɖe te, nye ame tiatia si ŋu mekpɔa ŋudzedze le; matsɔ nye gbɔgbɔ kɔ ɖe eya amea dzi ne wòadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu dzɔdzɔe na dukɔwo.
2 Kayikumemeza, kayikuphakamisa ilizwi, kayikwenza ilizwi lakhe lizwakale esitaladeni.
Mafa avi alo ado ɣli alo woase eƒe ŋkɔ le mɔtata dzi o.
3 Umhlanga ofecekileyo kayikuwephula, lentambo yesibane ethunqayo kayikuyicitsha; uzaveza isahlulelo ngeqiniso.
Maɖe aƒla ŋeŋe la ɖa o, eye matsi akaɖimeɖovu si le bibim ɖɔɖɔɖɔ la o. Adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu le nyateƒe me.
4 Kayikudinwa, kayikwephulwa, aze amise isahlulelo emhlabeni; lezihlenge zizalindela umlayo wakhe.
Maʋuʋu alo dzi naɖe le eƒo o va se ɖe esime wòɖo dzɔdzɔenyenye ƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃ƒe anyi ɖe anyigba dzi, eye ƒukpowo ada woƒe mɔkpɔkpɔwo ɖe eƒe se la dzi.”
5 Utsho njalo uNkulunkulu iNkosi, owadala amazulu, wawelula, owendlala umhlaba lalokho okuphuma kuwo, onika abantu abakuwo ukuphefumula, lomoya kulabo abahamba kuwo.
Ale Yehowa, Mawu, ame si wɔ dziƒo, eye wòhe eme, ame si keke anyigba kple nu siwo katã doa go tso eme, ame si na agbegbɔgbɔ edzinɔlawo, eye wòna agbe ame siwo zɔna le edzi la gblɔe nye esi.
6 Mina Nkosi ngikubizile ngokulunga, ngizabamba isandla sakho, ngikulondoloze, ngikunike ube yisivumelwano sabantu, ube yikukhanya kwabezizwe.
“Nye, Yehowa, meyɔ wò le dzɔdzɔenyenye me. Malé wò alɔnu. Makpɔ tawò, ana nànye nubabla na amewo kple kekeli na dukɔwo,
7 Ukuthi uvule amehlo eziphofu, ukuthi ukhuphe izibotshwa entolongweni, labahlezi emnyameni endlini yezibotshwa.
be nàʋu ŋku na ŋkugbagbãtɔwo, be nàɖe ga gamenɔlawo, eye nàɖe ame siwo nɔ do globo me la tso viviti me.
8 NgiyiNkosi, lelo libizo lami; lodumo lwami kangiyikulunika omunye, kumbe indumiso yami ezithombeni ezibaziweyo.
“Nyee nye Yehowa, ŋkɔnyee ma! Nyematsɔ nye ŋutikɔkɔe alo kafukafu ana legbawo o.
9 Khangela, izinto zamandulo sezifikile; sengimemezela izinto ezintsha; zingakahlumi ngilitshela ngazo.
Kpɔ ɖa, blemanyawo va eme, eye megale yeyewo gblɔm. Hafi woava dzɔ la, meɖe gbeƒã tso wo ŋuti na mi xoxo.”
10 Hlabelelani iNkosi ingoma entsha, indumiso zayo kusukela emkhawulweni womhlaba; lina elehlela elwandle, lokugcwala kwalo, zihlenge, labahlali bazo.
Mi ame siwo toa atsiaƒu dzi, mi nu siwo le atsiaƒu me, mi ƒukpowo kple ame siwo le wo dzi, midzi ha yeye na Yehowa. Midzi eƒe kafukafuha le anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke.
11 Kakuthi inkangala lemizi yayo kuphakamise ilizwi, lemizi uKedari ahlala kuyo; kakuthi abahlali bedwala bahlabelele, bamemeze besengqongeni yezintaba.
Gbegbe kple du siwo le afi ma nekɔ woƒe gbe dzi. Kedar ƒe kɔƒewo me nɔlawo netso aseye. Ame siwo le Sela la nedzi ha kple dzidzɔ. Wonedo ɣli tso towo tame.
12 Kabayinike udumo iNkosi, bamemezele indumiso yayo ezihlengeni.
Wonetsɔ ŋutikɔkɔe na Yehowa, eye woaɖe gbeƒã eƒe kafukafu le ƒukpowo dzi.
13 INkosi izaphuma njengeqhawe, ivuselele ukutshiseka njengendoda yempi; izamemeza, yebo iklabalale, izinqobe izitha zayo.
Yehowa ado abe kalẽtɔ ene. Ade dzo eɖokui me abe aʋawɔla ene. Atsɔ eƒe gbe ado aʋaɣli, eye wòaɖu eƒe futɔwo dzi.
14 Kwasendulo ngithule, ngathi zwi, ngazibamba; ngizakhala njengowesifazana obelethayo; ngiphefuzele, ngikhefuzele kanyekanye.
“Mezi kpi eteƒe didi, mezi ɖoɖoe, eye melé ɖokuinye kpoo, ke azɔ la, abe nyɔnu si le ku lém ene la, mado ɣli, alɔ gbɔgbɔtsixe ɖe ƒo, eye manɔ gbɔgbɔm fuxefuxe.
15 Ngizabhidliza izintaba lamaqaqa, ngomise konke okuluhlaza kwazo, ngenze imifula ibe yizihlenge, ngomise amachibi.
Makaka towo kple togbɛwo, mana gbe damawo katã naƒu, mana tɔsisiwo nazu tɔdomekpowo, eye mana tɔʋuwo namie keŋkeŋ.
16 Njalo ngizakwenza iziphofu zihambe ngendlela ezingayaziyo, ngizikhokhelele emikhondweni ezingayaziyo; ngizakwenza umnyama ube yikukhanya phambi kwazo, lezinto ezigobileyo ziqonde; lezizinto ngizazenza kuzo, ngingaziyekeli.
Makplɔ ŋkugbagbãtɔwo ato mɔ si womenya tsã o la dzi, eye makplɔ wo to mɔ manyamanya dzi. Mana viviti nazu kekeli le wo ŋgɔ, eye mana toƒe tsakliwo nazu zɔzrɔ̃e na wo. Esiawoe nye nu siwo mawɔ, nyemagble wo ɖi o.
17 Bazabuyiselwa emuva, bayangeke ngenhloni abathembela ezithombeni ezibaziweyo, abathi ezithombeni ezibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa: Lingonkulunkulu bethu.
Ke ame siwo ɖoa dzi ɖe aklamakpakpɛwo ŋu, ame siwo gblɔna na legbawo be, ‘Míaƒe mawuwoe mienye’ la, woagbugbɔ ɖe megbe kple ŋukpe gã.
18 Zwanini lina zacuthe, lani ziphofu likhangele, ukuze libone.
“Mi tokunɔwo, mise nu, mi ŋkugbagbãtɔwo, mifɔ mo dzi, miakpɔ nu!
19 Ngubani oyisiphofu ngaphandle kwenceku yami, kumbe oyisacuthe njengesithunywa sami engisithumayo? Ngubani oyisiphofu njengopheleleyo, loyisiphofu njengenceku yeNkosi?
Ame kae tsi ŋku, eye wòku to abe nye dɔla si medɔ la ene, ɖe menye nye dɔlae oa? Ame kae nye ŋkunɔ abe xɔ̃nye ene, eye wòtsi ŋku abe Yehowa ƒe dɔla ene?
20 Wena ubona izinto ezinengi, kodwa ungaziqaphelisi; yena uvula izindlebe, kodwa kezwa.
Èkpɔ nu geɖe, gake mètsɔ wo de ta me o, wò towo le ʋuʋu ɖi, gake mèse naneke o.”
21 INkosi iyathokoza ngenxa yokulunga kwayo; ikhulise umlayo, iwenze ube lodumo.
Edze Yehowa ŋu le eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye ta be, wòade gãnyenye kple bubu eƒe se ŋu.
22 Kodwa laba ngabantu abantshontshelwayo baphangwa, bonke bathiyiwe emigodini, bafihlwa ezintolongweni; bangabokuphangwa, njalo kungekho okhululayo; bayimpango, njalo kungabikho othi: Buyisela.
Ke esia nye ame siwo woda adzoe, eye woha wo; mɔ ɖe wo katã le dowo me, eye wobe ɖe gaxɔwo me. Wozu nuhaha, eye ame aɖeke meli axɔ na wo o. Wozu nu siwo woda adzoe, eye ame aɖeke meli agblɔ be, “Mitrɔ wo yii o.”
23 Ngubani phakathi kwenu ozabeka indlebe kulokhu, ozalalela azwe esikhathini esizayo?
Mia dometɔ kae aɖo to nu sia alo alé to ɖe nu siwo gbɔna dzɔdzɔ ge la ŋu tsitotsito?
24 Ngubani owanikela uJakobe ekuphangweni, loIsrayeli kubaphangi? Kwakungeyisiyo yini iNkosi esone kuyo? Ngoba bengavumanga ukuhamba endleleni zayo, njalo bengalalelanga umlayo wayo.
Ame kae de Yakob asi be wòazu nuhaha, eye wòde Israel asi na adzodalawo? Ɖe menye Yehowa, ame si ŋu miewɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖo lae oa? Elabena wogbe eƒe mɔwo dzi toto, eye womewɔ ɖe eƒe sewo dzi o.
25 Ngakho yathululela phezu kwakhe ukuvutha kolaka lwayo, lamandla empi; njalo kwamthungela ngomlilo inhlangothi zonke, kodwa kakwazanga; kwamtshisa, kodwa kakubekanga enhliziyweni.
Eya ta wòtrɔ eƒe dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ la kple aʋawɔwɔ ƒe nu vlowo kɔ ɖe wo dzi. Ena dzo bi ƒo xlã wo, gake womese egɔme o. Dzo la fia wo, gake mede dzi gbɔ na wo o.
