< Psalms 103 >

1 [A Psalm] of David. Bless Jehovah, O my soul; and all that is within me, [bless] his holy name!
David ƒe ha. O! Nye luʋɔ, kafu Yehowa; nu siwo katã le menye la, mikafu eƒe ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la.
2 Bless Jehovah, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
O! Nye luʋɔ, kafu Yehowa, eye mègaŋlɔ nu nyui siwo katã wòwɔ na wò la be o.
3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities, who healeth all thy diseases;
Ame si tsɔ wò vodadawo katã kea wò, eye wòdaa gbe le wò dɔlélewo katã ŋu.
4 Who redeemeth thy life from the pit, who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies;
Ame si ɖea wò agbe tso ʋe me, eye wòtsɔa lɔlɔ̃ kple nublanuikpɔkpɔ ɖɔna na wò.
5 Who satisfieth thine old age with good [things]; thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
Ame si tsɔa nu nyuiwo ɖia ƒo na wò didiwo, ale be wò ɖekakpuinyenye gaɖoa yeye me abe hɔ̃ tɔ ene.
6 Jehovah executeth righteousness and justice for all that are oppressed.
Yehowa lɔ̃a nu dzɔdzɔe wɔwɔ, eye wòtsoa afia na ame siwo katã wote ɖe anyi.
7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
Ena Mose nya eƒe mɔwo, eye wòna Israelviwo nya eƒe nuwɔwɔwo.
8 Jehovah is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving-kindness.
Yehowa kpɔa nublanui, eye wòvea ame nu, medoa dɔmedzoe kabakaba o, eye lɔlɔ̃ bɔ ɖe esi.
9 He will not always chide, neither will he keep [his anger] for ever.
Metsɔa nya ɖe ame ŋu ɣe sia ɣi, alo léa dɔmedzoe ɖi ɖikaa o.
10 He hath not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
Mewɔna na mí ɖe míaƒe nu vɔ̃wo nu, alo ɖoa eteƒe na mí ɖe míaƒe vodadawo nu o.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving-kindness toward them that fear him.
Elabena abe ale si dziƒo kɔ tso anyigba gbɔe ene la, nenemae eƒe lɔlɔ̃ loloe na ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
Abe ale si ɣedzeƒe didii tso ɣetoɖoƒe gbɔ ene la, nenemae wòte míaƒe dzidadawo ɖa tso mía gbɔe.
13 As a father pitieth [his] children, so Jehovah pitieth them that fear him.
Abe ale si fofo ƒe dɔ me trɔna ɖe viawo ŋuti ene la, nenemae Yehowa kpɔa nublanui na ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ,
14 For himself knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
elabena enya ale si wowɔ mí, eye eɖo ŋku edzi be ʋuʋudedi ko míenye.
15 As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth:
Amegbetɔ ƒe ŋkekewo le abe gbe ene, edzena abe seƒoƒo le gbedzi ene;
16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone, and the place thereof knoweth it no more.
ya ƒona toa edzi, eye meganɔa anyi o, womegaɖoa ŋku eteƒe gɔ̃ hã dzi o.
17 But the loving-kindness of Jehovah is from everlasting and to everlasting, upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children,
Gake tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me, Yehowa ƒe lɔlɔ̃ li kple ame siwo vɔ̃nɛ, eye eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye nɔa anyi kple wo viwo ƒe viwo
18 To such as keep his covenant and to those that remember his precepts to do them.
kpakple ame siwo léa eƒe nubabla me ɖe asi, eye woɖoa ŋku edzi wɔna ɖe eƒe sewo dzi.
19 Jehovah hath established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom ruleth over all.
Yehowa ɖo eƒe fiazikpui anyi ɖe dziƒo, eye eƒe fiaɖuƒe le wo katã dzi ɖum.
20 Bless Jehovah, ye his angels, mighty in strength, that execute his word, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
Mi eƒe dɔlawo, mikafu Yehowa, mi ŋusẽtɔ siwo wɔa eƒe lɔlɔ̃nu, eye miewɔa eƒe nya dzi.
21 Bless Jehovah, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his that do his will.
Mikafu Yehowa, mi eƒe dziƒoʋakɔwo katã, mi eƒe dɔla siwo wɔa eƒe lɔlɔ̃nu.
22 Bless Jehovah, all his works, in all places of his dominion. Bless Jehovah, O my soul!
Mikafu Yehowa, mi eƒe dɔwɔwɔwo katã, le afi sia afi, le eƒe dziɖuɖu te. O! Nye luʋɔ, kafu Yehowa.
