1Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.
1 Ya Rabbi, manti iri wo bo, manti iri wo bo, Amma i ma ni maa beerandi, Ni baakasinay suujo da ni cimo sabbay se.
2Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”
2 Ifo se no dumi cindey ga ne: «Man no i Irikoyo go binde?»
3But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
3 To, iri Irikoyo go beene, A te hay kulu kaŋ ga kaan nga se.
4Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
4 I toorey, wura da nzarfu yaŋ no, boro kambe goyyaŋ no.
5They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.
5 I gonda meyaŋ, amma i si salaŋ; I gonda moyaŋ, amma i si di;
6They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.
6 I gonda hangayaŋ, amma i si maa; I gonda niineyaŋ, amma i si mani;
7They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
7 I gonda kambeyaŋ, amma i si ham; I gonda ceyaŋ, amma i si dira, I si salaŋ mo ngey karrey ra.
8Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
8 I teekoy ga ciya i cine yaŋ, Oho, hala nda boro kulu kaŋ ga de i gaa.
9Israel, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
9 Ya Israyla, ma de Rabbi gaa. Nga no ga ti i gaakasina da i korayo.
10House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
10 Ya Haruna kunda, wa de Rabbi gaa. Nga no ga ti i gaakasina da i korayo.
11You who fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
11 Ya araŋ kaŋ ga humburu Rabbi, wa de Rabbi gaa. Nga no ga ti i gaakasina da i korayo.
12Yahweh remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.
12 Rabbi fongu iri gaa, a ga iri albarkandi mo. A ga Israyla dumo albarkandi, A ga Haruna kunda mo albarkandi.
13He will bless those who fear Yahweh, both small and great.
13 Borey kaŋ yaŋ ga humburu Rabbi, A g'i albarkandi, ikayney da ibeerey kulu.
14May Yahweh increase you more and more, you and your children.
14 Rabbi ma naŋ araŋ ma baa ka tonton, Araŋ d'araŋ izey.
15Blessed are you by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
15 Rabbi m'araŋ albarkandi, Nga kaŋ na beene nda ganda te.
16The heavens are the heavens of Yahweh; but the earth has he given to the children of men.
16 Beeney ya Rabbi beeney no, Amma a na ganda no Adam-izey se.
17The dead don’t praise Yah, neither any who go down into silence;
17 Buukoy da borey kaŋ yaŋ ga do siw nango ra, I kulu si Rabbi sifa.
18But we will bless Yah, from this time forth and forevermore. Praise Yah!
18 Amma iri wo, iri ga Rabbi sifa, Za sohõ ka koy hal abada. Alleluya!
