For di director of music: with instrument wey get string. Na psalm of Asaph, one song.
76 1 Dem sabi our Papa for Judah; im name big well-well for Israel. 2 Im tent dey for Salem, di place wey e dey stay dey for Zion. a a v2 Salem na old name for Jerusalem — di city wey our Papa choose make e make im house. 3 Na dia e break di arrow wey dey shine, di shield and di sword and di weapon of war. Selah.
4 You dey shine, you get power pass di mountain wey full of prey. 5 Dem strip di strong soldier dem of di things wey dem thief; dem sink inside dia sleep; no single fighting man fit raise im hand. 6 As you talk sharp-sharp, Papa of Jacob, both chariot and horse just lie down, dem no fit move. 7 You, na you dem suppose fear! Who fit stand for your front wen your vex don rise? 8 From heaven you talk your judgment; di earth fear and keep quiet, 9 wen our Papa rise up to judge, to save all di humble people of di earth. Selah.
