(A song by David for worship.)
Thanking the Lord for Victory
1 The Lord was on our side!
Let everyone in Israel say:
2 “The Lord was on our side!
Otherwise, the enemy attack
3 would have killed us all,
because it was furious.
4 We would have been swept away
in a violent flood
5 of high and roaring waves.”
6 Let's praise the Lord!
He protected us from enemies
who were like wild animals,
7 and we escaped like birds
from a hunter's torn net.
8 The Lord made heaven and earth,
and he is the one
who sends us help.

1 Ondro aba OPI ka'do ko ama resi e'di a'dona ni ya?
Nyiti tana ami Yisaraele'bai!
2 “Ondro aba OPI ka'do ko ama resi,
tuse kyila'baazii amaro kogota ama be si,
3 aba 'dooko ànya lotenayi ama ṛo lidriidriro
kyila yaoso ro ànyaro ama lomvo si;
4 aba oga gyi ro ŋgyi ama te di,
aba gyi otena drî amaro ṛo 'biṛi,
5 aba ärru gyi ro imvuna ama.”
6 Aro'boya ka'do OPI ri,
se 'ba kyila'baazii amaro kote ama tufune ono.
7 Màpavote oso ari ronye ni iba ibaoyi'ba ro yasi
iba lekyete, ago màpavo te.
8 Ŋgaopa amaro kikyi ni OPI re,
se ko'ba vo'buyakuru ni ndi 'bädri be ono.
