No wonder I dey always praiz Yu!

9 Naw, for my old age, make Yu nor rijet mi.
Make Yu nor leave mi wen I nor dey strong again.
10 My enemies dey gossip mi.
Dem dey plan how dem go take kill mi.
11 Dem dey sey, “God don rijet am.
So make wi go katch am, bikos nobody go help am again.”
12 So, my God, make Yu nor leave mi,
but make Yu hurry kom save mi.
13 Make Yu disgrace and distroy pipol wey dey akuiz mi.
Make disgrace and shame follow pipol wey won kill mi.
14 But for mi, I go always dey wait for yor help
and I go dey praiz Yu more and more.
15 I go tell evribody about yor raitiousness and evriday,

about di wonderful tins wey Yu don do.
18 Naw wey I don old well-well, make Yu nor leave mi.
Make I tell dis new generashon
and all doz wey dey porshu mi about yor pawa.
19 My God, yor good judgement dey rish di heavens
and Yu don do many wonderful tins,
so na who bi like Yu?
20 Even doh Yu don make mi sofa well-well,
I know sey Yu go make mi happy again
kon take mi komot from di pit wey I dey.
21 I know sey Yu go karry mi put for where dem go for honor mi well,
so make Yu turn kon konfort mi.
22 Den I go praiz Yu with harp,
bikos Yu dey faithful to yor promise.
My God, I go use jita take sing

23 I go shaut for joy kon sing with praiz,

24 and till I die, I go always dey tell pipol about yor good works,
bikos evribody wey dey try to kill mi,
Yu don disgrace and make shame katch dem.
