Psalms 54

1 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.

Dawid “maskil” dwom. Ɔtoo no bere a Sififo kɔka kyerɛɛ Saulo se, “Dawid abehintaw wɔ yɛn mu.” Ao, Onyankopɔn, gye me wɔ wo din mu; fa wo tumi bu me bem.

2 Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth.

Ao, Onyankopɔn, tie me mpaebɔ; tie mʼanom nsɛm.

3 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul. They have not set God before them. (Selah)

Ahɔho retow ahyɛ me so. Atirimɔdenfo rehwehwɛ me akum me; nnipa a wɔmmfa Onyankopɔn nyɛ hwee.

4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is of those who uphold my soul.

Ampa ara, Onyankopɔn ne me boafo; Awurade ne me hwɛfo.

5 He will requite the evil to my enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth.

Ma mmusu nkyim mmra wɔn a wodi me ho nseku no so; wo nokwaredi mu, sɛe wɔn.

6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee. I will give thanks to thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.

Mefi me pɛ mu abɔ afɔre ama wo; Awurade, meyi wo din ayɛ, efisɛ eye.

7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble, and my eye has seen it upon my enemies.

Woagye me afi me haw nyinaa mu, na mʼani ahu nkonimdi wɔ mʼatamfo so. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Wɔde sanku na ɛto.
