Psalms 101

1 A Psalm of David. I will sing of Your loving devotion and justice; to You, O LORD, I will sing praises.

Dawid Dwom. Mɛto wo dɔ ne wo trenee ho nnwom; Awurade, mɛto ayeyi nnwom ama wo.

2 I will ponder the way that is blameless— when will You come to me? I will walk in my house with integrity of heart.

Mɛhwɛ yiye abu ɔbra a ho tew; da bɛn na wobɛba me nkyɛn? Mede koma a afɔdi nni mu bɛhwɛ me fi so.

3 I will set no worthless thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.

Merennye ade a ɛyɛ tan biara nto mu. Mikyi nnipa a wonni gyidi nneyɛe; meremfa me ho mmata ho.

4 A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know nothing of evil.

Nnipa a wɔn koma yɛ kɔntɔnkye remmɛn me; me ne bɔne nni hwee yɛ.

5 Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not endure.

Obiara a odi ne yɔnko ho nseku wɔ kokoa mu no, ɔno na mɛsɛe; nea ɔwɔ ahantan ani ne ahomaso koma, ɔno na merennyigye no so.

6 My eyes favor the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks in the way of integrity shall minister to me.

Mʼani bɛkɔ anokwafo a wɔwɔ asase no so no so na me ne wɔn atena; nea ne nantew ho nni asɛm no ɔno na ɔbɛsom me.

7 No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence.

Nea ɔyɛ ɔdaadaafo biara rentena me fi; nea otwa nkontompo no rennyina mʼanim.

8 Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.

Adekyee biara, mɛsɛe amumɔyɛfo a wɔwɔ asase yi so nyinaa; na mapam ɔdebɔneyɛni biara afi Awurade kuropɔn mu.
