Psalms 61

1 For the end, among the Hymns of David. O God, hearken to my petition; attend to my prayer.

Dawid dwom. Ao, Onyankopɔn, tie me sufrɛ; tie me mpaebɔ.

2 From the ends of the earth have I cried to thee, when my heart was in trouble: thou liftedst me up on a rock thou didst guide me:

Mifi asase ano frɛ wo, mefrɛ wo, efisɛ me koma atɔ beraw; fa me kɔ ɔbotan a ɛware sen me no so.

3 because thou wert my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.

Woayɛ me guankɔbea, aban a ɛyɛ den ma ɔtamfo no.

4 I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of thy wings. (Pause)

Me kɔn dɔ sɛ metena wo ntamadan no mu afebɔɔ na manya guankɔbea wɔ wo ntaban nwini ase.

5 For thou, o God, hast heard my prayers; thou hast given an inheritance to them that fear thy name.

Woate me bɔ a mehyɛe no, Onyankopɔn; na wode wɔn a wosuro wo din no agyapade ama me.

6 Thou shalt add days to the days of the king; [thou shalt lengthen] his years to all generations.

To ɔhene nkwanna mu bebree; na ne mfe mfi awo ntoatoaso nkodu awo ntoatoaso.

7 He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?

Ma onni hene wɔ Onyankopɔn anim daa fa wʼadɔe ne wo nokware bɔ ne ho ban.

8 So will I sing to thy name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Afei mɛto ayeyi dwom ama wo din daa na madi me bɔhyɛ so daa nyinaa. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. De ma Yedutun.
