Psalms 20

1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob protect thee;

Dawid dwom. Awurade ntie wo wɔ wʼahohia mu; Yakob Nyankopɔn din mmɔ wo ho ban.

2 May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

Ɔmfa mmoa mfi kronkronbea hɔ mmrɛ wo, na omfi Sion mmɛhyɛ wo den.

3 Remember all thine oblations, and accept thy burnt-offering; (Selah)

Ɔnkae wʼafɔrebɔ nyinaa, na ɔmma wo hyew afɔre nsɔ nʼani.

4 Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfil all thy counsels.

Ɔmma wo nea wo koma pɛ, na wo nhyehyɛe nyinaa nyɛ yiye.

5 We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God will we set up our banners. Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions!

Yɛbɛbɔ ose bere a woadi nkonim, na yɛama yɛn frankaa so wɔ yɛn Nyankopɔn din mu. Awurade nyɛ wʼabisade nyinaa mma wo.

6 Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; he answereth him from the heavens of his holiness, with the saving strength of his right hand.

Afei mahu sɛ Awurade ma nea wasra no no nkonimdi, ofi ne kronkronbea wɔ ɔsoro gye no so, ɔde ne nkonimdi tumi a ɛwɔ ne nsa nifa mu no.

7 Some make mention of chariots, and some of horses, but we of the name of Jehovah our God.

Ebinom de wɔn ho to wɔn nteaseɛnam so na afoforo nso, wɔn apɔnkɔ so, nanso yɛn de, yɛde yɛn ho to Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn din so.

8 They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen and stand upright.

Wɔbrɛ wɔn ase ma wɔhwehwe ase, na yɛn de, yɛsɔre gyina kirebenn.

9 Save, Jehovah! Let the king answer us in the day we call.

Awurade, ma ɔhene nkonimdi! Yɛfrɛ a, gye yɛn so! Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo.
