Psalms 112

1 Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!

Monkamfo Awurade. Nhyira nka onipa a ɔsuro Awurade na ɔnya nʼahyɛdeɛ mu anigyeɛ pii.

2 Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.

Ne mma bɛyɛ atumfoɔ wɔ asase no so; teneneefoɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ bɛnya nhyira.

3 Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.

Ahonya ne sika wɔ ne fie, na ne tenenee tena hɔ daa.

4 Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.

Esum mu mpo hann pue ma nnipa a wɔtene, ma ɔdomfoɔ, mmɔborɔhunufoɔ ne ɔnokwafoɔ.

5 Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.

Yiedie bɛba deɛ ne tirim yɛ mmrɛ na ɔde fɛm kwa. Yiedie bɛba deɛ ɔde atɛntenenee yɛ ne nneɛma so.

6 They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.

Ampa ara, ɔrenhinhim da biara da; wɔbɛkae onipa tenenee daa.

7 They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.

Ɔte asɛmmɔne a, ɛmmɔ ne hu; nʼakoma atim wɔ Awurade mu ahotosoɔ mu.

8 They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.

Nʼakoma wɔ banbɔ, na ɔnsuro; awieeɛ no, ɔde nkonimdie bɛhyia nʼatamfoɔ.

9 They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.

Ɔto nʼakyɛdeɛ pete aman so ma ahiafoɔ, ne tenenee wɔ hɔ daa; wɔbɛkae wɔn daa na wɔahyɛ wɔn animuonyam.

10 The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.

Omumuyɛfoɔ bɛhunu ama ayɛ no yea, ɔbɛtwere ne se na wafɔn; omumuyɛfoɔ tirimpɔ bɛyɛ kwa.
