< Psalms 101 >
1 A Psalme of David. I will sing mercie and iudgement: vnto thee, O Lord, will I sing.
Dawid Dwom. Mɛto wo dɔ ne wo trenee ho nnwom; Awurade, mɛto ayeyi nnwom ama wo.
2 I will doe wisely in the perfite way, till thou commest to me: I will walke in the vprightnes of mine heart in the middes of mine house.
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 wil set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the worke of them that fall away: it shall not cleaue vnto me.
Merennye ade a ɛyɛ tan biara nto mu. Mikyi nnipa a wonni gyidi nneyɛe; meremfa me ho mmata ho.
4 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will knowe none euill.
Nnipa a wɔn koma yɛ kɔntɔnkye remmɛn me; me ne bɔne nni hwee yɛ.
5 Him that priuily slandereth his neighbour, wil I destroy: him that hath a proude looke and hie heart, I cannot suffer.
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 Mine eyes shalbe vnto the faithfull of the lande, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfite way, he shall serue 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 There shall no deceitful person dwell within mine house: he that telleth lyes, shall not remaine in my sight.
Nea ɔyɛ ɔdaadaafo biara rentena me fi; nea otwa nkontompo no rennyina mʼanim.
8 Betimes will I destroy all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off all the workers of iniquitie from the Citie of the Lord.
Adekyee biara, mɛsɛe amumɔyɛfo a wɔwɔ asase yi so nyinaa; na mapam ɔdebɔneyɛni biara afi Awurade kuropɔn mu.
