Psalms 21
1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The King shall reioyce in thy strength, O Lord: yea how greatly shall he reioyce in thy saluation!
Dawid dwom. Awurade, ɔhene di anigye wɔ wʼahoɔden mu. Nʼani gye mmoroso wɔ nkonimdi a woma no nti!
2 Thou hast giuen him his hearts desire, and hast not denyed him the request of his lips. (Selah)
Woama no nea ne koma pɛ; woamfa nʼabisade ankame no.
3 For thou diddest preuent him with liberall blessings, and didest set a crowne of pure gold vpon his head.
Wode nhyira a edi mu hyiaa no na wode sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa ahenkyɛw hyɛɛ no.
4 He asked life of thee, and thou gauest him a long life for euer and euer.
Obisaa wo hɔ nkwa, na wode maa no, nna tenten a enni awiei.
5 His glory is great in thy saluation: dignitie and honour hast thou laid vpon him.
Nkonimdi a woma no nti, nʼanuonyam so; wode kɛseyɛ ne nidi adom no.
6 For thou hast set him as blessings for euer: thou hast made him glad with the ioy of thy countenance.
Ampa ara, woama no nhyira a ɛnsa da na woama no ahosɛpɛw wɔ wʼanim anigye mu.
7 Because the King trusteth in the Lord, and in the mercie of the most High, he shall not slide.
Ɔhene no de ne ho to Awurade so; Ɔsorosoroni no nokware dɔ no nti, ɔrenhinhim.
8 Thine hand shall finde out all thine enemies, and thy right hand shall finde out them that hate thee.
Wo nsa bɛka wʼatamfo nyinaa; wo nsa nifa beso wɔn a wokyi wo no mu.
9 Thou shalt make them like a fierie ouen in time of thine anger: the Lord shall destroy them in his wrath, and the fire shall deuoure them.
Bere a wubeyi wo ho adi no wobɛyɛ wɔn sɛ fononoo a mu adɔ. Awurade fi nʼabufuwhyew mu bɛmene wɔn, na ne gya no ahyew wɔn.
10 Their fruite shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seede from the children of men.
Wobɛtɔre wɔn ase wɔ asase so, na wɔn asefo afi adesamma mu.
11 For they intended euill against thee, and imagined mischiefe, but they shall not preuaile.
Ɛwɔ mu sɛ wɔbɔ pɔw tia wo na wɔyɛ nhyehyɛe bɔne, nanso wɔrenni nkonim;
12 Therefore shalt thou put them aparte, and the strings of thy bowe shalt thou make readie against their faces.
efisɛ wobɛma wɔasan wɔn akyi bere a woatwe bɛmma akyerɛ wɔn so no.
13 Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: so will we sing and prayse thy power.
Yɛma wo so, Awurade, wɔ wʼahoɔden mu; yɛbɛto nnwom na yɛakamfo wo kɛseyɛ. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Wɔto no sɛnea wɔto “Adekyee forote” dwom.
