< Psalms 54 >
1 To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of David, to give instruction. When the Ziphims came and said unto Saul, Is not David hid among us? Save mee, O God, by thy Name, and by thy power iudge me.
Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔbɔ no sankuo so. Dawid “maskil” dwom. Ɔtoo no ɛberɛ a Sififoɔ kɔka kyerɛɛ Saulo sɛ, “Dawid abɛhinta wɔ yɛn mu.” Ao Onyankopɔn, gye me wɔ wo din mu; fa wo tumi di mʼasɛm ma me.
2 O God, heare my prayer: hearken vnto the wordes of my mouth.
Ao Onyankopɔn, tie me mpaeɛbɔ; tie mʼanom nsɛm.
3 For strangers are risen vp against me, and tyrants seeke my soule: they haue not set God before them. (Selah)
Ahɔhoɔ reto ahyɛ me so. Atirimuɔdenfoɔ repɛ me akum me; nnipa a wɔmmfa Onyankopɔn nyɛ hwee.
4 Beholde, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that vpholde my soule.
Ampa ara, Onyankopɔn ne me ɔboafoɔ; Awurade ne me hwɛfoɔ.
5 He shall rewarde euill vnto mine enemies: Oh cut them off in thy trueth!
Ma mmusuo nkyim mmra wɔn a wɔdi me ho nsekuro so; wo nokorɛdie mu, sɛe wɔn.
6 Then I will sacrifice freely vnto thee: I wil praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.
Mɛfiri me pɛ mu abɔ afɔdeɛ ama wo; Ao Awurade, mɛyi wo din ayɛ, ɛfiri sɛ ɛyɛ.
7 For he hath deliuered me out of al trouble, and mine eye hath seene my desire vpon mine enemies.
Woagye me afiri me haw nyinaa mu, na mʼani ahunu nkonimdie wɔ mʼatamfoɔ so.
