Psalms 59
1 To him that excelleth. Destroy not. A Psalme of David on Michtam. When Saul sent and they did watch the house to kill him. O my God, deliuer mee from mine enemies: defend me from them that rise vp against me.
Wɔto no sɛdeɛ wɔto “Mma Ɛnsɛe No” sankuo nne so. Dawid “miktam” dwom. Ɔtoo no ɛberɛ a Saulo soma kɔwɛn Dawid fie sɛ wɔbɛkum no. Ao Onyankopɔn, gye me firi mʼatamfoɔ nsam; bɔ me ho ban firi wɔn a wɔtaa me so no ho.
2 Deliuer me from the wicked doers, and saue me from the bloody men.
Gye me firi amumuyɛfoɔ nsam. Gye me nkwa firi mogyapɛfoɔ nsam.
3 For loe, they haue layd waite for my soule: the mightie men are gathered against me, not for mine offence, nor for my sinne, O Lord.
Hwɛ sɛdeɛ wɔatɛ repɛ me akum me akokobirefoɔ bɔ pɔ bɔne tia me a ɛnyɛ mfomsoɔ anaa bɔne bi a mayɛ enti, Ao Awurade.
4 They runne and prepare themselues without a fault on my part: arise therefore to assist me, and beholde.
Menyɛɛ mfomsoɔ bi, nanso wɔayɛ krado sɛ wɔbɛto ahyɛ me so. Sɔre bɛgye me; hwɛ mʼamanehunu!
5 Euen thou, O Lord God of hostes, O God of Israel awake to visit all the heathen, and be not merciful vnto all that transgresse maliciously. (Selah)
Ao Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn, Israel Onyankopɔn, ma wo ho so na twe amanaman no nyinaa aso; nhunu amumuyɛfoɔ nkontompofoɔ no mmɔbɔ.
6 They goe to and from in the euening: they barke like dogs, and goe about the citie.
Wɔsane ba anwummerɛ, wɔpɔ so sɛ nkraman, na wɔkyinkyin kuropɔn no mu.
7 Behold, they brag in their talke, and swords are in their lips: for, Who, say they, doeth heare?
Hwɛ deɛ wɔfe firi wɔn anomu, wɔfe akofena firi wɔn anomu na wɔka sɛ: “Hwan na ɔteɛ”?
8 But thou, O Lord, shalt haue them in derision, and thou shalt laugh at all the heathen.
Nanso, wo Awurade, wosere wɔn; wodi saa aman no nyinaa ho fɛw.
9 He is strong: but I will waite vpon thee: for God is my defence.
Ao mʼAhoɔden, mehwɛ wo; wo, Ao Onyankopɔn ne mʼabankɛseɛ,
10 My mercifull God will preuent me: God wil let me see my desire vpon mine enemies.
me Onyankopɔn a ɔyɛ ɔdɔ. Onyankopɔn bɛdi mʼanim na ɔbɛma mahwɛ wɔn a wɔbɔ me ahohora no haa.
11 Slay them not, least my people forget it: but scatter them abroad by thy power, and put them downe, O Lord our shield,
Nanso nkum wɔn, Ao Awurade yɛn akokyɛm, na me nkurɔfoɔ werɛ amfiri wɔn. Wo tumi mu no ma wɔnnantenante, na brɛ wɔn ase.
12 For the sinne of their mouth, and the words of their lips: and let them be taken in their pride, euen for their periurie and lies, that they speake.
Bɔne a ɛfiri wɔn anomu, ne wɔn ano nsɛm enti ma wɔn ahomasoɔ nkyekyere wɔn. Abususɛm a wɔka ne atorɔ a wɔtwa enti,
13 Consume them in thy wrath: consume them that they be no more: and let them knowe that God ruleth in Iaakob, euen vnto the ends of the world. (Selah)
sɛe wɔn wɔ abufuhyeɛ mu, kɔsi sɛ wɔn ase bɛtɔre. Afei ɛbɛma asase so afanan nyinaa ahunu sɛ Onyankopɔn di Yakob so.
14 And in the euening they shall go to and from, and barke like dogs, and go about the citie.
Wɔsane ba anwummerɛ, wɔpɔ so sɛ nkraman na wɔkyinkyin kuropɔn no mu.
15 They shall runne here and there for meate: and surely they shall not be satisfied, though they tary all night.
Wɔkyinkyini pɛ aduane na sɛ wɔammee a, wɔsu bobom.
16 But I wil sing of thy power, and will prayse thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast bene my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Nanso mɛto wʼahoɔden ho dwom, mɛto wʼadɔeɛ ho dwom anɔpa; ɛfiri sɛ woyɛ mʼabankɛseɛ, mʼahintaeɛ wɔ ahohia mmerɛ mu.
17 Vnto thee, O my Strength, wil I sing: for God is my defence, and my mercifull God.
Ao mʼAhoɔden, mɛto ayɛyi dwom ama wo; wo, Ao Onyankopɔn, ne mʼabankɛseɛ, me Onyankopɔn a ɔyɛ ɔdɔ. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔto no sɛdeɛ wɔto “Susan Edut.”
