Psalms 86
1 A prayer of David. Incline thine eare, O Lord, and heare me: for I am poore and needy.
Dawid mpaeɛbɔ. Ao Awurade, tie me na gye me so, ɛfiri sɛ meyɛ ohiani ne mmɔborɔni.
2 Preserue thou my soule, for I am mercifull: my God, saue thou thy seruant, that trusteth in thee.
Bɔ me nkwa ho ban, ɛfiri sɛ mede me ho ama wo. Wone me Onyankopɔn, gye wʼakoa a ɔde ne ho to wo so.
3 Be mercifull vnto me, O Lord: for I crie vpon thee continually.
Ao Awurade, hunu me mmɔbɔ, na mesu frɛ wo daa nyinaa.
4 Reioyce the soule of thy seruant: for vnto thee, O Lord, doe I lift vp my soule.
Ma wʼakoa ani nnye, na wo Awurade, wo nkyɛn na mema me kra so ba.
5 For thou, Lord, art good and mercifull, and of great kindenes vnto all them, that call vpon thee.
Ao Awurade, woyɛ, na wode bɔne kyɛ, wowɔ ɔdɔ mmorosoɔ ma wɔn a wɔsu frɛ wo nyinaa.
6 Giue eare, Lord, vnto my prayer, and hearken to the voyce of my supplication.
Ao Awurade, tie me mpaeɛbɔ; tie me mmɔborɔ su.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call vpon thee: for thou hearest me.
Mɛfrɛ wo mʼahohia da mu, na wobɛgye me so.
8 Among the gods there is none like thee, O Lord, and there is none that can doe like thy workes.
Ao Awurade, onyame bi nni hɔ a ɔte sɛ wo; na wɔn nnwuma biara nto wo deɛ.
9 All nations, whome thou hast made, shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and shall glorifie thy Name.
Ao Awurade, aman a woakyekyere nyinaa bɛba abɛsom wo wɔ wʼanim; wɔbɛba abɛhyɛ wo din animuonyam.
10 For thou art great and doest wonderous things: thou art God alone.
Woyɛ kɛseɛ, na woyɛ anwanwa nnwuma; wo nko ara ne Onyankopɔn.
11 Teach me thy way, O Lord, and I will walke in thy trueth: knit mine heart vnto thee, that I may feare thy Name.
Ao Awurade, kyerɛ me wʼakwan, na mɛnante wo nokorɛ mu; ma memfa mʼakoma nyinaa mma wo na masuro wo din.
12 I wil prayse thee, O Lord my God, with all mine heart: yea, I wil glorifie thy Name for euer.
Mede mʼakoma nyinaa mɛyi wo ayɛ, Ao Awurade me Onyankopɔn na mahyɛ wo din animuonyam daa nyinaa.
13 For great is thy mercie toward me, and thou hast deliuered my soule from the lowest graue. (Sheol h7585)
Ɛfiri sɛ, ɔdɔ a wode dɔ me no so; woayi me afiri owuo amena mu tɔnn. (Sheol h7585)
14 O God, the proude are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men haue sought my soule, and haue not set thee before them.
Ao Onyankopɔn, ahomasofoɔ ato ahyɛ me so; basabasayɛfoɔ kuo repɛ me akum me, nnipa a wɔmmfa wo nyɛ hwee no.
15 But thou, O Lord, art a pitifull God and mercifull, slowe to anger and great in kindenes and trueth.
Nanso wo, Ao Awurade, woyɛ mmɔborɔhunufoɔ ne ɔdomfoɔ Onyankopɔn, wo bo kyɛre fu, na wʼadɔeɛ ne wo nokorɛ dɔɔso.
16 Turne vnto me, and haue mercy vpon me: giue thy strength vnto thy seruant, and saue the sonne of thine handmayd.
Dane wʼani hwɛ me na dom me; fa wʼahoɔden ma wʼakoa na gye wʼafenaa babarima nkwa.
17 Shew a token of thy goodnes towarde me, that they which hate me, may see it, and be ashamed, because thou, O Lord, hast holpen me and comforted me.
Ma me wo papayɛ ho nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ, na mʼatamfoɔ nhunu na wɔn anim ngu ase na wo Ao Awurade, wo na woaboa me akyekye me werɛ.
