Psalms 85

1 Lord, you have been favorable to your land: you have brought back the captivity of Jacob.

Kora mma dwom. Ao Awurade wohunuu wʼasase mmɔbɔ; wode Yakob ahonyadeɛ sane maa no.

2 You have forgiven the iniquity of your people, you have covered all their sin. (Selah)

Wode wo nkurɔfoɔ bɔne kyɛɛ wɔn na wokataa wɔn nnebɔne nyinaa so.

3 You have taken away all your wrath: you have turned yourself from the fierceness of your anger.

Wode wʼabofuo too nkyɛn na wodane firii wʼabufuhyeɛ ho.

4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause your anger toward us to cease.

Sane gye yɛn bio, Ao Onyankopɔn, yɛn Gyefoɔ, na ma wʼani nnye yɛn ho.

5 Will you be angry with us for ever? will you draw out your anger to all generations?

Wo bo bɛfu yɛn akɔsi daa anaa? Wʼabofuo bɛtoa so akɔ awoɔ ntoantoasoɔ nyinaa so anaa?

6 Will you not revive us again: that your people may rejoice in you?

Worenhyɛ yɛn den bio, na ama wo nkurɔfoɔ asɛpɛ wɔn ho wɔ wo mu anaa?

7 Show us your mercy, O LORD, and grant us your salvation.

Ao Awurade, kyerɛ yɛn wo dɔ a ɛnsa da no, na ma yɛn wo nkwagyeɛ no.

8 I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

Mɛtie deɛ Awurade Onyankopɔn bɛka. Ɔde asomdwoeɛ hyɛ ne nkurɔfoɔ, ahotefoɔ no bɔ, enti ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔsane kɔ agyimisɛm ho.

9 Surely his salvation is near them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

Ampa ara, ne nkwagyeɛ bɛne wɔn a wɔsuro no, na nʼanimuonyam bɛtena yɛn asase so.

10 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

Ɔdɔ ne nokorɛdie bɛhyia, na tenenee ne asomdwoeɛ bɛfe wɔn ho wɔn ho ano.

11 Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

Nokorɛdie bɛpue afiri asase no so, na tenenee ahwɛ afiri soro.

12 Yes, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase.

Awurade bɛma yɛn deɛ ɛyɛ ampa ara na yɛn asase bɛma ne nnɔbaeɛ.

13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.

Tenenee di nʼanim siesie ɛkwan ma nʼanammɔntuo.
