< Psalms 45 >
1 My heart is composing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made concerning the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
Kora mma dwom. Ayeforɔhyia dwom. Botaeɛ bi a ɛdi mu akanyane mʼakoma ɛberɛ a merebɔ ɔhene mmrane no; me tɛkrɛma yɛ ɔtwerɛfoɔ kunini bi twerɛdua.
2 You are fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into your lips: therefore God has blessed you for ever.
Wodi mu wɔ mmarima mu na wɔde adom bi asra wʼano, ɛsiane sɛ Onyankopɔn ahyira wo afebɔɔ no enti.
3 Gird your sword upon your thigh, O most mighty, with your glory and your majesty.
Fa wʼakofena bɔ wo nkyɛn mu, Ao Otumfoɔ; fa animuonyam ne kɛseyɛ fira.
4 And in your majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and your right hand shall teach you terrible things.
Fa wo kɛseyɛ mu kɔ wʼanim nkonimdie so wɔ nokorɛ, ahobrɛaseɛ ne tenenee mu; ma wo nsa nifa nna wo nnwuma a ɛyɛ nwanwa no adi.
5 your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under you.
Ma wo bɛmma namnam no nhwere ɔhene atamfoɔ akoma mu; na ma amanaman nhwe wo nan ase.
6 Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of your kingdom is a right sceptre.
Ao Onyankopɔn, wʼahennwa no bɛtena hɔ daa daa; tenenee ahempoma bɛyɛ wʼahennie no ahempoma.
7 You love righteousness, and hate wickedness: therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
Wodɔ tenenee na wokyiri bɔne. Ɛno enti Onyankopɔn, wo Onyankopɔn de wo asi wo mfɛfoɔ so, na ɔde anigyeɛ ngo asra wo.
8 All your garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made you glad.
Kurobo, pɛperɛ ne bɛwewonua hwa agye wo batakari mu nyinaa; sankuo so nnwom a ɛfiri ahemfie a wɔde asonse asiesie ho mu ma wʼani gye.
9 Kings' daughters were among your honourable women: upon your right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
Ahemfo mmammaa ka wo mmaa atitire ho; wo nsa nifa so na ayeforɔ dehyeɛ a ɔhyɛ Ofir sikakɔkɔɔ gyina.
10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear; forget also your own people, and your father's house;
Ao ɔbabaa tie, dwene ho na yɛ ɔsetie; ma wo werɛ mfiri wo nkurɔfoɔ ne wo agya fie.
11 So shall the king greatly desire your beauty: for he is your Lord; and worship you him.
Wʼahoɔfɛ asɔ ɔhene no ani; di no nni, ɛfiri sɛ ɔno ne wo wura.
12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall implore your favour.
Tiro Babaa de ayɛyɛdeɛ bɛba; mmarima adefoɔ bɛdɛfɛdɛfɛ wo.
13 The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.
Ɔhene babaa a ɔwɔ ne piam no yɛ onimuonyamfoɔ wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ abobɔ nʼatadeɛ yuu mu.
14 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto you.
Ɔhyɛ ntadeɛ a wɔadi mu adwinneɛ na wɔde no kɔma ɔhene; ne mfɛfoɔ mmaabunu di nʼakyi na wɔde wɔn nyinaa brɛ wo.
15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace.
Wɔde ahosɛpɛ ne anigyeɛ kɔ mu; wɔhyɛne ɔhempɔn no ahemfie.
16 Instead of your fathers shall be your children, whom you may make princes in all the earth.
Wo mmammarima bɛsi wʼagyanom ananmu wobɛyɛ wɔn mmapɔmma wɔ asase no so nyinaa.
17 I will make your name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise you for ever and ever.
Mɛma wɔakae wo wɔ awontoatoasoɔ nyinaa mu; ɛno enti amanaman bɛkamfo wo daa nyinaa. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ.
