Psalms 5
1 Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
Dawid dwom. Ao Awurade, yɛ aso ma me nsɛm na dwene mʼapinisie ho.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto you will I pray.
Tie me mmoa ho sufrɛ, me Ɔhene ne me Onyankopɔn, ɛfiri sɛ wo na mebɔ wo mpaeɛ.
3 My voice shall you hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto you, and will look up.
Ao, Awurade, wote me nne anɔpa; anɔpa, mede mʼadesrɛ ba wʼanim na mede anidasoɔ twɛn.
4 For you are not a God that has pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with you.
Wonyɛ Onyankopɔn a wʼani gye bɔne ho; na amumuyɛfoɔ rentumi ne wo ntena.
5 The foolish shall not stand in your sight: you hate all workers of iniquity.
Ahantanfoɔ rentumi nnyina wʼanim; wokyiri wɔn a wɔyɛ bɔne nyinaa.
6 You shall destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will detest the bloody and deceitful man.
Wosɛe wɔn a wɔka atorɔsɛm; Awurade kyiri mogyapɛfoɔ ne asisifoɔ.
7 But as for me, I will come into your house in the multitude of your mercy: and in your fear will I worship toward your holy temple.
Nanso me, wo mmɔborɔhunu bebrebe enti, mɛba wo fie; na anidie mu na mɛkoto akyerɛ wʼasɔredan kronkron no.
8 Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of mine enemies; make your way straight before my face.
Ao Awurade kyerɛ me ɛkwan wɔ wo tenenee mu mʼatamfoɔ enti, bɔ wo kwan tee wɔ mʼanim.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open tomb; they flatter with their tongue.
Wɔn anom asɛm baako mpo nyɛ nokorɛ; ɔsɛeɛ ahyɛ wɔn akoma ma. Wɔn menewa yɛ damena a ɛso abue wɔde wɔn tɛkrɛma ka nnaadaasɛm.
10 Destroy you them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against you.
Ao, Onyankopɔn, bu wɔn fɔ! Ma wɔn pɔ bɔne nyɛ wɔn ahweaseɛ. Pam wɔn ɛsiane wɔn bɔne dodoɔ no enti, ɛfiri sɛ wɔasɔre atia wo.
11 But let all those that put their trust in you rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because you defend them: let them also that love your name be joyful in you.
Nanso, ma wɔn a wɔdwane ba wo nkyɛn no ani nnye; ma wɔmfa anigyeɛ nto dwom daa. Trɛ wo banbɔ mu wɔ wɔn so, na wɔn a wɔdɔ wo din no ma wɔn ani nnye wɔ wo mu.
12 For you, LORD, will bless the righteous; with favour will you compass him as with a shield.
Ao Awurade, ampa ara, wohyira teneneefoɔ; na wode wʼayamyɛ twa wɔn ho hyia te sɛ akokyɛm. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ sɛ ɔmfa sankuhoma nto wɔ Seminit ɛnne so.
