Psalms 108
1 “A song or psalm of David.” My heart is firm, O God; I will sing and give praise, even with my spirit.
Dawid dwom. Ao Onyankopɔn, mʼakoma atɔ me yam; mede me kra nyinaa bɛto wʼayɛyie dwom.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I will wake up the morning-dawn.
Monyane, sankuo ne bɛnta! Mɛnyane anɔpahema.
3 I will give thee thanks among the people, O Lord: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
Ao Awurade, mɛkamfo wo wɔ aman no mu; mɛto wo ho dwom wɔ nnipa no mu.
4 For great above the heavens is thy kindness, and thy truth reacheth even unto the skies.
Wʼadɔeɛ so, ɛkorɔn sene ɔsoro; wo nokorɛdie duru ewiem.
5 Exalt thyself above the heavens, O God; and above all the earth thy glory.
Ao Onyankopɔn, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔma wo so tra ɔsoro, na ama wʼanimuonyam aba asase nyinaa so.
6 In order that thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand, and answer me.
Fa wo nsa nifa gye yɛn na boa yɛn, na ama wɔn a wodɔ wɔn no anya nkwa.
7 God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will I measure out.
Onyankopɔn akasa afiri ne kronkronbea sɛ, “Nkonim mu na mɛkyɛ Sekem mu na masusu Sukot Bɔnhwa.
8 Mine id Gil'ad, and mine is Menasseh; Ephraim also is the strong-hold of my head; of Judah are my chiefs.
Gilead yɛ me dea; Manase nso saa ara; Efraim yɛ me dadeɛ kyɛ, Yuda yɛ mʼahempoma.
9 Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
Moab yɛ me dwaresɛn, Edom so na meto me mpaboa guo; Filistia so na mebɔ ose.”
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? who will lead me as far as Edom?
Hwan na ɔde me bɛkɔ kuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no mu? Hwan na ɔbɛdi mʼanim akɔ Edom?
11 Behold, it is thou, O God, who hast cast us off; and thou, O God, goest not forth with our armies.
Ao Onyankopɔn, ɛnyɛ wo na woapo yɛn? Wo ne yɛn nsraadɔm renkɔ ɔsa bio anaa?
12 Give us help against the assailant; for vain is the help of man.
Boa yɛn tia ɔtamfoɔ no, na ɔdasani mmoa nka hwee.
13 Through God shall we do valiantly; for he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
Onyankopɔn wɔ yɛn afa yi, yɛbɛdi nkonim, na ɔbɛtiatia yɛn atamfoɔ so. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ no.
