Psalms 61

1 TO THE OVERSEER. ON STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. BY DAVID. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.

Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔde sankuo na ɛtoɔ. Dawid dwom. Ao Onyankopɔn, tie me sufrɛ; tie me mpaeɛbɔ.

2 I call to You from the end of the land, In the feebleness of my heart, You lead me into a rock higher than I.

Mefiri asase ano frɛ wo, mefrɛ wo ɛfiri sɛ mʼakoma atɔ baha; fa me kɔ ɔbotan a ɛware sene me no so.

3 For You have been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.

Woayɛ me dwanekɔbea, aban a ɛyɛ den ma ɔtamfoɔ no.

4 I sojourn in Your tent for all ages, I trust in the secret place of Your wings. (Selah)

Me kɔn dɔ sɛ metena wo ntomadan no mu afebɔɔ na manya hintabea wɔ wo ntaban nwunu ase.

5 For You, O God, have listened to my vows, You have appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Your Name.

Woate me bɔhyɛ, Ao Onyankopɔn; na wode wɔn a wɔsuro wo din no agyapadeɛ ama me.

6 You add days to the days of the king, His years as generation and generation.

To ɔhene nkwa nna mu bebree; na ne mfeɛ mfiri awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nkɔduru awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ.

7 He dwells before God for all time, Appoint kindness and truth—they keep him.

Ma ɔnni ɔhene wɔ Onyankopɔn anim daa. Fa wʼadɔeɛ ne wo nokorɛ bɔ ne ho ban.

8 So I praise Your Name forever, When I pay my vows day by day!

Afei mɛto ayɛyie dwom ama wo din daa na madi me bɔhyɛ so daa nyinaa.
