Psalms 85
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. You have accepted, O YHWH, Your land, You have turned [to] the captivity of Jacob.
Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Kora mma dwom. Ao Awurade wohunuu wʼasase mmɔbɔ; wode Yakob ahonyadeɛ sane maa no.
2 You have carried away 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 gathered up all Your wrath, You have turned back from the fierceness of Your anger.
Wode wʼabofuo too nkyɛn na wodane firii wʼabufuhyeɛ ho.
4 Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, And make void Your anger with us.
Sane gye yɛn bio, Ao Onyankopɔn, yɛn Gyefoɔ, na ma wʼani nnye yɛn ho.
5 Are You angry against us for all time? Do You draw out Your anger To generation and generation?
Wo bo bɛfu yɛn akɔsi daa anaa? Wʼabofuo bɛtoa so akɔ awoɔ ntoantoasoɔ nyinaa so anaa?
6 Do You not turn back? You revive us, And Your people rejoice in You.
Worenhyɛ yɛn den bio, na ama wo nkurɔfoɔ asɛpɛ wɔn ho wɔ wo mu anaa?
7 Show us, O YHWH, your kindness, And You give to us Your salvation.
Ao Awurade, kyerɛ yɛn wo dɔ a ɛnsa da no, na ma yɛn wo nkwagyeɛ no.
8 I hear what God, YHWH, speaks, For He speaks peace to His people, And to His saints, and they do not turn back 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 to those fearing Him, That glory may dwell in our land.
Ampa ara, ne nkwagyeɛ bɛne wɔn a wɔsuro no, na nʼanimuonyam bɛtena yɛn asase so.
10 Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,
Ɔdɔ ne nokorɛdie bɛhyia, na tenenee ne asomdwoeɛ bɛfe wɔn ho wɔn ho ano.
11 Truth springs up from the earth, And righteousness looks out from the heavens,
Nokorɛdie bɛpue afiri asase no so, na tenenee ahwɛ afiri soro.
12 YHWH also gives that which is good, And our land gives its increase.
Awurade bɛma yɛn deɛ ɛyɛ ampa ara na yɛn asase bɛma ne nnɔbaeɛ.
13 Righteousness goes before Him, And makes a way for His footsteps!
Tenenee di nʼanim siesie ɛkwan ma nʼanammɔntuo.
