Psalms 101

1 [A Psalm by David.] I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To you, LORD, I will sing praises.

Dawid Dwom. Mɛto wo dɔ ne wo tenenee ho dwom; Ao Awurade, mɛto ayɛyie dwom ama wo.

2 I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.

Mɛhwɛ yie abu ɔbra a ɛho teɛ. Dabɛn na wobɛba me nkyɛn? Mede akoma a afɔdie nni mu bɛnante me fie.

3 I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.

Meremfa mʼani nsi adeɛ a ɛyɛ tane biara so. Mekyiri nnipa a wɔnni gyidie; Me ne wɔn nni hwee yɛ.

4 A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.

Nnipa a wɔn akoma yɛ kontonkyi remmɛn me; me ne bɔne nni hwee yɛ.

5 I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won't tolerate one who is haughty and conceited.

Obiara a ɔdi ne yɔnko ho nsekuro wɔ kɔkoam no, ɔno na mɛsɛe; deɛ ɔwɔ ahantan ani ne ahomasoɔ akoma, ɔno na merennyegye ne so.

6 My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.

Mʼani bɛkɔ anokwafoɔ a wɔwɔ asase no soɔ no so na me ne wɔn atena; deɛ ne nanteɛ ho nni asɛm no, ɔno na ɔbɛsom me.

7 He who practices deceit won't dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won't be established before my eyes.

Deɛ ɔyɛ ɔdaadaafoɔ biara rentena me fie; deɛ ɔtwa nkontompo no rennyina mʼanim.

8 Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land; to cut off all evildoers from the LORD's city.

Adekyeeɛ biara, mɛsɛe amumuyɛfoɔ a wɔwɔ asase yi so nyinaa; na mapam ɔdebɔneyɛfoɔ biara afiri Awurade kuropɔn mu.
