< Psalms 45 >

1 [For the Chief Musician. Set to "The Lilies." A contemplation by the sons of Korah. A wedding song.] My heart overflows with a noble theme. I recite my verses for the king. My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.
Kora mma dwom. Ayeforɔhyia dwom. Botaeɛ bi a ɛdi mu akanyane mʼakoma ɛberɛ a merebɔ ɔhene mmrane no; me tɛkrɛma yɛ ɔtwerɛfoɔ kunini bi twerɛdua.
2 You are the most handsome of the sons of men. Grace has anointed your lips, therefore God has blessed you forever.
Wodi mu wɔ mmarima mu na wɔde adom bi asra wʼano, ɛsiane sɛ Onyankopɔn ahyira wo afebɔɔ no enti.
3 Gird your sword on your thigh, mighty one: your splendor and your majesty.
Fa wʼakofena bɔ wo nkyɛn mu, Ao Otumfoɔ; fa animuonyam ne kɛseyɛ fira.
4 In your majesty ride on victoriously on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness. Let your right hand display awesome deeds.
Fa wo kɛseyɛ mu kɔ wʼanim nkonimdie so wɔ nokorɛ, ahobrɛaseɛ ne tenenee mu; ma wo nsa nifa nna wo nnwuma a ɛyɛ nwanwa no adi.
5 Your arrows are sharp. The nations fall under you, with arrows in the heart of the king's enemies.
Ma wo bɛmma namnam no nhwere ɔhene atamfoɔ akoma mu; na ma amanaman nhwe wo nan ase.
6 Your throne, God, is forever and ever. A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.
Ao Onyankopɔn, wʼahennwa no bɛtena hɔ daa daa; tenenee ahempoma bɛyɛ wʼahennie no ahempoma.
7 You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your companions.
Wodɔ tenenee na wokyiri bɔne. Ɛno enti Onyankopɔn, wo Onyankopɔn de wo asi wo mfɛfoɔ so, na ɔde anigyeɛ ngo asra wo.
8 All your garments smell like myrrh and aloes and cassia. Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made you glad.
Kurobo, pɛperɛ ne bɛwewonua hwa agye wo batakari mu nyinaa; sankuo so nnwom a ɛfiri ahemfie a wɔde asonse asiesie ho mu ma wʼani gye.
9 Kings' daughters are among your honorable women. At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.
Ahemfo mmammaa ka wo mmaa atitire ho; wo nsa nifa so na ayeforɔ dehyeɛ a ɔhyɛ Ofir sikakɔkɔɔ gyina.
10 Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear. Forget your own people, and also your father's house.
Ao ɔbabaa tie, dwene ho na yɛ ɔsetie; ma wo werɛ mfiri wo nkurɔfoɔ ne wo agya fie.
11 So the king will desire your beauty, honor him, for he is your lord.
Wʼahoɔfɛ asɔ ɔhene no ani; di no nni, ɛfiri sɛ ɔno ne wo wura.
12 The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift. The rich among the people will seek your favor.
Tiro Babaa de ayɛyɛdeɛ bɛba; mmarima adefoɔ bɛdɛfɛdɛfɛ wo.
13 The princess inside is all glorious. Her clothing is interwoven with gold.
Ɔhene babaa a ɔwɔ ne piam no yɛ onimuonyamfoɔ wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ abobɔ nʼatadeɛ yuu mu.
14 She shall be led to the king in embroidered work. The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to you.
Ɔhyɛ ntadeɛ a wɔadi mu adwinneɛ na wɔde no kɔma ɔhene; ne mfɛfoɔ mmaabunu di nʼakyi na wɔde wɔn nyinaa brɛ wo.
15 With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led. They shall enter into the king's palace.
Wɔde ahosɛpɛ ne anigyeɛ kɔ mu; wɔhyɛne ɔhempɔn no ahemfie.
16 Your sons will take the place of your fathers. You shall make them princes in all the earth.
Wo mmammarima bɛsi wʼagyanom ananmu wobɛyɛ wɔn mmapɔmma wɔ asase no so nyinaa.
17 I will make your name to be remembered in all generations. Therefore the peoples shall give you thanks forever and ever.
Mɛma wɔakae wo wɔ awontoatoasoɔ nyinaa mu; ɛno enti amanaman bɛkamfo wo daa nyinaa. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ.
