Psalms 32
1 David’s An Instructive Psalm. How happy is he whose transgression is forgiven! whose sin is pardoned!
Dawid dwom. Nhyira ne wɔn a wɔde wɔn amumuyɛ akyɛ wɔn, na wɔakata wɔn bɔne so.
2 How happy the son of earth, to whom Yahweh will not reckon iniquity! and in whose spirit is no guile!
Nhyira nka onipa a Awurade mmu ne bɔne ngu ne so, na nnaadaa nni ne honhom mu.
3 When I kept silence, my bones became worn out, Through my groaning all the day;
Ɛberɛ a meyɛɛ komm no, me nnompe yɛɛ mmrɛ apinie a mesii no da mu nyinaa enti.
4 For, day and night, heavy upon me, was thy hand, —Changed was my life-sap into the drought of summer. (Selah)
Awia ne anadwo wo nsa yɛɛ den wɔ me so; mʼahoɔden saeɛ sɛdeɛ awiaberɛ mu hyeɛ ma biribi yɛ mmerɛ.
5 My sin, would I own unto thee, and, mine iniquity, not hide, I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Yahweh, And, thou, didst forgive the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
Afei, megyee me bɔne too mu. Mankata mʼamumuyɛ so. Mekaa sɛ, “Mɛka me bɔne akyerɛ Awurade,” na wode me bɔne ho afɔdie kyɛɛ me.
6 For this cause, will every man of lovingkindness pray unto thee, in time to obtain, —Surely, in the overflow of many waters, unto him, shall they not reach.
Enti, ma obiara a ɔwɔ nyamesu mmɔ wo mpaeɛ ɛberɛ a wɔhunu woɔ; ampa ara sɛ nsuo akɛseɛ yiri a, ɛrenka no.
7 Thou, art a hiding-place for me, From distress, wilt thou preserve me, —With shouts of deliverance, wilt thou compass me about. (Selah)
Wone me hintabea; wobɛbɔ me ho ban wɔ amanehunu mu na wode nkwagyeɛ nnwom atwa me ho ahyia.
8 I will make thee discreet, I will point out to thee the way which thou must go, I will fix upon thee mine eye.
Mɛkyerɛkyerɛ wo ɛkwan a wobɛfa soɔ mɛtu wo fo na mahwɛ wo so.
9 Do not ye become like a horse, like a mule, without discernment, —With the bit and bridle of his mouth, [hast thou] to restrain him, —He will not come near unto thee.
Nyɛ sɛ ɔpɔnkɔ anaa afunumpɔnkɔ a ɔnni nteaseɛ enti wɔde nnareka ne ahoma na ɛdanedane no sɛ ɛbɛyɛ a wɔbɛba wo nkyɛn.
10 Many pains, hath the lawless one, —But, he that trusteth in Yahweh, Lovingkindness, shall compass him about.
Ɔmumuyɛfoɔ amanehunu dɔɔso, nanso Awurade adɔeɛ a ɛnsa da no, ɛtwa onipa a ɔde ne ho to no so no ho hyia.
11 Rejoice in Yahweh and exult, O ye righteous, Yea, shout in triumph, all ye upright in heart!
Monni ahurisie na mo ani nnye wɔ Awurade mu, mo teneneefoɔ; monto dwom, mo a mo akoma mu teɛ.
