1 To the choirmaster with stringed instruments a psalm of David. When call I answer me - O God of righteousness my in the distress you have made wide for me show favor to me and hear prayer my.
Dawid dwom. Sɛ mesu frɛ wo a, gye me so, Ao, me tenenee Onyankopɔn. Ma me ahomegyeɛ wɔ mʼahohia mu; hunu me mmɔbɔ na tie me mpaeɛbɔ.
2 O sons of man until when? [will] honor my [become] ignominy will you love?! vanity will you seek? falsehood (Selah)
Ao mmarima, ɛnkɔsi da bɛn na mo bɛdane mʼanimuonyam ahohora? Ɛnkɔsi da bɛn na mobɛdɔ nneɛma hunu na moadi ahoni huhuo akyi?
3 And know that he has set apart Yahweh [the] faithful for himself Yahweh he will hear when call I to him.
Hunu sɛ Awurade ayi deɛ ɔwɔ nyamesu ama ne ho; Awurade bɛtie, sɛ mesu mefrɛ no a.
4 Tremble and may not you sin speak in heart your on bed your and be silent (Selah)
Mo bo fu a, monnyɛ bɔne; sɛ modeda mo mpa so a, monyɛ komm na monhwehwɛ mo akoma mu.
5 Sacrifice sacrifices of righteousness and trust to Yahweh.
Mommɔ afɔdeɛ a ɛfata na momfa mo werɛ nhyɛ Awurade mu.
6 Many [people] [are] saying who? will he show us good lift up! on us [the] light of face your O Yahweh.
Nnipa bebree bisa sɛ: “Hwan na ɔbɛtumi ayɛ yɛn adɔeɛ?” Ao Awurade, ma wʼanim hann no nhyerɛn yɛn so.
7 You have put joy in heart my more than a time [when] grain their and new wine their they abound.
Wode anigyeɛ mmorosoɔ ahyɛ mʼakoma ma asene ɛberɛ a wɔn aburoo ne nsã foforɔ abu so no.
8 In peace together I will lie down and I may sleep for you O Yahweh alone to security you caused to dwell me.
