< Psalms 20 >
1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
Dawid dwom. Awurade ntie wo wɔ wʼahohia mu; Yakob Nyankopɔn din mmɔ wo ho ban.
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
Ɔmfa mmoa mfi kronkronbea hɔ mmrɛ wo, na omfi Sion mmɛhyɛ wo den.
3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; (Selah)
Ɔnkae wʼafɔrebɔ nyinaa, na ɔmma wo hyew afɔre nsɔ nʼani.
4 Grant thee according to thy own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
Ɔmma wo nea wo koma pɛ, na wo nhyehyɛe nyinaa nyɛ yiye.
5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.
Yɛbɛbɔ ose bere a woadi nkonim, na yɛama yɛn frankaa so wɔ yɛn Nyankopɔn din mu. Awurade nyɛ wʼabisade nyinaa mma wo.
6 Now I know that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
Afei mahu sɛ Awurade ma nea wasra no no nkonimdi, ofi ne kronkronbea wɔ ɔsoro gye no so, ɔde ne nkonimdi tumi a ɛwɔ ne nsa nifa mu no.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
Ebinom de wɔn ho to wɔn nteaseɛnam so na afoforo nso, wɔn apɔnkɔ so, nanso yɛn de, yɛde yɛn ho to Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn din so.
8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are raised, and stand upright.
Wɔbrɛ wɔn ase ma wɔhwehwe ase, na yɛn de, yɛsɔre gyina kirebenn.
9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.
Awurade, ma ɔhene nkonimdi! Yɛfrɛ a, gye yɛn so! Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo.
