< Psalms 43 >
1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
Ao Onyankopɔn, bu me bem, na ka mʼasɛm a ɛtia ɔman a wɔnnsuro wo no ma me; gye me firi nnaadaafoɔ ne amumuyɛfoɔ nsam.
2 For thou [art] the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
Woyɛ Onyankopɔn, mʼabandenden. Adɛn enti na woapo me? Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ menantenante twa adwo mʼatamfoɔ nhyɛsoɔ nti?
3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me to thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
Soma wo hann ne wo nokorɛ ma wɔn nkyerɛ me ɛkwan; ma wɔmmfa me mmra wo Bepɔ Kronkron no so, faako a woteɛ hɔ.
4 Then will I go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy: yes, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
Afei, mɛkɔ Onyankopɔn afɔrebukyia anim mʼanigyeɛ ne mʼahosɛpɛ Onyankopɔn nkyɛn. Mede sankuo bɛyi wo ayɛ, Ao Onyankopɔn, me Onyankopɔn.
5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, [who] is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Adɛn enti na woaboto, Ao me kra? Adɛn enti na woteetee wɔ me mu saa? Fa wo ho to Onyankopɔn so, na mɛkɔ so ayi no ayɛ, mʼAgyenkwa ne me Onyankopɔn.
