2 Samuel 22
1 Forsothe Dauid spak to the Lord the wordis of this song, in the dai in which the Lord delyuerede hym fro the hond of alle hise enemyes, and fro the hond of Saul.
Ɛberɛ a Awurade gyee Dawid firii nʼatamfoɔ nyinaa ne Saulo nsam akyi no, ɔtoo saa dwom yi de yii Awurade ayɛ.
2 And Dauid seide, The Lord is my stoon, and my strengthe, and my sauyour;
Nsɛm a ɛwɔ dwom no mu nie: “Awurade yɛ me botan, mʼaban ne mʼagyenkwa;
3 my God, my stronge, I schal hope in to hym; my scheeld, and the horn of myn helthe, `my reisere, and my refuyt; my sauyour, thou schalt delyuere me fro wickidnesse.
me Onyankopɔn yɛ me botan; ne mu na menya banbɔ. Ɔyɛ me kyɛm, me nkwagyeɛ mu ahoɔden ne me banbɔeɛ, mʼabantenten, mʼagyenkwa, deɛ ɔgye me firi basabasayɛ mu.
4 Y schal inwardly clepe the Lord worthi to be preisid; and Y schal be saaf fro myn enemyes.
“Mesu frɛ Awurade; ɔno na ayɛyie sɛ no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔgye me firi mʼatamfoɔ nsam.
5 For the sorewis of deeth cumpasside me; the strondis of Belial maden me aferd.
Owuo asorɔkye twaa me ho hyiaeɛ; ɔsɛeɛ yiri faa me so.
Damena nhoma kyekyeree me; owuo ankasa too me anihaa. (Sheol h7585)
7 In tribulacioun Y schal clepe, `that is, Y clepide thee, Lord, and Y schal crie to my God; and he herd fro his holi temple my vois, and my crye schal come to hise eeris.
“Na mʼamanehunu mu no, mesu mefrɛɛ Awurade. Aane, mefrɛɛ me Onyankopɔn pɛɛ mmoa. Ɔtee me nne firii ne kronkronbea. Me sufrɛ duruu nʼasom.
8 The erthe was mouyd, and tremblide; the foundementis of hillis weren smytun and schakun togidere, for the Lord was wrooth to hem.
Na asase wosoeɛ na ɛhinhimeɛ; ɔsoro fapem wosoeɛ; wɔwosoeɛ, nʼabufuo enti.
9 Smoke stiede fro hise nosethirlis, and fier of his mouth schal deuoure; colis weren kyndlid of it.
Wisie firii ne hwene mu; ogyaframa firii nʼanom; na egyasramma dɛre firii mu.
10 And he bowide heuenes, and cam doun; and myist vndur hise feet.
Ɔfirii ɔsoro baa fam; na omununkum kabii duruu ne nan ase.
11 And he stiede on cherubyn, and fliy; and he slood on the pennys of wynd.
Ɔte Kerubim so tuiɛ; gyaagyaa ne ho wɔ mframa ntaban so.
12 He puttide derknessis hidyng place in his cumpas, and riddlide watris fro the cloudis of heuenes;
Ɔde sum kataa ne ho hyiaeɛ, ɔde osuo omununkum dii nʼanim ɛkan.
13 for briytnesse in his siyt colis of fier weren kyndelid.
Hann kɛseɛ hyerɛn wɔ nʼanim, na anyinam pa firi mu.
14 The Lord schal thundur fro heuene; and hiy God schal yyue his vois.
Awurade bobɔɔ mu firi soro; Ɔsorosoroni no teaam denden.
15 He sente hise arowis, and scateride hem; he sente leitis, and wastide hem.
Ɔtoo nʼagyan maa nʼatamfoɔ hweteeɛ; anyinam dwaeɛ ma wɔyɛɛ basaa.
16 And the schedyngis out of the see apperiden, and the foundementis of the world weren schewid; fro the blamyng of the Lord, fro the brething of the spirit of his strong veniaunce.
Awurade kasaeɛ, na ewiase nnyinasoɔ no nyinaa daa hɔ. Wɔtumi hunuu ɛpo ase, na asase fapem ho daa hɔ.
17 He sente fro heuene, and took me; and drow me out of manye watris.
“Ɔfiri ɔsoro baa ɛfam bɛsɔɔ me mu; ɔtwee me firii nsuo a emu dɔ mu.
18 He delyuerede me fro my myytiest enemy, and fro hem that hatiden me; for thei weren strongere than Y.
Ɔgyee me firii mʼatamfoɔ a wɔyɛ den nsam, atamfoɔ a wɔkyiri me na wɔn ho yɛ den pa ara ma me.
19 Thei camen bifore me in the dai of my turmentyng; and the Lord was maad my stidfastnesse.
Wɔbaa me so wɔ mʼamanehunu da mu, nanso Awurade pagyaa me.
20 And he ledde me out in to largenesse, and he delyuerede me; for Y pleside hym.
Ɔde me baa baabi a banbɔ wɔ; ɔgyee me, ɛfiri sɛ, nʼani ku me ho.
21 The Lord schal yelde to me vp my riytfulnesse; and he schal yelde to me vp, `ethir aftir, the clennesse of myn hondis.
“Awurade ne me adi no sɛdeɛ me tenenee teɛ; wahwɛ me nsa a ɛho teɛ so atua me ka.
22 For Y kepte the weies of the Lord; and Y dide not wickidli fro my God.
Ɛfiri sɛ, manante Awurade akwan so; Mentwee me ho mfirii me Onyankopɔn ho nkɔyɛɛ bɔne.
23 For alle hise domes weren in my siyt; and Y dide not awei fro me hise heestis.
Ne mmara nyinaa gu mʼanim; mentwee me ho mfirii ne nhyehyɛeɛ ho.
24 And Y schal be perfit with hym; and Y schal kepe me fro my wickidnesse.
Me ho nni asɛm wɔ Onyankopɔn anim; matwe me ho afiri bɔne ho.
25 And the Lord schal restore to me vpe my riytfulnesse; and vp the clennesse of myn hondis in the siyt of hise iyen.
Awurade tuaa me papayɛ so ka, ɛfiri sɛ menni fɔ wɔ nʼanim.
26 With the hooli thou schalt be hooli, and with the stronge, `that is, to suffre aduersitees pacientli, thou schalt be perfit;
“Woda wo ho adi sɛ ɔnokwafoɔ kyerɛ wɔn a wɔdi nokorɛ, wɔn a wɔdi mu nso wo kyerɛ wɔn sɛ wodi mu.
27 and with a chosun man `to blis thou schalt be chosun, and with a weiward man thou schalt be maad weiward, `that is, in yeldynge iustli peyne to hym vpe his weiwardnesse.
Woyi wo kronkronyɛ kyerɛ ɔkronkronni, nanso amumuyɛfoɔ deɛ wokyiri wɔn.
28 And thou schalt make saaf a pore puple; and with thin iyen thou schalt make lowe hem that ben hiye.
Wogye ahobrɛasefoɔ, nanso wʼani kɔ ahantanfoɔ so sɛ wobɛbrɛ wɔn ase.
29 For thou, Lord, art my lanterne, and thou, Lord, schalt liytne my derknessis.
Ao Awurade, woyɛ me kanea. Aane, Awurade woma me sum dane hann.
30 For Y gird, `that is, maad redi to batel, schal renne in thee, `that is, in thi vertu; and in my God Y schal `scippe ouer the wal.
Wʼahoɔden a wode ma me enti, metumi ka akodɔm gu; me Onyankopɔn enti, metumi foro ɔfasuo.
31 `God his weie is `with out wem; the speche of the Lord is examynyd bi fier, `that is, is pure and clene as metal preuyd in the furneys; he is a scheeld of alle men hopynge in hym.
“Onyankopɔn deɛ, nʼakwan yɛ pɛ; Awurade bɔhyɛ nyinaa ba mu. Ɔyɛ akokyɛm ma wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ banbɔ wɔ ne mu.
32 For who is God, outakun the Lord; and who is strong, outakun oure God?
Hwan ne Onyankopɔn, gye sɛ Awurade? Hwan ne ɔbotantim no, gye sɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn?
33 God, that hath gird me with strengthe, and hath maad pleyn my perfit weie;
Onyankopɔn ne mʼaban a ɛyɛ den; wagye me, na wama me kwan so ayɛ pɛ.
34 and he made euene my feet with hertis, and settide me on myn hiye thingis;
Ɔma mʼanammɔn ho yɛ hare sɛ ɔforoteɛ deɛ; Ɔma me gyina sorɔnsorɔmmea.
35 and he tauyte myn hondis to batel, and made myn armes as a brasun bouwe.
Ɔsiesie me ma ɔko; na mʼabasa tumi kuntunu kɔbere mfrafraeɛ tadua.
36 Thou hast youe to me the sheeld of thin heelthe; and my myldenesse multipliede me.
Woama me wo nkwagyeɛ kyɛm. Wo mmoa ama mayɛ ɔkɛseɛ.
37 Thou schalt alarge my steppis vndur me; and myn heelis schulen not faile.
Woabɔ ɛkwan tɛtrɛɛ ama me nan sɛdeɛ ɛrenwatiri.
38 Y schal pursue myn enemyes, and Y schal al to-breke hem; and Y schal not turne ayen, til Y waste hem.
“Metaa mʼatamfoɔ so sɛee wɔn; mannyina kɔsii sɛ wɔdii nkoguo.
39 Y schal waste hem, and Y schal breke, that thei rise not; thei schulen falle vndur my feet.
Meyamoo wɔn, mebɔɔ wɔn hwee fam, na wɔantumi ansɔre; wɔhwehwee ase wɔ me nan ase.
40 Thou hast gird me with strengthe to batel; thou hast bowid vnder me hem that ayenstoden me.
Wohyɛɛ me ahoɔden maa ɔko; woaka mʼatamfoɔ ahyɛ me nan ase.
41 Thou hast youe myn enemyes abac to me, men hatynge me; and Y schal distrie hem.
Womaa wɔdanee wɔn ani dwaneeɛ, na mesɛe wɔn a wɔtan me nyinaa.
42 Thei schulen crye, `that is, to ydols ether to mennus help, and noon schal be that schal saue; `thei schulen crie to the Lord, and he schal not here hem.
Wɔsu pɛɛ mmoa, nanso obiara ammɛgye wɔn. Wɔsu frɛɛ Awurade, nanso wannye wɔn so.
43 Y schal do awei hem as the dust of erthe; Y schal `powne hem, and Y schal do awei as the clei of stretis.
Meyamoo wɔn ma wɔyɛɛ sɛ asase so mfuturo; mepraa wɔn guu nsuka mu sɛ wira.
44 Thou schalt saue me fro ayenseiyngis of my puple; thou schalt kepe me in to the heed of folkis; the puple, whom Y knowe not, schal serue me.
“Womaa me nkonimdie wɔ wɔn a wɔbɔ me kwaadu so. Woahwɛ sɛ mɛyɛ amanaman sodifoɔ; na nnipa a mennim wɔn som me.
45 Alien sones schulen ayenstonde me; bi heryng of eere thei schulen obeie to me.
Ananafoɔ brɛ wɔn ho ase ma me; wɔte me nka pɛ ara a, wɔde wɔn ho ma me.
46 Alien sones fletiden awei; and thei schulen be drawun togidere in her angwischis.
Wɔn nyinaa bɔ huboa, na wɔde ahopopoɔ firi wɔn nsraban mu ba.
47 The Lord lyueth, and my God is blessid; and the stronge God of myn helthe schal be enhaunsid.
“Awurade te ase! Ayɛyi nka me botan, ma wɔmma Onyankopɔn, me nkwagyeɛ botan so.
48 God, that yyuest veniauncis to me; and hast cast doun puplis vndur me.
Ɔno ne Onyankopɔn a ɔtɔ wɔn a wɔha me so awere; ɔka amanaman no hyɛ mʼase
49 Which ledist me out fro myn enemyes, and reisist me fro men ayenstondinge me; thou schalt deliuere me fro the wickid man.
na ɔgye me firi mʼatamfoɔ nsam. Wode me si baabi a mʼatamfoɔ nnuru, wogye me firi atutupɛfoɔ a wɔtia me nsam.
50 Therfor, Lord, Y schal knowleche to thee in hethene men; and Y schal synge to thi name.
Ao Awurade yei enti, mɛkamfo wo wɔ amanaman mu nyinaa; na mɛto ayɛyie nnwom ama wo edin.
51 And he magnyfieth the helthis of his kyng; and doith mercyes to his crist Dauid, and to his seed til in to withouten ende.
“Wode nkonimdie akɛseɛ ama wo ɔhene; woda ɔdɔ a ɛnsa da adi kyerɛ deɛ woasra no ngo, wode kyerɛ Dawid, ne nʼasefoɔ afebɔɔ.”
