Psalms 140

1 To victorie, the salm of Dauith. Lord, delyuere thou me fro an yuel man; delyuere thou me fro a wickid man.

Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Dawid dwom. Awurade, gye me fi nnebɔneyɛfo nsam; bɔ me ho ban fi basabasayɛfo nsam,

2 Whiche thouyten wickidnesses in the herte; al dai thei ordeyneden batels.

wɔn a wodwen bɔne wɔ wɔn koma mu na wɔhwanyan ɔko mu da biara.

3 Thei scharpiden her tungis as serpentis; the venym of snakis vndir the lippis of hem.

Wɔsew wɔn tɛkrɛma ano te sɛ ɔwɔ de; nhurutoa bɔre wɔ wɔn ano.

4 Lord, kepe thou me fro the hond of the synnere; and delyuere thou me fro wickid men. Which thouyten to disseyue my goyngis;

Awurade, yi me fi amumɔyɛfo nsam; bɔ me ho ban fi basabasayɛfo a wodwen sɛ wobetwintwan mʼanan mu no ho.

5 proude men hidden a snare to me. And thei leiden forth cordis in to a snare; thei settiden sclaundir to me bisidis the weie.

Ahantanfo asum me afiri; wɔatrɛtrɛw wɔn asau ahama mu wɔasunsum me mfiri wɔ me kwan so.

6 I seide to the Lord, Thou art mi God; Lord, here thou the vois of my biseching.

Awurade, meka kyerɛ wo se, “Wone me Nyankopɔn.” Awurade, tie me mmɔborɔsu.

7 Lord, Lord, the vertu of myn heelthe; thou madist schadowe on myn heed in the dai of batel.

Otumfo Awurade, me gyefo hoɔdenfo, wokata me ti so wɔ ɔko da,

8 Lord, bitake thou not me fro my desire to the synnere; thei thouyten ayens me, forsake thou not me, lest perauenture thei ben enhaunsid.

nyɛ amumɔyɛfo abisade mma wɔn, Awurade; mma wɔn nhyehyɛe nnyɛ yiye.

9 The heed of the cumpas of hem; the trauel of her lippis schal hile hem.

Wɔatwa me ho ahyia, nanso, ma amumɔyɛsɛm a efi wɔn anom no nsɛe wɔn.

10 Colis schulen falle on hem, thou schalt caste hem doun in to fier; in wretchidnessis thei schulen not stonde.

Ma nnyansramma ngu wɔn so; ma wɔntow wɔn ngu ogya mu, ngu dontori amoa mu a wɔrensɔre bio.

11 A man a greet ianglere schal not be dressid in erthe; yuels schulen take an vniust man in perisching.

Mma dinsɛefo ase ntim asase no so; ma amanehunu ntaataa kitikitiyɛfo.

12 I haue knowe, that the Lord schal make dom of a nedi man; and the veniaunce of pore men.

Minim sɛ Awurade bu ahiafo atɛntrenee na odi onnibi asɛm ma no.

13 Netheles iust men schulen knouleche to thi name; and riytful men schulen dwelle with thi cheer.

Ampa ara, atreneefo bɛkamfo wo din na wɔn a wɔnam tee no bɛtena nkwa mu wɔ wʼanim.
