Psalms 124

1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),

Ɔsoroforo dwom. Dawid de. Sɛ anka Awurade nni yɛn afa a, ma Israel nka,

2 Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

Sɛ anka Awurade nni yɛn afa bere a nnipa tow hyɛɛ yɛn so,

3 Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us,

bere a wɔn abufuw sɔre tiaa yɛn a anka wɔmemenee yɛn anikann;

4 Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

anka nsuyiri no bebu afa yɛn so, anka ɔhweam no bɛtwe yɛn akɔ,

5 Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

anka nsu a ano yɛ den no bɛpra yɛn kɔ.

6 Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth.

Ayeyi nka Awurade a wamma ho kwan amma wɔamfa wɔn se antetew yɛn mu.

7 Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

Yɛaguan sɛ anomaa afi ofirisumfo afiri mu; wɔabubu afiri no, ama yɛaguan.

8 Our help [is] in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth!

Yɛn mmoa wɔ Awurade din mu, ɔsoro ne asase Yɛfo no.
