Psalms 138

1 By David. I confess Thee, with all my heart, Before the gods I do praise Thee.

Dawid de. Awurade, mede me koma nyinaa ayi wo ayɛ; mɛto wʼayeyi dwom wɔ “anyame” no anim.

2 I bow myself toward Thy holy temple, And I confess Thy name, For Thy kindness, and for Thy truth, For Thou hast made great Thy saying above all Thy name.

Mede mʼani bɛkyerɛ wʼasɔredan kronkron no, akotow wo na makamfo wo din wɔ wʼadɔe a enni huammɔ ne wo nokwaredi nti, efisɛ woama wʼahyɛde no so yiye; ama asen wo titiriwyɛ.

3 In the day I called, when Thou dost answer me, Thou dost strengthen me in my soul [with] strength.

Bere a misu frɛɛ wo no, wugyee me so; woma minyaa akokoduru ne nnamyɛ.

4 O Jehovah, all kings of earth confess Thee, When they have heard the sayings of Thy mouth.

Awurade, sɛ ahemfo a wɔwɔ wiase nyinaa te nea woahyɛ no a, ma wɔnkamfo wo.

5 And they sing in the ways of Jehovah, For great [is] the honour of Jehovah.

Ma wɔnto Awurade akwan ho nnwom, na Awurade anuonyam yɛ kɛse.

6 For high [is] Jehovah, and the lowly He seeth, And the haughty from afar He knoweth.

Ɛwɔ mu sɛ Awurade wɔ ɔsorosoro de, nanso ɔhwɛ mmɔborɔfo, na ahantanfo de, ohu wɔn wɔ akyirikyiri.

7 If I walk in the midst of distress Thou quickenest me, Against the anger of mine enemies Thou sendest forth Thy hand, And Thy right hand doth save me.

Ɛwɔ mu sɛ menam ɔhaw mu de, nanso wobɔ me nkwa ho ban; woteɛ wo nsa wɔ mʼatamfo abufuw so, na wode wo nsa nifa gye me nkwa.

8 Jehovah doth perfect for me, O Jehovah, Thy kindness [is] to the age, The works of Thy hands let not fall!

Awurade bɛma nea wahyehyɛ ama me no aba mu; Awurade, wʼadɔe wɔ hɔ daa, nnyaa wo nsa ano nnwuma akyidi. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo.
