Psalms 85
1 To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast accepted, O Jehovah, Thy land, Thou hast turned [to] the captivity of Jacob.
Kora mma dwom. Ao Awurade wohunuu wʼasase mmɔbɔ; wode Yakob ahonyadeɛ sane maa no.
2 Thou hast borne away the iniquity of Thy people, Thou hast covered all their sin. (Selah)
Wode wo nkurɔfoɔ bɔne kyɛɛ wɔn na wokataa wɔn nnebɔne nyinaa so.
3 Thou hast gathered up all Thy wrath, Thou hast turned back from the fierceness of Thine anger.
Wode wʼabofuo too nkyɛn na wodane firii wʼabufuhyeɛ ho.
4 Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, And make void Thine anger with us.
Sane gye yɛn bio, Ao Onyankopɔn, yɛn Gyefoɔ, na ma wʼani nnye yɛn ho.
5 To the age art Thou angry against us? Dost Thou draw out Thine anger To generation and generation?
Wo bo bɛfu yɛn akɔsi daa anaa? Wʼabofuo bɛtoa so akɔ awoɔ ntoantoasoɔ nyinaa so anaa?
6 Dost Thou not turn back? Thou revivest us, And Thy people do rejoice in Thee.
Worenhyɛ yɛn den bio, na ama wo nkurɔfoɔ asɛpɛ wɔn ho wɔ wo mu anaa?
7 Show us, O Jehovah, thy kindness, And Thy salvation Thou dost give to us.
Ao Awurade, kyerɛ yɛn wo dɔ a ɛnsa da no, na ma yɛn wo nkwagyeɛ no.
8 I hear what God Jehovah speaketh, For He speaketh peace unto His people, And unto His saints, and they turn not back to folly.
Mɛtie deɛ Awurade Onyankopɔn bɛka. Ɔde asomdwoeɛ hyɛ ne nkurɔfoɔ, ahotefoɔ no bɔ, enti ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔsane kɔ agyimisɛm ho.
9 Only, near to those fearing Him [is] His salvation, That honour may dwell in our land.
Ampa ara, ne nkwagyeɛ bɛne wɔn a wɔsuro no, na nʼanimuonyam bɛtena yɛn asase so.
10 Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,
Ɔdɔ ne nokorɛdie bɛhyia, na tenenee ne asomdwoeɛ bɛfe wɔn ho wɔn ho ano.
11 Truth from the earth springeth up, And righteousness from heaven looketh out,
Nokorɛdie bɛpue afiri asase no so, na tenenee ahwɛ afiri soro.
12 Jehovah also giveth that which is good, And our land doth give its increase.
Awurade bɛma yɛn deɛ ɛyɛ ampa ara na yɛn asase bɛma ne nnɔbaeɛ.
13 Righteousness before Him goeth, And maketh His footsteps for a way!
Tenenee di nʼanim siesie ɛkwan ma nʼanammɔntuo.
