1 He himene na Ahapa. He pono, he pai te Atua ki a Iharaira; ki te hunga ngakau ma.
Asaf dwom. Ampa ara Onyankopɔn ye ma Israel, oye ma wɔn a wɔn koma mu tew.
2 Ko ahau ia, wahi iti kua tapepa oku waewae: me i kotahi kua paheke oku takahanga.
Nanso me de, anka me nan reyɛ awatiri; anka merehwere me nnyinaso,
3 I hae hoki ahau ki te hunga whakahi, i toku kitenga i te tangata hara e kake ana.
efisɛ mʼani beree ahantanfo bere a mihuu amumɔyɛfo yiyedi no.
4 Kahore hoki he whakawiringa a te mate i a ratou: he maro ano o ratou uaua.
Wonni aperepere; na wɔwɔ ahoɔden ne apɔwmuden.
5 Kahore nga mea whakapouri tangata e pa ki a ratou; kahore ano ratou e whiua tahitia me te mano tangata.
Dadwen a ɛtaa ba nnipa so biara nna wɔn so; ɔdesani haw biara nna wɔn so.
6 Na reira, ano he hei te whakakake e awhi nei i a ratou, ano he kakahu te tutu e hipokina nei ratou.
Enti ahantan yɛ wɔn kɔnmuade, na wofura akakabensɛm.
7 Pupuhi ana o ratou kanohi i te ngako: nui ake nga mea i a ratou i a o ratou ngakau i hiahia ai.
Wɔn koma a apirim no mu na nnebɔne fi; na wɔn amumɔyɛ adwene nni awiei.
8 E whakahi ana ratou, e korero kino ana mo te whakatoi: kei runga noa ake a ratou korero.
Wɔserew afoforo na wɔka wɔn ho nsɛm a enye; wɔde nhyɛso hunahuna afoforo wɔ ahomaso mu.
9 Tutuki tonu to ratou mangai ki nga rangi: e kopikopiko ana hoki to ratou arero i runga i te whenua.
Wɔn ano ka ɔsoro nsɛm, na wɔn tɛkrɛma agye asase afa.
10 Koia tona iwi i hoki mai ai ki konei: a e whakawiria ana he wai mo ratou, ki tonu te kapu.
Ɛno nti wɔn nkurɔfo kɔ wɔn nkyɛn na wonya nsu nom ma ebu so.
11 E mea ana ratou, Ma te aha e matau ai te Atua? He matauranga koia to te Runga Rawa?
Wobisa se, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na Onyankopɔn ahu? Na Ɔsorosoroni no wɔ nhumu ana?”
12 Nana, ko te hunga kino tenei, kei runga tonu i te whenua rangatira, e hua ana o ratou taonga.
Sɛɛ na amumɔyɛfo no te, hwee mfa wɔn ho, na wɔkɔ so pɛ ahonyade.
13 He pono he maumau taku mea i toku ngakau kia ma, taku horoi hoki i oku ringa ki te harakore.
Ampa ara, mannya hwee amfi me komamtew mu; me nsa a enni fɔ no ayɛ ɔkwa.
14 E whiua ana hoki ahau i te roa o te ra, e pakia ana i nga ata katoa.
Da mu nyinaa mihu amane; anɔpa biara wɔtwe mʼaso.
15 Me i ki ahau, Ka penei taku korero; na e tinihanga ana ahau ki te whakatupuranga o au tamariki.
Sɛ mekae se, “Mɛkasa saa” a, anka midii wo mma no huammɔ.
16 I taku meatanga kia matauria tenei, ka kite ahau he mahi whakauaua rawa;
Mebɔɔ mmɔden sɛ mɛte eyinom nyinaa ase, nanso na ɛhyɛ me so
17 Tae noa ahau ki te wahi tapu o te Atua, katahi ahau ka mohio ki to ratou mutunga.
kosii sɛ mekɔɔ Onyankopɔn kronkronbea hɔ; ɛhɔ na metee nea awiei no ɛbɛba wɔn so no ase.
18 He pono i whakaturia ratou e koe ki nga wahi pahekeheke; a whakataka ana e koe ki te ngaromanga.
Ampa ara wode wɔn gu faako a hɔ yɛ toro wode wɔn hwe fam sɛe wɔn pasaa.
19 Ano te panga whakareretanga o to ratou hunanga! kua pau rawa i nga wehi.
Sɛnea wɔsɛe prɛko pɛ, na ehu hwim wɔn kɔ no.
20 Ka rite ki te rekanga kanohi, ina ara ake te tangata, tau whakahawea ki to ratou ahua, e te Ariki, ina ara ake koe.
Ɛte sɛ adaeso, bere a onipa anyan, Awurade, sɛ wokanyan wo ho a, wubebu wʼani agu wɔn so sɛ biribi a enni hɔ.
21 Na mamae noa iho toku ngakau, a hukihuki ana oku whatumanawa.
Bere a awerɛhow hyɛɛ me koma mu na me honhom dii yaw no,
22 He whakaarokore hoki ahau, he kuware: me te mea he kirehe ahau i tou aroaro.
meyɛɛ sɛ obi a onnim hwee na onni adwene; meyɛɛ sɛ aboa gyimfo wɔ wʼanim.
23 Ahakoa ra kei a koe tonu ahau; e puritia ana e koe toku ringa matau.
Nanso na me ne wo wɔ hɔ bere biara; na wode wo nsa nifa aso me mu.
24 Ma tou whakaaro ahau e arahi; muri iho ka riro ahau i a koe ki te kororia.
Wode wʼafotu kyerɛ me kwan; na akyiri no, wode me bɛkɔ anuonyam mu.
25 Ko wai hoki toku i te rangi ko koe anake? Kahore atu hoki oku i te whenua e hiahia ai, ko koe anake.
Hena na mewɔ wɔ ɔsoro ka wo ho? Na biribiara nni asase so a mepɛ ka wo ho.
26 Hemo iho oku kikokiko me toku ngakau: ko te Atua ia te kaha o toku ngakau, toku wahi ake ake.
Me honam, ne me koma bedi me huammɔ, nanso Onyankopɔn ne me koma ahoɔden ne me kyɛfa daa nyinaa.
27 Na, ko te hunga e mamao atu ana i a koe ka mate: ka ngaro i a koe te hunga puremu katoa e whakarere nei i a koe.
Wɔn a wɔmmɛn wo no bɛyera. Wosɛe wɔn a wonni wo nokware nyinaa.
28 Ko ahau ia, he pai ki ahau te whakatata ki te Atua: kua waiho e ahau te Ariki, a Ihowa, hei whakawhirinakitanga moku, kia whakapuakina ai e ahau au mahi katoa.
Nanso me de, minim sɛ eye sɛ wobɛbɛn Onyankopɔn. Mede Otumfo Awurade ayɛ me guankɔbea; mɛka wo nneyɛe nyinaa akyerɛ.
