6 Ngoba uThixo uyapha ukuhlakanipha, emlonyeni wakhe kuphuma ulwazi lokuqedisisa.
Awurade ma nimdeɛ, na nʼanom na nyansa ne ntease fi ba.
7 Abaqotho ubapha ukunqoba, ulihawu lalabo abahamba bengasoleki,
Ɔkora nkonimdi ma wɔn a wɔteɛ, ɔyɛ kyɛm ma wɔn a wɔn akwan yɛ pɛ,

Afei nyansa bewura wo koma mu, na nimdeɛ ayɛ ahomeka ama wo kra.
11 Ukwazi ukukhetha kuzakuvikela, lokuzwisisa kuzakulinda.
Adwene bɛbɔ wo ho ban na ntease ahwɛ wo so.
12 Ukuhlakanipha kuzakusindisa ezindleleni zabantu ababi, abantu abamazwi abolileyo,
Nyansa beyi wo afi amumɔyɛfo akwan mu, ebeyi wo afi nnipa a wɔn nsɛm yɛ basabasa nsam,
13 abatshiya izindlela eziqondileyo, bahambe ngezindlela ezilamathunzi,
wɔn a wɔaman afi akwan pa so akɔnantew sum akwan so no,
14 abathokoza ngokwenza okubi bajabule ngokungcola kokubi,

15 abandlela zabo zitshekile lokuhamba kwabo kakuqondakali.

16 Kuzakukhulula njalo koyisiphingikazi, lasemfazini olamazwi akhohlisayo,
Nimdeɛ begye wo afi ɔbea waresɛefo no nsam, afi ɔbea warefo huhuni a ɔka nnaadaasɛm ho,

18 Ngoba indlu yakhe iholela ekufeni lezindlela zakhe zidonsela kwabafileyo.
Ne fi yɛ ɔkwan a ɛkɔ owu mu na nʼakwan kɔ awufo honhom nkyɛn.
19 Kakho ongena kuye obuyayo kumbe aphinde azuze izindlela zokuphila.
Obiara a ɔkɔ ne nkyɛn no nsan mma anaasɛ ɔrensi nkwa akwan so.
20 Ngakho uzahamba ezindleleni zabantu abalungileyo walele emikhondweni yabaqondileyo.
Enti wubedi nnipa pa anammɔn akyi na woanantew atreneefo akwan so.
21 Ngoba abaqotho bazahlala elizweni, labangasolekiyo bazasala kulo;
Efisɛ wɔn a wɔteɛ bɛtena asase no so, na wɔn a asɛm nni wɔn ho no na wɔbɛka hɔ;
22 kodwa izigangi zizasuswa elizweni, labangathembekanga bazakhutshwa kulo.
na wobetwa amumɔyɛfo afi asase no so, na wɔatɔre atorofo ase.
