Nnwom 125

1 Ɔsoroforo dwom. Wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho to Awurade so no te sɛ Bepɔw Sion, a ɛnwosow na etim hɔ daa no.

A Song of degrees. They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.

2 Sɛnea mmepɔw atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia no, saa ara na Awurade atwa ne nkurɔfo ho ahyia mprempren ne daa.

Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.

3 Amumɔyɛfo ahempema renka asase a wɔde ama atreneefo no so, sɛ ɛba saa a, atreneefo nam wɔn so bɛyɛ bɔne.

For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 Awurade wɔn a wɔyɛ papa no, yɛ wɔn papa, wɔn a wɔteɛ wɔ koma mu no, yɛ wɔn papa.

Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

5 Na wɔn a wɔman fa akwan kɔntɔnkye so no de, Awurade betwa wɔn ne nnebɔneyɛfo asu. Asomdwoe nka Israel.

But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
