1 Ɔsoroforo dwom. Nhyira ne wɔn a wosuro Awurade, na wɔnantew nʼakwan so.

A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in His ways!

For when you eat the fruit of your labor, blessings and prosperity will be yours.

3 Wo yere bɛyɛ sɛ bobe a ɛsow aba wɔ wo fi; na wo mmabarima ayɛ sɛ ngodua a afifi atwa wo pon ho ahyia.

Your wife will be like a fruitful vine flourishing within your house, your sons like olive shoots sitting around your table.

In this way indeed shall blessing come to the man who fears the LORD.

5 Awurade nhyira wo mfi Sion na ɔmma wunhu Yerusalem yiyeyɛ; wo nkwanna nyinaa.

May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life,

6 Ɔmma wo ntena ase nhu wo mma mma. Asomdwoe nka Israel.

that you may see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel!
