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

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. O the blessedness of everyone fearing YHWH, Who is walking in His ways.

2 Wubedi wʼadwuma so aba; nhyira ne yiyedi bɛyɛ wo de.

You surely eat the labor of your hands, You [are] blessed, and good [is] to you.

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 [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of your house, Your sons as olive plants around your table.

4 Yiw, sɛɛ ne nea wobehyira onipa a osuro Awurade no.

Behold, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing YHWH.

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

YHWH blesses you out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of your life,

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

And see the sons of your sons! Peace on Israel!
