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

A song of ascents. Happy all who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.

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

You will eat what your hands have toiled for, and be happy and prosperous!

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.

Like a fruitful vine shall your wife be in the innermost room of your house: your children, like olive shoots, round about your table.

See! This is the blessing of the man who fears the Lord.

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

The Lord shall bless you from Zion. You will see Jerusalem nourish all the days of your life.

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

You will see your children’s children. Peace upon Israel.
