1 Dawid dwom. Awurade, gye me fi nnebɔneyɛfo nsam; bɔ me ho ban fi basabasayɛfo nsam,
Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ‌ʻE Sihova, fakamoʻui au mei he tangata angakovi: fakamoʻui au mei he tangata fakamālohi;
2 wɔn a wodwen bɔne wɔ wɔn koma mu na wɔhwanyan ɔko mu da biara.
‌ʻAia ʻoku mahalo kovi ʻi honau loto; ʻoku nau fakataha maʻuaipē ke tau.
3 Wɔsew wɔn tɛkrɛma ano te sɛ ɔwɔ de; nhurutoa bɔre wɔ wɔn ano.
Kuo nau fakamāsila honau ʻelelo ʻo hangē ko e ngata; ʻoku ʻai ʻae kona ʻoe ngata ʻi honau lalo loungutu. (Sila)
4 Awurade, yi me fi amumɔyɛfo nsam; bɔ me ho ban fi basabasayɛfo a wodwen sɛ wobetwintwan mʼanan mu no ho.
Fakahaofi au, ʻE Sihova, mei he nima ʻoe angahala; fakamoʻui au mei he tangata fakamālohi, ʻaia kuo ne fakakaukau ke tulaki hifo hoku vaʻe.
5 Ahantanfo asum me afiri; wɔatrɛtrɛw wɔn asau ahama mu wɔasunsum me mfiri wɔ me kwan so.
Kuo tau fufū ʻe he laukau ʻae tauhele kiate au, mo e ngaahi afo; kuo nau ʻaʻau ʻae kupenga ʻi he veʻe hala; kuo nau teuteu ʻae ngaahi hele kiate au. (Sila)
6 Awurade, meka kyerɛ wo se, “Wone me Nyankopɔn.” Awurade, tie me mmɔborɔsu.
Naʻaku pehē kia Sihova, “Ko koe ko hoku ʻOtua:” ʻE Sihova, ke ke ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻo ʻeku ngaahi lotu tāumaʻu.
7 Otumfo Awurade, me gyefo hoɔdenfo, wokata me ti so wɔ ɔko da,
‌ʻE Sihova ko e ʻEiki, ko e mālohi ʻo ʻeku fakamoʻui, kuo ke maluʻi hoku ʻulu ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe tau.
8 nyɛ amumɔyɛfo abisade mma wɔn, Awurade; mma wɔn nhyehyɛe nnyɛ yiye.
‌ʻE Sihova, ʻoua naʻa ke fai ki he ngaahi holi ʻae angahala: ʻoua naʻa ke tokoni ʻene fakakaukau kovi, telia naʻa nau hiki hake ʻakinautolu. (Sila)
9 Wɔatwa me ho ahyia, nanso, ma amumɔyɛsɛm a efi wɔn anom no nsɛe wɔn.
Ka ko e ʻulu ʻokinautolu ʻoku nau kāpui au, tuku ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae kovi ʻo honau loungutu.
10 Ma nnyansramma ngu wɔn so; ma wɔntow wɔn ngu ogya mu, ngu dontori amoa mu a wɔrensɔre bio.
Ke tō kiate kinautolu ʻae malalaʻi afi ʻoku vela: tuku ke lī ʻakinautolu ki he afi; ki he ngaahi luo tau mamaʻo, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau toetuʻu hake.
11 Mma dinsɛefo ase ntim asase no so; ma amanehunu ntaataa kitikitiyɛfo.
‌ʻOua naʻa tuku ha tangata lea kovi ke tuʻumaʻu ʻi māmani: ʻe tuli ʻe he kovi ʻae tangata fakamālohi ke tulaki ia.
12 Minim sɛ Awurade bu ahiafo atɛntrenee na odi onnibi asɛm ma no.
‌ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻe fakamaau ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ʻae mamahi, mo e ʻinasi totonu ʻoe masiva.
13 Ampa ara, atreneefo bɛkamfo wo din na wɔn a wɔnam tee no bɛtena nkwa mu wɔ wʼanim.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ʻe he māʻoniʻoni ki ho huafa: ʻe nofo ʻae angatonu ʻi ho ʻao.
