Nnwom 23

1 Dawid dwom. Awurade ne me hwɛfo, hwee renhia me.

`The salm, ether the song of Dauid. The Lord gouerneth me, and no thing schal faile to me;

2 Ɔma meda wura frɔmfrɔm adidibea; ogya me kɔ nsu a ɛho dwo ho,

in the place of pasture there he hath set me. He nurschide me on the watir of refreischyng;

3 odwudwo me kra. Ɔde me fa akwantrenee so, ne din nti.

he conuertide my soule. He ledde me forth on the pathis of riytfulnesse; for his name.

4 Sɛ menam owu sum kabii mu mpo a, minsuro bɔne bi, efisɛ wo ne me na ɛwɔ hɔ; wʼabaa ne wo pema na ɛkyekye me werɛ.

For whi thouy Y schal go in the myddis of schadewe of deeth; Y schal not drede yuels, for thou art with me. Thi yerde and thi staf; tho han coumfortid me.

5 Woto me pon wɔ mʼatamfo anim. Wode ngo fɔw me tirim; me kuruwa yɛ ma bu so.

Thou hast maad redi a boord in my siyt; ayens hem that troblen me. Thou hast maad fat myn heed with oyle; and my cuppe, `fillinge greetli, is ful cleer.

6 Yiye ne adɔe nko na ebedi mʼakyi me nkwanna nyinaa; na mɛtena Awurade fi daa.

And thi merci schal sue me; in alle the daies of my lijf. And that Y dwelle in the hows of the Lord; in to the lengthe of daies.
