Nnwom 54

1 Dawid “maskil” dwom. Ɔtoo no bere a Sififo kɔka kyerɛɛ Saulo se, “Dawid abehintaw wɔ yɛn mu.” Ao, Onyankopɔn, gye me wɔ wo din mu; fa wo tumi bu me bem.

Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he Nekina ko e Saame akonaki ʻa Tevita, ʻi he haʻu ʻae kakai Sifi, ʻonau pehē kia Saula, ʻIkai ʻoku fufū ʻa Tevita ʻiate kimautolu? Fakamoʻui au, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻi ho huafa, mo ke fakamaau au ʻi ho mālohi.

2 Ao, Onyankopɔn, tie me mpaebɔ; tie mʼanom nsɛm.

Fanongo mai ki heʻeku lotu, ʻE ʻOtua fakafanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻa hoku ngutu.

3 Ahɔho retow ahyɛ me so. Atirimɔdenfo rehwehwɛ me akum me; nnipa a wɔmmfa Onyankopɔn nyɛ hwee.

He kuo tuʻu hake kiate au ʻae kau muli, pea ʻoku kumi hoku laumālie ʻe he kau fakamālohi: ʻoku ʻikai te nau fokotuʻu ʻae ʻOtua ʻi honau ʻao. (Sila)

4 Ampa ara, Onyankopɔn ne me boafo; Awurade ne me hwɛfo.

Vakai, ko hoku tokoni ʻae ʻOtua: ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku poupou hoku laumālie ʻae ʻEiki.

5 Ma mmusu nkyim mmra wɔn a wodi me ho nseku no so; wo nokwaredi mu, sɛe wɔn.

‌ʻE totongi ʻe ia ʻaki ʻae kovi ki hoku ngaahi fili: ke ke motuhi ʻakinautolu ʻi ho moʻoni.

6 Mefi me pɛ mu abɔ afɔre ama wo; Awurade, meyi wo din ayɛ, efisɛ eye.

Te u ʻatu fiemālie pē ʻae feilaulau kiate koe: te u fakamālō ki ho huafa, ʻE Sihova he ʻoku lelei ia.

7 Woagye me afi me haw nyinaa mu, na mʼani ahu nkonimdi wɔ mʼatamfo so. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Wɔde sanku na ɛto.

He kuo ne fakamoʻui au mei he mamahi kotoa pē: pea kuo mamata ʻe hoku mata ki hoku ngaahi fili.
