Nnwom 61

1 Dawid dwom. Ao, Onyankopɔn, tie me sufrɛ; tie me mpaebɔ.

To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of David. Heare my cry, O God: giue eare vnto my prayer.

2 Mifi asase ano frɛ wo, mefrɛ wo, efisɛ me koma atɔ beraw; fa me kɔ ɔbotan a ɛware sen me no so.

From the endes of the earth will I crye vnto thee: when mine heart is opprest, bring me vpon the rocke that is higher then I.

3 Woayɛ me guankɔbea, aban a ɛyɛ den ma ɔtamfo no.

For thou hast bene mine hope, and a strong tower against the enemie.

4 Me kɔn dɔ sɛ metena wo ntamadan no mu afebɔɔ na manya guankɔbea wɔ wo ntaban nwini ase.

I will dwell in thy Tabernacle for euer, and my trust shall be vnder the couering of thy wings. (Selah)

5 Woate me bɔ a mehyɛe no, Onyankopɔn; na wode wɔn a wosuro wo din no agyapade ama me.

For thou, O God, hast heard my desires: thou hast giuen an heritage vnto those that feare thy Name.

6 To ɔhene nkwanna mu bebree; na ne mfe mfi awo ntoatoaso nkodu awo ntoatoaso.

Thou shalt giue the King a long life: his yeeres shalbe as many ages.

7 Ma onni hene wɔ Onyankopɔn anim daa fa wʼadɔe ne wo nokware bɔ ne ho ban.

Hee shall dwell before God for euer: prepare mercie and faithfulnes that they may preserue him.

8 Afei mɛto ayeyi dwom ama wo din daa na madi me bɔhyɛ so daa nyinaa. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. De ma Yedutun.

So will I alway sing prayse vnto thy Name in performing dayly my vowes.
