Nnwom 87

1 Koramma dwom. Wato ne fapem wɔ bepɔw kronkron no so;

`The salm of the song of the sones of Chore. The foundementis therof ben in hooli hillis;

2 Awurade dɔ Sion apon no sen Yakob atenae nyinaa.

the Lord loueth the yatis of Sion, more than alle the tabernaclis of Jacob.

3 Wɔka wo ho anuonyamsɛm Onyankopɔn kuropɔn:

Thou citee of God, with outen ende; gloriouse thingis ben seide of thee.

4 “Mede Rahab ne Babilonia bɛka wɔn a wɔyɛ osetie ma me no ho, Filistia, Tiro ne Kus nso na maka se, ‘Wɔwoo eyinom wɔ Sion.’”

I schal be myndeful of Raab, and Babiloyne; knowynge me. Lo! aliens, and Tyre, and the puple of Ethiopiens; thei weren there.

5 Ampa ara wɔbɛka afa Sion ho se, “Wɔwoo oyi ne ɔno wɔ no mu, na Ɔsorosoroni no ankasa de no betim hɔ.”

Whether a man schal seie to Sion, And a man is born ther ynne; and that man altherhiyeste foundide it?

6 Awurade bɛkyerɛw wɔ nnipa dinkyerɛw nhoma no mu se, “Wɔwoo oyi wɔ Sion.”

The Lord schal telle in the scripturis of puplis; and of these princis, that weren ther ynne.

7 Na wɔbɛto dwom se, “Me ntin nyinaa wɔ wo mu.”

As the dwellyng `of alle that ben glad; is in thee.
