Nnwom 108
1 Dawid dwom. Ao Onyankopɔn, mʼakoma atɔ me yam; mede me kra nyinaa bɛto wʼayɛyie dwom.
A song. A Psalm of David. My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and make music with all my being.
2 Monyane, sankuo ne bɛnta! Mɛnyane anɔpahema.
Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
3 Ao Awurade, mɛkamfo wo wɔ aman no mu; mɛto wo ho dwom wɔ nnipa no mu.
I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
4 Wʼadɔeɛ so, ɛkorɔn sene ɔsoro; wo nokorɛdie duru ewiem.
For Your loving devotion extends beyond the heavens, and Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
5 Ao Onyankopɔn, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔma wo so tra ɔsoro, na ama wʼanimuonyam aba asase nyinaa so.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
6 Fa wo nsa nifa gye yɛn na boa yɛn, na ama wɔn a wodɔ wɔn no anya nkwa.
Respond and save us with Your right hand, that Your beloved may be delivered.
7 Onyankopɔn akasa afiri ne kronkronbea sɛ, “Nkonim mu na mɛkyɛ Sekem mu na masusu Sukot Bɔnhwa.
God has spoken from His sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem and apportion the Valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead yɛ me dea; Manase nso saa ara; Efraim yɛ me dadeɛ kyɛ, Yuda yɛ mʼahempoma.
Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is My helmet, Judah is My scepter.
9 Moab yɛ me dwaresɛn, Edom so na meto me mpaboa guo; Filistia so na mebɔ ose.”
Moab is My washbasin; upon Edom I toss My sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
10 Hwan na ɔde me bɛkɔ kuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no mu? Hwan na ɔbɛdi mʼanim akɔ Edom?
Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
11 Ao Onyankopɔn, ɛnyɛ wo na woapo yɛn? Wo ne yɛn nsraadɔm renkɔ ɔsa bio anaa?
Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?
12 Boa yɛn tia ɔtamfoɔ no, na ɔdasani mmoa nka hwee.
Give us aid against the enemy, for the help of man is worthless.
13 Onyankopɔn wɔ yɛn afa yi, yɛbɛdi nkonim, na ɔbɛtiatia yɛn atamfoɔ so.
With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.
