Nnwom 108
1 Dawid dwom. Ao Onyankopɔn, mʼakoma atɔ me yam; mede me kra nyinaa bɛto wʼayɛyie dwom.
A Song [or] Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2 Monyane, sankuo ne bɛnta! Mɛnyane anɔpahema.
Awake, psaltery and harp: I [myself] will awake early.
3 Ao Awurade, mɛkamfo wo wɔ aman no mu; mɛto wo ho dwom wɔ nnipa no mu.
I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises to thee among the nations.
4 Wʼadɔeɛ so, ɛkorɔn sene ɔsoro; wo nokorɛdie duru ewiem.
For thy mercy [is] great above the heavens: and thy truth [reacheth] to the clouds.
5 Ao Onyankopɔn, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔma wo so tra ɔsoro, na ama wʼanimuonyam aba asase nyinaa so.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
6 Fa wo nsa nifa gye yɛn na boa yɛn, na ama wɔn a wodɔ wɔn no anya nkwa.
That thy beloved may be delivered: save [with] thy right hand, and answer me.
7 Onyankopɔn akasa afiri ne kronkronbea sɛ, “Nkonim mu na mɛkyɛ Sekem mu na masusu Sukot Bɔnhwa.
God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead yɛ me dea; Manase nso saa ara; Efraim yɛ me dadeɛ kyɛ, Yuda yɛ mʼahempoma.
Gilead [is] mine; Manasseh [is] mine; Ephraim also [is] the strength of my head; Judah [is] my lawgiver;
9 Moab yɛ me dwaresɛn, Edom so na meto me mpaboa guo; Filistia so na mebɔ ose.”
Moab [is] my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
10 Hwan na ɔde me bɛkɔ kuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no mu? Hwan na ɔbɛdi mʼanim akɔ Edom?
Who will bring me into the strong city: who will lead me into Edom?
11 Ao Onyankopɔn, ɛnyɛ wo na woapo yɛn? Wo ne yɛn nsraadɔm renkɔ ɔsa bio anaa?
[Wilt] not [thou], O God, [who] hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?
12 Boa yɛn tia ɔtamfoɔ no, na ɔdasani mmoa nka hwee.
Give us help from trouble: for vain [is] the help of man.
13 Onyankopɔn wɔ yɛn afa yi, yɛbɛdi nkonim, na ɔbɛtiatia yɛn atamfoɔ so. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ no.
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he will tread down our enemies.
