Nnwom 128

1 Ɔsorokorɔ dwom. Nhyira ne wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, na wɔnante nʼakwan so.

A Song of the going up. Happy is the worshipper of the Lord, who is walking in his ways.

2 Wobɛdi wʼadwuma so aba; nhyira ne yiedie bɛyɛ wo dea.

You will have the fruit of the work of your hands: happy will you be, and all will be well for you.

3 Wo yere bɛyɛ sɛ bobe a ɛso aba wɔ wo fie; na wo mmammarima ayɛ sɛ ngo dua a afifiri atwa wo ɛpono ho ahyia.

Your wife will be like a fertile vine in the inmost parts of your house: your children will be like olive plants round your table.

4 Yei ne onipa a wɔahyira noɔ, deɛ ɔsuro Awurade no.

See! this is the blessing of the worshipper of the Lord.

5 Awurade nhyira wo mfiri Sion wo nkwa nna nyinaa; na ɔmma wo nhunu Yerusalem nkɔsoɔ,

May the Lord send you blessing out of Zion: may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6 na ɔmma wo ntena ase nhunu wo mma mma. Asomdwoeɛ nka Israel.

May you see your children's children. Peace be on Israel.
