Nnwom 128

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

Blessed are all they that fear the Lord: that walk in his ways.

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

For thou shalt eat the labours of thy hands: blessed art thou, and it shall be well with thee.

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.

Thy wife as a fruitful vine, on the sides of thy house.

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

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.

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

May the Lord bless thee out of Sion: and mayest thou see the good things of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

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

And mayest thou see thy children’s children, peace upon Israel.
