Nnwom 128

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

A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.

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

You shall eat the labors of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with 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 shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.

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

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

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

May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

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

And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
