Nnwom 128

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

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. O the blessedness of everyone fearing YHWH, Who is walking in His ways.

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

You surely eat the labor of your hands, You [are] blessed, and good [is] to 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 [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of your house, Your sons as olive plants around your table.

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

Behold, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing YHWH.

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

YHWH blesses you out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of your life,

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

And see the sons of your sons! Peace on Israel!
