< Nnwom 128 >
1 Ɔsorokorɔ dwom. Nhyira ne wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, na wɔnante nʼakwan so.
The song of greces. Blessid ben alle men, that dreden the Lord; that gon in hise weies.
2 Wobɛdi wʼadwuma so aba; nhyira ne yiedie bɛyɛ wo dea.
For thou schalt ete the trauels of thin hondis; thou art blessid, and it schal be wel to 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.
Thi wijf as a plenteous vyne; in the sidis of thin hous. Thi sones as the newe sprenges of olyue trees; in the cumpas of thi bord.
4 Yei ne onipa a wɔahyira noɔ, deɛ ɔsuro Awurade no.
Lo! so a man schal be blessid; that dredith the Lord.
5 Awurade nhyira wo mfiri Sion wo nkwa nna nyinaa; na ɔmma wo nhunu Yerusalem nkɔsoɔ,
The Lord blesse thee fro Syon; and se thou the goodis of Jerusalem in alle the daies of thi lijf.
6 na ɔmma wo ntena ase nhunu wo mma mma. Asomdwoeɛ nka Israel.
And se thou the sones of thi sones; se thou pees on Israel.
