1 Dawid dwom. Ao Awurade, tie me mpaeɛbɔ, tie me nkotosrɛ; wɔ wo nokorɛdie ne tenenee mu bra bɛboa me.
2 Mfa wʼakoa nkɔ atemmuo mu, na ɔteasefoɔ biara ntene wɔ wʼanim.
3 Ɔtamfoɔ no taa me, ɔbɔ me hwe fam; ɔma me tena esum mu te sɛ wɔn a wɔawuwu dadaada.
4 Ɛno enti me honhom atɔ piti wɔ me mu; na mʼakoma aba mu abu wɔ me mu.
5 Mekae tete nna no; medwendwene wo nnwuma ne deɛ wo nsa ayɛ nyinaa ho.
6 Mepagya me nsa kyerɛ wo; wo ho sukɔm de me kra sɛ asase wesee.
7 Ao Awurade, gye me so ntɛm; me honhom tɔ piti. Mfa wʼanim nhinta me anyɛ saa a, mɛyɛ sɛ wɔn a wɔkɔ amena mu no.
8 Ma mente wʼadɔeɛ a ɛnsa da no ho asɛm daa anɔpa, na mede me ho ato wo so. Kyerɛ me ɛkwan a memfa so, na wo na mema me kra so kyerɛ.
