Nnwom 15

1 Dawid dwom. Awurade, hwan na ɔbɛsoeɛ wo kronkronbea hɔ? Hwan na ɔbɛtena wo bepɔ kronkron no so?

A Psalm of David. Jehovah, who doth sojourn in Thy tent? Who doth dwell in Thy holy hill?

2 Deɛ ne ho nni asɛm na ɔyɛ deɛ ɛtene, deɛ ɔka nokorɛ a ɛfiri nʼakomam

He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.

3 na ɔmfa ne tɛkrɛma nsɛe nnipa deɛ ɔnnyɛ ne yɔnko bɔne na ɔmmu ne yɔnko onipa abomfiaa,

He hath not slandered by his tongue, He hath not done to his friend evil; And reproach he hath not lifted up Against his neighbour.

4 deɛ ɔbu afideyɛni animtiaa na ɔde anidie ma wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, deɛ ɔdi ne ntam so ɛberɛ a ɛtia no mpo,

Despised in his eyes [is] a rejected one, And those fearing Jehovah he doth honour. He hath sworn to suffer evil, and changeth not;

5 deɛ ɔde ne sika bɔ bosea a ɔnnye nsiho na ɔnnye adanmudeɛ ntia deɛ ɔdi bem. Deɛ ɔyɛ yeinom no renhinhim da.

His silver he hath not given in usury, And a bribe against the innocent Hath not taken; Whoso is doing these is not moved to the age!
