3 Mesu frɛ Awurade; ɔno na ayɛyie sɛ no, ɛfiri sɛ ɔgye me firi mʼatamfoɔ nsam.
4 Owuo nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn kyekyeree me; na ɔsɛeɛ asorɔkye bu faa me so.
5 Damena nhoma kyekyeree me; owuo ankasa too me anihaa. (Sheol )
6 Mʼahohia mu, mesu mefrɛɛ Awurade. Mesu mefrɛɛ me Onyankopɔn pɛɛ mmoa. Ɔfiri nʼasɔrefie hɔ tee me nne; me sufrɛ baa nʼanim, na ɛkɔɔ nʼasom.

8 Wisie firii ne hwene mu; ogyaframa firii nʼanom, na egyasramma dɛre firii mu.
9 Ɔfirii ɔsoro baa fam; na omununkum kabii duruu ne nan ase.
10 Ɔte Kerubim so tu kɔɔ soro; gyaagyaa ne ho wɔ mframa ntaban so.
11 Ɔde sum kataa ne ho, osu a amuna tumm atwa ne ho ahyia.
12 Hann kɛseɛ hyerɛn wɔ nʼanim, na omununkum a asukɔtweaa ne anyinam wɔ mu firii ne ho hyerɛn mu baeɛ.
13 Awurade bobɔɔ mu firii soro; Ɔsorosoroni no nne gyegyeeɛ bio.
14 Ɔtoo ne bɛmma no de bɔɔ atamfoɔ no hweteeɛ, ɔde anyinam a ano yɛn den pamoo wɔn.
15 Ɛpo mu mmɔnka ho yiyiiɛ na asase nnyinasoɔ ho daa hɔ, ɛsiane wʼanimka ne ahomeguo a ɛfiri wo hwene mu no enti, Ao Awurade.
16 Ɔfiri ɔsoro baa ɛfam bɛsɔɔ me mu; ɔtwee me firii nsuo a emu dɔ mu.
17 Ɔgyee me firii me ɔtamfoɔ hoɔdenfoɔ nsam, wɔn a wɔn ani sa me, na wɔn ho yɛ den dodo ma me no.
18 Wɔbaa me so wɔ mʼamanehunu da mu, nanso Awurade pagyaa me.
19 Ɔde me baa baabi a ɛhɔ trɛ; ɔgyee me, ɛfiri sɛ nʼani sɔɔ me.
20 Awurade ne me adi no sɛdeɛ me tenenee teɛ; wahwɛ me nsa a ɛho teɛ so atua me ka.
21 Manante Awurade akwan so. Mentwee me ho mfirii me Onyankopɔn ho nkɔyɛɛ bɔne.
22 Madi ne mmara nyinaa so: memmuu nʼahyɛdeɛ so.
23 Me ho nni asɛm wɔ Onyankopɔn anim, na matwe me ho afiri bɔne ho.
24 Awurade agyina me teneneeyɛ ne me nsa a ɛho teɛ wɔ nʼanim so atua me ka.
25 Woda wo ho adi sɛ ɔnokwafoɔ kyerɛ wɔn a wɔdi nokorɛ, wɔn a wɔdi mu nso wo kyerɛ wɔn sɛ wodi mu.
26 Woyɛ kronn ma wɔn a wɔyɛ kronn, na amumuyɛfoɔ deɛ, wokyiri wɔn.
27 Wogye ahobrɛasefoɔ nkwa, na wobrɛ ahantanfoɔ ase.

29 Wʼahoɔden a wode ma me enti, metumi ka akodɔm gu; me Onyankopɔn enti, metumi foro ɔfasuo.
30 Onyankopɔn deɛ, nʼakwan yɛ pɛ; Awurade bɔhyɛ nyinaa ba mu. Ɔyɛ akokyɛm ma wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ banbɔ wɔ ne mu.
31 Na hwan na ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn ka Awurade ho? Na hwan na ɔyɛ Ɔbotan no, gye sɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn no.
32 Ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn na ɔma me ahoɔden, na ɔma me kwan yɛ pɛ.
33 Ɔma mʼanammɔn ho yɛ hare sɛ ɔforoteɛ deɛ. Ɔma me gyina sorɔnsorɔmmea.
34 Ɔsiesie me ma ɔko, na mʼabasa tumi kuntunu kɔbere mfrafraeɛ tadua.

36 Woabɔ ɛkwan tɛtrɛɛ ama me nan sɛdeɛ ɛrenwatiri.
37 Metaa mʼatamfoɔ kɔtoo wɔn; mansane mʼakyi kɔsii sɛ mesɛee wɔn.

39 Wode akodie ahoɔden maa me; womaa mʼatamfoɔ bɔɔ wɔn mu ase wɔ me nan ase.
40 Womaa mʼatamfoɔ danee wɔn ho dwaneeɛ, na mesɛe wɔn a wɔtan me.
41 Wɔsu pɛɛ mmoa, nanso obiara ammɛgye wɔn, wɔfrɛɛ Awurade, nanso wammua.
42 Meyamoo wɔn sɛ mfuturo a mframa bɔ guo; me hwiee wɔn guiɛ sɛ mmɔntene so atɛkyɛ.
43 Woagye me afiri nnipa no ntohyɛsoɔ mu, woayɛ me amanaman no ti; nnipa a mennim wɔn abɛyɛ mʼasomfoɔ.
44 Wɔte me nka pɛ a, wɔyɛ ɔsetie ma me; ananafoɔ koto mʼanim.
45 Wɔn nyinaa botoboto; wɔfiri wɔn abandenden mu ba ahopopoɔ so.
46 Awurade te ase! Ayɛyi nka me Botan! Wɔmma Onyankopɔn me Gyefoɔ no din so!
47 Ɔno ne Onyankopɔn a ɔtɔ awere ma me, ɔno na ɔka amanaman hyɛ mʼase,
48 ɔno na ɔgye me firi mʼatamfoɔ nsam. Wopagyaa me sii mʼatamfoɔ so, wogyee me firii basabasayɛfoɔ nsam.
49 Ɛno enti, mɛkamfo wo wɔ amanaman mu, Ao Awurade. Mɛto ayɛyie dwom ama wo din.
