< Nnwom 40 >
1 Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Dawid dwom. Mede boasetɔ twɛnee Awurade; na ɔhwɛɛ me, na ɔtee me sufrɛ.
Ngalindela lokuyilindela iNkosi; yangithobela, yezwa ukukhala kwami.
2 Ɔyii me firii amena a emu yɛ toro mu, firii dɔteɛ ne atɛkyɛ mu; ɔde me nan sii ɔbotan so na ɔmaa me baabi pa gyinaeɛ.
Yangenyula emgodini ohlokomayo, exhaphozini lodaka, yabeka inyawo zami phezu kwedwala, yaqinisa izinyathelo zami.
3 Ɔde dwom foforɔ hyɛɛ mʼanom, ayɛyi dwom a yɛde ma yɛn Onyankopɔn. Bebree bɛhunu na wɔasuro na wɔde wɔn werɛ ahyɛ Awurade mu.
Yafaka ingoma entsha emlonyeni wami, indumiso kuNkulunkulu wethu. Abanengi bazabona besabe, bathembe eNkosini.
4 Nhyira ne onipa a ɔde Awurade yɛ nʼahotɔsoɔ, deɛ ɔmfa nʼani nto ahomasoɔ so, ne wɔn a wɔmane di anyame huhuo akyi.
Ubusisiwe umuntu oyenzayo iNkosi ibe lithemba lakhe, ongaphendukeli kwabazigqajayo, lalabo abaphendukela emangeni.
5 Ao Awurade me Onyankopɔn woayɛ anwanwadeɛ bebree. Nneɛma a wohyehyɛ maa yɛn no obiara ntumi nka ne nyinaa nkyerɛ wo; sɛ meka sɛ mereka ne nyinaa ho asɛm a ɛbɛdɔɔso dodo.
Minengi wena oyenzileyo, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu wami, imisebenzi yakho emangalisayo lemicabango yakho kithi; ingelandiswe ngokulandelana kuwe. Ngingayilandisa ngiyitsho, minengi kulokuthi ibalwe.
6 Wompɛ afɔrebɔ ne ayɛyɛdeɛ, woabue mʼaso ama mahunu; woampɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne bɔne afɔdeɛ.
Umhlatshelo lomnikelo kawukufisi; izindlebe zami uzivulile; umnikelo wokutshiswa lomnikelo wesono kawuwubizi.
7 Na mekaa sɛ “Mewɔ ha, merebɛyɛ deɛ wopɛ sɛ meyɛ, sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ afa me ho wɔ Mmara nwoma no mu no.
Ngasengisithi: Khangela, ngiyeza; emqulwini wogwalo kulotshiwe ngami.
8 Ao me Onyankopɔn, mepɛ sɛ meyɛ wʼapɛdeɛ; mede wo mmara ahyɛ mʼakoma mu.”
Ngiyathokoza ukwenza intando yakho, Nkulunkulu wami, lomlayo wakho uphakathi kwemibilini yami.
9 Meka wo tenenee ho asɛm wɔ dwabɔ kɛseɛ ase; meremmua mʼano, Ao Awurade, sɛdeɛ wonim no.
Ngitshumayele ukulunga ebandleni elikhulu; khangela, kangibambanga indebe zami, Nkosi, wena uyakwazi.
10 Meremfa wo tenenee ho asɛm nsie mʼakoma mu; meka wo nokorɛ ne wo nkwagyeɛ ho asɛm. Mankata wʼadɔeɛ ne wo nokorɛ so wɔ dwabɔ kɛseɛ no ase.
Ukulunga kwakho kangikufihlanga phakathi kwenhliziyo yami; ngikhulumile ngobuqotho bakho langosindiso lwakho; kangifihlanga uthandolomusa wakho leqiniso lakho ebandleni elikhulu.
11 Ao Awurade, nyi wʼahummɔborɔ mfiri me so; ma wʼadɔeɛ ne wo nokorɛ mmɔ me ho ban daa.
Wena Nkosi, ungangigodleli isihawu sakho; uthandolomusa wakho leqiniso lakho kakungilondoloze njalonjalo.
12 Ɔhaw bebree atwa me ho ahyia; mʼamumuyɛ abu afa me so enti menhunu adeɛ bio. Ɛdɔɔso sene me tiri so nwi, na mʼakoma aboto wɔ me mu.
Ngoba ububi obungebalwe bungihanqile, iziphambeko zami zingibambile, ukuze ngingabi lakho ukubona; zinengi okwedlula inwele zekhanda lami; ngakho inhliziyo yami ingitshiyile.
13 Ao Awurade, ma ɛnsɔ wʼani sɛ wobɛboa me; Ao Awurade, bra ntɛm bɛboa me.
Thokoza, Nkosi, ukungikhulula. Nkosi, phangisa ukungisiza.
14 Wɔn a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔkum me no nyinaa, ma wɔn anim ngu ase na wɔnyɛ basaa; ma wɔn a wɔpɛ sɛ mesɛeɛ no, wɔmfa aniwuo nsane wɔn akyi.
Kabayangeke babe lenhloni ndawonye abadinga umphefumulo wami ukuwuchitha; kababuyiselwe emuva bayangiswe abangifisela okubi.
15 Wɔn a wɔka “Ɔtwea! Ɔtwea!” kyerɛ me no, ma wɔn ho nnwiri wɔn wɔ wɔn ankasa animguaseɛ ho.
Kabachitheke kube ngumvuzo wehlazo labo abathi kimi: Aha, aha!
16 Nanso ma wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ wo nyinaa ani nnye na wɔnni ahurisie wɔ wo mu; ma wɔn a wɔdɔ wo nkwagyeɛ no nka daa sɛ, “Momma Awurade so!”
Kabathabe bajabule kuwe bonke abakudingayo; abathanda usindiso lwakho kabatsho njalonjalo bathi: Kayikhuliswe iNkosi!
17 Nanso meyɛ ohiani ne mmɔborɔni; ma Awurade nnwene me ho. Wone me ɔboafoɔ ne me gyefoɔ; Ao me Onyankopɔn, bra ntɛm.
Kodwa ngingumyanga ngiyaswela; iNkosi iyangikhumbula; ungumsizi wami lomkhululi wami; Nkulunkulu wami, ungalibali.
