Nnwom 83
1 Asaf Dwom. Ao Onyankopɔn, ntena hɔ komm; mmua wʼano, Ao Onyankopɔn, keka wo ho.
The song of the salm of Asaph. God, who schal be lijk thee? God, be thou not stille, nether be thou peesid.
2 Hwɛ sɛdeɛ wʼatamfoɔ keka wɔn ho fa, na wɔn a wɔmpɛ wʼasɛm nso ama wɔn tiri so.
For lo! thin enemyes sowneden; and thei that haten thee reisiden the heed.
3 Wɔde anifire repam atia wo nkurɔfoɔ wɔrepam atia wɔn a wʼakoma da wɔn so no.
Thei maden a wickid counsel on thi puple; and thei thouyten ayens thi seyntis.
4 Wɔka sɛ, “Mommra na yɛnsɛe wɔn sɛ ɔman, sɛdeɛ wɔrenkae Israel din bio.”
Thei seiden, Come ye, and leese we hem fro the folk; and the name of Israel be no more hadde in mynde.
5 Wɔde adwene korɔ bɔ pɔ; na wɔpam tia wo,
For thei thouyten with oon acord;
6 Edom ntomadan ne Ismaelfoɔ, Moabfoɔ ne Hagarfoɔ,
the tabernaclis of Ydumeys, and men of Ismael disposiden a testament togidere ayens thee. Moab, and Agarenus, Jebal, and Amon, and Amalech;
7 Gebalfoɔ ne Amonfoɔ ne Amalekfoɔ, Filistifoɔ ne Tirofoɔ.
alienys with hem that dwellen in Tyre.
8 Asiria mpo akɔka wɔn ho de wɔn ahoɔden akɔhyɛ Lot asefoɔ deɛ mu kena.
For Assur cometh with hem; thei ben maad in to help to the sones of Loth.
9 Yɛ wɔn sɛdeɛ woyɛɛ Midian sɛdeɛ woyɛɛ Sisera ne Yabin wɔ asubɔnten Kison ho no,
Make thou to hem as to Madian, and Sisara; as to Jabyn in the stronde of Sison.
10 wɔn a wɔsɛee wɔ En-Dor na wɔdanee nwira no.
Thei perischiden in Endor; thei weren maad as a toord of erthe.
11 Yɛ wɔn atitire sɛ Oreb ne Seeb, ne wɔn mmapɔmma nyinaa sɛ Seba ne Salmuna,
Putte thou the prynces of hem as Oreb and Zeb; and Zebee and Salmana. Alle the princis of hem, that seiden;
12 a wɔkaa sɛ, “Momma yɛmfa Onyankopɔn adidibea nsase no.”
Holde we bi eritage the seyntuarie of God.
13 Ao me Onyankopɔn, yɛ wɔn sɛ twahoframa mu mfuturo, sɛ ntɛtɛ a mframa bɔ guo.
My God, putte thou hem as a whele; and as stobil bifor the face of the wynde.
14 Sɛdeɛ ogya hye kwaeɛ, na ogyaframa sɔ nkokoɔ mu hye no no,
As fier that brenneth a wode; and as flawme brynnynge hillis.
15 saa ara na fa wʼahum taa wɔn na fa wo mframa a ano yɛ den no hunahuna wɔn.
So thou schalt pursue hem in thi tempeste; and thou schalt disturble hem in thin ire.
16 Ma animguaseɛ nka wɔn, na ama nnipa apɛ wo din akyiri ɛkwan, Ao Awurade.
Lord, fille thou the faces of hem with schenschipe; and thei schulen seke thi name.
17 Ma wɔn anim ngu ase na wɔn abasa mu ntu; ma wɔnwuwu wɔ animguaseɛ mu.
Be thei aschamed, and be thei disturblid in to world of world; and be thei schent and perische thei.
18 Ma wɔnhunu sɛ wo a wo din de Awurade no, wo nko ara ne Ɔsorosoroni wɔ asase so nyinaa. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ sɛ wɔnto no wɔ gittit sankuo nne so.
And knowe thei, that the Lord is name to thee; thou aloone art the hiyeste in ech lond.
