18 O Yehowa, wone m’ahoɔden,+ na medɔ wo.
2 Yehowa ne me botan, m’abannennen, ne me Gyefo.+
Me Nyankopɔn yɛ me botan.+ Ɔno ne me guankɔbea,
Me kyɛm ne me nkwagye abɛn, me hintabea.+
3 Yehowa fata ayeyi paa, na ɔno na misu frɛ no;
Obegye me afi m’atamfo nsam.+
4 Owu nhama bɛkyekyeree me;+
Ahuhufo a wɔte sɛ nsuyiri hunahunaa me.+

Owu sum mfiri wɔ m’anim.+

Misu frɛɛ me Nyankopɔn daa.
Ɔtee me nne wɔ n’asɔrefi hɔ,+
Na me sufrɛ no duu n’asom.+
7 Ɛnna asaase hinhimii, na ɛwosowee;+
Mmepɔw fapem wosowee,
Na n’abufuw nti, ɛwosowee biribiri.+
8 Wusiw fi ne hwene mu puei
Na ogya a ɛhyew ade fi n’anom bae;+
Nnyansramma fi ne mu dɛwee.

Ɔtenaa ɔbɔfo ntaban so tow hoo baa fam.+
11 Afei ɔde esum twaa ne ho hyiae;+
Ɔde osu a amuna tumm ne omununkum kusuu+
Kataa no so te sɛ apata.
12 Hann a efi n’anim nti,
Asukɔtweaa ne nnyansramma fi omununkum mu bae.
13 Ɛnna Yehowa fi ɔsoro boboom;+
Ɔsorosoroni no maa ne nne so,+
Na asukɔtweaa ne nnyansramma nso bae.
14 Ɔtotow n’agyan, na ɛbɔɔ wɔn hwetee;+
Ɔmaa n’anyinam pae guu wɔn so, na wɔn ani so tan wɔn.+
15 Nsu ase daa adi;+
O Yehowa, asaase fapem yii ne ho adi,
W’animka ne wo hwene mu home nti.+
16 Ɔteɛɛ ne nsa fii soro;
Osoo me mu yii me fii nsu a emu dɔ mu.+
17 Ogyee me fii me tamfo hoɔdenfo nsam,+
Wɔn a wokyi me na wɔn ho yɛ den sen me no.+
18 Wɔbɛtoaa me m’amanehunu da,+
Nanso Yehowa twitwa gyee me.
19 Ɔde me kɔɔ baabi a bɔne biara renka me;
Ɔpɛ m’asɛm nti, ogyee me.+
20 Me trenee nti, Yehowa tua me ka;+
Me ho a enni asɛm nti, ɔma me akatua.+
21 Mafa Yehowa akwan so,
Na minnyaw me Nyankopɔn nkɔyɛɛ bɔne.
22 N’atemmusɛm nyinaa wɔ m’anim;
N’ahyɛde nso, meremmu no animtiaa.
23 Meremma asɛm mma me ho wɔ n’anim,+
Na mɛtwe me ho afi bɔne ho.+
24 Me trenee ne me ho a enni asɛm nti,+
Ma Yehowa mma me akatua.+
25 Nea ɔyɛ ɔnokwafo no, wo nso wubedi no nokware;+
Ɔbarima a ne ho nni asɛm no, wobɛma wahu sɛ wo ho nni asɛm;+
26 Nea ɔyɛ kronkron no, wo nso wobɛyɛ kronkron ama no,+
Na nea ɔyɛ ɔdaadaafo no, wobɛkyerɛ no sɛ w’ani atew kyɛn no.+
27 Wutwitwa gye mmɔborɔwafo;+
Na ahantanfo de, wobrɛ wɔn ase.+
28 O Yehowa, wo na woma me kanea hyerɛn;

29 Woboa me ma metow hyɛ akorɔmfo-werɛmfo dɔm so;+

30 Nokware Nyankopɔn no kwan di mu;+

Ɔyɛ ɔkyɛm ma wɔn a wɔde no ayɛ wɔn guankɔbea nyinaa.+
31 Hena na ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn ka Yehowa ho?+
Na hena na ɔyɛ ɔbotan ka yɛn Nyankopɔn ho?+
32 Nokware Nyankopɔn no na ɔde ahoɔden kata me ho,+
Na ɔbɛma me kwan adi mu.+
33 Ɔma me nan yɛ sɛ ɔwansan de,
Na ɔma migyina sorosoro.+
34 Ɔkyerɛ me nsa akodi;
Me basa tumi kuntun kɔbere agyan mu.
35 Wode wo nkwagye kyɛm ma me,+
Wo nsa nifa na ekura me mu,
Na w’ahobrɛase ma meyɛ kɛse.+
36 Wotrɛw m’anammɔn kwan mu;

Merensan kosi sɛ mɛtɔre wɔn ase.

Wobɛma m’atamfo ahwe ase me nan ase.+
40 Wobɛma m’atamfo adan wɔn ho aguan,
Na wɔn a wokyi me no, mɛsɛe wɔn.+
41 Wosu hwehwɛ mmoa, nanso ogyefo biara nni hɔ;

42 Mɛyam wɔn muhumuhu sɛ mfuturu a ɛnam mframa mu;
Mɛtow wɔn agu sɛ abɔnten so atɛkyɛ.
43 Ɔman a wɔkasa tia me no, wubegye me afi wɔn nsam.+
Wobɛma madi amanaman so.+
Ɔman a minnim wɔn no, wɔn na wɔbɛsom me.+
44 Atesɛm kɛkɛ bɛma wɔayɛ aso ama me;
Ahɔho bɛbrɛ wɔn ho ase ama me.+
45 Ahɔho bɛpa abaw;
Wɔde ahopopo befi wɔn hintabea apue.
46 Yehowa te ase! Ayeyi nka me Botan no!+
Me nkwagye Nyankopɔn no, ma yɛnkamfo no.+
47 Nokware Nyankopɔn no na otua m’atamfo so ka ma me;+
Ɔka aman gu me nan ase.
48 Ogye me fi m’atamfo a wɔn bo afuw nsam;
Woma me so, na wɔn a wɔtow hyɛ me so no annya me;+
Wugye me fi owudifo nsam.
49 O Yehowa, ɛno nti, mɛkamfo wo wɔ amanaman mu,+
Na mɛto ayeyi nnwom ama wo din.+
50 Nkwagye nnwuma akɛse na ɔyɛ ma ne hene,+
Ɔda ɔdɔ a enni huammɔ adi kyerɛ nea wasra no no,+
Dawid ne n’aseni daa.+
