Psalms 36
1 Unto the end, for the servant of God, David himself. The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin: there is no fear of God before his eyes.
Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Awurade ɔsomfoɔ Dawid dwom. Nkɔmhyɛ bi da mʼakoma so a ɛfa omumuyɛfoɔ mmarato ho. Wɔnnsuro Onyankopɔn.
2 For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, that his iniquity may be found unto hatred.
Na ɔno ankasa ani so no, ɔdaadaa ne ho dodo enti mma ɔnhunu ne bɔne nnyae yɛ.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile: he would not understand that he might do well.
Nʼanom nsɛm yɛ atirimuɔden ne nnaadaa; ɔnnim nyansa bio, na wayɛ papa.
4 He hath devised iniquity on his bed, he hath set himself on every way that is not good: but evil he hath not hated.
Ɔda ne mpa so mpo a, ɔbɔ pɔ bɔne; na ɔgyaa ne ho ma bɔne ɛkwan na ɔmpo deɛ ɛnyɛ.
5 O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, and thy truth reacheth, even to the clouds.
Awurade, wʼadɔeɛ duru sorosoro wo nokorɛdie duru ewiem tɔnn.
6 Thy justice is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are a great deep. Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord:
Wo tenenee te sɛ mmepɔ akɛseɛ. Wʼatɛntenenee mu dɔ sɛ ɛpo bunu. Ao Awurade, wokora nnipa ne mmoa nyinaa so.
7 O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! But the children of men shall put their trust under the covert of thy wings.
Wʼadɔeɛ a ɛnsa da no som bo! Nnipa mu akɛseɛ ne nketewa nya hintabea wɔ wo ntaban nwunu ase.
8 They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure.
Wɔdi deɛ abu soɔ wɔ wo fie woma wɔnom firi wʼanika asutene no mu.
9 For with thee is the fountain of life; and in thy light we shall see light.
Wo nkyɛn na nkwa asutire wɔ; wo hann mu na yɛhunu hann.
10 Extend thy mercy to them that know thee, and thy justice to them that are right in heart.
Kɔ so dɔ wɔn a wɔnim wo, ma wo tenenee ntena wɔn a wɔtene akoma mu.
11 Let not the foot of pride come to me, and let not the hand of the sinner move me.
Mma ɔhantanni nan ntia me anaa omumuyɛfoɔ nsa nnsunsum me.
12 There the workers of iniquity are fallen, they are cast out, and could not stand.
Hwɛ sɛdeɛ nnebɔneyɛfoɔ ahwehwe ase, wɔdeda hɔ a wɔrentumi nsɔre bio.
