1 Ɔsorokorɔ dwom. Ao Awurade, mefiri ebunu mu resu frɛ wo;

The song of greces. Lord, Y criede to thee fro depthes; Lord, here thou mi vois.

2 Ao Awurade tie me nne. Wɛn wʼaso ma me nkotosrɛ.

Thin eeris be maad ententif; in to the vois of my biseching.

3 Ao Awurade, sɛ wobu yɛn bɔne ho nkonta a, anka hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina ano?

Lord, if thou kepist wickidnessis; Lord, who schal susteyne?

4 Nanso, wowɔ bɔnefakyɛ; ɛno enti wɔsuro wo.

For merci is at thee; and, Lord, for thi lawe Y abood thee. Mi soule susteynede in his word; my soule hopide in the Lord.

5 Metwɛn Awurade, me kra twɛn, na nʼasɛm mu na mede mʼanidasoɔ ahyɛ.

Fro the morewtid keping til to niyt;

6 Me kra twɛne Awurade sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twɛne adekyeɛ, sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twene adekyeɛ.

Israel hope in the Lord.

7 Ao Israel, ma wʼani nna Awurade so, ɛfiri sɛ Awurade wɔ adɔeɛ a ɛwɔ hɔ daa na ɔgyeɛ amapa wɔ ne mu.

For whi merci is at the Lord; and plenteous redempcioun is at hym.

8 Ɔno ankasa bɛgye Israel afiri wɔn bɔne nyinaa mu.

And he schal ayen bie Israel; fro alle the wickidnessis therof.
