Nnwom 94
1 Awurade, Onyankopɔn a wotɔ werɛ, Onyankopɔn a wotɔ werɛ, hyerɛn.
God is Lord of veniauncis; God of veniauncis dide freli.
2 Sɔre, Ao wo a woyɛ asase so ɔtemmufoɔ, tua ahantanfoɔ ka sɛdeɛ ɛfata wɔn.
Be thou enhaunsid that demest the erthe; yelde thou yeldinge to proude men.
3 Ao Awurade, ɛnkɔsi da bɛn, amumuyɛfoɔ nnye wɔn ani nkɔsi da bɛn?
Lord, hou longe synneris; hou longe schulen synneris haue glorie?
4 Wɔkasa ahantan so; ahohoahoa ahyɛ abɔnefoɔ nyinaa ma.
Thei schulen telle out, and schulen speke wickidnesse; alle men schulen speke that worchen vnriytfulnesse.
5 Ao Awurade, wɔdwerɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ; wɔhyɛ wʼagyapadeɛ so.
Lord, thei han maad lowe thi puple; and thei han disesid thin eritage.
6 Wɔkunkumm akunafoɔ ne amanfrafoɔ; na wɔdi nwisiaa awu.
Thei killiden a widowe and a comelyng; and thei han slayn fadirles children and modirles.
7 Wɔka sɛ, “Awurade nhunu, Yakob Onyankopɔn ayi nʼani.”
And thei seiden, The Lord schal not se; and God of Jacob schal not vndurstonde.
8 Monhwɛ yie, mo agyimifoɔ a mowɔ nnipa no mu; nkwaseafoɔ, da bɛn na mobɛhunu nyansa?
Ye vnwise men in the puple, vndirstonde; and, ye foolis, lerne sum tyme.
9 Deɛ ɔbɔɔ aso no, ɔrente asɛm anaa? Deɛ ɔyɛɛ ani no, ɔrenhunu adeɛ anaa?
Schal not he here, that plauntide the eere; ethere biholdith not he, that made the iye?
10 Deɛ ɔtenetene aman so no rentwe aso anaa? Deɛ ɔkyerɛkyerɛ onipa no nnim nyansa anaa?
Schal not he repreue, that chastisith folkis; which techith man kunnyng?
11 Awurade nim onipa nsusuiɛ; ɔnim sɛ ɛnkɔsi hwee.
The Lord knowith the thouytis of men; that tho ben veyne.
12 Ao Awurade, nhyira ne onipa a wotenetene ne so, onipa a wokyerɛ no wo mmara no;
Blessid is the man, whom thou, Lord, hast lerned; and hast tauyt him of thi lawe.
13 Woma wɔn ɔhome firi amanehunu nna mu, kɔsi sɛ wɔbɛtu amena ama amumuyɛfoɔ.
That thou aswage hym fro yuele daies; til a diche be diggid to the synner.
14 Awurade rempo ne nkurɔfoɔ; na ɔrennya nʼagyapadeɛ hɔ da.
For the Lord schal not putte awei his puple; and he schal not forsake his eritage.
15 Atemmuo bɛgyina teneneeyɛ so bio, na wɔn a wɔn akoma mu teɛ nyinaa bɛdi so.
Til riytfulnesse be turned in to dom; and who ben niy it, alle that ben of riytful herte.
16 Hwan na ɔbɛsɔre atia amumuyɛfoɔ ama me? Hwan na ɔbɛsɔre atia abɔnefoɔ ama me?
Who schal rise with me ayens mysdoeris; ether who schal stonde with me ayens hem that worchen wickidnesse?
17 Sɛ Awurade ammoa me a, anka mekɔɔ owuo kommyɛ mu ntɛm so.
No but for the Lord helpide me; almest my soule hadde dwellid in helle.
18 Ɛberɛ a mekaa sɛ, “Menan rewatiri” no, Ao Awurade, wo dɔ no sɔɔ me mu.
If Y seide, My foot was stirid; Lord, thi merci helpide me.
19 Ɛberɛ a me dadwene dɔɔso no, wʼawerɛkyekye maa me kra abotɔyam.
Aftir the multitude of my sorewis in myn herte; thi coumfortis maden glad my soule.
20 Ɔhene a porɔeɛ ahyɛ no ma no ne wo wɔ ayɔnkofa anaa? Wʼani gye ahennie a ɛde amanehunu ba ho anaa?
Whether the seete of wickidnesse cleueth to thee; that makist trauel in comaundement?
21 Awudifoɔ bɔ mu tia ateneneefoɔ na wɔn a wɔdi bem no, wɔbu wɔn kumfɔ.
Thei schulen take ayens the soule of a iust man; and thei schulen condempne innocent blood.
22 Nanso Awurade yɛ mʼaban; na me Onyankopɔn ayɛ ɔbotan a ne mu na menya ahintaeɛ.
And the Lord was maad to me in to refuyt; and my God was maad in to the help of myn hope.
23 Ɔbɛtua wɔn nnebɔne no so ka na wɔn amumuyɛ enti, wasɛe wɔn; Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn bɛsɛe wɔn.
And he schal yelde to hem the wickidnesse of hem; and in the malice of hem he schal lese hem, oure Lord God schal lese hem.
