Nnwom 79:1-13
Asaf dwom.+
79 O Onyankopɔn, amanaman no aba w’agyapade so;+Wɔagu w’asɔrefi kronkron no ho fĩ;+Wɔasɛe Yerusalem pasaa.+
2 Wɔde wo nkoa afunu ama wim nnomaa adi,Na wɔde w’anokwafo nam ama asaase so mmoa.+
3 Wɔahwie wɔn mogya agu te sɛ nsu de atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia,Na obiara anka a obetumi asie wɔn.+
4 Wɔn a wɔtete bɛn yɛn no, yɛn anim agu ase wɔ wɔn anim;+Wɔn a wɔatwa yɛn ho ahyia no tweetwee yɛn di yɛn ho fɛw.
5 O Yehowa, wo bo befuw akosi da bɛn? Wo bo befuw afebɔɔ anaa?+
W’abufuw bɛdɛw sɛ ogya akosi da bɛn?+
6 Hwie w’abufuw gu aman a wonnim wo no so,Na hwie gu ahenni a wɔmmɔ wo din no so.+
7 Efisɛ wɔamene Yakob,Na wɔama ne kurow adan amamfo.+
8 Mmu yɛn agyanom mfomso ngu yɛn so.+
Hu yɛn mmɔbɔ ntɛm,+Efisɛ wɔabrɛ yɛn ase koraa.
9 O yɛn nkwagye Nyankopɔn, boa yɛn+Esiane wo din kɛse no nti.Wo din nti, gye yɛn na fa yɛn bɔne kyɛ yɛn.*+
10 Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ amanaman no ka sɛ: “Wɔn Nyankopɔn no wɔ he?”+
Wɔn a wɔahwie wo nkoa mogya agu no, sɛ wutua wɔn so ka wɔ amanaman no mu a,Ma yɛn aniwa nhu.+
11 Ma ɔdeduani apinisi nnu w’asom.+
Wɔn a wɔabu wɔn kumfɔ no,* fa wo tumi kɛse no* kora wɔn so.*+
12 O Yehowa, tua wɔn a wɔatwa yɛn ho ahyia no ka mpɛn ason,+Efisɛ wɔatwa wo adapaa.+
13 Na yɛn a yɛyɛ wo man ne wo nguan a wohwɛ yɛn so no,+Yɛbɛda wo ase akosi daa;Yebeyi wo ayɛ awo ntoatoaso nyinaa mu.+
