Dwom 43
1Me Nyankopɔn, bu me bem,
na ka mʼasɛm a etia ɔman a wonsuro wo no ma me;
gye me fi nnaadaafo ne amumɔyɛfo nsam.
2Woyɛ Onyankopɔn, mʼabandennen.
Adɛn nti na woapo me?
Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ menantenantew twa adwo
mʼatamfo nhyɛso nti?
3Soma wo hann ne wo nokware
ma wɔnkyerɛ me kwan;
ma wɔmfa me mmra wo Bepɔw Kronkron no so,
faako a wote no.
4Afei, mɛkɔ Onyankopɔn afɔremuka anim,
mʼanigye ne mʼahosɛpɛw Nyankopɔn nkyɛn.
Mede sanku beyi wo ayɛ,
Onyankopɔn, me Nyankopɔn.
5Me kra, adɛn, na woabotow?
Adɛn na woayɛ basaa wɔ me mu saa?
Fa wo ho to Onyankopɔn so,
na mɛkɔ so ayi no ayɛ,
mʼAgyenkwa ne me Nyankopɔn.
Psalm 43
1My God, when you hand down your decision, let it be in my favor.
Stand up for me against an unfaithful nation.
Save me from those lying and sinful people.
2You are God, my place of safety.
Why have you turned your back on me?
Why must I go around in sorrow?
Why am I beaten down by my enemies?
3Send me your light and your faithful care.
Let them lead me.
Let them bring me back to your holy mountain,
to the place where you live.
4Then I will go to the altar of God.
I will go to God. He is my joy and my delight.
God, you are my God.
I will praise you by playing the lyre.
5My spirit, why are you so sad?
Why are you so upset deep down inside me?
Put your hope in God.
Once again I will have reason to praise him.
He is my Savior and my God.
