Bɔne fafiri

32 Nhyira nka wɔn a wɔde wɔn bɔne firi wɔn, na wogyaa wɔn bɔne mu ma ɛka. Nhyira nka nea Awurade nka se wayɛ bɔne bi na ɔde ne ho wɔ nnaadaa nyinaa mu.

Bere a manka me bɔne no, ɛma mebrɛe me su mu da no nyinaa. Wotwee m’aso awia ne anadwo, Awurade; m’ahoɔden so tewee koraa sɛ nea ɔhyew ka fonwini a owia ahye no. Awia ne anadwo, wotwee m’aso, Awurade; m’ahoɔden sae koraa te sɛ fonwini a owia ahye no. Afei mekaa me bɔne kyerɛɛ wo. Mamfa bɔne a mayɛ ansie. Meyɛɛ m’adwene sɛ mɛka akyerɛ wo, na wode ne nyinaa kyɛɛ me.

Enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔn a wodi wo nokware no su frɛ wo ahohia mu. Sɛ ɔhaw ntoatoaso ba wɔn ba a, ɛrenka wɔn.

Wone me guankɔbea; wubegye me afi ɔhaw mu. Meto wo nkwagye ho dwom dennen efisɛ, wobɔ me ho ban. Awurade se, “Mɛkyerɛ wo ɔkwan a ɛsɛ sɛ wofa so; metu wo fo. Monnyɛ sɛ ɔpɔnkɔ anaa afurumpɔnkɔ a wonnim hwee nti, wɔnam nnareka ne hama so kyerɛ no kwan ma ɔbrɛ ne ho ase no.”

10 Ɔdebɔneyɛfo behu amane, nanso wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho to Awurade so no benya ogye afi ne daa dɔ mu. 11 Mo a moyɛ atreneefo no, momma mo ani nnye na munni ahurusi wɔ nea Awurade ayɛ no ho. Mo a mutie no, monteɛm nni ahurusi!

Psalm 32

Of David. A maskil.[a]

Blessed is the one
    whose transgressions are forgiven,
    whose sins are covered.(A)
Blessed is the one
    whose sin the Lord does not count against them(B)
    and in whose spirit is no deceit.(C)

When I kept silent,(D)
    my bones wasted away(E)
    through my groaning(F) all day long.
For day and night
    your hand was heavy(G) on me;
my strength was sapped(H)
    as in the heat of summer.[b]

Then I acknowledged my sin to you
    and did not cover up my iniquity.(I)
I said, “I will confess(J)
    my transgressions(K) to the Lord.”
And you forgave
    the guilt of my sin.(L)

Therefore let all the faithful pray to you
    while you may be found;(M)
surely the rising(N) of the mighty waters(O)
    will not reach them.(P)
You are my hiding place;(Q)
    you will protect me from trouble(R)
    and surround me with songs of deliverance.(S)

I will instruct(T) you and teach you(U) in the way you should go;
    I will counsel you with my loving eye on(V) you.
Do not be like the horse or the mule,
    which have no understanding
but must be controlled by bit and bridle(W)
    or they will not come to you.
10 Many are the woes of the wicked,(X)
    but the Lord’s unfailing love
    surrounds the one who trusts(Y) in him.

11 Rejoice in the Lord(Z) and be glad, you righteous;
    sing, all you who are upright in heart!
