22 Ɛfiri sɛ, manante Awurade akwan so;
Mentwee me ho mfirii me Onyankopɔn ho nkɔyɛɛ bɔne.

Ɔyɛ akokyɛm

Ɔma me gyina sorɔnsorɔmmea.
35 Ɔsiesie me ma ɔko;

39 Meyamoo wɔn, mebɔɔ wɔn hwee fam, na wɔantumi ansɔre;

44 “Womaa me nkonimdie wɔ wɔn a wɔbɔ me kwaadu so.
Woahwɛ sɛ mɛyɛ amanaman sodifoɔ;

47 Awurade te ase! Ayɛyi nka me botan,

48 Ɔno ne Onyankopɔn a ɔtɔ wɔn a wɔha me so awere;
ɔka amanaman no hyɛ mʼase
49 na ɔgye me firi mʼatamfoɔ nsam.
Wode me si baabi a mʼatamfoɔ nnuru,
