Psalms 104
1 Bless Jehovah, O my soul. O Jehovah my God, thou are very great. Thou are clothed with honor and majesty,
Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade! Ao Awurade me Onyankopɔn, woyɛ ɔkɛseɛ! Wɔafira tumi ne animuonyam.
2 who covers thyself with light as with a garment, who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,
Ɔde hann akata ne ho sɛ atadeɛ; ɔtrɛ ɔsoro mu te sɛ ntomadan,
3 who lays the beams of his chambers in the waters, who makes the clouds his chariot, who walks upon the wings of the wind,
na ɔde ne mpia mpunan sisi nsuo so. Ɔde omununkum yɛ ne teaseɛnam na ɔde nante mframa ntaban so.
4 who makes his agents spirits, his ministers a flame of fire,
Ɔsoma nʼabɔfoɔ sɛ mframa, na ɔsoma nʼasomfoɔ sɛ ogyadɛreɛ.
5 who laid the foundations of the earth that it should not be moved forever.
Ɔde asase asi ne fapem so na ɛrenhinhim da.
6 Thou covered it with the deep as with a vesture. The waters stood above the mountains.
Wode ebunu kataa so sɛ atadeɛ na nsuo gyinaa mmepɔ no so.
7 At thy rebuke they fled. At the voice of thy thunder they hastened away.
Nanso wʼanimka maa nsuo no dwaneeɛ, wʼaprannaa nnyegyeeɛ ma wɔdwaneeɛ;
8 The mountains rose, the valleys sank down to the place which thou had founded for them.
Wɔtenetenee faa mmepɔ so, kɔɔ mmɔnhwa mu tɔnn, kɔguu baabi a wode ama wɔn no.
9 Thou have set a bound that they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.
Wotoo ɔhyeɛ a wɔrentumi ntra; na wɔammɛkata asase so bio.
10 He sends forth springs into the valleys. They run among the mountains.
Ɔma nsuwa tene fa abɔn mu; ɛtene fa mmepɔ ntam.
11 They give drink to every beast of the field. The wild donkeys quench their thirst.
Ɔma wiram mmoa nyinaa nsuo nom; ɔma afunumu nsuo de kum wɔn sukɔm.
12 By them the birds of the heavens have their habitation. They sing among the branches.
Ewiem nnomaa nwene wɔn pirebuo wɔ nsuo no ho; na wɔto nnwom wɔ nnua no mman so.
13 He waters the mountains from his chambers. The earth is filled with the fruit of thy works.
Ɔfiri ne soro mpia mu tɔ nsuo gugu mmepɔ so; Awurade nnwuma so aba mee asase.
14 He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herbage for the service of man, that he may bring forth food out of the earth,
Ɔma ɛserɛ fifiri ma anantwie, na ɔbɔɔ nnua maa onipa sɛ ɔnnua na ɛmma aduane mfiri asase mu:
15 and wine that makes glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man's heart.
na onipa anya nsã ama nʼakoma atɔ ne yam, na onipa anya ngo ama nʼanim atɔ so, na aduane nso akura onipa akoma.
16 The trees of Jehovah are full, the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted,
Wɔgugu Awurade nnua no so yie, Lebanon ntweneduro a ɔduaeɛ no.
17 where the birds make their nests. As for the stork, the fir trees are her house.
Ɛso na nnomaa yɛ wɔn mpirebuo na asukɔnkɔn nso yɛ nʼatenaeɛ wɔ pepeaa nnua no mu.
18 The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the conies.
Mmepɔ atentene no yɛ wiram mpɔnkye dea; na abotan yɛ dwanekɔbea ma amoakua.
19 He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows his going down.
Ɔsrane kyerɛ ɛberɛ nkyekyɛmu, na owia nim ɛberɛ a ɔkɔtɔ.
20 Thou make darkness, and it is night, during which all the beasts of the forest creep forth.
Wode esum ba ma ɛyɛ adesaeɛ na kwaeɛ mu mmoa nyinaa kɔ ahayɔ.
21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.
Gyata bobom pɛ wɔn ahaboa wɔhwehwɛ wɔn aduane firi Onyankopɔn hɔ.
22 The sun arises; they get away, and lie down in their dens.
Owia pue ma wɔsane wɔn akyi; wɔsane kɔdeda wɔn atuo mu.
23 Man goes forth to his work and to his labor until the evening.
Afei, onipa kɔ nʼadwuma so kɔyɛ adwuma ara kɔsi anwummerɛ.
24 O Jehovah, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom have thou made them all. The earth is full of thy riches.
Ao Awurade, wo nnwuma dɔɔso! Nyansa mu na woyɛɛ ne nyinaa; wʼabɔdeɛ ahyɛ asase so ma.
25 Yonder is the sea, great and wide, in which are innumerable creeping things, both small and great beasts.
Ɛpo na ɛda hɔ tɛtrɛɛ hahanaa yi, a abɔdeɛ bebree a ɛnni ano, akɛseɛ ne nketewa ahyɛ no ma.
26 There go the ships. There is leviathan, whom thou have formed to play in it.
Ɛso na ahyɛn di akɔneaba, na dɛnkyɛmmirampɔn a woyɛɛ no di agorɔ.
27 These all wait for thee, that thou may give them their food in due season.
Wɔn nyinaa hwɛ wo kwan sɛ wobɛma wɔn wɔn aduane wɔ ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ mu.
28 Thou give to them, they gather. Thou open thy hand, they are satisfied with good.
Wodema wɔn a, wɔtase; wobue wo nsam a, nnepa mee wɔn.
29 Thou hide thy face, they are troubled. Thou take away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.
Wode wʼanim hinta wɔn a, wɔbɔ hu; sɛ wogye wɔn ahomeɛ a, wɔwuwu na wɔsane kɔ mfuturo mu.
30 Thou send forth thy Spirit, they are created, and thou renew the face of the ground.
Sɛ wode wo Honhom no ma wɔn a na wɔabɔ wɔn, na woyɛ asase ani foforɔ.
31 Let the glory of Jehovah endure forever. Let Jehovah rejoice in his works,
Ma Awurade animuonyam ntena hɔ daa; ma Awurade ani nnye ne nnwuma ho,
32 who looks on the earth, and it trembles. He touches the mountains, and they smoke.
deɛ ɔhwɛ asase na ɛwosoɔ, na ɔde ne nsa ka mmepɔ a wisie firi mu ba.
33 I will sing to Jehovah as long as I live. I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
Mɛto dwom ama Awurade me nkwa nna nyinaa; sɛ mete ase yi, mɛto ayɛyie dwom ama me Onyankopɔn.
34 Let thy meditation be sweet to him. I will rejoice in Jehovah.
Ɔmma mʼakoma mu mpaeɛbɔ nsɔ nʼani ɛberɛ a meregye mʼani wɔ Awurade mu yi.
35 Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Praise ye Jehovah.
Ma nnebɔneyɛfoɔ nyera wɔ asase so; na amumuyɛfoɔ ase nhye. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade. Kamfo Awurade.
