< Psalms 115 >
1 Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, But unto thy name give glory, For thy lovingkindness, and for thy truth’s sake.
Ɛnyɛ yɛn, Ao Awurade, ɛnyɛ yɛn na wo din na animuonyam nka, wʼadɔeɛ ne wo nokorɛdie enti.
2 Wherefore should the nations say, Where is now their God?
Adɛn enti na aman no bisa sɛ, “Wɔn Onyankopɔn wɔ he?”
3 But our God is in the heavens: He hath done whatsoever he pleased.
Yɛn Onyankopɔn wɔ ɔsoro; deɛ ɔpɛ biara na ɔyɛ.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, The work of men’s hands.
Nanso wɔn ahoni yɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde onipa nsa na ayɛ.
5 They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not;
Wɔwɔ ano, nanso wɔntumi nkasa; wɔwɔ ani, nanso wɔnhunu adeɛ.
6 They have ears, but they hear not; Noses have they, but they smell not;
Wɔwɔ aso, nanso wɔnte asɛm; wɔwɔ hwene, nanso wɔnte hwa.
7 They have hands, but they handle not; Feet have they, but they walk not; Neither speak they through their throat.
Wɔwɔ nsa, nanso wɔnte nka; Wɔwɔ nan, nanso wɔnnante. Wɔntumi mma nnyegyeeɛ bi mfiri wɔn mene mu.
8 They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.
Wɔn a wɔyɛɛ ahoni no bɛyɛ sɛ wɔn ara, saa ara na wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho to wɔn so no bɛyɛ.
9 O Israel, trust thou in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.
Ao Israelfoɔ, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.
10 O house of Aaron, trust ye in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.
Ao Aaron fie, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.
11 Ye that fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.
Mo a mosuro no, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.
12 Jehovah hath been mindful of us; he will bless [us]: He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.
Awurade kae yɛn na ɔbɛhyira yɛn: Ɔbɛhyira Israel fie, ɔbɛhyira Aaron fie
13 He will bless them that fear Jehovah, Both small and great.
Ɔbɛhyira wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, nkumaa ne akɛseɛ nyinaa.
14 Jehovah increase you more and more, You and your children.
Awurade mma wʼase nnɔre, wo ne wo mma.
15 Blessed are ye of Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth.
Awurade nhyira wo, ɔsoro ne asase Yɛfoɔ no.
16 The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah; But the earth hath he given to the children of men.
Ɔsorosoro yɛ Awurade dea, nanso asase deɛ, ɔde ama onipa.
17 The dead praise not Jehovah, Neither any that go down into silence;
Ɛnyɛ awufoɔ na wɔkamfo Awurade, wɔn a wɔkɔ fam dinn no rentumi nkamfo Awurade.
18 But we will bless Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah.
Yɛn na yɛma Awurade so ɛnnɛ ne daa nyinaa. Monkamfo Awurade.
