Psalms 146

1 Hallelujah! Praise the LORD, O my soul.

Monkamfo Awurade. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade!

2 I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

Mɛkamfo Awurade me nkwa nna nyinaa; mɛto ayɛyi dwom ama me Onyankopɔn, sɛ mete ase yi.

3 Put not your trust in princes, in mortal man, who cannot save.

Mommfa mo ho nto mmapɔmma so, adasamma a wɔrentumi nnye nkwa.

4 When his spirit departs, he returns to the ground; on that very day his plans perish.

Sɛ wɔn honhom tu kɔ a, wɔsane kɔ dɔteɛ mu, saa da no ara wɔn nsusuiɛ nyinaa yɛ kwa.

5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,

Nhyira ne deɛ ne ɔboafoɔ ne Yakob Onyankopɔn, deɛ nʼanidasoɔ wɔ Awurade, ne Onyankopɔn mu.

6 the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He remains faithful forever.

Ɔno ne ɔsoro ne asase Yɛfoɔ, ɛpo ne biribiara a ɛwɔ mu nyinaa Awurade a ɔyɛ nokwafoɔ daa no.

7 He executes justice for the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free,

Ɔdi ma wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so, na ɔma wɔn a ɛkɔm de wɔn aduane. Awurade gyaa nneduafoɔ,

8 the LORD opens the eyes of the blind, the LORD lifts those who are weighed down, the LORD loves the righteous.

Awurade ma anifirafoɔ hunu adeɛ. Awurade pagya wɔn a wɔakom. Awurade dɔ teneneefoɔ.

9 The LORD protects foreigners; He sustains the fatherless and the widow, but the ways of the wicked He frustrates.

Awurade hwɛ ahɔhoɔ so na ɔwowa nwisiaa ne akunafoɔ, na amumuyɛfoɔ akwan deɛ, ɔdane ani.

10 The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Hallelujah!

Sion, Awurade wo Onyankopɔn di ɔhene daa daa, wɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nyinaa so. Monkamfo Awurade.
