Psalms 146

1 Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.

Monkamfo Awurade. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade!

2 Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes:

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

3 In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.

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

4 His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.

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

5 Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

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

6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.

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

7 Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered:

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

8 The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just.

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

9 The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.

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

10 The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.

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