1 Chronicles 16
1 So they brought in the Arke of God, and set it in the middes of the Tabernacle that Dauid had pitched for it, and they offred burnt offrings and peace offrings before God.
Na wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kosii ntamadan sononko bi a Dawid asiesie mu, na wɔbɔɔ ɔhyew afɔre ne asomdwoe afɔre wɔ Onyankopɔn anim.
2 And when Dauid had made an ende of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, hee blessed the people in the Name of the Lord.
Dawid wiee no, ohyiraa nkurɔfo no wɔ Awurade din mu.
3 And he dealt to euery one of Israel both man and woman, to euery one a cake of breade, and a piece of flesh, and a bottel of wine.
Na ɔkyɛɛ Israelfo mmea ne mmarima nyinaa aduan. Obiara nyaa brodo mua, namkum ne bobe aba ɔfam.
4 And he appointed certaine of the Leuites to minister before the Arke of the Lord, and to rehearse and to thanke and prayse the Lord God of Israel:
Dawid yii saa Lewifo yi sɛ wonni nnipa no anim wɔ ɔsom mu, wɔ Awurade Apam Adaka no anim, na wɔmfa so nsrɛ ne nhyira, na wɔnna Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn ase na wɔnkamfo no.
5 Asaph the chiefe, and next to him Zechariah, Ieiel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed Edom, euen Ieiel with instruments, violes and harpes, and Asaph to make a sound with cymbales,
Asaf a na ɔda kuw yi ano no bɔɔ kyɛnkyɛn no. Na nʼabediakyirifo yɛ Sakaria a ɔto so abien, afei Yeiel, Semiramot, Yehiel, Matitia, Eliab, Benaia, Obed-Edom ne Yahasiel. Wɔn na wɔbɔɔ mmɛnta ne asankuten.
6 And Benaiah and Iahaziel Priestes, with trumpets continually before the Arke of the couenant of God.
Na Asɔfo Benaia ne Yahasiel taa bɔ ntorobɛnto wɔ Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no anim.
7 Then at that time Dauid did appoint at the beginning to giue thankes to the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
Saa da no, Dawid de saa aseda dwom a ɔde ma Awurade yi maa Asaf ne ne mfɛfo Lewifo:
8 Praise the Lord and call vpon his Name: declare his workes among the people.
Da Awurade ase na da ne kɛseyɛ adi. Ma wiase nyinaa nhu nea wayɛ.
9 Sing vnto him, sing praise vnto him, and talke of all his wonderfull workes.
Monto dwom mma no, monto ayeyi dwom mma no; monka nʼanwonwade no nyinaa.
10 Reioyce in his holy Name: let the hearts of them that seeke the Lord reioyce.
Monhoahoa mo ho wɔ ne din kronkron mu; momma wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ Awurade no nnya koma mu anigye.
11 Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.
Momma mo ani nna Awurade ne nʼahoɔden so; na monhwehwɛ nʼanim bere biara.
12 Remember his marueilous workes that he hath done, his wonders, and the iudgements of his mouth,
Monkae anwonwade a wayɛ, ne nsɛnkyerɛnne ne atɛn a obui.
13 O seede of Israel his seruant, O the children of Iaakob his chosen.
Mo Israelmma, Onyankopɔn somfo, Yakob mma a wapaw wɔn.
14 He is the Lord our God: his iudgements are throughout all the earth.
Ɔyɛ Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn; nʼahenni da adi wɔ asase so nyinaa.
15 Remember his couenant for euer, and the worde, which hee commanded to a thousand generations:
Ɔkae nʼapam daa nyinaa, asɛm a ɔhyɛ maa awo ntoantoaso apem no.
16 Which he made with Abraham, and his othe to Izhak:
Eyi ne apam a ɔne Abraham yɛe ne ntam a ɔka kyerɛɛ Isak.
17 And hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a Law, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,
Ɔhyɛɛ mu den maa Yakob sɛ mmara, de maa Israel sɛ apam a ɛbɛtena hɔ afebɔɔ;
18 Saying, To thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.
“Mede Kanaan asase no bɛma wo sɛ kyɛfa a ɛbɛyɛ wʼagyapade.”
19 When ye were fewe in number, yea, a very fewe, and strangers therein,
Ɔkaa eyi bere a na wɔnnɔɔso, ahɔhokuw ketewa bi a wɔwɔ Kanaan.
20 And walked about from nation to nation, and from one kingdome to another people,
Wofii aman so kɔɔ aman so, fii ahemman mu kɔɔ ahemman mu.
21 He suffered no man to do them wrong, but rebuked Kings for their sakes, saying,
Nanso wamma obi anhyɛ wɔn so; wɔn nti, ɔkaa ahene anim se;
22 Touch not mine anoynted, and doe my Prophets no harme.
“Mommfa mo nsa nka wɔn a masra wɔn ngo, na monnyɛ mʼadiyifo bɔne bi.”
23 Sing vnto the Lord all the earth: declare his saluation from day to day.
Momma asase nyinaa nto dwom mma Awurade! Da biara, mompae mu nka asɛmpa no sɛ ogye nkwa.
24 Declare his glory among the nations, and his wonderful workes among all people.
Mommɔ nʼanuonyam nneyɛe ho dawuru wɔ amanaman mu. Monka anwonwade a ɔyɛ nkyerɛ obiara.
25 For the Lord is great and much to be praised, and hee is to bee feared aboue all gods.
Awurade yɛ ɔkɛse! Na nkamfo fata no! Ɛsɛ sɛ wosuro no sen anyame nyinaa.
26 For all the gods of the people are idoles, but the Lord made the heauens.
Aman so anyame nyinaa yɛ ahoni bi kwa, nanso Awurade na ɔbɔɔ ɔsoro!
27 Prayse and glory are before him: power and beautie are in his place.
Anuonyam ne tumi atwa ne ho ahyia, ahoɔden ne ahoɔfɛ wɔ nʼatenae.
28 Giue vnto the Lord, ye families of the people: giue vnto the Lord glory and power.
Momfa mma Awurade, Amanaman mmusuakuw, momfa anuonyam ne tumi mma Awurade.
29 Giue vnto the Lord ye glory of his Name: bring an offring and come before him, and worship the Lord in the glorious Sanctuarie.
Momfa anuonyam a ɛfata mma Awurade! Momfa mo afɔrebɔde mmra mmɛsom no. Monsɔre Awurade wɔ ne hyerɛn kronkron nyinaa mu.
30 Tremble ye before him, al the earth: surely the world shalbe stable and not moue.
Momma asase nyinaa mpopo wɔ nʼanim. Wɔatim wiase dennen a entumi nhinhim.
31 Let the heauens reioyce, and let the earth be glad, and let them say among the nations, The Lord reigneth.
Momma ɔsoro ani nnye na asase nsɛpɛw ne ho! Momma aman nyinaa nte sɛ, Awurade yɛ ɔhene.
32 Let the sea roare, and all that therein is: Let the field be ioyfull and all that is in it.
Momma ɛpo ne nea ɛwɔ mu nyinaa nteɛ mu nkamfo no. Momma mfuw ne wɔn nnɔbae mfa ahosɛpɛw mpue.
33 Let the trees of the wood then reioyce at the presence of the Lord: for he commeth to iudge the earth.
Momma kwae nnua nnyigyei nyɛ ayeyi Awurade anim! Efisɛ ɔrebebu asase atɛn.
34 Prayse the Lord, for hee is good, for his mercie endureth for euer.
Monna Awurade ase, efisɛ oye na nʼadɔe wɔ hɔ daa.
35 And say ye, Saue vs, O God, our saluation, and gather vs, and deliuer vs from the heathen, that we may prayse thine holy Name, and glorie in thy praise.
Monteɛteɛ mu se, “Gye yɛn, Ao yɛn nkwagye Onyankopɔn! Boa yɛn ano, na gye yɛn fi amanaman nsam, na yɛatumi ada wo din kronkron ase, na yɛadi ahurusi akamfo wo.”
36 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for euer and euer: and let all people say, So be it, and praise the Lord.
Ayeyi nka Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, emfi mmeresanten nkosi nnasanten. Na nnipa no nyinaa gyee so se, “Amen!” Na wɔkamfoo Awurade.
37 Then he left there before the Arke of the Lordes couenant Asaph and his brethren to minister continually before the Arke, that which was to be done euery day:
Dawid hyehyɛ maa Asaf ne ne mfɛfo Lewifo no sɛ wɔnsom daa wɔ Awurade Apam Adaka no anim, na wɔnyɛ nea ehia sɛ wɔyɛ no da biara.
38 And Obed Edom and his brethren, three score and eight: and Obed Edom the sonne of Ieduthun, and Hosah were porters.
Saa kuw yi mu nnipa ne Obed-Edom (a ɔyɛ Yedutun babarima no), Hosa ne Lewifo aduosia awotwe a wɔyɛ apon ano hwɛfo.
39 And Zadok the Priest and his brethren the Priestes were before the Tabernacle of ye Lord, in the hie place that was at Gibeon,
Dawid de ɔsɔfo Sadok ne ne mfɛfo asɔfo tenaa Awurade Ahyiae Ntamadan a ɛwɔ bepɔw Gibeon no, sɛ wɔnsom wɔ Awurade anim wɔ hɔ.
40 To offer burnt offrings vnto the Lord, vpon the burnt offring altar continually, in the morning and in the euening, euen according vnto all that is written in the law of the Lord, which hee commanded Israel.
Anɔpa ne anwummere biara, wɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre wɔ afɔremuka a wɔayi asi hɔ ama saa dwumadi no so. Na wodii biribiara a wɔakyerɛw sɛ Awurade mmara a ɔde ama Israel no so.
41 And with them were Heman, and Ieduthun, and the rest that were chosen (which were appointed by names) to praise the Lord, because his mercie endureth for euer.
Dawid san yii Heman, Yedutun ne afoforo bi a wɔbobɔɔ wɔn din, yiyii wɔn no sɛ wɔnna Awurade ase “Na nʼadɔe no tim hɔ daa.”
42 Euen with them were Heman and Ioduthun, to make a sound with the cornets and with the cymbales, with excellent instruments of musicke: and the sonnes of Ieduthun were at the gate.
Heman ne Yedutun bɔɔ wɔn ntorobɛnto, kyɛnkyɛn ne nnwontode ahorow de gyigyee ayeyi nnwom a wɔto maa Onyankopɔn no ho. Na woyii Yedutun mmabarima ma wɔyɛɛ apon ano hwɛfo.
43 And all the people departed, euerie man to his house: and Dauid returned to blesse his house.
Na nnipa no nyinaa san kɔɔ wɔn afi mu. Dawid nso san kɔɔ ne fi, kohyiraa ne fifo.
