Psalms 115

1 Not vnto vs, O Lord, not vnto vs, but vnto thy Name giue the glorie, for thy louing mercie and for thy truethes sake.

Ɛnyɛ yɛn, Ao Awurade, ɛnyɛ yɛn na wo din na animuonyam nka, wʼadɔeɛ ne wo nokorɛdie enti.

2 Wherefore shall the heathen say, Where is nowe their God?

Adɛn enti na aman no bisa sɛ, “Wɔn Onyankopɔn wɔ he?”

3 But our God is in heauen: he doeth what so euer he will.

Yɛn Onyankopɔn wɔ ɔsoro; deɛ ɔpɛ biara na ɔyɛ.

4 Their idoles are siluer and golde, euen the worke of mens hands.

Nanso wɔn ahoni yɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde onipa nsa na ayɛ.

5 They haue a mouth and speake not: they haue eyes and see not.

Wɔwɔ ano, nanso wɔntumi nkasa; wɔwɔ ani, nanso wɔnhunu adeɛ.

6 They haue eares and heare not: they haue noses and smelll not.

Wɔwɔ aso, nanso wɔnte asɛm; wɔwɔ hwene, nanso wɔnte hwa.

7 They haue handes and touche not: they haue feete and walke not: neither make they a sound with their throte.

Wɔwɔ nsa, nanso wɔnte nka; Wɔwɔ nan, nanso wɔnnante. Wɔntumi mma nnyegyeeɛ bi mfiri wɔn mene mu.

8 They that make them are like vnto them: so are all that trust 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 the Lord: for he is their helpe and their shielde.

Ao Israelfoɔ, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.

10 O house of Aaron, trust ye in the Lord: for he is their helpe and their shielde.

Ao Aaron fie, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.

11 Ye that feare the Lord, trust in the Lord: for he is their helper and their shield.

Mo a mosuro no, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.

12 The Lord hath bene mindfull of vs: he will blesse, he will blesse the house of Israel, he will blesse the house of Aaron.

Awurade kae yɛn na ɔbɛhyira yɛn: Ɔbɛhyira Israel fie, ɔbɛhyira Aaron fie

13 He will blesse them that feare the Lord, both small and great.

Ɔbɛhyira wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, nkumaa ne akɛseɛ nyinaa.

14 The Lord will increase his graces towarde you, euen toward you and toward your children.

Awurade mma wʼase nnɔre, wo ne wo mma.

15 Ye are blessed of the Lord, which made the heauen and the earth.

Awurade nhyira wo, ɔsoro ne asase Yɛfoɔ no.

16 The heauens, euen the heauens are the Lordes: but he hath giuen the earth to the sonnes of men.

Ɔsorosoro yɛ Awurade dea, nanso asase deɛ, ɔde ama onipa.

17 The dead prayse not the Lord, neither any that goe downe into the place of silence.

Ɛnyɛ awufoɔ na wɔkamfo Awurade, wɔn a wɔkɔ fam dinn no rentumi nkamfo Awurade.

18 But we will prayse the Lord from henceforth and for euer. Prayse ye the Lord.

Yɛn na yɛma Awurade so ɛnnɛ ne daa nyinaa. Monkamfo Awurade.
