< Psalms 146 >

1 Hallelujah. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
Monkamfo Awurade. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade!
2 I will praise the LORD while I live; I will sing praises unto 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, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
Mommfa mo ho nto mmapɔmma so, adasamma a wɔrentumi nnye nkwa.
4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his dust; in that very day his thoughts perish.
Sɛ wɔn honhom tu kɔ a, wɔsane kɔ dɔteɛ mu, saa da no ara wɔn nsusuiɛ nyinaa yɛ kwa.
5 Happy 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 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is; who keepeth truth for ever;
Ɔno ne ɔsoro ne asase Yɛfoɔ, ɛpo ne biribiara a ɛwɔ mu nyinaa Awurade a ɔyɛ nokwafoɔ daa no.
7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed; who giveth bread to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners;
Ɔdi ma wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so, na ɔma wɔn a ɛkɔm de wɔn aduane. Awurade gyaa nneduafoɔ,
8 The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind; the LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down; the LORD loveth the righteous;
Awurade ma anifirafoɔ hunu adeɛ. Awurade pagya wɔn a wɔakom. Awurade dɔ teneneefoɔ.
9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; He upholdeth the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked He maketh crooked.
Awurade hwɛ ahɔhoɔ so na ɔwowa nwisiaa ne akunafoɔ, na amumuyɛfoɔ akwan deɛ, ɔdane ani.
10 The LORD will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelujah.
Sion, Awurade wo Onyankopɔn di ɔhene daa daa, wɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nyinaa so. Monkamfo Awurade.
