Psalms 146

1 Praise all of you the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

Monkamfo Awurade. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade!

2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any 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 goes forth, he returns to his earth; 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 that has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

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

6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keeps truth for ever:

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

7 Which executes judgment for the oppressed: which gives food to the hungry. The LORD looses the prisoners:

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 raises them that are bowed down: the LORD loves the righteous:

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

9 The LORD perserves the strangers; he relieves the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

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

10 The LORD shall reign for ever, even your God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise all of you the LORD.

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