< Psalms 106 >

1 Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
Monkamfo Awurade! Monna Awurade ase na ɔyɛ; na nʼadɔeɛ wɔ hɔ daa.
2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? [who] can shew forth all his praise?
Hwan na ɔbɛtumi aka nneɛma akɛseɛ a Awurade ayɛ? Anaasɛ ɔbɛtumi aka ne nkamfo awie?
3 Blessed [are] they that keep judgment, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.
Nhyira nka wɔn a wɔkɔ so bu atɛntenenee, na daa wɔyɛ deɛ ɛyɛ.
4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favour [that thou bearest unto] thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;
Ao Awurade, sɛ wohunu wo nkurɔfoɔ mmɔbɔ a kae me. Sɛ wogye wɔn nkwa a, boa me,
5 That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
na manya wɔn a wapa wɔn no yiedie mu kyɛfa, na manya wo manfoɔ anigyeɛ no mu kyɛfa na me ne wʼagyapadeɛ no abɔ mu de nkamfo ama wo.
6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
Yɛayɛ bɔne sɛdeɛ yɛn nananom yɛeɛ no; yɛayɛ mfomsoɔ na yɛadi atirimuɔdensɛm.
7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked [him] at the sea, [even] at the Red sea.
Ɛberɛ a yɛn nananom wɔ Misraim no, wɔannwene wo nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ho; wɔankae wʼadɔeɛ bebrebe no, na wɔtee atua wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ho.
8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.
Nanso, ne din enti ɔgyee wɔn nkwa, sɛdeɛ ɔbɛda ne tumi kɛseɛ no adi.
9 He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
Ɔteaa Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ma ɛwee; ɔde wɔn faa abunu mu te sɛ ɛserɛ so.
10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated [them], and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
Ɔgyee wɔn firii ɔtamfoɔ no nsam; deɛ ɔtane wɔn nsam na ɔyii wɔn firiiɛ.
11 And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.
Nsuo kataa wɔn atamfoɔ so; na ɔbaako mpo annya nkwa.
12 Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
Afei wɔgyee ne bɔhyɛ no diiɛ na wɔtoo nʼayɛyie dwom.
13 They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:
Nanso, ntɛm so, wɔn werɛ firii deɛ wayɛ na wɔantwɛn nʼagyinatuo.
14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
Akɔnnɔ bɛhyɛɛ wɔn mu wɔ ɛserɛ so hɔ, na wɔ asase paradada no so, wɔsɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛeɛ,
15 And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.
enti ɔmaa wɔn deɛ wɔbisaeɛ, nanso, ɔde ɔfɔn yadeɛ baa wɔn so.
16 They envied Moses also in the camp, [and] Aaron the saint of the LORD.
Na nsraban mu hɔ wɔn ani beree Mose ne Aaron a Awurade ate ne ho no.
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
Asase mu buee na ɛmenee Datan na ɛsiee Abiram asafo no.
18 And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.
Egya tɔɔ wɔn akyidifoɔ no mu; ogyaframa hyee amumuyɛfoɔ no.
19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.
Wɔyɛɛ nantwie ba wɔ Horeb na wɔkotoo ohoni a wɔde fagudeɛ ayɛ.
20 Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.
Wɔsesaa wɔn Animuonyam. Wɔde nantwinini, a ɔwe ɛserɛ nsɛsodeɛ.
21 They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;
Wɔn werɛ firii Onyankopɔn a ɔgyee wɔn nkwa, deɛ ɔyɛɛ nneɛma akɛseɛ wɔ Misraim no,
22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, [and] terrible things by the Red sea.
nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɔyɛɛ wɔ Ham asase so ne nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ ho no.
23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy [them].
Enti ɔkaa sɛ ɔbɛsɛe wɔn, nanso Mose a ɔyɛ deɛ wapa noɔ no sɔre gyinaa Onyankopɔn ne nnipa no ntam; ɔsrɛɛ no, dwodwoo nʼabufuo no ano sɛdeɛ ɔrensɛe wɔn.
24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:
Afei, wɔn ani ansɔ asase fɛfɛ no; na wɔannye ne bɔhyɛ anni.
25 But murmured in their tents, [and] hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD.
Wɔnwiinwii wɔ wɔn ntomadan mu na wɔannyɛ ɔsetie amma Awurade.
26 Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:
Enti ɔmaa ne nsa so kaa ntam kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ ɔbɛma wɔn atotɔ wɔ ɛserɛ no so,
27 To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.
ɔbɛma wɔn asefoɔ atotɔ wɔ amanaman mu na wabɔ wɔn ahwete nsase nyinaa so.
28 They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
Wɔde wɔn ho bɔɔ Baal-peor ho na wɔdii afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔde ama anyame a wɔnni nkwa;
29 Thus they provoked [him] to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.
wɔde wɔn atirimuɔdensɛm hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo na ɔyaredɔm sii wɔn mu.
30 Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and [so] the plague was stayed.
Na Pinehas sɔre dii agyinamu, na Awurade sii ɔyaredɔm no ano.
31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.
Wɔde yei yɛɛ tenenee maa Pinehas wɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a ɛnni awieeɛ a ɛbɛba no mu.
32 They angered [him] also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:
Meriba nsuo ho nso, wɔhyɛɛ Awurade abufuo, na wɔn enti, ɔhaw baa Mose so,
33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.
ɛfiri sɛ wɔtee Onyankopɔn Honhom anim atua, na asɛm a wannwene ho firii Mose anomu.
34 They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them:
Wɔansɛe nnipa no sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no,
35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
nanso wɔde wɔn ho frafraa amanaman no yɛɛ nneɛma a wɔyɛ no bi.
36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.
Wɔsomm wɔn ahoni na ɛbɛyɛɛ afidie maa wɔn.
37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,
Wɔde wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa abosom.
38 And shed innocent blood, [even] the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.
Wɔkaa mogya a ɛdi bem guiɛ; wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa mogya a wɔde bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Kanaan ahoni no maa asase no ho guu fi.
39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
Wɔde deɛ wɔyɛeɛ no guu wɔn ankasa ho fi; wɔnam deɛ wɔyɛeɛ no so bɔɔ adwaman.
40 Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
Enti, Awurade bo fuu ne nkurɔfoɔ; na ɔkyirii nʼagyapadeɛ.
41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.
Ɔdanee wɔn maa amanaman no, na wɔn atamfoɔ dii wɔn so.
42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
Wɔn atamfoɔ hyɛɛ wɔn so na wɔkaa wɔn hyɛɛ wɔn tumi ase.
43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked [him] with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
Mpɛn bebree, Awurade gyee wɔn, nanso wɔkɔɔ so tee atua na wɔsɛe wɔ wɔn bɔne mu.
44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:
Nanso ɔhunuu wɔn ahohiahia ɛberɛ a wɔsu frɛɛ noɔ no;
45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
Wɔn enti, ɔkaee nʼapam no na ɔfirii nʼadɔeɛ kɛseɛ no mu hunuu wɔn mmɔbɔ.
46 He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.
Ɔmaa sodifoɔ a wɔafa wɔn nnommum no nyaa ahummɔborɔ maa wɔn.
47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto thy holy name, [and] to triumph in thy praise.
Gye yɛn, Ao Awurade yɛn nkwagyeɛ Onyankopɔn, na boaboa yɛn ano firi amanaman so, na yɛada wo din kronkron no ase, na yɛde nkamfo ahyɛ wo animuonyam.
48 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.
Ayɛyie nka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ɛmfiri mmerɛsanten nkɔsi nnasanten. Momma nnipa no nyinaa nka sɛ, “Amen!” Monkamfo Awurade.
