Psalms 135

1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise [him], O ye servants of the LORD.

Monkamfo Awurade. Monkamfo Awurade din; monkamfo no, mo Awurade asomfo,

2 Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God,

mo a mosom wɔ Awurade fi, wɔ adiwo a ɛwɔ yɛn Nyankopɔn fi.

3 Praise the LORD; for the LORD [is] good: sing praises unto his name; for [it is] pleasant.

Monkamfo Awurade efisɛ oye; monto ayeyi nnwom mma ne din, na ɛno na ɛyɛ anisɔ.

4 For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, [and] Israel for his peculiar treasure.

Awurade ayi Yakob sɛ ɔnyɛ ne de, wayi Israel sɛ nʼade a ɛsom bo.

5 For I know that the LORD [is] great, and [that] our Lord [is] above all gods.

Minim sɛ Awurade so; Ɔso sen anyame nyinaa.

6 Whatsoever the LORD pleased, [that] did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.

Awurade yɛ nea ɔpɛ biara wɔ ɔsoro ne asase so, po ne mu bun nyinaa.

7 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.

Ɔma omununkum ma ne ho so fi asase ano ba; ɔsoma anyinam ka osu ho na ɔma ahum tu fi ne koradan mu.

8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

Okum Misraim mmakan, nnipa ne mmoa mmakan.

9 [Who] sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

Ɔsomaa ne nsɛnkyerɛnne ne nʼanwonwade baa mo mfimfini, Misraim, de tiaa Farao ne nʼasomfo nyinaa.

10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

Ɔsɛee amanaman pii, na okunkum ahemfo akɛse,

11 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:

Amorifo hene, Sihon Basan hene, Og ne Kanaan ahemfo nyinaa,

12 And gave their land [for] an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people.

na ɔde wɔn nsase maa sɛ agyapade ɔde maa ne nkurɔfo Israelfo.

13 Thy name, O LORD, [endureth] for ever; [and] thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.

Awurade, wo din wɔ hɔ daa. Awurade wo din ahyeta awo ntoatoaso nyinaa mu.

14 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.

Awurade bedi ama ne nkurɔfo na obehu nʼasomfo mmɔbɔ.

15 The idols of the heathen [are] silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

Amanaman no ahoni yɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde onipa nsa na ayɛ.

16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

Wɔwɔ ano, nanso wontumi nkasa, wɔwɔ ani, nanso wonhu ade;

17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there [any] breath in their mouths.

wɔwɔ aso, nanso wɔnte asɛm, na ɔhome nso nni wɔn anom.

18 They that make them are like unto them: [so is] every one that trusteth in them.

Wɔn a wɔyɛɛ ahoni no bɛyɛ sɛ wɔn ara, saa ara na wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho to wɔn so no bɛyɛ.

19 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

Monkamfo Awurade, mo Israelfo nyinaa; monkamfo Awurade, Aaron fi;

20 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.

monkamfo Awurade, Lewi fi; monkamfo Awurade, mo a musuro no.

21 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.

Mumfi Sion nkamfo Awurade, monkamfo nea ɔte Yerusalem no. Monkamfo Awurade.
