Psalms 105
1 Alleluia. Give thanks to the Lord, and call upon his name; declare his works among the heathen.
Ɛda Awurade ase na da ne kɛseyɛ adi. Ma ewiase nyinaa nhunu deɛ wayɛ.
2 Sing to him, yes, sing praises to him: tell forth all his wonderful works.
Monto dwom mma no, monto ayɛyie dwom mma no; monka nʼanwanwadeɛ no nyinaa.
3 Glory in his holy name: let the heart of them that seek the Lord rejoice.
Monhoahoa mo ho wɔ ne din kronkron mu; momma wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ Awurade no nnya akoma mu anigyeɛ.
4 Seek you the Lord, and be strengthened; seek his face continually.
Momma mo ani nna Awurade ne nʼahoɔden so; na monhwehwɛ nʼanim ɛberɛ biara.
5 Remember his wonderful works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
Monkae anwanwadeɛ a wayɛ ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ, ne atemmuo a ɔbuiɛ,
6 [you] seed of Abraam, his servants, [you] children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
Ao Abraham mma, Onyankopɔn ɔsomfoɔ, Ao Yakob mma a wapa wɔn.
7 He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
Ɔyɛ Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn. Nʼahennie da adi wɔ asase so nyinaa.
8 He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded for a thousand generation:
Ɔkae nʼapam daa nyinaa, asɛm a ɔhyɛ maa awoɔ ntoantoasoɔ apem no,
9 which he established as a covenant to Abraam, and [he remembered] his oath to Isaac.
apam a ɔne Abraham yɛeɛ no ntam a ɔka kyerɛɛ Isak no.
10 And he established it to Jacob for an ordinance, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant;
Ɔhyɛɛ mu den maa Yakob sɛ mmara, de maa Israel sɛ apam a ɛbɛtena hɔ afebɔɔ.
11 saying To you will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance:
Ɔkaa sɛ, “Mede Kanaan asase no bɛma wo sɛ kyɛfa a ɛbɛyɛ wʼagyapadeɛ.”
12 when they were few in number, very few, and sojourners in it.
Ɔkaa yei ɛberɛ a na wɔnnɔɔso, ahɔhokuo ketewa bi a wɔwɔ Kanaan.
13 And they went from nation to nation, and from [one] kingdom to another people.
Wɔfirii aman so kɔɔ aman so; firii ahemman mu kɔɔ ahemman mu.
14 He suffered no man to wrong them; and he rebuked kings for their sakes:
Wamma obi anhyɛ wɔn so; wɔn enti, ɔkaa ahene anim sɛ:
15 [saying], Touch not my anointed ones; and do my prophets no harm.
“Mommfa mo nsa nka wɔn a masra wɔn ngo; na monnyɛ mʼadiyifoɔ bɔne bi.”
16 Moreover he called for a famine upon the land; he broke the whole support of bread.
Ɔmaa ɛkɔm baa asase no so na ɔsɛee akwan a wɔfa so nya wɔn aduane nyinaa;
17 He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a slave.
na ɔsomaa ɔbarima bi dii wɔn anim, Yosef a wɔtɔn no sɛ akoa no.
18 They hurt his feet with fetters; his soul passed into iron,
Wɔde mpokyerɛ guu ne nan, na wɔde dadeɛ nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn hyɛɛ ne kɔn,
19 until the time that his cause came on; the word of the Lord tried him as fire.
kɔsii sɛ deɛ ɔhyɛɛ ho nkɔm no baa mu, kɔsii sɛ Awurade asɛm no daa no adi sɛ ɔyɛ nokwafoɔ.
20 The king sent and loosed him; [even] the prince of the people, and let him go free.
Afei, ɔhene no soma ma wɔkɔgyaa no; aman no sodifoɔ gyaa no.
21 He made him Lord over his house, and ruler of all his substance;
Ɔyɛɛ no ne fiefoɔ so wura, deɛ ɔwɔ nyinaa sodifoɔ,
22 to chastise his rulers at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
sɛ ɔnkyerɛ ne mmapɔmma deɛ ɔpɛ na ɔnkyerɛ ne mpanimfoɔ nyansa.
23 Israel also came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Cham.
Afei, Israel kɔɔ Misraim; Yakob kɔtenaa Ham asase so sɛ ɔnanani.
24 And he increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their enemies.
Awurade maa ne nkurɔfoɔ ase dɔreeɛ; ɔyɛɛ wɔn bebree dodo maa wɔn atamfoɔ,
25 And he turned their heart to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.
wɔn a ɔdanee wɔn akoma sɛ wɔntane ne nkurɔfoɔ na wɔmpam nʼasomfoɔ tiri so.
26 He sent fort Moses his servant, [and] Aaron whom he had chosen.
Ɔsomaa ne ɔsomfoɔ Mose, ne Aaron a na wayi noɔ no.
27 He established among them his signs, and [his] wonders in the land of Cham.
Wɔyɛɛ ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ nwanwasoɔ wɔ wɔn mu, nʼanwanwadeɛ wɔ Ham asase so.
28 He sent forth darkness, and made it dark; yet they rebelled against his words.
Ɔsomaa esum, na ɔmaa asase duruu sum ɛfiri sɛ na wɔate nʼasɛm no so atua.
29 He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
Ɔmaa wɔn nsuo nyinaa danee mogya, nam so kumm emu mpataa.
30 Their land produced frogs abundantly, in the chambers of their kings.
Mpɔtorɔ bɛhyɛɛ asase no so ma, na wɔhyɛnee ɔman no sodifoɔ mpia mu.
31 He spoke, and the dog-fly came, and lice in all their coasts.
Ɔkasaeɛ, na nwansena bebree ne ntontom baa ɔman no mu baabiara.
32 He turned their rain into hail, [and sent] flaming fire in their land.
Ɔmaa wɔn osutɔ danee ampariboɔ a anyinam nenam mu wɔ ɔman no nyinaa mu;
33 And he struck their vines and their fig trees; and broke every tree of their coast.
Ɔsɛee wɔn bobe ne borɔdɔma nnua na ɔbubuu ɔman no so nnua pasaa.
34 He spoke, and the locust came, and caterpillars innumerable,
Ɔkasaeɛ, na ntutummɛ baeɛ mmɛbɛ a wɔntumi nkan wɔn;
35 and devoured all the grass in their land, and devoured the fruit of the ground.
wɔwee nhahammono biara a ɛwɔ wɔn asase no so, na wɔdii wɔn mfuo so nnuane.
36 He struck also every firstborn of their land, the first fruits of all their labor.
Afei ɔkunkumm wɔn asase so mmakan nyinaa, wɔn mmarimayɛ mu aba a ɛdi ɛkan nyinaa.
37 And he brought them out with silver and gold; and there was not a feeble one among their tribes.
Ɔyii Israelfoɔ, a wɔso dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ, firii wɔn mmusuakuo mu a obiara ho antɔ kyima.
38 Egypt rejoiced at their departing; for the fear of them fell upon them.
Misraim ani gyeeɛ ɛberɛ a wɔkɔeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ na Israelfoɔ ho hu atɔ wɔn so.
39 He spread out a cloud for a covering to them, and fire to give them light by night.
Ɔtrɛɛ omununkum mu kataa wɔn so, na ɔde ogya maa wɔn, sɛ ɛnyɛ hann anadwo.
40 They asked, and the quail came, and he satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
Wɔbisaeɛ, na ɔbrɛɛ wɔn mmoko. Ɔmaa ɔsoro aduane mee wɔn.
41 He clave the rock, and the waters flowed, rivers ran in dry places.
Ɔbuee ɔbotan mu maa nsuo firii mu baeɛ; na ɛtenee wɔ ɛserɛ no so sɛ asubɔnten.
42 For he remembered his holy word, which [he promised] to Abraam his servant.
Ɔkaee ne bɔhyɛ kronkron bi a ɔhyɛɛ ne ɔsomfoɔ Abraham no.
43 And he brought out his people with exultation, and his chosen with joy;
Ɔyii ne nkurɔfoɔ maa wɔn ani gyeeɛ. Wɔn a wapa wɔn no dii ahurisie;
44 and gave them the lands of the heathen; and they inherited the labors of the people;
ɔde amanaman no nsase maa wɔn, na deɛ ebinom abrɛ anya no bɛyɛɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ
45 that they might keep his ordinances, and diligently seek his law.
na wɔahwɛ nʼahyɛdeɛ adi ne mmara so. Monyi Awurade ayɛ.
