Psalms 135

1 Alleluia. Praise you the name of the Lord; praise the Lord, [you his] servants,

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

2 who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God.

mo a mosom wɔ Awurade fie, wɔ adihɔ a ɛwɔ yɛn Onyankopɔn fie.

3 Praise you the Lord; for the Lord is good: sing praises to his name; for [it is] good.

Monkamfo Awurade ɛfiri sɛ ɔyɛ; monto ayɛyie dwom mma ne din, na ɛno na ɛyɛ anisɔ.

4 For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself, [and] Israel for his peculiar treasure.

Awurade ayi Yakob sɛ ɔnyɛ ne deɛ, wayi Israel sɛ nʼadeɛ a ɛsom bo.

5 For I know that the Lord is great, and our Lord is above all gods;

Menim sɛ Awurade so; Ɔso sene anyame nyinaa.

6 all that the Lord willed, he did in heaven, and on the earth, in the sea, and in all deeps.

Awurade yɛ deɛ ɔpɛ biara, wɔ ɔsoro ne asase so, ɛpo ne emu abunu nyinaa.

7 Who brings up clouds from the extremity of the earth: he has made lightnings for the rain: he brings winds out of his treasures.

Ɔma omununkum ma ne ho so firi asase ano ba; ɔsoma anyinam ka osutɔ ho na ɔma ahum tu firi nʼakoradan mu.

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

Ɔkumm Misraim mmakan, nnipa ne mmoa mmakan.

9 He sent signs and wonders into the midst of you, O Egypt, on Pharao, and on all his servants.

Ɔsomaa ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ne nʼanwanwadeɛ baa mo mfimfini, Ao Misraim, de tiaa Farao ne nʼasomfoɔ nyinaa.

10 Who struck many nations, and killed mighty kings;

Ɔsɛee amanaman pii na ɔkunkumm ahemfo akɛseɛ,

11 Seon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Basan, and all the kingdoms of Chanaan:

Amorifoɔ ɔhene, Sihon Basan ɔhene, Og ne Kanaan ahemfo nyinaa,

12 and gave their land [for] an inheritance, an inheritance to Israel his people.

na ɔde wɔn nsase maa sɛ agyapadeɛ; ɔde maa ne nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ.

13 O Lord, your name [endures] for ever, and your memorial to all generations.

Ao Awurade, wo din wɔ hɔ daa. Ao Awurade wo din ahyeta awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nyinaa mu.

14 For the Lord shall judge his people, and comfort himself concerning his servants.

Awurade bɛdi ama ne nkurɔfoɔ na ɔbɛhunu nʼasomfoɔ mmɔbɔ.

15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the works of men's hands.

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

16 They have a mouth, but they can’t speak; they have eyes, but they can’t see;

Wɔwɔ ano, nanso wɔntumi nkasa, wɔwɔ ani, nanso wɔnhunu adeɛ;

17 they have ears, but they can’t hear; for there is no breath in their mouth.

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

18 Let those who make them be made like to them; and all those who trust 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 O house of Israel, bless you the Lord: O house of Aaron, bless you the Lord:

Monkamfo Awurade, Ao Israel fiefoɔ; monkamfo Awurade, Ao Aaron fiefoɔ;

20 O house of Levi, bless you the Lord: you that fear the Lord, bless the Lord.

monkamfo Awurade, Ao Lewi fiefoɔ; monkamfo Awurade, mo a mosuro no.

21 Blessed in Sion be the Lord, who dwells in Jerusalem.

Momfiri Sion nkamfo Awurade, monkamfo deɛ ɔte Yerusalem no. Monkamfo Awurade.
