Psalms 66
1 “To the chief musician, a song or psalm.” Shout joyfully unto God, all ye lands:
Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Dawid dwom. Asase nyinaa momfa ahosɛpɛw nteɛ mu mma Onyankopɔn!
2 Sing forth the glory of his name; make glorious his praise.
Monto ne din anuonyamhyɛ ho dwom; momma nʼayeyi nyɛ anuonyamhyɛ!
3 Say unto God, How fear-inspiring is every one of thy works! through the greatness of thy strength will thy enemies yield feigned obedience unto thee.
Munse Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Wo nneyɛe yɛ nwonwa dodo! Wo tumi so mmoroso a wʼatamfo nyinaa de osuro kotow wʼanim.
4 All the lands shall bow themselves down unto thee, and shall sing praises unto thee; they shall sing praises to thy name. (Selah)
Asase nyinaa kotow wo; wɔto ayeyi dwom ma wo, wɔto dwom kamfo wo din.”
5 Come and see the deeds of God: fear-inspiring is his doing toward the children of men.
Mommra mmɛhwɛ nea Onyankopɔn ayɛ; anwonwade a wayɛ wɔ nnipa mu.
6 He changed the sea into dry land: through the river they went on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
Ɔmaa po yɛɛ asase kesee; wɔnantew twaa nsu no mommra mma yenni ahurusi wɔ no mu.
7 He ruleth by his might for ever; his eyes look upon the nations: the rebellious—these shall not be exalted. (Selah)
Ɔde ne tumi di hene daa daa, na ɔde nʼani nso hwɛ aman so. Mma atuatewfo nsɔre ntia no.
8 Bless, O ye people, our God, and cause the voice of his praise to be heard:
Aman nyinaa, munhyira yɛn Nyankopɔn, momma wɔnte mo nkamfo no nnyigyei;
9 Who hath appointed our soul to life, and hath not suffered our foot to slip.
wahwɛ yɛn nkwa so na wamma yɛn anan anwatiri.
10 For thou hast proved us, O God: thou hast refined us, as silver is refined.
Na wo, Onyankopɔn, wosɔɔ yɛn hwɛe; na wonan yɛn sɛ dwetɛ.
11 Thou hast brought us into the net; thou hast placed fetters upon our loins.
Wode yɛn koguu afiase na wode nneɛma a ɛyɛ duru too yɛn akyi.
12 Thou hast caused men to ride on our head: we entered into fire and into water; but thou broughtest us out to [the enjoyment] of overflowing plenty. a
Womaa yɛn atamfo twiw faa yɛn so; yɛfaa ogya ne nsu mu, nanso wode yɛn baa faako a nnepa abu so.
13 I will enter thy house with burnt-offerings: I will pay unto thee my vows,
Mede ɔhyew afɔre bɛba wʼasɔredan mu na madi bɔ a mahyɛ wo no so,
14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in distress.
bɔ a mʼanofafa hyɛe, na mʼano kaa bere a na mewɔ ɔhaw mu no.
15 Burnt-offerings of fatlings will I offer up unto thee, with the incense of rams; I will prepare steers with he-goats. (Selah)
Mede mmoa a wɔadɔ srade bɛbɔ afɔre ama wo; adwennini ayɛyɛde; mede anantwinini ne mpapo bɛbɔ afɔre.
16 Come, hear, and I will relate, all ye that fear God, what he hath done for my soul.
Mommra mmetie, mo a musuro Onyankopɔn nyinaa; momma menka nea wayɛ ama me nkyerɛ mo.
17 Unto him I cried with my mouth, and a song of extolling was on my tongue.
Mede mʼano su frɛɛ no; na me tɛkrɛma yii no ayɛ.
18 If I had looked on wickedness with my heart, the Lord would not have heard;
Sɛ mede bɔne hyɛɛ me koma mu a, anka Awurade antie me.
19 But verily God hath heard; he hath listened to the voice of my prayer.
Nanso nokware, Onyankopɔn atie me, wate me mpaebɔ.
20 Blessed be God, who hath not removed my prayer [from him], nor his kindness from me.
Nhyira nka Onyankopɔn, a wampo me mpaebɔ na wanyi nʼadɔe amfi me so.
