Psalms 103
1 BY DAVID. Bless, O my soul, YHWH, And all my inward parts—His Holy Name.
Dawid deɛ. Ao me kra, kamfo Awurade; na me mu adeɛ nyinaa nkamfo ne din kronkron no.
2 Bless, O my soul, YHWH, And do not forget all His benefits,
Ao me kra, kamfo Awurade, na mma wo werɛ mfiri ne nneyɛeɛ pa nyinaa,
3 Who is forgiving all your iniquities, Who is healing all your diseases,
ɔno na ɔde wo mfomsoɔ nyinaa kyɛ woɔ na ɔsa wo nyarewa nyinaa,
4 Who is redeeming your life from destruction, Who is crowning you [with] kindness and mercies,
ɔgye wo nkwa firi damena mu na ɔde adɔeɛ ne mmɔborɔhunu bɔ wo abotire,
5 Who is satisfying your desire with good, Your youth renews itself as an eagle.
ɔde nnepa ma wo sɛ wʼapɛdeɛ na wo mmeranteberɛ yɛ foforɔ sɛ ɔkɔdeɛ.
6 YHWH is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.
Awurade yɛ adetenenee na ɔbu wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so nyinaa atɛntenenee.
7 He makes His ways known to Moses, His acts to the sons of Israel.
Ɔkyerɛɛ Mose nʼakwan, na ɔmaa Israelfoɔ hunuu ne nneyɛɛ.
8 YHWH [is] merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.
Mmɔborɔhunufoɔ ne ɔdomfoɔ ne Awurade, ne bo kyɛre fu na nʼadɔeɛ dɔɔso.
9 He does not strive forever, Nor does He watch for all time.
Ɔrenkɔ so mmɔ soboɔ, na ɔrennya yɛn ho menasepɔ nkɔsi daa;
10 He has not done to us according to our sins, Nor according to our iniquities Has He conferred benefits on us.
Ɔrenhwɛ yɛn bɔne ne yɛn nni sɛdeɛ ɛfata na ɔrentua yɛn nnebɔne so ka sɛdeɛ ɛteɛ.
11 For as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth, His kindness has been mighty over those fearing Him.
Na sɛdeɛ ɔsoro ne asase ntam ware no, saa ara na nʼadɔeɛ so wɔ wɔn a wɔsuro no so.
12 He has put our transgressions far from us—as the distance of east from west.
Sɛdeɛ apueeɛ ne atɔeɛ ntam ware no, saa ara na wama yɛn ne yɛn mmarato ntam kwan aware.
13 As a father has mercy on sons, YHWH has mercy on those fearing Him.
Sɛdeɛ agya yam hyehye no ne mma ho no, saa ara na Awurade yam hyehye no ma wɔn a wɔsuro no,
14 For He has known our frame, Remembering that we [are] dust.
na ɔnim sɛdeɛ wɔyɛɛ yɛn, ɔkae sɛ yɛyɛ mfuturo.
15 Mortal man! His days [are] as grass, He flourishes as a flower of the field;
Ɔdasani deɛ, ne nna te sɛ ɛserɛ, ɔyɛ frɔmm sɛ wiram nhwiren;
16 For a wind has passed over it, and it is not, And its place does not discern it anymore.
sɛ mframa bɔ fa ne so a, na ɔnni hɔ, na ne sibea nnim no bio.
17 And the kindness of YHWH [Is] from age even to age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons’ sons,
Nanso ɛfiri mmerɛsanten kɔsi nnasanten Awurade adɔeɛ wɔ wɔn a wɔsuro no so, na ne tenenee wɔ wɔn mma mma so,
18 To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.
wɔn a wɔdi nʼapam no so na wɔkae di ne mmara so.
19 YHWH has established His throne in the heavens, And His kingdom has ruled over all.
Awurade asi nʼahennwa wɔ soro, na nʼahennie di adeɛ nyinaa so.
20 Bless YHWH, you His messengers, Mighty in power—doing His word, To listen to the voice of His word.
Monkamfo Awurade, mo a moyɛ nʼabɔfoɔ, mo atumfoɔ a moyɛ nʼahyɛdeɛ, mo a motie nʼasɛm.
21 Bless YHWH, all you His hosts, His ministers—doing His pleasure.
Monkamfo Awurade, ɔsoro asafo nyinaa, nʼasomfoɔ a moyɛ nʼapɛdeɛ.
22 Bless YHWH, all you His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, YHWH!
Monkamfo Awurade, ne nnwuma nyinaa deɛ ɛwɔ nʼaheman mu nyinaa. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade!
