< Psalms 106 >

1 Praise YAH, give thanks to YHWH, for [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time!
Monkamfo Awurade! Monna Awurade ase na ɔyɛ; na nʼadɔeɛ wɔ hɔ daa.
2 Who utters the mighty acts of YHWH? Sounds all His praise?
Hwan na ɔbɛtumi aka nneɛma akɛseɛ a Awurade ayɛ? Anaasɛ ɔbɛtumi aka ne nkamfo awie?
3 O the blessedness of those keeping judgment, Doing righteousness at all times.
Nhyira nka wɔn a wɔkɔ so bu atɛntenenee, na daa wɔyɛ deɛ ɛyɛ.
4 Remember me, O YHWH, With the favor of Your people, Look after me in Your salvation.
Ao Awurade, sɛ wohunu wo nkurɔfoɔ mmɔbɔ a kae me. Sɛ wogye wɔn nkwa a, boa me,
5 To look on the good of Your chosen ones, To rejoice in the joy of Your nation, To boast myself with Your inheritance.
na manya wɔn a wapa wɔn no yiedie mu kyɛfa, na manya wo manfoɔ anigyeɛ no mu kyɛfa na me ne wʼagyapadeɛ no abɔ mu de nkamfo ama wo.
6 We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely, we have done wickedly.
Yɛayɛ bɔne sɛdeɛ yɛn nananom yɛeɛ no; yɛayɛ mfomsoɔ na yɛadi atirimuɔdensɛm.
7 Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Your wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Your kind acts, And provoke by the sea, at the Sea of Suph.
Ɛberɛ a yɛn nananom wɔ Misraim no, wɔannwene wo nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ho; wɔankae wʼadɔeɛ bebrebe no, na wɔtee atua wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ho.
8 And He saves them for His Name’s sake, To make His might known,
Nanso, ne din enti ɔgyee wɔn nkwa, sɛdeɛ ɔbɛda ne tumi kɛseɛ no adi.
9 And rebukes the Sea of Suph, and it is dried up, And causes them to go Through depths as a wilderness.
Ɔteaa Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ma ɛwee; ɔde wɔn faa abunu mu te sɛ ɛserɛ so.
10 And He saves them from the hand Of him who is hating, And redeems them from the hand of the enemy.
Ɔgyee wɔn firii ɔtamfoɔ no nsam; deɛ ɔtane wɔn nsam na ɔyii wɔn firiiɛ.
11 And waters cover their adversaries, One of them has not been left.
Nsuo kataa wɔn atamfoɔ so; na ɔbaako mpo annya nkwa.
12 And they believe in His words, they sing His praise,
Afei wɔgyee ne bɔhyɛ no diiɛ na wɔtoo nʼayɛyie dwom.
13 They have hurried—forgotten His works, They have not waited for His counsel.
Nanso, ntɛm so, wɔn werɛ firii deɛ wayɛ na wɔantwɛn nʼagyinatuo.
14 And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a desert.
Akɔnnɔ bɛhyɛɛ wɔn mu wɔ ɛserɛ so hɔ, na wɔ asase paradada no so, wɔsɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛeɛ,
15 And He gives to them their request, And sends leanness into their soul.
enti ɔmaa wɔn deɛ wɔbisaeɛ, nanso, ɔde ɔfɔn yadeɛ baa wɔn so.
16 And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, YHWH’s holy one.
Na nsraban mu hɔ wɔn ani beree Mose ne Aaron a Awurade ate ne ho no.
17 Earth opens, and swallows up Dathan, And covers over the company of Abiram.
Asase mu buee na ɛmenee Datan na ɛsiee Abiram asafo no.
18 And fire burns among their company, A flame sets the wicked on fire.
Egya tɔɔ wɔn akyidifoɔ no mu; ogyaframa hyee amumuyɛfoɔ no.
19 They make a calf in Horeb, And bow themselves to a molten image,
Wɔyɛɛ nantwie ba wɔ Horeb na wɔkotoo ohoni a wɔde fagudeɛ ayɛ.
20 And change their glory Into the form of an ox eating herbs.
Wɔsesaa wɔn Animuonyam. Wɔde nantwinini, a ɔwe ɛserɛ nsɛsodeɛ.
21 They have forgotten God their Savior, The doer of great things in Egypt,
Wɔn werɛ firii Onyankopɔn a ɔgyee wɔn nkwa, deɛ ɔyɛɛ nneɛma akɛseɛ wɔ Misraim no,
22 Of wonderful things in the land of Ham, Of fearful things by the Sea of Suph.
nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɔyɛɛ wɔ Ham asase so ne nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ ho no.
23 And He commands to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath from destroying.
Enti ɔkaa sɛ ɔbɛsɛe wɔn, nanso Mose a ɔyɛ deɛ wapa noɔ no sɔre gyinaa Onyankopɔn ne nnipa no ntam; ɔsrɛɛ no, dwodwoo nʼabufuo no ano sɛdeɛ ɔrensɛe wɔn.
24 And they kick against the desirable land, They have not given credence to His word.
Afei, wɔn ani ansɔ asase fɛfɛ no; na wɔannye ne bɔhyɛ anni.
25 And they murmur in their tents, They have not listened to the voice of YHWH.
Wɔnwiinwii wɔ wɔn ntomadan mu na wɔannyɛ ɔsetie amma Awurade.
26 And He lifts up His hand to them, To cause them to fall in a wilderness,
Enti ɔmaa ne nsa so kaa ntam kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ ɔbɛma wɔn atotɔ wɔ ɛserɛ no so,
27 And to cause their seed to fall among nations, And to scatter them through lands.
ɔbɛma wɔn asefoɔ atotɔ wɔ amanaman mu na wabɔ wɔn ahwete nsase nyinaa so.
28 And they are coupled to Ba‘al-Peor, And eat the sacrifices of the dead,
Wɔde wɔn ho bɔɔ Baal-peor ho na wɔdii afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔde ama anyame a wɔnni nkwa;
29 And they provoke to anger by their actions, And a plague breaks forth on them,
wɔde wɔn atirimuɔdensɛm hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo na ɔyaredɔm sii wɔn mu.
30 And Phinehas stands, and executes judgment, And the plague is restrained,
Na Pinehas sɔre dii agyinamu, na Awurade sii ɔyaredɔm no ano.
31 And it is reckoned to him for righteousness, From generation to generation—for all time.
Wɔde yei yɛɛ tenenee maa Pinehas wɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a ɛnni awieeɛ a ɛbɛba no mu.
32 And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is evil to Moses for their sakes,
Meriba nsuo ho nso, wɔhyɛɛ Awurade abufuo, na wɔn enti, ɔhaw baa Mose so,
33 For they have provoked his spirit, And he speaks wrongfully with his lips.
ɛfiri sɛ wɔtee Onyankopɔn Honhom anim atua, na asɛm a wannwene ho firii Mose anomu.
34 They have not destroyed the peoples, As YHWH had commanded to them,
Wɔansɛe nnipa no sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no,
35 And mix themselves among nations, and learn their works,
nanso wɔde wɔn ho frafraa amanaman no yɛɛ nneɛma a wɔyɛ no bi.
36 And serve their idols, And they are for a snare to them.
Wɔsomm wɔn ahoni na ɛbɛyɛɛ afidie maa wɔn.
37 And they sacrifice their sons and their daughters to the demons,
Wɔde wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa abosom.
38 And they shed innocent blood—Blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.
Wɔkaa mogya a ɛdi bem guiɛ; wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa mogya a wɔde bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Kanaan ahoni no maa asase no ho guu fi.
39 And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.
Wɔde deɛ wɔyɛeɛ no guu wɔn ankasa ho fi; wɔnam deɛ wɔyɛeɛ no so bɔɔ adwaman.
40 And the anger of YHWH Is kindled against His people, And He detests His inheritance.
Enti, Awurade bo fuu ne nkurɔfoɔ; na ɔkyirii nʼagyapadeɛ.
41 And gives them into the hand of nations, And those hating them rule over them,
Ɔdanee wɔn maa amanaman no, na wɔn atamfoɔ dii wɔn so.
42 And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.
Wɔn atamfoɔ hyɛɛ wɔn so na wɔkaa wɔn hyɛɛ wɔn tumi ase.
43 He delivers them many times, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.
Mpɛn bebree, Awurade gyee wɔn, nanso wɔkɔɔ so tee atua na wɔsɛe wɔ wɔn bɔne mu.
44 And He looks on their distress When He hears their cry,
Nanso ɔhunuu wɔn ahohiahia ɛberɛ a wɔsu frɛɛ noɔ no;
45 And remembers His covenant for them, And is comforted, According to the abundance of His kindness.
Wɔn enti, ɔkaee nʼapam no na ɔfirii nʼadɔeɛ kɛseɛ no mu hunuu wɔn mmɔbɔ.
46 And He appoints them for mercies Before all their captors.
Ɔmaa sodifoɔ a wɔafa wɔn nnommum no nyaa ahummɔborɔ maa wɔn.
47 Save us, O our God YHWH, and gather us from the nations, To give thanks to Your Holy Name, To glory in Your praise.
Gye yɛn, Ao Awurade yɛn nkwagyeɛ Onyankopɔn, na boaboa yɛn ano firi amanaman so, na yɛada wo din kronkron no ase, na yɛde nkamfo ahyɛ wo animuonyam.
48 Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, From age until age. And all the people said, “Amen, praise YAH!”
Ayɛyie nka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ɛmfiri mmerɛsanten nkɔsi nnasanten. Momma nnipa no nyinaa nka sɛ, “Amen!” Monkamfo Awurade.
