Psalms 135
1 Praise ye the LORD! Praise ye the name of the LORD! Praise him, O ye servants of the LORD!
Monkamfo Awurade. Monkamfo Awurade din; monkamfo no, mo Awurade asomfoɔ,
2 Ye 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 ye the LORD, for the LORD is good; Praise his name, for he is kind!
Monkamfo Awurade ɛfiri sɛ ɔyɛ; monto ayɛyie dwom mma ne din, na ɛno na ɛyɛ anisɔ.
4 For the LORD chose Jacob for himself, And Israel for his own possession.
Awurade ayi Yakob sɛ ɔnyɛ ne deɛ, wayi Israel sɛ nʼadeɛ a ɛsom bo.
5 I know that the LORD is great; That our Lord is above all gods.
Menim sɛ Awurade so; Ɔso sene anyame nyinaa.
6 All that the LORD pleaseth, that he doeth, In heaven and upon earth, In the sea, and in all deeps.
Awurade yɛ deɛ ɔpɛ biara, wɔ ɔsoro ne asase so, ɛpo ne emu abunu nyinaa.
7 He causeth the clouds to ascend from the ends of the earth; He maketh lightnings for the rain; He bringeth the wind from his store-houses.
Ɔma omununkum ma ne ho so firi asase ano ba; ɔsoma anyinam ka osutɔ ho na ɔma ahum tu firi nʼakoradan mu.
8 He smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast.
Ɔkumm Misraim mmakan, nnipa ne mmoa mmakan.
9 He sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt! Against Pharaoh and all his servants!
Ɔsomaa ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ne nʼanwanwadeɛ baa mo mfimfini, Ao Misraim, de tiaa Farao ne nʼasomfoɔ nyinaa.
10 He smote many nations, And slew mighty kings;
Ɔsɛee amanaman pii na ɔkunkumm ahemfo akɛseɛ,
11 Sihon, the king of the Amorites, And Og, the king of Bashan, And all the kings of Canaan;
Amorifoɔ ɔhene, Sihon Basan ɔhene, Og ne Kanaan ahemfo nyinaa,
12 And gave their land for an inheritance, For an inheritance to Israel, his people.
na ɔde wɔn nsase maa sɛ agyapadeɛ; ɔde maa ne nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ.
13 Thy name, O LORD! endureth for ever; Thy memorial, O LORD! to all generations!
Ao Awurade, wo din wɔ hɔ daa. Ao Awurade wo din ahyeta awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nyinaa mu.
14 For the LORD judgeth his people, And hath compassion on his servants.
Awurade bɛdi ama ne nkurɔfoɔ na ɔbɛhunu nʼasomfoɔ mmɔbɔ.
15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men's hands.
Amanaman no ahoni yɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde onipa nsa na ayɛ.
16 They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not.
Wɔwɔ ano, nanso wɔntumi nkasa, wɔwɔ ani, nanso wɔnhunu adeɛ;
17 They have ears, but they hear not; And there is no breath in their mouths.
wɔwɔ aso, nanso wɔnte asɛm, na ahomeɛ nso nni wɔn anom.
18 They that make them are like them; So is every one that trusteth 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 Praise the LORD, O house of Israel! Praise the LORD, O house of Aaron!
Monkamfo Awurade, Ao Israel fiefoɔ; monkamfo Awurade, Ao Aaron fiefoɔ;
20 Praise the LORD, O house of Levi! Ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD!
monkamfo Awurade, Ao Lewi fiefoɔ; monkamfo Awurade, mo a mosuro no.
21 Praised be the LORD out of Zion, He that dwelleth in Jerusalem! Praise ye the LORD!
Momfiri Sion nkamfo Awurade, monkamfo deɛ ɔte Yerusalem no. Monkamfo Awurade.
