< Psalms 115 >

1 Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to thy name give glory, for thy mercy, [and] for thy truth's sake.
Ɛnyɛ yɛn, Ao Awurade, ɛnyɛ yɛn na wo din na animuonyam nka, wʼadɔeɛ ne wo nokorɛdie enti.
2 Why should the heathen say, Where [is] now their God?
Adɛn enti na aman no bisa sɛ, “Wɔn Onyankopɔn wɔ he?”
3 But our God [is] in the heavens: he hath done whatever he pleased.
Yɛn Onyankopɔn wɔ ɔsoro; deɛ ɔpɛ biara na ɔyɛ.
4 Their idols [are] silver and gold; the work of men's hands.
Nanso wɔn ahoni yɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde onipa nsa na ayɛ.
5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:
Wɔwɔ ano, nanso wɔntumi nkasa; wɔwɔ ani, nanso wɔnhunu adeɛ.
6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:
Wɔwɔ aso, nanso wɔnte asɛm; wɔwɔ hwene, nanso wɔnte hwa.
7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.
Wɔwɔ nsa, nanso wɔnte nka; Wɔwɔ nan, nanso wɔnnante. Wɔntumi mma nnyegyeeɛ bi mfiri wɔn mene mu.
8 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.
9 O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he [is] their help and their shield.
Ao Israelfoɔ, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.
10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he [is] their help and their shield.
Ao Aaron fie, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.
11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he [is] their help and their shield.
Mo a mosuro no, momfa mo ho nto Awurade so, ɔyɛ mo ɔboafoɔ ne kyɛm.
12 The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless [us]; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.
Awurade kae yɛn na ɔbɛhyira yɛn: Ɔbɛhyira Israel fie, ɔbɛhyira Aaron fie
13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, [both] small and great.
Ɔbɛhyira wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, nkumaa ne akɛseɛ nyinaa.
14 The LORD will increase you more and more, you and your children.
Awurade mma wʼase nnɔre, wo ne wo mma.
15 Ye [are] blessed of the LORD who made heaven and earth.
Awurade nhyira wo, ɔsoro ne asase Yɛfoɔ no.
16 The heaven, [even] the heavens, [are] the LORD'S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
Ɔsorosoro yɛ Awurade dea, nanso asase deɛ, ɔde ama onipa.
17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.
Ɛnyɛ awufoɔ na wɔkamfo Awurade, wɔn a wɔkɔ fam dinn no rentumi nkamfo Awurade.
18 But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for ever. Praise the LORD.
Yɛn na yɛma Awurade so ɛnnɛ ne daa nyinaa. Monkamfo Awurade.
