Psalms 104
1 Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on.
Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade! Ao Awurade me Onyankopɔn, woyɛ ɔkɛseɛ! Wɔafira tumi ne animuonyam.
2 Covering himself [with] light as a garment, Stretching out the heavens as a curtain,
Ɔde hann akata ne ho sɛ atadeɛ; ɔtrɛ ɔsoro mu te sɛ ntomadan,
3 Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the waters, Who is making thick clouds His chariot, Who is walking on wings of wind,
na ɔde ne mpia mpunan sisi nsuo so. Ɔde omununkum yɛ ne teaseɛnam na ɔde nante mframa ntaban so.
4 Making His messengers — the winds, His ministers — the flaming fire.
Ɔsoma nʼabɔfoɔ sɛ mframa, na ɔsoma nʼasomfoɔ sɛ ogyadɛreɛ.
5 He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the age and for ever.
Ɔde asase asi ne fapem so na ɛrenhinhim da.
6 The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above hills do waters stand.
Wode ebunu kataa so sɛ atadeɛ na nsuo gyinaa mmepɔ no so.
7 From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder haste away.
Nanso wʼanimka maa nsuo no dwaneeɛ, wʼaprannaa nnyegyeeɛ ma wɔdwaneeɛ;
8 They go up hills — they go down valleys, Unto a place Thou hast founded for them.
Wɔtenetenee faa mmepɔ so, kɔɔ mmɔnhwa mu tɔnn, kɔguu baabi a wode ama wɔn no.
9 A border Thou hast set, they pass not over, They turn not back to cover the earth.
Wotoo ɔhyeɛ a wɔrentumi ntra; na wɔammɛkata asase so bio.
10 Who is sending forth fountains in valleys, Between hills they go on.
Ɔma nsuwa tene fa abɔn mu; ɛtene fa mmepɔ ntam.
11 They water every beast of the field, Wild asses break their thirst.
Ɔma wiram mmoa nyinaa nsuo nom; ɔma afunumu nsuo de kum wɔn sukɔm.
12 By them the fowl of the heavens doth dwell, From between the branches They give forth the voice.
Ewiem nnomaa nwene wɔn pirebuo wɔ nsuo no ho; na wɔto nnwom wɔ nnua no mman so.
13 Watering hills from His upper chambers, From the fruit of Thy works is the earth satisfied.
Ɔfiri ne soro mpia mu tɔ nsuo gugu mmepɔ so; Awurade nnwuma so aba mee asase.
14 Causing grass to spring up for cattle, And herb for the service of man, To bring forth bread from the earth,
Ɔma ɛserɛ fifiri ma anantwie, na ɔbɔɔ nnua maa onipa sɛ ɔnnua na ɛmma aduane mfiri asase mu:
15 And wine — it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the face to shine from oil, And bread — the heart of man it supporteth.
na onipa anya nsã ama nʼakoma atɔ ne yam, na onipa anya ngo ama nʼanim atɔ so, na aduane nso akura onipa akoma.
16 Satisfied [are] the trees of Jehovah, Cedars of Lebanon that He hath planted,
Wɔgugu Awurade nnua no so yie, Lebanon ntweneduro a ɔduaeɛ no.
17 Where birds do make nests, The stork — the firs [are] her house.
Ɛso na nnomaa yɛ wɔn mpirebuo na asukɔnkɔn nso yɛ nʼatenaeɛ wɔ pepeaa nnua no mu.
18 The high hills [are] for wild goats, Rocks [are] a refuge for conies,
Mmepɔ atentene no yɛ wiram mpɔnkye dea; na abotan yɛ dwanekɔbea ma amoakua.
19 He made the moon for seasons, The sun hath known his place of entrance.
Ɔsrane kyerɛ ɛberɛ nkyekyɛmu, na owia nim ɛberɛ a ɔkɔtɔ.
20 Thou settest darkness, and it is night, In it doth every beast of the forest creep.
Wode esum ba ma ɛyɛ adesaeɛ na kwaeɛ mu mmoa nyinaa kɔ ahayɔ.
21 The young lions are roaring for prey, And to seek from God their food.
Gyata bobom pɛ wɔn ahaboa wɔhwehwɛ wɔn aduane firi Onyankopɔn hɔ.
22 The sun riseth, they are gathered, And in their dens they crouch.
Owia pue ma wɔsane wɔn akyi; wɔsane kɔdeda wɔn atuo mu.
23 Man goeth forth to his work, And to his service — till evening.
Afei, onipa kɔ nʼadwuma so kɔyɛ adwuma ara kɔsi anwummerɛ.
24 How many have been Thy works, O Jehovah, All of them in wisdom Thou hast made, Full is the earth of thy possessions.
Ao Awurade, wo nnwuma dɔɔso! Nyansa mu na woyɛɛ ne nyinaa; wʼabɔdeɛ ahyɛ asase so ma.
25 This, the sea, great and broad of sides, There [are] moving things — innumerable, Living creatures — small with great.
Ɛpo na ɛda hɔ tɛtrɛɛ hahanaa yi, a abɔdeɛ bebree a ɛnni ano, akɛseɛ ne nketewa ahyɛ no ma.
26 There do ships go: leviathan, That Thou hast formed to play in it.
Ɛso na ahyɛn di akɔneaba, na dɛnkyɛmmirampɔn a woyɛɛ no di agorɔ.
27 All of them unto Thee do look, To give their food in its season.
Wɔn nyinaa hwɛ wo kwan sɛ wobɛma wɔn wɔn aduane wɔ ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ mu.
28 Thou dost give to them — they gather, Thou dost open Thy hand — they [are] satisfied [with] good.
Wodema wɔn a, wɔtase; wobue wo nsam a, nnepa mee wɔn.
29 Thou hidest Thy face — they are troubled, Thou gatherest their spirit — they expire, And unto their dust they turn back.
Wode wʼanim hinta wɔn a, wɔbɔ hu; sɛ wogye wɔn ahomeɛ a, wɔwuwu na wɔsane kɔ mfuturo mu.
30 Thou sendest out Thy Spirit, they are created, And Thou renewest the face of the ground.
Sɛ wode wo Honhom no ma wɔn a na wɔabɔ wɔn, na woyɛ asase ani foforɔ.
31 The honour of Jehovah is to the age, Jehovah rejoiceth in His works,
Ma Awurade animuonyam ntena hɔ daa; ma Awurade ani nnye ne nnwuma ho,
32 Who is looking to earth, and it trembleth, He cometh against hills, and they smoke.
deɛ ɔhwɛ asase na ɛwosoɔ, na ɔde ne nsa ka mmepɔ a wisie firi mu ba.
33 I sing to Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.
Mɛto dwom ama Awurade me nkwa nna nyinaa; sɛ mete ase yi, mɛto ayɛyie dwom ama me Onyankopɔn.
34 Sweet is my meditation on Him, I — I do rejoice in Jehovah.
Ɔmma mʼakoma mu mpaeɛbɔ nsɔ nʼani ɛberɛ a meregye mʼani wɔ Awurade mu yi.
35 Consumed are sinners from the earth, And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah!
Ma nnebɔneyɛfoɔ nyera wɔ asase so; na amumuyɛfoɔ ase nhye. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade. Kamfo Awurade.
