Nnwom 145
1 Ayeyi dwom. Dawid de. Mɛma wo so, me Nyankopɔn, Ɔhenkɛse; mɛkamfo wo din daa daa.
I will extol thee, O God my king: and I will bless thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
2 Da biara, mɛkamfo wo; na mama wo din so daa daa.
Every day I will bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
3 Awurade so, na ɔsɛ nkamfo kɛse; obiara ntumi nsusuw ne kɛseyɛ.
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and of his greatness there is no end.
4 Awo ntoatoaso baako bɛkamfo wo nnwuma akyerɛ afoforo; wɔbɛka wo nnwuma akɛse ho asɛm.
Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power.
5 Wɔbɛka wʼanuonyam ne wo tumi a ɛheran no ho asɛm, na mɛdwene wʼanwonwadwuma ho.
They shall speak of the magnificence of the glory of thy holiness: and shall tell thy wondrous works.
6 Wɔbɛka wo nnwuma a ɛyɛ hu no mu tumi ho asɛm; na mapae mu aka wo nneyɛe akɛse no akyerɛ.
And they shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and shall declare thy greatness.
7 Wɔbɛhyɛ wo papayɛ mmoroso no ho fa, na wɔde anigye ato wo trenee ho dwom.
They shall publish the memory of the abundance of thy sweetness: and shall rejoice in thy justice.
8 Awurade yɛ ɔdomfo ne mmɔborɔhunufo; ne bo kyɛ fuw na nʼadɔe dɔɔso.
The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy.
9 Awurade ye ma obiara; na ɔwɔ ahummɔbɔ ma nʼabɔde nyinaa.
The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
10 Awurade, wʼabɔde nyinaa bɛkamfo wo; na wʼahotefo bɛma wo so.
Let all thy works, O lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee.
11 Wɔbɛka wʼahenni no anuonyam ho asɛm na wɔaka wo mmaninyɛ ho asɛm,
They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom: and shall tell of thy power:
12 sɛ ɛbɛyɛ a nnipa behu wo nnwuma akɛse ne wʼahenni anuonyam a ɛheran no.
To make thy might known to the sons of men: and the glory of the magnificence of thy kingdom.
13 Wʼahenni yɛ daa ahenni, na wo tumidi wɔ hɔ ma awo ntoantoaso nyinaa. Awurade di ne bɔhyɛ nyinaa so, na ɔwɔ ɔdɔ ma biribiara a wayɛ.
Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages: and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. The Lord is faithful in all his words: and holy in all his works.
14 Awurade wowaw wɔn a wɔhwe ase na ɔpagyaw wɔn a wɔn nnesoa ama wɔakom.
The Lord lifteth up all that fall: and setteth up all that are cast down.
15 Aniwa nyinaa hwɛ wo kwan, na woma wɔn, wɔn aduan wɔ ne bere mu.
The eyes of all hope in thee, O Lord: and thou givest them meat in due season.
16 Wubue wo nsam, na woma biribiara a ɛwɔ nkwa no nʼapɛde.
Thou openest thy hand, and fillest with blessing every living creature.
17 Awurade teɛ wɔ nʼakwan nyinaa mu; na ɔyɛ adɔe ma nea wayɛ nyinaa.
The Lord is just in all his ways: and holy in all his works.
18 Awurade bɛn wɔn a wɔfrɛ no nyinaa, wɔn a wɔfrɛ no nokware mu nyinaa.
The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him: to all that call upon him in truth.
19 Ɔyɛ wɔn a wosuro no no apɛde ma wɔn; otie wɔn sufrɛ na ogye wɔn.
He will do the will of them that fear him: and he will hear their prayer, and save them.
20 Awurade hwɛ wɔn a wɔdɔ no no nyinaa so, nanso amumɔyɛfo de, ɔbɛsɛe wɔn nyinaa.
The Lord keepeth all them that love him; but all the wicked he will destroy.
21 Mʼano bɛkamfo Awurade. Ma abɔde nyinaa nkamfo ne din kronkron no daa daa.
My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh bless thy holy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
