Nnwom 145
1 Ayeyi dwom. Dawid de. Mɛma wo so, me Nyankopɔn, Ɔhenkɛse; mɛkamfo wo din daa daa.
“A song of praise. By David.” I will extol thee, my God, the King! I will praise thy name for ever and ever!
2 Da biara, mɛkamfo wo; na mama wo din so daa daa.
Every day will I bless thee, And praise thy name 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; Yea, his greatness is unsearchable.
4 Awo ntoatoaso baako bɛkamfo wo nnwuma akyerɛ afoforo; wɔbɛka wo nnwuma akɛse ho asɛm.
One generation shall praise thy works to another, And shall declare thy mighty deeds.
5 Wɔbɛka wʼanuonyam ne wo tumi a ɛheran no ho asɛm, na mɛdwene wʼanwonwadwuma ho.
I will speak of the glorious honor of thy majesty, And of thy wonderful works.
6 Wɔbɛka wo nnwuma a ɛyɛ hu no mu tumi ho asɛm; na mapae mu aka wo nneyɛe akɛse no akyerɛ.
Men shall speak of the might of thy terrible deeds, And I will declare thy greatness;
7 Wɔbɛhyɛ wo papayɛ mmoroso no ho fa, na wɔde anigye ato wo trenee ho dwom.
They shall pour forth the praise of thy great good And sing of thy righteousness.
8 Awurade yɛ ɔdomfo ne mmɔborɔhunufo; ne bo kyɛ fuw na nʼadɔe dɔɔso.
The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion, Slow to anger, and rich in mercy.
9 Awurade ye ma obiara; na ɔwɔ ahummɔbɔ ma nʼabɔde nyinaa.
The LORD is good to all. And his tender mercies are over all his works.
10 Awurade, wʼabɔde nyinaa bɛkamfo wo; na wʼahotefo bɛma wo so.
All thy works praise thee, O LORD! And thy holy ones bless thee!
11 Wɔbɛka wʼahenni no anuonyam ho asɛm na wɔaka wo mmaninyɛ ho asɛm,
They speak of the glory of thy kingdom, And talk of thy power;
12 sɛ ɛbɛyɛ a nnipa behu wo nnwuma akɛse ne wʼahenni anuonyam a ɛheran no.
To make known to the sons of men his mighty deeds, And the glorious majesty of his 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 an everlasting kingdom, And thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.
14 Awurade wowaw wɔn a wɔhwe ase na ɔpagyaw wɔn a wɔn nnesoa ama wɔakom.
The LORD upholdeth all that fall, And raiseth up all that are bowed down.
15 Aniwa nyinaa hwɛ wo kwan, na woma wɔn, wɔn aduan wɔ ne bere mu.
The eyes of all wait upon thee, And thou givest them their food in due season;
16 Wubue wo nsam, na woma biribiara a ɛwɔ nkwa no nʼapɛde.
Thou openest thine hand, And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
17 Awurade teɛ wɔ nʼakwan nyinaa mu; na ɔyɛ adɔe ma nea wayɛ nyinaa.
The LORD is righteous in all his ways, And merciful in all his works.
18 Awurade bɛn wɔn a wɔfrɛ no nyinaa, wɔn a wɔfrɛ no nokware mu nyinaa.
The LORD is nigh to all 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 fulfilleth the desire of them that fear him; He heareth their cry, and saveth them.
20 Awurade hwɛ wɔn a wɔdɔ no no nyinaa so, nanso amumɔyɛfo de, ɔbɛsɛe wɔn nyinaa.
The LORD preserveth all 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 his holy name for ever and ever!
