< Nnwom 66 >
1 Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Dawid dwom. Asase nyinaa momfa ahosɛpɛw nteɛ mu mma Onyankopɔn!
For the Leader. A Song, a Psalm. Shout unto God, all the earth;
2 Monto ne din anuonyamhyɛ ho dwom; momma nʼayeyi nyɛ anuonyamhyɛ!
Sing praises unto the glory of His name; make His praise glorious.
3 Munse Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Wo nneyɛe yɛ nwonwa dodo! Wo tumi so mmoroso a wʼatamfo nyinaa de osuro kotow wʼanim.
Say unto God: 'How tremendous is Thy work! Through the greatness of Thy power shall Thine enemies dwindle away before Thee.
4 Asase nyinaa kotow wo; wɔto ayeyi dwom ma wo, wɔto dwom kamfo wo din.”
All the earth shall worship Thee, and shall sing praises unto Thee; they shall sing praises to Thy name.' (Selah)
5 Mommra mmɛhwɛ nea Onyankopɔn ayɛ; anwonwade a wayɛ wɔ nnipa mu.
Come, and see the works of God; He is terrible in His doing toward the children of men.
6 Ɔmaa po yɛɛ asase kesee; wɔnantew twaa nsu no mommra mma yenni ahurusi wɔ no mu.
He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot; there let us rejoice in Him!
7 Ɔde ne tumi di hene daa daa, na ɔde nʼani nso hwɛ aman so. Mma atuatewfo nsɔre ntia no.
Who ruleth by His might for ever; His eyes keep watch upon the nations; let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
8 Aman nyinaa, munhyira yɛn Nyankopɔn, momma wɔnte mo nkamfo no nnyigyei;
Bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of His praise to be heard;
9 wahwɛ yɛn nkwa so na wamma yɛn anan anwatiri.
Who hath set our soul in life, and suffered not our foot to be moved,
10 Na wo, Onyankopɔn, wosɔɔ yɛn hwɛe; na wonan yɛn sɛ dwetɛ.
For Thou, O God, hast tried us; Thou hast refined us, as silver is refined.
11 Wode yɛn koguu afiase na wode nneɛma a ɛyɛ duru too yɛn akyi.
Thou didst bring us into the hold; Thou didst lay constraint upon our loins.
12 Womaa yɛn atamfo twiw faa yɛn so; yɛfaa ogya ne nsu mu, nanso wode yɛn baa faako a nnepa abu so.
Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but Thou didst bring us out unto abundance.
13 Mede ɔhyew afɔre bɛba wʼasɔredan mu na madi bɔ a mahyɛ wo no so,
I will come into Thy house with burnt-offerings, I will perform unto Thee my vows,
14 bɔ a mʼanofafa hyɛe, na mʼano kaa bere a na mewɔ ɔhaw mu no.
Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in distress.
15 Mede mmoa a wɔadɔ srade bɛbɔ afɔre ama wo; adwennini ayɛyɛde; mede anantwinini ne mpapo bɛbɔ afɔre.
I will offer unto Thee burnt-offerings of fatlings, with the sweet smoke of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)
16 Mommra mmetie, mo a musuro Onyankopɔn nyinaa; momma menka nea wayɛ ama me nkyerɛ mo.
Come, and hearken, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what He hath done for my soul.
17 Mede mʼano su frɛɛ no; na me tɛkrɛma yii no ayɛ.
I cried unto Him with my mouth, and He was extolled with my tongue.
18 Sɛ mede bɔne hyɛɛ me koma mu a, anka Awurade antie me.
If I had regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear;
19 Nanso nokware, Onyankopɔn atie me, wate me mpaebɔ.
But verily God hath heard; He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Nhyira nka Onyankopɔn, a wampo me mpaebɔ na wanyi nʼadɔe amfi me so.
Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me.
