Nnwom 66
1 Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Dawid dwom. Asase nyinaa momfa ahosɛpɛ nteam mma Onyankopɔn!
For the chief musician. A song, a psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;
2 Monto ne din animuonyamhyɛ ho dwom; momma nʼayɛyie nyɛ animuonyamhyɛ!
Sing out the glory of his name; make his praise glorious.
3 Monse Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Wo nneyɛɛ yɛ nwanwa wo tumi so na wʼatamfoɔ nyinaa de suro koto wʼanim.
Say to God, “How terrifying are your deeds! By the greatness of your power your enemies will submit to you.
4 Asase nyinaa koto wo; wɔto ayɛyi dwom ma wo, wɔto dwom kamfo wo din.”
All the earth will worship you and will sing to you; they will sing to your name.” (Selah)
5 Mommra mmɛhwɛ deɛ Onyankopɔn ayɛ; anwanwadeɛ a wayɛ wɔ nnipa mu.
Come and see the works of God; he is fearsome in his deeds toward the sons of mankind.
6 Ɔmaa ɛpo yɛɛ asase kesee; wɔnante twaa asuo no. Mommra na yɛnni ahurisie wɔ ne mu.
He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot; there we rejoiced in him.
7 Ɔde ne tumi di ɔhene daa daa, na ɔde nʼani nso hwɛ aman so. Mma atuatefoɔ nsɔre ntia no.
He rules forever by his might; his eyes observe the nations; let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
8 Ao aman nyinaa, monhyira yɛn Onyankopɔn, momma wɔnte mo nkamfo no nnyegyeɛ.
Give blessing to God, you people, let the sound of his praise be heard.
9 Wahwɛ yɛn nkwa so na wamma yɛn nan anwatiri.
He keeps us among the living, and he does not permit our feet to slip.
10 Na wo, Ao Onyankopɔn, wosɔɔ yɛn hwɛeɛ; na wohoaa yɛn ho sɛ dwetɛ.
For you, God, have tested us; you have tested us as silver is tested.
11 Wode yɛn kɔguu nneduadan mu na wode nneɛma a ɛyɛ duru too yɛn akyi.
You brought us into a net; you laid a heavy burden on our backs.
12 Womaa yɛn atamfoɔ twi faa yɛn so; yɛfaa ogya ne nsuo mu, nanso wode yɛn baa baabi a nnepa abu so.
You made people ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us out into a spacious place.
13 Mede ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ bɛba wʼasɔredan mu na madi ɛbɔ a mahyɛ wo no so,
I will come into your house with burnt offerings; I will pay you my vows
14 ɛbɔ a mʼano fafa hyɛeɛ na mʼano kaaeɛ ɛberɛ a na mewɔ ɔhaw mu no.
which my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in distress.
15 Mede mmoa a wɔadɔ sradeɛ bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ ama wo nnwennini ayɛyɛdeɛ; mede anantwinini ne mpapo bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ.
I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals with the sweet aroma of rams; I will offer bulls and goats. (Selah)
16 Mommra mmɛtie, mo a mosuro Onyankopɔn nyinaa; momma menka deɛ wayɛ ama me nkyerɛ mo.
Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will declare what he has done for my soul.
17 Mede mʼano su frɛɛ no; na me tɛkrɛma yii no ayɛ.
I cried to him with my mouth, and he was praised with my tongue.
18 Sɛ mede bɔne hyɛɛ mʼakomam a, anka Awurade antie me.
If I had seen sin within my heart, the Lord would not have listened to me.
19 Nanso, nokorɛm, Onyankopɔn atie me, wate me mpaeɛbɔ.
But God has truly heard; he has paid attention to the voice of my prayer.
20 Nhyira nka Onyankopɔn, a wampo me mpaeɛbɔ na wanyi nʼadɔeɛ amfiri me so.
Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer or his covenant faithfulness from me.
