Nnwom 66
1 Dawid dwom. Asase nyinaa momfa ahosɛpɛ nteam mma Onyankopɔn!
To the Overseer. — A Song, a Psalm. Shout ye to God, all the earth.
2 Monto ne din animuonyamhyɛ ho dwom; momma nʼayɛyie nyɛ animuonyamhyɛ!
Praise ye the honour of His name, Make ye honourable His praise.
3 Monse Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Wo nneyɛɛ yɛ nwanwa wo tumi so na wʼatamfoɔ nyinaa de suro koto wʼanim.
Say to God, 'How fearful [are] Thy works, By the abundance of Thy strength, Thine enemies feign obedience to Thee.
4 Asase nyinaa koto wo; wɔto ayɛyi dwom ma wo, wɔto dwom kamfo wo din.”
All the earth do bow to Thee, They sing praise to Thee, they praise Thy name.' (Selah)
5 Mommra mmɛhwɛ deɛ Onyankopɔn ayɛ; anwanwadeɛ a wayɛ wɔ nnipa mu.
Come ye, and see the works of God, Fearful acts toward the sons of men.
6 Ɔmaa ɛpo yɛɛ asase kesee; wɔnante twaa asuo no. Mommra na yɛnni ahurisie wɔ ne mu.
He hath turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass over on foot, There do we rejoice in Him.
7 Ɔde ne tumi di ɔhene daa daa, na ɔde nʼani nso hwɛ aman so. Mma atuatefoɔ nsɔre ntia no.
Ruling by His might to the age, His eyes among the nations do watch, The refractory exalt not themselves. (Selah)
8 Ao aman nyinaa, monhyira yɛn Onyankopɔn, momma wɔnte mo nkamfo no nnyegyeɛ.
Bless, ye peoples, our God, And sound the voice of His praise,
9 Wahwɛ yɛn nkwa so na wamma yɛn nan anwatiri.
Who hath placed our soul in life, And suffered not our feet to be moved.
10 Na wo, Ao Onyankopɔn, wosɔɔ yɛn hwɛeɛ; na wohoaa yɛn ho sɛ dwetɛ.
For Thou hast tried us, O God, Thou hast refined us as the refining of silver.
11 Wode yɛn kɔguu nneduadan mu na wode nneɛma a ɛyɛ duru too yɛn akyi.
Thou hast brought us into a net, Thou hast placed pressure on our loins.
12 Womaa yɛn atamfoɔ twi faa yɛn so; yɛfaa ogya ne nsuo mu, nanso wode yɛn baa baabi a nnepa abu so.
Thou hast caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, And Thou bringest us out to a watered place.
13 Mede ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ bɛba wʼasɔredan mu na madi ɛbɔ a mahyɛ wo no so,
I enter Thy house with burnt-offerings, I complete to Thee my vows,
14 ɛbɔ a mʼano fafa hyɛeɛ na mʼano kaaeɛ ɛberɛ a na mewɔ ɔhaw mu no.
For opened were my lips, And my mouth spake in my distress:
15 Mede mmoa a wɔadɔ sradeɛ bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ ama wo nnwennini ayɛyɛdeɛ; mede anantwinini ne mpapo bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ.
'Burnt-offerings of fatlings I offer to Thee, With perfume of rams, I prepare a bullock with he-goats.' (Selah)
16 Mommra mmɛtie, mo a mosuro Onyankopɔn nyinaa; momma menka deɛ wayɛ ama me nkyerɛ mo.
Come, hear, all ye who fear God, And I recount what he did for my soul.
17 Mede mʼano su frɛɛ no; na me tɛkrɛma yii no ayɛ.
Unto Him [with] my mouth I have called, And exaltation [is] under my tongue.
18 Sɛ mede bɔne hyɛɛ mʼakomam a, anka Awurade antie me.
Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, The Lord doth not hear.
19 Nanso, nokorɛm, Onyankopɔn atie me, wate me mpaeɛbɔ.
But God hath heard, He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Nhyira nka Onyankopɔn, a wampo me mpaeɛbɔ na wanyi nʼadɔeɛ amfiri me so. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔde sankuo na ɛtoeɛ.
Blessed [is] God, Who hath not turned aside my prayer, And His loving-kindness, from me!
