Nnwom 77
1 Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔde ma Yedutun. Asaf dwom. Mesu mefrɛɛ Onyankopɔn srɛɛ mmoa; mesu mefrɛɛ no sɛ ɔntie me.
To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph. I cried to God with my voice, [even] to God with my voice; and he gave ear to me.
2 Ɛberɛ a mewɔ ahohiahia mu no, mehwehwɛɛ Awurade; metrɛɛ me nsa a ɛmpa aba mu anadwo na me kra ampene sɛ wɔbɛkyekye ne werɛ.
In the day of my trouble I sought the LORD: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.
3 Ao Onyankopɔn mekaee wo, na mesii apinie; medwendweneeɛ, na me honhom tɔɔ piti.
I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. (Selah)
4 Woamma mʼani ankum; amanehunu dodoɔ enti, mantumi ankasa.
Thou holdest my eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 Medwenee nna a atwam no ho, teteete mfeɛ no ho;
I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6 mekaee me nnwom a na meto no anadwo. Mʼakoma dwenee ho na me honhom bisaa sɛ:
I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with my own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.
7 “Enti, Awurade bɛpo yɛn daa? Ɔrenhunu yɛn mmɔbɔ bio anaa?
Will the LORD cast off for ever? and will he be favorable no more?
8 Nʼadɔeɛ a ɛnsa da atu ayera koraa anaa? Na ne bɔhyɛ no, amma mu koraa anaa?
Is his mercy wholly gone for ever? doth [his] promise fail for evermore?
9 Onyankopɔn werɛ afiri sɛ ɔbɛyɛ mmɔborɔhunufoɔ anaa? Abufuo enti ne yam nhyehye no bio anaa?”
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? (Selah)
10 Afei, medwenee sɛ, “Onyankopɔn Ɔsorosoroni, deɛ ɛhyɛ me kra so ne sɛ, wommfa wo tete nsa nifa no mmoa yɛn bio.”
And I said, This [is] my infirmity: [but I will remember] the years of the right hand of the Most High.
11 Mɛkae nneɛma a Awurade ayɛ; aane, mɛkae wʼanwanwadeɛ a woyɛɛ tete no.
I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
12 Mɛdwene wo nnwuma nyinaa ho na masusu wo nneyɛɛ akɛseɛ nyinaa ho.
I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
13 Ao Onyankopɔn, wʼakwan yɛ kronn. Onyame bɛn na ɔso sɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn?
Thy way, O God, [is] in the sanctuary: who [is so] great a God as [our] God!
14 Wone Onyankopɔn a woyɛ anwanwadeɛ; wokyerɛ wo tumi wɔ aman mu.
Thou [art] the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.
15 Wode wo tumi nsa no gyee wo nkurɔfoɔ, Yakob ne Yosef asefoɔ no.
Thou hast with [thy] arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
16 Ao Onyankopɔn, nsuo no hunuu wo, nsuo no hunuu wo na wɔpopoeɛ; ebunu no mpo ho wosoeɛ.
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were disturbed.
17 Omununkum tɔɔ nsuo, aprannaa gyegyee wɔ soro; na wo bɛmma twaa ogya dii akɔneaba.
The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thy arrows also went abroad.
18 Wʼaprannaa boboom wɔ twahoframa no mu, wʼanyinam hyerɛn ewiase; asase popoeɛ na ɛwosoeɛ.
The voice of thy thunder [was] in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.
19 Wode wo kwan faa ɛpo mu, wode faa nsuo kɛseɛ mu, nanso wɔanhunu wʼanammɔn.
Thy way [is] in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
20 Wonam Mose ne Aaron so dii wo nkurɔfoɔ anim sɛ nnwankuo.
Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
