1 Asaf dwom. Ao me nkurɔfoɔ, montie me nkyerɛkyerɛ; monyɛ aso mma mʼanomu nsɛm.
The lernyng of Asaph. Mi puple, perseyue ye my lawe; bowe youre eere in to the wordis of my mouth.
2 Mɛkasa wɔ abɛbuo mu, mɛka ahintasɛm, teteete nneɛma no,
I schal opene my mouth in parablis; Y schal speke perfite resouns fro the bigynnyng.
3 nneɛma a yɛate na yɛahunu; nneɛma a yɛn agyanom aka ho asɛm akyerɛ yɛn.
Hou grete thingis han we herd, aud we han knowe tho; and oure fadris. telden to vs.
4 Yɛremfa nkame wɔn mma; yɛbɛka akyerɛ nkyirimma; Awurade nneyɛɛ a ɛfata nkamfo no, ne tumi ne anwanwadeɛ a wayɛ no.
Tho ben not hid fro the sones of hem; in anothir generacioun. And thei telden the heriyngis of the Lord, and the vertues of hym; and hise merueilis, whyche he dide.
5 Ɔyɛɛ ahyɛdeɛ maa Yakob na ɔyɛɛ mmara wɔ Israel, deɛ ɔhyɛɛ yɛn nananom sɛ wɔnkyerɛ wɔn mma,
And he reiside witnessyng in Jacob; and he settide lawe in Israel. Hou grete thingis comaundide he to oure fadris, to make tho knowun to her sones;
6 sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, nkyirimma bɛsua mpo mmɔfra a wɔnnya nwoo wɔn, na wɔn nso akyerɛkyerɛ wɔn mma.
that another generacioun knowe. Sones, that schulen be born, and schulen rise vp; schulen telle out to her sones.
7 Afei wɔde wɔn ho bɛto Onyankopɔn so, na wɔn werɛ remfiri ne nneyɛɛ, na wɔbɛdi nʼahyɛdeɛ so.
That thei sette her hope in God, and foryete not the werkis of God; and that thei seke hise comaundementis.
8 Wɔrenyɛ sɛ wɔn nananom, a na wɔyɛ asoɔdenfoɔ ne atuatefoɔ, wɔn a wɔn akoma mu wɔnni Onyankopɔn nokorɛ na woyɛ honhom mu atorofoɔ ma noɔ no.
Lest thei be maad a schrewid generacioun; and terrynge to wraththe, as the fadris of hem. A generacioun that dresside not his herte; and his spirit was not bileued with God.
9 Ɛwom sɛ na Efraim mmarima kurakura agyan, nanso ɔko da no, wɔdwaneeɛ;
The sones of Effraym, bendinge a bouwe and sendynge arowis; weren turned in the dai of batel.
10 Wɔanni Onyankopɔn apam no so wɔampɛ sɛ wɔdi ne mmara no so.
Thei kepten not the testament of God; and thei nolden go in his lawe.
11 Wɔn werɛ firii deɛ wayɛ, anwanwadeɛ a wayɛ akyerɛ wɔn no.
And thei foryaten hise benefices; and hise merueils, whiche he schewide to hem.
12 Ɔyɛɛ anwanwadeɛ wɔ wɔn nananom anim wɔ Soan mantam a ɛwɔ Misraim asase so.
He dide merueils bifore the fadris of hem in the loond of Egipt; in the feeld of Taphneos.
13 Ɔkyɛɛ ɛpo mu na ɔde wɔn faa mu. Ɔmaa nsuo no gyinaa sɛ afasuo.
He brak the see, and ledde hem thorou; and he ordeynede the watris as in a bouge.
14 Ɔde omununkum dii wɔn anim awia na ɔde ogyadum dii wɔn anim anadwo nyinaa.
And he ledde hem forth in a cloude of the dai; and al niyt in the liytnyng of fier.
15 Ɔpaee ɔbotan mu wɔ ɛserɛ so, na ɔmaa wɔn nsuo a ɛdɔɔso sɛ ɛpo;
He brak a stoon in deseert; and he yaf watir to hem as in a myche depthe.
16 Ɔmaa asutire firii abotan mu na ɔmaa nsuo tenee sɛ nsubɔntene.
And he ledde watir out of the stoon; and he ledde forth watris as floodis.
17 Nanso, wɔkɔɔ so yɛɛ bɔne tiaa no, wɔsɔre tiaa Ɔsorosoroni no wɔ ɛserɛ no so.
And thei `leiden to yit to do synne ayens hym; thei excitiden hiye God in to ire, in a place with out water.
18 Wɔboapa sɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛeɛ; wɔbisaa aduane a wɔpɛ.
And thei temptiden God in her hertis; that thei axiden meetis to her lyues.
19 Wɔkasa tiaa Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Onyankopɔn bɛtumi ato ɛpono wɔ ɛserɛ so anaa?
And thei spaken yuel of God; thei seiden, Whether God may make redi a bord in desert?
20 Ɔde adeɛ bɔɔ ɔbotan mu no, nsuo to firi mu baeɛ, na nsuwa bebree tenee hɔ. Na ɔbɛtumi ama yɛn aduane nso? Ɔbɛtumi ama ne nkurɔfoɔ ɛnam anaa?”
For he smoot a stoon, and watris flowiden; and streemys yeden out in aboundaunce. Whether also he may yyue breed; ether make redi a bord to his puple?
21 Ɛberɛ a Awurade tee deɛ wɔreka no, ne bo fuu yie; ne ogya bɛguu Yakob so, na nʼabufuhyeɛ sɔre tiaa Israel,
Therfor the Lord herde, and delaiede; and fier was kindelid in Jacob, and the ire of God stiede on Israel.
22 ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔnni Onyankopɔn mu gyidie anaasɛ ne nkwagyeɛ mu ahotosoɔ.
For thei bileueden not in God; nether hopiden in his heelthe.
23 Nanso, ɔkasa kyerɛɛ ɔsoro ɔhyɛ so; na ɔbuee ɔsorosoro apono.
And he comaundide to the cloudis aboue; and he openyde the yatis of heuene.
24 Ɔtɔɔ mana firi soro maa nnipa no sɛ wonni, ɔmaa wɔn ɔsoro aduane.
And he reynede to hem manna for to eete; and he yaf to hem breed of heuene.
25 Nnipa dii abɔfoɔ aduane; ɔmaa wɔn aduane a wɔbɛtumi adi nyinaa.
Man eet the breed of aungels; he sent to hem meetis in aboundance.
26 Ɔmaa apueeɛ mframa bɔ firii sorosoro, na ɔde ne tumi bɔɔ atɔeɛ mframa.
He turnede ouere the south wynde fro heuene; and he brouyte in bi his vertu the weste wynde.
27 Ɔtoo ɛnam sɛ mfuturo guu wɔn so, nnomaa a wɔtu bebree sɛ mpoano anwea.
And he reynede fleischis as dust on hem; and `he reinede volatils fethered, as the grauel of the see.
28 Ɔma wɔbaa fam kɔɔ wɔn atenaeɛ, ne wɔn ntomadan ho nyinaa.
And tho felden doun in the myddis of her castels; aboute the tabernaclis of hem.
29 Wɔdidi maa aduane no boroo wɔn so ɛfiri sɛ ɔmaa wɔn deɛ wɔhwehwɛ.
And thei eeten, and weren fillid greetli, and he brouyte her desire to hem;
30 Nanso ansa na wɔbɛfiri aduane a wɔhwehwɛeɛ no ho, ɛberɛ a ɛhyehyɛ wɔn anomu mpo no,
thei weren not defraudid of her desier. Yit her metis weren in her mouth;
31 Onyankopɔn abufuo sɔree wɔn so; ɔkum ahoɔdenfoɔ a wɔwɔ wɔn mu twitwaa Israel mmeranteɛ guiɛ.
and the ire of God stiede on hem. And he killide the fatte men of hem; and he lettide the chosene men of Israel.
32 Yeinom nyinaa akyi, wɔkɔɔ so yɛɛ bɔne; nʼanwanwadeɛ akyi no, wɔannye anni.
In alle these thingis thei synneden yit; and bileuede not in the merueils of God.
33 Enti, ɔtwaa wɔn nna so te sɛ ahuro yɛɛ wɔn mfeɛ awieeɛ huhuuhu.
And the daies of hem failiden in vanytee; and the yeeris of hem faileden with haste.
34 Ɛberɛ biara a Onyankopɔn bɛkum wɔn no, wɔhwehwɛɛ no, na wɔpere wɔn ho sane baa ne nkyɛn.
Whanne he killide hem, thei souyten hym; and turneden ayen, and eerli thei camen to hym.
35 Wɔkaee sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ wɔn botan, sɛ Ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn no yɛ wɔn Gyefoɔ.
And thei bithouyten, that God is the helper of hem; and `the hiy God is the ayenbier of hem.
36 Nanso, wɔde wɔn ano bɛdaadaa no, na wɔde wɔn tɛkrɛma twaa atorɔ kyerɛɛ no;
And thei loueden hym in her mouth; and with her tunge thei lieden to hym.
37 wɔn akoma anni no nokorɛ, na wɔanni nʼapam no so.
Forsothe the herte of hem was not riytful with hym; nethir thei weren had feithful in his testament.
38 Nanso na ɔyɛ ahummɔborɔ; ɔde wɔn amumuyɛ kyɛɛ wɔn a wansɛe wɔn. Mpɛn bebree ɔtwentwɛnee nʼabufuo so na wanhwie nʼabufuhyeɛ nyinaa.
But he is merciful, and he schal be maad merciful to the synnes of hem; and he schal not destrie hem. And he dide greetli, to turne awei his yre; and he kyndelide not al his ire.
39 Ɔkaee sɛ wɔyɛ ɔhonam ara kwa, mframa bi a ɛbɔ twam na ɛnsane nʼakyi.
And he bithouyte, that thei ben fleische; a spirit goynge, and not turnynge ayen.
40 Mpɛn ahe na wɔansɔre antia no wɔ ɛserɛ no so hɔ, na mpɛn ahe na wɔamma ne werɛ anho wɔ asase wesee no so?
Hou oft maden thei hym wrooth in desert; thei stireden hym in to ire in a place with out watir.
41 Wɔsɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛeɛ ɛberɛ biara; na wɔyii Israel Ɔkronkronni no abufuo.
And thei weren turned, and temptiden God; and thei wraththiden the hooli of Israel.
42 Wɔn werɛ firii ne tumi no, ɛda a ɔgyee wɔn firii wɔn nhyɛsofoɔ nsam no,
Thei bithouyten not on his hond; in the dai in the which he ayen bouyte hem fro the hond of the trobler.
43 ɛda a ɔyɛɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ nwanwasoɔ wɔ Misraim no ne nʼanwanwadeɛ wɔ Soan mantam mu no.
As he settide hise signes in Egipt; and hise grete wondris in the feeld of Taphneos.
44 Ɔmaa wɔn nsubɔntene danee mogya; wɔantumi annom wɔn asutene mu nsuo.
And he turnede the flodis of hem and the reynes of hem in to blood; that thei schulden not drynke.
45 Ɔmaa nwansenadɔm baa wɔn so bɛhaa wɔn na mponkyerɛne nso bɛsɛee wɔn asase.
He sente a fleisch flie in to hem, and it eet hem; and he sente a paddok, and it loste hem.
46 Ɔmaa mmɛbɛ bɛdii wɔn mfuo so aduane na ɔde wɔn mfudeɛ nso maa ntutummɛ.
And he yaf the fruytis of hem to rust; and he yaf the trauels of hem to locustis.
47 Ɔde asukɔtweaa sɛee wɔn bobe na ɔde nsukyeneeɛ sɛee wɔn ankye nnua.
And he killide the vynes of hem bi hail; and the moore trees of hem bi a frost.
48 Ɔde sukyerɛmma kumm wɔn anantwie ɔde anyinam kumm wɔn nyɛmmoa.
And he bitook the beestis of hem to hail; and the possessioun of hem to fier.
49 Ɔhwiee nʼabufuhyeɛ guu wɔn so, abufuo, anibereɛ ne ahohia; abɔfoɔ asɛefoɔ kuo no.
He sente in to hem the ire of his indignacioun; indignacioun, and ire, and tribulacioun, sendingis in bi iuel aungels.
50 Ɔbɔɔ ɛkwan maa nʼabufuo; na wamfa wɔn nkwa ankyɛre wɔn mmom ɔde wɔn maa ɔyaredɔm.
He made weie to the path of his ire, and he sparide not fro the deth of her lyues; and he closide togidere in deth the beestis of hem.
51 Ɔkunkumm Misraimfoɔ mmakan nyinaa, Ham ntomadan mu nnipa mu abakan.
And he smoot al the first gendrid thing in the lond of Egipt; the first fruytis of alle the trauel of hem in the tabernaclis of Cham.
52 Nanso ɔyii ne nkurɔfoɔ firii mu sɛ nnwankuo; ɔdii wɔn anim sɛ nnwan wɔ ɛserɛ no so.
And he took awei his puple as scheep; and he ledde hem forth as a flok in desert.
53 Ɔdii wɔn anim dwoodwoo, enti wɔansuro; nanso wɔn atamfoɔ deɛ, ɛpo asorɔkye bu faa wɔn so.
And he ledde hem forth in hope, and thei dredden not; and the see hilide the enemyes of hem.
54 Sei na ɔyɛ de wɔn baa nʼasase kronkron no ahyeɛ so, bepɔ asase a ɔde ne nsa nifa gyeeɛ no.
And he brouyte hem in to the hil of his halewyng; in to the hil which his riythond gat. And he castide out hethene men fro the face of hem; and bi lot he departide to hem the lond in a cord of delyng.
55 Ɔpamoo amanaman a wɔwɔ wɔn anim no na ɔkyekyɛɛ wɔn nsase no mu maa wɔn sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ; ɔbɔɔ Israel mmusuakuo no atenaseɛ wɔ wɔn afie mu.
And he made the lynagis of Israel to dwelle in the tabernaclis of hem.
56 Nanso wɔsɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛeɛ na wɔsɔre tiaa Ɔsorosoroni no; na wɔanni ne mmara so.
And thei temptiden, and wraththiden heiy God; and thei kepten not hise witnessyngis.
57 Wɔyɛɛ sɛ wɔn agyanom, wɔanni nokorɛ na wɔannya gyidie, ahotosoɔ nni wɔn mu, na wɔte sɛ agyan a asɛe.
And thei turneden awei hem silf, and thei kepten not couenaunt; as her fadris weren turned in to a schrewid bouwe.
58 Wɔde wɔn sorɔnsorɔmmea hyɛɛ no abufuo na wɔn ahoni maa ne ninkuntwe mu yɛɛ den.
Thei stiriden him in to ire in her litle hillis; and thei terriden hym to indignacioun of her grauen ymagis.
59 Onyankopɔn tee wɔn nka no, ne bo fuiɛ; na ɔpoo Israel korakora.

60 Ɔgyaa nʼatenaeɛ a ɛwɔ Silo no hɔ ntomadan a wasi wɔ nnipa mu no.
And he puttide awei the tabernacle of Sylo; his tabernacle where he dwellide among men.

And he bitook the vertu of hem in to caitiftee; and the fairnesse of hem in to the hondis of the enemye.
62 Ɔde ne nkurɔfoɔ maa akofena; ne bo fuu nʼagyapadeɛ yie.
And he closide togidere his puple in swerd; and he dispiside his erytage.
63 Egya hyee wɔn mmeranteɛ kumm wɔn, na wɔn mmabaawa annya ayeforɔhyia dwom anto;

64 Wɔn asɔfoɔ wuwuu akofena ano, na wɔn akunafoɔ antumi ansu.
The prestis of hem fellen doun bi swerd; and the widewis of hem weren not biwept.
65 Afei Awurade sɔree sɛdeɛ ɔfiri nna mu no, sɛdeɛ ɔbarima a waboro nsã nyane firi nnahɔɔ mu no.
And the Lord was reisid, as slepynge; as miyti greetli fillid of wiyn.
66 Ɔbobɔɔ nʼatamfoɔ ma wɔdwane kɔɔ wɔn akyi; ɔhyɛɛ wɔn aniwuo afebɔɔ.
And he smoot hise enemyes on the hynderere partis; he yaf to hem euerlastyng schenschipe.
67 Afei ɔpoo Yosef ntomadan no, na wamfa Efraim abusuakuo no nso;
And he puttide awei the tabernacle of Joseph; and he chees not the lynage of Effraym.
68 Na mmom, ɔfaa Yuda abusuakuo no, Bepɔ Sion a ɔdɔ noɔ no.

And he fedde hem in the innocens of his herte; and he ledde hem forth in the vndurstondyngis of his hondis.
