Psalms 103

1 By David. Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!

Dawid de. Me kra, kamfo Awurade; na me mu ade nyinaa nkamfo ne din kronkron no.

2 Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits,

Me kra, kamfo Awurade, na mma wo werɛ mmfi ne nneyɛe pa nyinaa,

3 who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases,

ɔno na ɔde wo mfomso nyinaa kyɛ wo na ɔsa wo nyarewa nyinaa,

4 who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies,

ogye wo nkwa fi ɔda mu, na ɔde adɔe ne mmɔborɔhunu bɔ wo abotiri,

5 who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

ɔde nnepa ma wo sɛ wʼapɛde, na wo mmerantebere yɛ foforo sɛ ɔkɔre.

6 Yahweh executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.

Awurade yɛ adetrenee, na obu wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so nyinaa atɛntrenee.

7 He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.

Ɔkyerɛɛ Mose nʼakwan, na ɔmaa Israelfo huu ne nneyɛe.

8 Yahweh is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.

Mmɔborɔhunufo ne ɔdomfo ne Awurade, ne bo kyɛ fuw na nʼadɔe dɔɔso.

9 He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.

Ɔrenkɔ so mmɔ sobo, na ɔrennya yɛn ho menasepɔw nkosi daa;

10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.

Ɔnhwɛ yɛn bɔne ne yɛn nni sɛnea ɛfata na ontua yɛn nnebɔne so ka sɛnea ɛte.

11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.

Na sɛnea ɔsoro ne asase ntam ware no, saa ara na nʼadɔe so wɔ wɔn a wosuro no no so.

12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

Sɛnea apuei ne atɔe ntam ware no, saa ara na wama yɛn ne yɛn mmarato ntam kwan aware.

13 Like a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.

Sɛnea agya yam hyehyew no wɔ ne mma ho no, saa ara na Awurade yam hyehye no ma wɔn a wosuro no no;

14 For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.

na onim sɛnea wɔyɛɛ yɛn, ɔkae se yɛyɛ mfutuma.

15 As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

Ɔdesani de, ne nna te sɛ sare, ɔyɛ frɔmfrɔm sɛ nwura mu nhwiren;

16 For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.

sɛ mframa bɔ fa ne so a, na onni hɔ, na ne sibea nkae no bio.

17 But Yahweh’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children,

Nanso efi mmeresanten kosi nnasanten Awurade adɔe wɔ wɔn a wosuro no so, na ne trenee wɔ wɔn mma mma so,

18 to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.

wɔn a wodi nʼapam no so na wɔkae di ne mmara so.

19 Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

Awurade asi nʼahengua wɔ ɔsoro, na nʼahenni di ade nyinaa so.

20 Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.

Monkamfo Awurade, mo a moyɛ nʼabɔfo, mo atumfo a moyɛ nʼahyɛde, mo a mutie nʼasɛm.

21 Praise Yahweh, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.

Monkamfo Awurade, ɔsoro asafo nyinaa, nʼasomfo a moyɛ nʼapɛde.

22 Praise Yahweh, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise Yahweh, my soul!

Monkamfo Awurade, ne nnwuma nyinaa; nea ɛwɔ nʼahenni mu nyinaa. Me kra, kamfo Awurade!
