Psalms 66
1 For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Dawid dwom. Asase nyinaa momfa ahosɛpɛw nteɛ mu mma Onyankopɔn!
2 Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise!
Monto ne din anuonyamhyɛ ho dwom; momma nʼayeyi nyɛ anuonyamhyɛ!
3 Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.
Munse Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Wo nneyɛe yɛ nwonwa dodo! Wo tumi so mmoroso a wʼatamfo nyinaa de osuro kotow wʼanim.
4 All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name.” (Selah)
Asase nyinaa kotow wo; wɔto ayeyi dwom ma wo, wɔto dwom kamfo wo din.”
5 Come, and see God’s deeds— awesome work on behalf of the children of men.
Mommra mmɛhwɛ nea Onyankopɔn ayɛ; anwonwade a wayɛ wɔ nnipa mu.
6 He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.
Ɔmaa po yɛɛ asase kesee; wɔnantew twaa nsu no mommra mma yenni ahurusi wɔ no mu.
7 He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Don’t let the rebellious rise up against him. (Selah)
Ɔde ne tumi di hene daa daa, na ɔde nʼani nso hwɛ aman so. Mma atuatewfo nsɔre ntia no.
8 Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,
Aman nyinaa, munhyira yɛn Nyankopɔn, momma wɔnte mo nkamfo no nnyigyei;
9 who preserves our life among the living, and doesn’t allow our feet to be moved.
wahwɛ yɛn nkwa so na wamma yɛn anan anwatiri.
10 For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.
Na wo, Onyankopɔn, wosɔɔ yɛn hwɛe; na wonan yɛn sɛ dwetɛ.
11 You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.
Wode yɛn koguu afiase na wode nneɛma a ɛyɛ duru too yɛn akyi.
12 You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you brought us to the place of abundance.
Womaa yɛn atamfo twiw faa yɛn so; yɛfaa ogya ne nsu mu, nanso wode yɛn baa faako a nnepa abu so.
13 I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,
Mede ɔhyew afɔre bɛba wʼasɔredan mu na madi bɔ a mahyɛ wo no so,
14 which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.
bɔ a mʼanofafa hyɛe, na mʼano kaa bere a na mewɔ ɔhaw mu no.
15 I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. (Selah)
Mede mmoa a wɔadɔ srade bɛbɔ afɔre ama wo; adwennini ayɛyɛde; mede anantwinini ne mpapo bɛbɔ afɔre.
16 Come and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.
Mommra mmetie, mo a musuro Onyankopɔn nyinaa; momma menka nea wayɛ ama me nkyerɛ mo.
17 I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.
Mede mʼano su frɛɛ no; na me tɛkrɛma yii no ayɛ.
18 If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord wouldn’t have listened.
Sɛ mede bɔne hyɛɛ me koma mu a, anka Awurade antie me.
19 But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.
Nanso nokware, Onyankopɔn atie me, wate me mpaebɔ.
20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me.
Nhyira nka Onyankopɔn, a wampo me mpaebɔ na wanyi nʼadɔe amfi me so.
