< Psalms 106 >

1 Alleluia. Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Monkamfo Awurade! Monna Awurade ase na ɔyɛ; na nʼadɔeɛ wɔ hɔ daa.
2 Who shall declare the powers of the Lord? who shall set forth all his praises?
Hwan na ɔbɛtumi aka nneɛma akɛseɛ a Awurade ayɛ? Anaasɛ ɔbɛtumi aka ne nkamfo awie?
3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, and do justice at all times.
Nhyira nka wɔn a wɔkɔ so bu atɛntenenee, na daa wɔyɛ deɛ ɛyɛ.
4 Remember us, O Lord, in the favour of thy people: visit us with thy salvation.
Ao Awurade, sɛ wohunu wo nkurɔfoɔ mmɔbɔ a kae me. Sɛ wogye wɔn nkwa a, boa me,
5 That we may see the good of thy chosen, that we may rejoice in the joy of thy nation: that thou mayst be praised with thy inheritance.
na manya wɔn a wapa wɔn no yiedie mu kyɛfa, na manya wo manfoɔ anigyeɛ no mu kyɛfa na me ne wʼagyapadeɛ no abɔ mu de nkamfo ama wo.
6 We have sinned with our fathers: we have acted unjustly, we have wrought iniquity.
Yɛayɛ bɔne sɛdeɛ yɛn nananom yɛeɛ no; yɛayɛ mfomsoɔ na yɛadi atirimuɔdensɛm.
7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies: And they provoked to wrath going up to the sea, even the Red Sea.
Ɛberɛ a yɛn nananom wɔ Misraim no, wɔannwene wo nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ho; wɔankae wʼadɔeɛ bebrebe no, na wɔtee atua wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ho.
8 And he saved them for his own name’s sake: that he might make his power known.
Nanso, ne din enti ɔgyee wɔn nkwa, sɛdeɛ ɔbɛda ne tumi kɛseɛ no adi.
9 And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up: and he led them through the depths, as in a wilderness.
Ɔteaa Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ma ɛwee; ɔde wɔn faa abunu mu te sɛ ɛserɛ so.
10 And he saved them from the hand of them that hated them: and he redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
Ɔgyee wɔn firii ɔtamfoɔ no nsam; deɛ ɔtane wɔn nsam na ɔyii wɔn firiiɛ.
11 And the water covered them that afflicted them: there was not one of them left.
Nsuo kataa wɔn atamfoɔ so; na ɔbaako mpo annya nkwa.
12 And they believed his words: and they sang his praises.
Afei wɔgyee ne bɔhyɛ no diiɛ na wɔtoo nʼayɛyie dwom.
13 They had quickly done, they forgot his works: and they waited not for his counsels.
Nanso, ntɛm so, wɔn werɛ firii deɛ wayɛ na wɔantwɛn nʼagyinatuo.
14 And they coveted their desire in the desert: and they tempted God in the place without water.
Akɔnnɔ bɛhyɛɛ wɔn mu wɔ ɛserɛ so hɔ, na wɔ asase paradada no so, wɔsɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛeɛ,
15 And he gave them their request: and sent fulness into their souls.
enti ɔmaa wɔn deɛ wɔbisaeɛ, nanso, ɔde ɔfɔn yadeɛ baa wɔn so.
16 And they provoked Moses in the camp, Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
Na nsraban mu hɔ wɔn ani beree Mose ne Aaron a Awurade ate ne ho no.
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan: and covered the congregation of Abiron.
Asase mu buee na ɛmenee Datan na ɛsiee Abiram asafo no.
18 And a fire was kindled in their congregation: the flame burned the wicked.
Egya tɔɔ wɔn akyidifoɔ no mu; ogyaframa hyee amumuyɛfoɔ no.
19 They made also a calf in Horeb: and they adored the graven thing.
Wɔyɛɛ nantwie ba wɔ Horeb na wɔkotoo ohoni a wɔde fagudeɛ ayɛ.
20 And they changed their glory into the likeness of a calf that eateth grass.
Wɔsesaa wɔn Animuonyam. Wɔde nantwinini, a ɔwe ɛserɛ nsɛsodeɛ.
21 They forgot God, who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,
Wɔn werɛ firii Onyankopɔn a ɔgyee wɔn nkwa, deɛ ɔyɛɛ nneɛma akɛseɛ wɔ Misraim no,
22 Wondrous works in the land of Cham: terrible things in the Red Sea.
nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɔyɛɛ wɔ Ham asase so ne nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ ho no.
23 And he said that he would destroy them: had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach: To turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them.
Enti ɔkaa sɛ ɔbɛsɛe wɔn, nanso Mose a ɔyɛ deɛ wapa noɔ no sɔre gyinaa Onyankopɔn ne nnipa no ntam; ɔsrɛɛ no, dwodwoo nʼabufuo no ano sɛdeɛ ɔrensɛe wɔn.
24 And they set at nought the desirable land. They believed not his word,
Afei, wɔn ani ansɔ asase fɛfɛ no; na wɔannye ne bɔhyɛ anni.
25 And they murmured in their tents: they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord.
Wɔnwiinwii wɔ wɔn ntomadan mu na wɔannyɛ ɔsetie amma Awurade.
26 And he lifted up his hand over them: to overthrow them in the desert;
Enti ɔmaa ne nsa so kaa ntam kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ ɔbɛma wɔn atotɔ wɔ ɛserɛ no so,
27 And to cast down their seed among the nations, and to scatter them in the countries.
ɔbɛma wɔn asefoɔ atotɔ wɔ amanaman mu na wabɔ wɔn ahwete nsase nyinaa so.
28 They also were initiated to Beelphegor: and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
Wɔde wɔn ho bɔɔ Baal-peor ho na wɔdii afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔde ama anyame a wɔnni nkwa;
29 And they provoked him with their inventions: and destruction was multiplied among them.
wɔde wɔn atirimuɔdensɛm hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo na ɔyaredɔm sii wɔn mu.
30 Then Phinees stood up, and pacified him: and the slaughter ceased.
Na Pinehas sɔre dii agyinamu, na Awurade sii ɔyaredɔm no ano.
31 And it was reputed to him unto justice, to generation and generation for evermore.
Wɔde yei yɛɛ tenenee maa Pinehas wɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a ɛnni awieeɛ a ɛbɛba no mu.
32 They provoked him also at the waters of contradiction: and Moses was afflicted for their sakes:
Meriba nsuo ho nso, wɔhyɛɛ Awurade abufuo, na wɔn enti, ɔhaw baa Mose so,
33 Because they exasperated his spirit. And he distinguished with his lips.
ɛfiri sɛ wɔtee Onyankopɔn Honhom anim atua, na asɛm a wannwene ho firii Mose anomu.
34 They did not destroy the nations of which the Lord spoke unto them.
Wɔansɛe nnipa no sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no,
35 And they were mingled among the heathens, and learned their works:
nanso wɔde wɔn ho frafraa amanaman no yɛɛ nneɛma a wɔyɛ no bi.
36 And served their idols, and it became a stumblingblock to them.
Wɔsomm wɔn ahoni na ɛbɛyɛɛ afidie maa wɔn.
37 And they sacrificed their sons, and their daughters to devils.
Wɔde wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa abosom.
38 And they shed innocent blood: the blood of their sons and of their daughters which they sacrificed to the idols of Chanaan. And the land was polluted with blood,
Wɔkaa mogya a ɛdi bem guiɛ; wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa mogya a wɔde bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Kanaan ahoni no maa asase no ho guu fi.
39 And was defiled with their works: and they went aside after their own inventions.
Wɔde deɛ wɔyɛeɛ no guu wɔn ankasa ho fi; wɔnam deɛ wɔyɛeɛ no so bɔɔ adwaman.
40 And the Lord was exceedingly angry with his people: and he abhorred his inheritance.
Enti, Awurade bo fuu ne nkurɔfoɔ; na ɔkyirii nʼagyapadeɛ.
41 And he delivered them into the hands of the nations: and they that hated them had dominion over them.
Ɔdanee wɔn maa amanaman no, na wɔn atamfoɔ dii wɔn so.
42 And their enemies afflicted them: and they were humbled under their hands:
Wɔn atamfoɔ hyɛɛ wɔn so na wɔkaa wɔn hyɛɛ wɔn tumi ase.
43 Many times did he deliver them. But they provoked him with their counsel: and they were brought low by their iniquities.
Mpɛn bebree, Awurade gyee wɔn, nanso wɔkɔɔ so tee atua na wɔsɛe wɔ wɔn bɔne mu.
44 And he saw when they were in tribulation: and he heard their prayer.
Nanso ɔhunuu wɔn ahohiahia ɛberɛ a wɔsu frɛɛ noɔ no;
45 And he was mindful of his covenant: and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
Wɔn enti, ɔkaee nʼapam no na ɔfirii nʼadɔeɛ kɛseɛ no mu hunuu wɔn mmɔbɔ.
46 And he gave them unto mercies, in the sight of all those that had made them captives.
Ɔmaa sodifoɔ a wɔafa wɔn nnommum no nyaa ahummɔborɔ maa wɔn.
47 Save us, O Lord, our God: and gather us from among nations: That we may give thanks to thy holy name, and may glory in thy praise.
Gye yɛn, Ao Awurade yɛn nkwagyeɛ Onyankopɔn, na boaboa yɛn ano firi amanaman so, na yɛada wo din kronkron no ase, na yɛde nkamfo ahyɛ wo animuonyam.
48 Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say: So be it, so be it.
Ayɛyie nka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ɛmfiri mmerɛsanten nkɔsi nnasanten. Momma nnipa no nyinaa nka sɛ, “Amen!” Monkamfo Awurade.
