Nnwom 104
1 Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade! Ao Awurade me Onyankopɔn, woyɛ ɔkɛseɛ! Wɔafira tumi ne animuonyam.
Mi soule, blesse thou the Lord; my Lord God, thou art magnyfied greetli. Thou hast clothid knouleching and fairnesse; and thou art clothid with liyt,
2 Ɔde hann akata ne ho sɛ atadeɛ; ɔtrɛ ɔsoro mu te sɛ ntomadan,
as with a cloth. And thou stretchist forth heuene as a skyn;
3 na ɔde ne mpia mpunan sisi nsuo so. Ɔde omununkum yɛ ne teaseɛnam na ɔde nante mframa ntaban so.
and thou hilist with watris the hiyer partis therof. Which settist a cloude thi stiyng; which goest on the fetheris of wyndis.
4 Ɔsoma nʼabɔfoɔ sɛ mframa, na ɔsoma nʼasomfoɔ sɛ ogyadɛreɛ.
Which makist spiritis thin aungels; and thi mynystris brennynge fier.
5 Ɔde asase asi ne fapem so na ɛrenhinhim da.
Which hast foundid the erthe on his stablenesse; it schal not be bowid in to the world of world.
6 Wode ebunu kataa so sɛ atadeɛ na nsuo gyinaa mmepɔ no so.
The depthe of watris as a cloth is the clothing therof; watris schulen stonde on hillis.
7 Nanso wʼanimka maa nsuo no dwaneeɛ, wʼaprannaa nnyegyeeɛ ma wɔdwaneeɛ;
Tho schulen fle fro thi blamyng; men schulen be aferd of the vois of thi thundur.
8 Wɔtenetenee faa mmepɔ so, kɔɔ mmɔnhwa mu tɔnn, kɔguu baabi a wode ama wɔn no.
Hillis stien vp, and feeldis goen doun; in to the place which thou hast foundid to tho.
9 Wotoo ɔhyeɛ a wɔrentumi ntra; na wɔammɛkata asase so bio.
Thou hast set a terme, which tho schulen not passe; nether tho schulen be turned, for to hile the erthe.
10 Ɔma nsuwa tene fa abɔn mu; ɛtene fa mmepɔ ntam.
And thou sendist out wellis in grete valeis; watris schulen passe bitwix the myddil of hillis.
11 Ɔma wiram mmoa nyinaa nsuo nom; ɔma afunumu nsuo de kum wɔn sukɔm.
Alle the beestis of the feeld schulen drynke; wielde assis schulen abide in her thirst.
12 Ewiem nnomaa nwene wɔn pirebuo wɔ nsuo no ho; na wɔto nnwom wɔ nnua no mman so.
Briddis of the eir schulen dwelle on tho; fro the myddis of stoonys thei schulen yyue voices.
13 Ɔfiri ne soro mpia mu tɔ nsuo gugu mmepɔ so; Awurade nnwuma so aba mee asase.
And thou moistist hillis of her hiyer thingis; the erthe schal be fillid of the fruyt of thi werkis.
14 Ɔma ɛserɛ fifiri ma anantwie, na ɔbɔɔ nnua maa onipa sɛ ɔnnua na ɛmma aduane mfiri asase mu:
And thou bringist forth hei to beestis; and eerbe to the seruyce of men. That thou bringe forth breed of the erthe;
15 na onipa anya nsã ama nʼakoma atɔ ne yam, na onipa anya ngo ama nʼanim atɔ so, na aduane nso akura onipa akoma.
and that wiyn make glad the herte of men. That he make glad the face with oile; and that breed make stidefast the herte of man.
16 Wɔgugu Awurade nnua no so yie, Lebanon ntweneduro a ɔduaeɛ no.
The trees of the feeld schulen be fillid, and the cedris of the Liban, whiche he plauntide;
17 Ɛso na nnomaa yɛ wɔn mpirebuo na asukɔnkɔn nso yɛ nʼatenaeɛ wɔ pepeaa nnua no mu.
sparewis schulen make nest there. The hous of the gerfaukun is the leeder of tho;
18 Mmepɔ atentene no yɛ wiram mpɔnkye dea; na abotan yɛ dwanekɔbea ma amoakua.
hiye hillis ben refute to hertis; a stoon is refutt to irchouns.
19 Ɔsrane kyerɛ ɛberɛ nkyekyɛmu, na owia nim ɛberɛ a ɔkɔtɔ.
He made the moone in to tymes; the sunne knewe his goyng doun.
20 Wode esum ba ma ɛyɛ adesaeɛ na kwaeɛ mu mmoa nyinaa kɔ ahayɔ.
Thou hast set derknessis, and nyyt is maad; alle beestis of the wode schulen go ther ynne.
21 Gyata bobom pɛ wɔn ahaboa wɔhwehwɛ wɔn aduane firi Onyankopɔn hɔ.
Liouns whelpis rorynge for to rauysche; and to seke of God meete to hem silf.
22 Owia pue ma wɔsane wɔn akyi; wɔsane kɔdeda wɔn atuo mu.
The sunne is risun, and tho ben gaderid togidere; and tho schulen be set in her couchis.
23 Afei, onipa kɔ nʼadwuma so kɔyɛ adwuma ara kɔsi anwummerɛ.
A man schal go out to his werk; and to his worching, til to the euentid.
24 Ao Awurade, wo nnwuma dɔɔso! Nyansa mu na woyɛɛ ne nyinaa; wʼabɔdeɛ ahyɛ asase so ma.
Lord, thi werkis ben magnefiede ful myche, thou hast maad alle thingis in wisdom; the erthe is fillid with thi possessioun.
25 Ɛpo na ɛda hɔ tɛtrɛɛ hahanaa yi, a abɔdeɛ bebree a ɛnni ano, akɛseɛ ne nketewa ahyɛ no ma.
This see is greet and large to hondis; there ben crepinge beestis, of which is noon noumbre. Litil beestis with grete;
26 Ɛso na ahyɛn di akɔneaba, na dɛnkyɛmmirampɔn a woyɛɛ no di agorɔ.
schippis schulen passe there. This dragoun which thou hast formyd; for to scorne hym.
27 Wɔn nyinaa hwɛ wo kwan sɛ wobɛma wɔn wɔn aduane wɔ ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ mu.
Alle thingis abiden of thee; that thou yyue to hem meete in tyme.
28 Wodema wɔn a, wɔtase; wobue wo nsam a, nnepa mee wɔn.
Whanne thou schalt yyue to hem, thei schulen gadere; whanne thou schalt opene thin hond, alle thingis schulen be fillid with goodnesse.
29 Wode wʼanim hinta wɔn a, wɔbɔ hu; sɛ wogye wɔn ahomeɛ a, wɔwuwu na wɔsane kɔ mfuturo mu.
But whanne thou schalt turne awey the face, thei schulen be disturblid; thou schalt take awei the spirit of them, and thei schulen faile; and thei schulen turne ayen in to her dust.
30 Sɛ wode wo Honhom no ma wɔn a na wɔabɔ wɔn, na woyɛ asase ani foforɔ.
Sende out thi spirit, and thei schulen be formed of the newe; and thou schalt renule the face of the erthe.
31 Ma Awurade animuonyam ntena hɔ daa; ma Awurade ani nnye ne nnwuma ho,
The glorie of the Lord be in to the world; the Lord schal be glad in hise werkis.
32 deɛ ɔhwɛ asase na ɛwosoɔ, na ɔde ne nsa ka mmepɔ a wisie firi mu ba.
Which biholdith the erthe, and makith it to tremble; which touchith hillis, and tho smoken.
33 Mɛto dwom ama Awurade me nkwa nna nyinaa; sɛ mete ase yi, mɛto ayɛyie dwom ama me Onyankopɔn.
I schal singe to the Lord in my lijf; Y schal seie salm to my God, as longe as Y am.
34 Ɔmma mʼakoma mu mpaeɛbɔ nsɔ nʼani ɛberɛ a meregye mʼani wɔ Awurade mu yi.
Mi speche be myrie to him; forsothe Y schal delite in the Lord.
35 Ma nnebɔneyɛfoɔ nyera wɔ asase so; na amumuyɛfoɔ ase nhye. Ao me ɔkra, kamfo Awurade. Kamfo Awurade.
Synneris faile fro the erthe, and wickid men faile, so that thei be not; my soule, blesse thou the Lord.
