< Psalms 148 >

1 Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from heaven; praise him in the heights above!
Monkamfo Awurade! Monkamfo Awurade mfi ɔsorosoro, monkamfo no wɔ ɔsoro sorɔnsorɔmmea.
2 Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his heavenly armies!
Nʼabɔfo nyinaa, monkamfo no, ne ɔsoro asafo nyinaa, monkamfo no.
3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
Owia ne ɔsram, monkamfo no, nsoromma a ɛhyerɛn nyinaa, monkamfo no.
4 Praise him, highest heavens, and the waters above the heavens!
Monkamfo no, ɔsoro mu soro ne mo nsu a mowɔ ɔsoro atifi.
5 Let them all praise the Lord and his nature, for he gave the order and they were created.
Momma wɔn nyinaa nkamfo Awurade din, efisɛ ɔno na ɔhyɛ ma wɔbɔɔ wɔn.
6 He placed them in their positions forever and ever; he established a law that will never end.
Ɔde wɔn sisii hɔ afebɔɔ; na ɔmaa ɔhyɛ nsɛm bi a ɛrentwa mu da.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, and creatures from all the depths of the seas,
Monkamfo Awurade mfi asase so, mo po kɛse mu abɔde ne po bun nyinaa,
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, and stormy wind—everything that does as he commands.
anyinam ne mparuwbo, sukyerɛmma ne omununkum, ahum a moyɛ nʼapɛde,
9 Mountains and all the hills, fruit trees and all the trees of the forest,
mo mmepɔw ne nkoko nyinaa, nnua a ɛsow aba ne sida nyinaa,
10 wild animals and all livestock, crawling animals and wild birds,
nwura mu mmoa ne anantwi, abɔde nketewa ne nnomaa a wotu,
11 earthly kings and all peoples, leaders and rulers of the world,
asase ne amanaman nyinaa so ahemfo, mo mmapɔmma ne asase sodifo nyinaa,
12 young men and women, old people and children—
mmerante ne mmabaa, mmasiriwa ne mmofra nso.
13 Let them all praise the Lord, for his reputation is unequalled; his glory is above anything on earth or in heaven.
Ma wɔnkamfo Awurade din, na ne din so sen din biara; nʼanuonyam korɔn wɔ asase ne ɔsoro so.
14 He has given his people a source of strength, bringing praise to his faithful followers, the people of Israel who are dear to him. Praise the Lord!
Wapagyaw mmɛn bi ama ne nkurɔfo, nʼahotewfo nyinaa nkamfo; Israelfo, nnipa a wɔda ne koma so no nkamfo. Monkamfo Awurade.
