< Psalms 97 >
1 The Lord reigneth: let the earth reioyce: let the multitude of the yles be glad.
Awurade di hene, ma asase ani nnye; ma akyirikyiri mpoano ahorow no nsɛpɛw wɔn ho.
2 Cloudes and darkenes are round about him: righteousnesse and iudgement are the foundation of his throne.
Omununkum ne sum kabii atwa no ho ahyia; trenee ne atɛntrenee yɛ nʼahengua no fapem.
3 There shall goe a fire before him, and burne vp his enemies round about.
Ogya di nʼanim na ɛhyew nʼatamfo wɔ afanan nyinaa.
4 His lightnings gaue light vnto the worlde: the earth sawe it and was afraide.
Nʼanyinam hyerɛn wiase; asase hu na ne ho popo.
5 The mountaines melted like waxe at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Mmepɔw nan sɛ nku wɔ Awurade anim, Awurade a asase nyinaa wɔ no no anim.
6 The heauens declare his righteousnes, and all the people see his glory.
Ɔsoro pae mu ka ne trenee kyerɛ na aman nyinaa hu nʼanuonyam.
7 Confounded be all they that serue grauen images, and that glory in idoles: worship him all ye gods.
Ahonisomfo nyinaa anim agu ase, wɔn a wɔde abosomhuhuw hoahoa wɔn ho no, anyame nyinaa monsɔre no.
8 Zion heard of it, and was glad: and the daughters of Iudah reioyced, because of thy iudgements, O Lord.
Sion te, na ne ho sɛpɛw no na Yuda nkuraa ani gye Awurade, esiane wʼatɛntrenee nti.
9 For thou, Lord, art most High aboue all the earth: thou art much exalted aboue all gods.
Wo, Awurade ne Ɔsorosoroni wɔ asase so nyinaa; wɔama wo so pa ara wɔ anyame nyinaa mu.
10 Ye that loue the Lord, hate euill: he preserueth the soules of his Saints: hee will deliuer them from the hand of the wicked.
Ma wɔn a wɔdɔ Awurade no nkyi bɔne, ɔbɔ ne nkurɔfo a wɔyɛ nokwafo no ho ban na ogye wɔn fi amumɔyɛfo nsam.
11 Light is sowen for the righteous, and ioy for the vpright in heart.
Hann hyerɛn wɔ atreneefo so na anigye ba wɔn a wɔn koma mu tew no so.
12 Reioyce ye righteous in the Lord, and giue thankes for his holy remembrance.
Momma mo ani nnye Awurade mu, mo a moyɛ atreneefo, na monkamfo ne din kronkron no.
