Psalms 97

1 The Lord reigneth: let the earth reioyce: let the multitude of the yles be glad.

Awurade di ɔhene, ma asase ani nnye; ma nsupɔ ahodoɔ nsɛpɛ wɔn ho.

2 Cloudes and darkenes are round about him: righteousnesse and iudgement are the foundation of his throne.

Omununkum ne esum kabii atwa ne ho ahyia; tenenee ne atɛntenenee yɛ nʼahennwa no fapem.

3 There shall goe a fire before him, and burne vp his enemies round about.

Ogya di nʼanim na ɛhye nʼatamfoɔ wɔ afanan nyinaa.

4 His lightnings gaue light vnto the worlde: the earth sawe it and was afraide.

Nʼanyinam hran ewiase; asase ahunu, 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.

Mmepɔ nane 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 tenenee kyerɛ na aman nyinaa hunu nʼanimuonyam.

7 Confounded be all they that serue grauen images, and that glory in idoles: worship him all ye gods.

Ahonisomfoɔ nyinaa anim agu ase, wɔn a wɔde abosomhuhuo 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 sɛpɛ no na Yuda nkuraase ani gye Ao Awurade, ɛsiane wʼatɛntenenee enti.

9 For thou, Lord, art most High aboue all the earth: thou art much exalted aboue all gods.

Wo, Ao 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 nkyiri bɔne, ɔbɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ a wɔyɛ nokwafoɔ no ho ban na ɔgye wɔn firi amumuyɛfoɔ nsam.

11 Light is sowen for the righteous, and ioy for the vpright in heart.

Hann to gu teneneefoɔ so na anigyeɛ ba wɔn a wɔn akoma mu teɛ so.

12 Reioyce ye righteous in the Lord, and giue thankes for his holy remembrance.

Momma mo ani nnye Awurade mu, mo teneneefoɔ nyinaa, na monkamfo ne din kronkron no.
