Psalms 48

1 A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, in the city of our God, His holy mountain,

Kora mma dwom. Awurade yɛ kɛseɛ na ɔsɛ nkamfo wɔ yɛn Onyankopɔn kuropɔn mu, ne bepɔ kronkron so.

2 Fair in situation, the joy of the whole earth; even mount Zion, the uttermost parts of the north, the city of the great King.

Kuropɔn no ɔsorokɔ yɛ fɛ, ɛyɛ ewiase nyinaa anigyedeɛ. Bepɔ Sion te sɛ Safon sorɔnsorɔmmea, Ɔhene Kɛseɛ no kuropɔn.

3 God in her palaces hath made Himself known for a stronghold.

Onyankopɔn te nʼabankɛsewa mu. Wada ne ho adi sɛ ɔyɛ nʼaban.

4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, they came onward together.

Ɛberɛ a ahemfo yi boaa wɔn ho ano, na wɔtuu ɔsa bɔɔ mu no,

5 They saw, straightway they were amazed; they were affrighted, they hasted away.

wɔhunuu no ma ɛyɛɛ wɔn ahodwirie, na wɔde ehu dwaneeɛ.

6 Trembling took hold of them there, pangs, as of a woman in travail.

Nketenkete kyeree wɔn wɔ hɔ, ɔyea a ɛte sɛ ɔbaa a awoɔ aka no.

7 With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.

Wosɛee wɔn sɛ Tarsis ahyɛn a apueeɛ mframa abɔ adwira wɔn.

8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God — God establish it for ever. (Selah)

Sɛdeɛ yɛate no, saa ara na yɛahunu wɔ Otumfoɔ Awurade kuropɔn no mu, yɛn Onyankopɔn kuropɔn mu; Onyankopɔn ma ɛtim hɔ afebɔɔ.

9 We have thought on Thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of Thy temple.

Wʼasɔredan no mu, Ao Onyankopɔn, na yɛdwene wo dɔ a ɛnsa da no ho,

10 As is Thy name, O God, so is Thy praise unto the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness.

Ao Onyankopɔn, wʼayɛyie duru asase ano te sɛ wo din; tenenee ayɛ wo nsa nifa mu ma.

11 Let mount Zion be glad, let the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of Thy judgments.

Sion bepɔ di ahurisie, Yuda nkuraase no ani gye ɛsiane wʼatemmuo no enti.

12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her; count the towers thereof.

Nante Sion na twa ho hyia, kan nʼabantenten dodoɔ,

13 Mark ye well her ramparts, traverse her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.

dwene nʼafasuo ho yie, hwɛ nʼabankɛsewa no, na woaka ho asɛm akyerɛ nkyirimma.

14 For such is God, our God, for ever and ever; He will guide us eternally.

Saa Onyankopɔn yi yɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn daa daa; mpo ɔbɛyɛ yɛn kwankyerɛfoɔ akɔsi awieeɛ. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ.
