Psalms 97
1 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad.
Awurade di hene, ma asase ani nnye; ma akyirikyiri mpoano ahorow no nsɛpɛw wɔn ho.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
Omununkum ne sum kabii atwa no ho ahyia; trenee ne atɛntrenee yɛ nʼahengua no fapem.
3 A fire goeth before Him, and burneth up His adversaries round about.
Ogya di nʼanim na ɛhyew nʼatamfo wɔ afanan nyinaa.
4 His lightnings lighted up the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
Nʼanyinam hyerɛn wiase; asase hu na ne ho popo.
5 The mountains melted like wax 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 heavens declared His righteousness, and all the peoples saw His glory.
Ɔsoro pae mu ka ne trenee kyerɛ na aman nyinaa hu nʼanuonyam.
7 Ashamed be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of things of nought; bow down to Him, all ye gods.
Ahonisomfo nyinaa anim agu ase, wɔn a wɔde abosomhuhuw hoahoa wɔn ho no, anyame nyinaa monsɔre no.
8 Zion heard and was glad, and the daughters of Judah rejoiced; because of Thy judgments, 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 above all the earth; Thou art exalted far above all gods.
Wo, Awurade ne Ɔsorosoroni wɔ asase so nyinaa; wɔama wo so pa ara wɔ anyame nyinaa mu.
10 O ye that love the LORD, hate evil; He preserveth the souls of His saints; He delivered them out of 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 sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Hann hyerɛn wɔ atreneefo so na anigye ba wɔn a wɔn koma mu tew no so.
12 Be glad in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks to His holy name.
Momma mo ani nnye Awurade mu, mo a moyɛ atreneefo, na monkamfo ne din kronkron no.
