Psalms 97
1 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad.
Awurade di ɔhene, ma asase ani nnye; ma nsupɔ ahodoɔ nsɛpɛ wɔn ho.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
Omununkum ne esum kabii atwa ne ho ahyia; tenenee ne atɛntenenee yɛ nʼahennwa no fapem.
3 A fire goeth before Him, and burneth up His adversaries round about.
Ogya di nʼanim na ɛhye nʼatamfoɔ wɔ afanan nyinaa.
4 His lightnings lighted up the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
Nʼanyinam hran ewiase; asase ahunu, 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.
Mmepɔ nane 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 tenenee kyerɛ na aman nyinaa hunu nʼanimuonyam.
7 Ashamed be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of things of nought; bow down to Him, all ye gods.
Ahonisomfoɔ nyinaa anim agu ase, wɔn a wɔde abosomhuhuo 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 sɛpɛ no na Yuda nkuraase ani gye Ao Awurade, ɛsiane wʼatɛntenenee enti.
9 For Thou, LORD, art most high above all the earth; Thou art exalted far above all gods.
Wo, Ao 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 nkyiri bɔne, ɔbɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ a wɔyɛ nokwafoɔ no ho ban na ɔgye wɔn firi amumuyɛfoɔ nsam.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Hann to gu teneneefoɔ so na anigyeɛ ba wɔn a wɔn akoma mu teɛ so.
12 Be glad in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks to His holy name.
Momma mo ani nnye Awurade mu, mo teneneefoɔ nyinaa, na monkamfo ne din kronkron no.
