< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise ye Yah, Sing to Yahweh a song that is new, his praise in the convocation of the men of lovingkindness.
Monkamfo Awurade. Monto dwom foforo mma Awurade, monkamfo no wɔ ahotefo asafo mu.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;
Ma Israel ani nnye ne Yɛfo mu. Ma Sion mma ani nnye wɔn Hene mu.
3 Let them praise his Name in the dance, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.
Ma wɔmfa asaw nkamfo ne din na wɔmfa sanku ne akasaa nto dwom mma no.
4 For Yahweh is taking pleasure in his people, He will beautify humbled ones with victory.
Na Awurade ani sɔ ne nkurɔfo; ɔde nkwagye kyɛw hyɛ ahobrɛasefo.
5 Let the men of lovingkindness exult as they glory, Let them shout aloud upon their beds:
Momma ahotefo nni ahurusi wɔ anuonyam yi mu; na wɔnto ahosɛpɛw dwom wɔ wɔn mpa so.
6 The high songs of GOD be in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand:
Onyankopɔn nkamfo nhyɛ wɔn anom, na ɛnyɛ afoa anofanu wɔ wɔn nsam,
7 To execute an avenging among the nations, rebukes among the peoples:
sɛ wɔmfa ntɔ were wɔ amanaman no so ne asotwe wɔ nnipa no so,
8 To bind their kings with fetters, and their honoured ones with iron bands:
sɛ wɔmfa nyɛ nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn nkyekyere wɔn ahemfo, ne dade mpokyerɛ ngu wɔn atitiriw,
9 To execute upon them the sentence written, An honour, shall it be to all his men of lovingkindness. Praise ye Yah!
sɛ wɔmfa mmu atɛn, sɛnea wɔakyerɛw atia wɔn no. Eyi ne nʼahotewfo nyinaa anuonyam. Monkamfo Awurade.
