Psalms 96
1 Sing to Yahweh a new song! [You people] throughout the earth, sing to Yahweh!
Monto dwom foforɔ mma Awurade; asase nyinaa monto dwom mma Awurade.
2 Sing to Yahweh and praise him [MTY]! Every day proclaim [to others] that he has saved/rescued us.
Monto dwom mma Awurade, na monkamfo ne din; mompae mu nka ne nkwagyeɛ no daa daa.
3 Tell about his glory/greatness to all people-groups; tell all people-groups the marvelous [things that he has done].
Monka nʼanimuonyam wɔ amanaman mu, monka nʼanwanwadeɛ a wayɛ wɔ nnipa mu.
4 Yahweh is great, and he deserves to be praised very much; he should be revered more than for all the gods,
Awurade yɛ kɛseɛ na ɔfata ayɛyie; ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsuro no sene anyame nyinaa.
5 because all the gods that other people-groups [worship] are [only] idols, but Yahweh [is truly great]; he created the skies!
Anyame a wɔwɔ aman foforɔ so yɛ ahoni bi kwa, nanso Awurade na ɔbɔɔ ɔsoro.
6 Those who are in his presence honor him and can see that he is a great king. They can see in his temple that he is very powerful and is very beautiful.
Animuonyam ne kɛseyɛ wɔ nʼanim; ahoɔden ne animuonyam wɔ ne kronkronbea hɔ.
7 You people in nations all over the earth, praise Yahweh! Praise Yahweh for his glorious power [HEN]!
Momfa mma Awurade, Ao amanaman mmusuakuo, momfa animuonyam ne tumi mma Awurade.
8 Praise Yahweh like he deserves to be praised, Bring an offering and come to his temple.
Momfa animuonyam ne din a ɛfata mma Awurade; momfa afɔrebɔdeɛ nhyɛne nʼadihɔ hɔ.
9 Bow down before Yahweh [when he appears] in his holy/sacred temple; everyone on the earth should tremble in front of him, because he is majestic and holy.
Monsɔre Awurade wɔ ne kronkronyɛ fɛfɛ mu; asase nyinaa momma mo ho mpopo wɔ nʼanim.
10 Say to all the people-groups, “Yahweh is the king! He put the world in its place, and nothing will ever be able to move/shake it. He will judge [all] the people-groups fairly.”
Monka nkyerɛ aman nyinaa sɛ, “Awurade di ɔhene.” Wɔabɔ asase atim hɔ pintinn na ɛnhinhim; ɔde pɛpɛyɛ bɛbu nnipa atɛn.
11 [All the beings that are in] [MTY] the heavens should be glad, and all [the people on the] earth should rejoice. The oceans and all the creatures that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh].
Momma ɔsorosoro ani nnye, na asase nni ahurisie; momma ɛpo ne emu nneɛma nyinaa nworo;
12 The fields and everything that grows in them should rejoice. When they do that, [it will be as though] all the trees in the forests will sing joyfully
momma mfuo ne so nneɛma nyinaa mmɔ ose. Nnua a ɛwɔ kwaeɛm de ahosɛpɛ bɛto dwom;
13 in front of Yahweh. That will happen when he comes to judge [everyone on] [MTY] the earth. He will judge all the people fairly/justly, according to [what he knows is] true.
wɔbɛto dwom wɔ Awurade anim, ɛfiri sɛ ɔreba, ɔreba abɛbu asase no atɛn. Ɔde tenenee bɛbu ewiase atɛn na woabu nnipa nso atɛn wɔ ne nokorɛ mu.
