< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise ye Jah! Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.
Monkamfo Awurade. Monto dwom foforo mma Awurade, monkamfo no wɔ ahotefo asafo mu.
2 Israel doth rejoice in his Maker, Sons of Zion do joy in their king.
Ma Israel ani nnye ne Yɛfo mu. Ma Sion mma ani nnye wɔn Hene mu.
3 They praise His name in a dance, With timbrel and harp sing praise to Him.
Ma wɔmfa asaw nkamfo ne din na wɔmfa sanku ne akasaa nto dwom mma no.
4 For Jehovah is pleased with His people, He beautifieth the humble with salvation.
Na Awurade ani sɔ ne nkurɔfo; ɔde nkwagye kyɛw hyɛ ahobrɛasefo.
5 Exult do saints in honour, They sing aloud on their beds.
Momma ahotefo nni ahurusi wɔ anuonyam yi mu; na wɔnto ahosɛpɛw dwom wɔ wɔn mpa so.
6 The exaltation of God [is] 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 do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.
sɛ wɔmfa ntɔ were wɔ amanaman no so ne asotwe wɔ nnipa no so,
8 To bind their kings with chains, And their honoured ones with fetters of iron,
sɛ wɔmfa nyɛ nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn nkyekyere wɔn ahemfo, ne dade mpokyerɛ ngu wɔn atitiriw,
9 To do among them the judgment written, An honour it [is] for all his saints. Praise ye Jah!
sɛ wɔmfa mmu atɛn, sɛnea wɔakyerɛw atia wɔn no. Eyi ne nʼahotewfo nyinaa anuonyam. Monkamfo Awurade.
