Psalms 48

1 A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah. Great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, In the city of our God — His holy hill.

Koramma dwom. Awurade yɛ ɔkɛse na ɔsɛ nkamfo, wɔ yɛn Nyankopɔn kuropɔn mu, ne bepɔw kronkron so.

2 Beautiful [for] elevation, A joy of all the land, [is] Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of a great king.

Ne sorokɔ ma ɛyɛ fɛ, ɛyɛ wiase nyinaa anigyede. Bepɔw Sion te sɛ Safon sorɔnsorɔmmea, Ɔhenkɛse no kuropɔn.

3 God in her high places is known for a tower.

Onyankopɔn te nʼabankɛse mu wada ne ho adi sɛ ɔyɛ nʼabandennen.

4 For, lo, the kings met, they passed by together,

Bere a ahemfo yi boaa wɔn ho ano, na wotuu ɔsa bɔɔ mu no,

5 They have seen — so they have marvelled, They have been troubled, they were hastened away.

wohuu no ma ɛyɛɛ wɔn ahodwiriw, na wɔde ehu guanee.

6 Trembling hath seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing woman.

Wɔbɔɔ huboa wɔ hɔ, ɔyaw a ɛte sɛ ɔbea a awo aka no.

7 By an east wind Thou shiverest ships of Tarshish.

Wosɛe wɔn sɛ Tarsis ahyɛn a apuei mframa abɔ adwira wɔn.

8 As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of Jehovah of hosts, In the city of our God, God doth establish her — to the age. (Selah)

Sɛnea yɛate no, saa ara na yɛahu wɔ Asafo Awurade kuropɔn no mu, yɛn Nyankopɔn kuropɔn mu; Onyankopɔn ma etim hɔ afebɔɔ.

9 We have thought, O God, of Thy kindness, In the midst of Thy temple,

Wʼasɔredan no mu; Ao, Onyankopɔn, na yɛdwene wo dɔ a enni huammɔ da no ho,

10 As [is] Thy name, O God, so [is] Thy praise, Over the ends of the earth, Righteousness hath filled Thy right hand.

Ao, Onyankopɔn, wʼayeyi du asase ano te sɛ wo din te; trenee ayɛ wo nsa nifa mu ma.

11 Rejoice doth Mount Zion, The daughters of Judah are joyful, For the sake of Thy judgments.

Sion bepɔw di ahurusi, Yuda nkuraase no ani gye esiane wʼatemmu no nti.

12 Compass Zion, and go round her, count her towers,

Nantew Sion na twa ho hyia, kan nʼabantenten dodow,

13 Set your heart to her bulwark, Consider her high places, So that ye recount to a later generation,

dwene nʼafasu ho yiye, hwɛ nʼabankɛse no, na woaka ho asɛm akyerɛ nkyirimma.

14 That this God [is] our God — To the age and for ever, He — he doth lead us over death!

Saa Onyankopɔn yi yɛ yɛn Nyankopɔn daa daa; ɔbɛyɛ yɛn kwankyerɛfo akosi awiei mpo. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo.
