1 Monkamfo Awurade! Mefi me koma nyinaa mu ama Awurade so wɔ atreneefo aguabɔ ne asafo no mu.

Praise ye Jehovah. I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart, In the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

2 Awurade nnwuma yɛ akɛse; wɔn a wɔn ani gye ho nyinaa susuw ho.

The works of Jehovah are great, Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

3 Ne nnwuma yɛ tumi ne anuonyam, na ne trenee wɔ hɔ daa.

His work is honor and majesty; And his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 Ɔma yɛkae nʼanwonwade; Awurade yɛ ɔdomfo ne mmɔborɔhunufo.

He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: Jehovah is gracious and merciful.

5 Ɔma wɔn a wosuro no no aduan; ɔkae nʼapam no daa.

He hath given food unto them that fear him: He will ever be mindful of his covenant.

6 Wakyerɛ ne nkurɔfo tumi a ɛwɔ ne nnwuma mu, sɛ ɔde aman afoforo nsase ama wɔn.

He hath showed his people the power of his works, In giving them the heritage of the nations.

7 Ne nsa ano nnwuma yɛ nokware na ɛteɛ; nʼahyɛde nyinaa mu wɔ ahotoso.

The works of his hands are truth and justice; All his precepts are sure.

8 Etim hɔ daa daa, nokware ne trenee mu na ɔyɛe.

They are established for ever and ever; They are done in truth and uprightness.

9 Ɔde ogye maa ne nkurɔfo; ɔde nʼapam sii hɔ afebɔɔ, ne din yɛ kronkron na ɛyɛ hu.

He hath sent redemption unto his people; He hath commanded his covenant for ever: Holy and reverend is his name.

10 Awurade suro yɛ nyansa mfiase; wɔn a wodi nʼahyɛde so nyinaa wɔ nhumu pa. Ɔno na daa ayeyi wɔ no.

The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all they that do [his commandments]: His praise endureth for ever.
