Nnwom 111

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

I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; in the council of the just: and in the congregation.

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

Great are the works of the Lord: sought out according to all his wills.

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

His work is praise and magnificence: and his justice continueth for ever and ever.

4 Ɔma yɛkae nʼanwonwade; Awurade yɛ ɔdomfo ne mmɔborɔhunufo.

He hath made a remembrance of his wonderful works, being a merciful and gracious Lord:

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

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

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

He will shew forth to his people the power of his works.

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

That he may give them the inheritance of the Gentiles: the works of his hands are truth and judgment.

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

All his commandments are faithful: confirmed for ever and ever, made in truth and equity.

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

He hath sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever. Holy and terrible 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 the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A good understanding to all that do it: his praise continueth for ever and ever.
