Praise ye the LORD! I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, In the assembly of the righteous, and in the congregation.

The works of the LORD are great, Sought out by all who have pleasure in them.

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

His deeds are honorable and glorious, And his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 Ɔma yɛkae nʼanwonwade; Awurade yɛ ɔdomfo ne mmɔborɔhunufo.

He hath established a memorial of his wonders; The LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

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

He giveth meat to them that fear him; He is ever mindful of his covenant.

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

He showed his people the greatness of his works, When he gave them the inheritance of the heathen.

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

The deeds of his hands are truth and justice; All his commandments are sure;

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

They stand firm for ever and ever, Being founded in truth and justice.

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

He sent redemption to his people; He established his covenant for ever; Holy, and to be had in reverence, 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 have all they who keep his commandments; His praise endureth for ever.
