Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.

Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!

3 Efi faako a owia pue kosi faako a ɛkɔtɔ, ma wɔnkamfo Awurade din.

From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.

4 Wɔama Awurade so aman nyinaa so, nʼanuonyam tra ɔsorosoro.

Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.

5 Hena na ɔte sɛ Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn, Ɔbaako no a odi hene wɔ ɔsorosoro,

Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;

6 ɔno na ɔbɔ ne mu ase hwɛ ɔsorosoro ne asase?

Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?

7 Ɔma ahiafo so fi mfutuma mu na ɔma onnibi so fi nso siw so;

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,

8 ɔde wɔn tena mmapɔmma mu, wɔn nkurɔfo mmapɔmma mu.

To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.

9 Ɔbɔ obonin atenase wɔ ne fi sɛ ɔbeatan a nʼani gye. Monkamfo Awurade.

He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
