Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the hights.
2 Nʼabɔfo nyinaa, monkamfo no, ne ɔsoro asafo nyinaa, monkamfo no.
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3 Owia ne ɔsram, monkamfo no, nsoromma a ɛhyerɛn nyinaa, monkamfo no.
Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
4 Monkamfo no, ɔsoro mu soro ne mo nsu a mowɔ ɔsoro atifi.
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that [are] above the heavens.
5 Momma wɔn nyinaa nkamfo Awurade din, efisɛ ɔno na ɔhyɛ ma wɔbɔɔ wɔn.
Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.
6 Ɔde wɔn sisii hɔ afebɔɔ; na ɔmaa ɔhyɛ nsɛm bi a ɛrentwa mu da.
He hath also established them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Monkamfo Awurade mfi asase so, mo po kɛse mu abɔde ne po bun nyinaa,
Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
8 anyinam ne mparuwbo, sukyerɛmma ne omununkum, ahum a moyɛ nʼapɛde,
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapors; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9 mo mmepɔw ne nkoko nyinaa, nnua a ɛsow aba ne sida nyinaa,
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 nwura mu mmoa ne anantwi, abɔde nketewa ne nnomaa a wotu,
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping animals, and flying fowl:
11 asase ne amanaman nyinaa so ahemfo, mo mmapɔmma ne asase sodifo nyinaa,
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 mmerante ne mmabaa, mmasiriwa ne mmofra nso.
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 Ma wɔnkamfo Awurade din, na ne din so sen din biara; nʼanuonyam korɔn wɔ asase ne ɔsoro so.
Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory [is] above the earth and heaven.
14 Wapagyaw mmɛn bi ama ne nkurɔfo, nʼahotewfo nyinaa nkamfo; Israelfo, nnipa a wɔda ne koma so no nkamfo. Monkamfo Awurade.
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; [even] of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye the LORD.
