Nnwom 46

1 Koramma dwom. Wɔto no “alamot” sanku nne so. Onyankopɔn ne yɛn guankɔbea ne yɛn ahoɔden, amanehunu mu boafo a ɔwɔ hɔ bere biara.

TO THE OVERSEER. BY SONS OF KORAH. FOR GIRLS’ [VOICES]. A SONG. God [is] our refuge and strength, A most sure help in adversities.

2 Enti sɛ asase ani dan butuw, na mmepɔw tutu kogu po ase a, yɛrensuro,

Therefore we do not fear in the changing of earth, And in the slipping of mountains Into the heart of the seas.

3 sɛ po bɔ asorɔkye na ehuru na ɛma nkoko wosow mpo a, yɛrensuro.

Roar—troubled are its waters, Mountains shake in its pride. (Selah)

4 Asuten bi wɔ hɔ a ne nsuwansuwa de anigye ba Onyankopɔn kuropɔn mu, beae kronkron a Ɔsorosoroni no te.

A river—its streams make glad the city of God, Your holy place of the dwelling places of the Most High.

5 Onyankopɔn te kuropɔn no mu, na ɔrenhwe ase; Onyankopɔn bɛboa no anɔpahema.

God [is] in her midst—she is not moved, God helps her at the turn of the morning!

6 Amanaman yɛ hoo, na ahenni hwehwe ase; ɔma ne nne so ma asase nan.

Nations have been troubled, Kingdoms have been moved, He has given forth with His voice—earth melts.

7 Asafo Awurade ka yɛn ho. Yakob Nyankopɔn yɛ yɛn aban.

YHWH of Hosts [is] with us, The God of Jacob [is] a tower for us. (Selah)

8 Bra bɛhwɛ Awurade nnwuma, ɔsɛe a ɔde aba asase no so.

Come, see the works of YHWH, Who has done astonishing things in the earth,

9 Ɔma akodi gyae kosi asase ano. Obubu agyan mu na ɔsɛe peaw; ɔde ogya hyew nkatabo.

Causing wars to cease, To the end of the earth, He shatters the bow, And He has cut apart the spear, He burns chariots with fire.

10 Monyɛ komm na munhu sɛ me ne Onyankopɔn; wɔbɛma me so wɔ amanaman no mu, wɔbɛma me so wɔ asase so.

Desist, and know that I [am] God, I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth.

11 Asafo Awurade ka yɛn ho; Yakob Nyankopɔn yɛ yɛn aban. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo.

YHWH of hosts [is] with us, The God of Jacob [is] a tower for us! (Selah)
