Nnwom 47

1 Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Koramma dwom. Amanaman nyinaa, mommɔ mo nsam; momfa anigye nteɛ mu mfrɛ Onyankopɔn.

“For the leader of the music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” O clap your hands, all ye nations! Shout unto God with the voice of triumph!

2 Awurade Ɔsorosoroni no ho yɛ nwonwa, Ɔyɛ Ɔhene kɛse wɔ asase nyinaa so!

For terrible is Jehovah, the Most High, The great king over all the earth.

3 Ɔde amanaman hyɛɛ yɛn ase, na ɔde nnipa hyɛɛ yɛn anan ase.

He hath subdued nations under us, And kingdoms under our feet;

4 Oyii yɛn agyapade maa yɛn, nea ɛyɛ Yakob a ɔdɔ no no ahohoahoade.

He hath chosen for us an inheritance, The glory of Jacob, whom he loved. (Pause)

5 Onyankopɔn aforo kɔ soro wɔ anigye nteɛteɛmu mu, Awurade wɔ torobɛnto nnyigyei mu.

God goeth up with a shout; Jehovah with the sound of the trumpet.

6 To ayeyi nnwom ma Onyankopɔn, to ayeyi nnwom; to ayeyi nnwom ma yɛn Hene, to ayeyi nnwom.

Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our king, sing praises!

7 Efisɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ asase nyinaa so Hene. Monto ahurusi nnwom mma no.

For God is king of all the earth; Sing to him hymns of praise!

8 Onyankopɔn di hene wɔ amanaman no so; Onyankopɔn te nʼahengua kronkron so.

God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon his holy throne.

9 Amanaman no mu akunini boaboa wɔn ho ano sɛ Abraham Nyankopɔn nkurɔfo, efisɛ asase so ahemfo yɛ Onyankopɔn de; na wɔma no so kɛse.

The princes of the nations gather themselves together To the people of the God of Abraham; For the mighty of the earth belong to God; He is supremely exalted.
