Nnwom 76
1 Asaf dwom. Onyankopɔn din ahyeta wɔ Yuda; ne din so wɔ Israel.
For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song. God is famous in Judah; his reputation is great throughout Israel.
2 Ne ntamadan si Salem, ne tenabea wɔ Sion.
He lives in Jerusalem; his home is in Zion.
3 Ɛhɔ na obubuu mmemma a ɛpa gya, nkatabo ne afoa, akode nyinaa mu.
There he broke the flaming arrows, the shields, the swords, and the weapons of war. (Selah)
4 Wo ho hann no hyerɛn, na woso sen mmepɔw a mmoadoma ahyɛ mu ma no.
You shine with light; you are more majestic than the everlasting mountains.
5 Mmarima akokodurufo deda hɔ a wɔagye wɔn ho nneɛma, wɔadeda awufo nna; na akofo no mu baako mpo ntumi mma ne nsa so.
Our most courageous enemies have been plundered. They sleep the sleep of death. Even the strongest of them could not raise a hand against us.
6 Yakob Nyankopɔn, wokaa wɔn anim no apɔnkɔ no ne nteaseɛnam no adeda dinn.
At your command, God of Jacob, both horse and rider fell down dead.
7 Wo nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wosuro wo. Sɛ wo bo fuw a hena na obetumi agyina wʼanim?
You are terrifying—who can stand before you when you are angry?
8 Wubuu atɛn fii ɔsoro, asase suroe, na ɛyɛɛ komm,
From heaven you announced judgment. Everyone on earth was afraid and stood still,
9 bere a wo, Onyankopɔn, sɔre buu atɛn, de gyee amanehunufo wɔ asase no so no.
when you stood up to judge, to save the oppressed people of the earth. (Selah)
10 Ampa ara wʼabufuwhyew a etia nnipa no de ayeyi brɛ wo, na wɔn a wotumi gyina ano no nya kɔkɔbɔ.
Even human anger against you makes you look glorious, for you wear it alike a crown.
11 Monhyɛ Awurade mo Nyankopɔn no bɔ na munni so; momma nsase a atwa ne ho ahyia mfa ayɛyɛde mmrɛ Ɔbaako a ɛsɛ sɛ wosuro no no.
Make your promises to God and be sure to keep them. Everyone bring gifts to the awe-inspiring one.
12 Ɔbrɛ sodifonom honhom ase; na asase so ahemfo suro no. Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Wɔde ma Yedutun.
For he humbles proud leaders; he terrifies the kings of the earth.
