Nnwom 76
1 Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Wɔde sanku na ɛto. Asaf dwom. Onyankopɔn din ahyeta wɔ Yuda; ne din so wɔ Israel.
For the chief musician, on stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph, a song. God has made himself known in Judah; his name is great in Israel.
2 Ne ntamadan si Salem, ne tenabea wɔ Sion.
His tent is in Salem; his dwelling place is in Zion.
3 Ɛhɔ na obubuu mmemma a ɛpa gya, nkatabo ne afoa, akode nyinaa mu.
There he broke the arrows of the bow, the shield, the sword, and the other weapons of war. (Selah)
4 Wo ho hann no hyerɛn, na woso sen mmepɔw a mmoadoma ahyɛ mu ma no.
You shine brightly and reveal your glory, as you descend from the mountains, where you killed your victims.
5 Mmarima akokodurufo deda hɔ a wɔagye wɔn ho nneɛma, wɔadeda awufo nna; na akofo no mu baako mpo ntumi mma ne nsa so.
The bravehearted were plundered; they fell asleep. All the warriors were helpless.
6 Yakob Nyankopɔn, wokaa wɔn anim no apɔnkɔ no ne nteaseɛnam no adeda dinn.
At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both rider and horse fell asleep.
7 Wo nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wosuro wo. Sɛ wo bo fuw a hena na obetumi agyina wʼanim?
You, yes you, are to be feared; who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
8 Wubuu atɛn fii ɔsoro, asase suroe, na ɛyɛɛ komm,
From heaven you made your judgment heard; the earth was afraid and silent
9 bere a wo, Onyankopɔn, sɔre buu atɛn, de gyee amanehunufo wɔ asase no so no.
when you, God, arose to execute judgment and to save all the oppressed 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.
Surely your angry judgment against humanity will bring you praise; you gird yourself with what is left of your anger.
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 vows to Yahweh your God and keep them. May all who surround him bring gifts to him who is to be feared.
12 Ɔbrɛ sodifonom honhom ase; na asase so ahemfo suro no.
He cuts off the spirit of the princes; he is feared by the kings of the earth.
