1 Awurade di hene, momma amanaman no ho mpopo; ɔte nʼahengua so wɔ kerubim ntam, ma asase nwosow.

Jehovah reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits above the cherubim, let the earth be moved.

Let them praise thy great and awesome name. Holy is he.

4 Ɔhene no yɛ ɔkɛse, ɔdɔ atɛntrenee, woama pɛpɛyɛ atim; wayɛ nea eye na ɛteɛ wɔ Yakob mu.

The king's strength also loves justice. Thou establish equity. Thou execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who call upon his name, they called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.

7 Ofi omununkum dum mu kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn; wodii mmara ne ahyɛde a ɔmaa wɔn no so.

He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.

Thou answered them, O Jehovah our God. Thou were a God who forgave them, though thou took vengeance on their doings.
