Nnwom 99

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

A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.

2 Awurade a ɔwɔ Sion yɛ ɔkɛse; wɔama no so wɔ amanaman nyinaa mu.

The Lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.

3 Ma wɔnkamfo wo din a ɛso na ɛyɛ nwonwa no, ɔyɛ ɔkronkron.

Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:

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

And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.

5 Momma Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn so na monsɔre no wɔ ne nan ntiaso anim; ɔyɛ ɔkronkron.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.

6 Na Mose ne Aaron ka nʼasɔfo no ho, na Samuel ka wɔn a wɔbɔɔ ne din no ho; wɔfrɛɛ Awurade, na ogyee wɔn so.

Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard 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 the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.

8 Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn, wugyee wɔn so; woyɛɛ bɔnefakyɛ Nyankopɔn maa Israel, nanso wotwee wɔn aso wɔ wɔn nnebɔne ho.

Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.

9 Momma Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn so na monsɔre no wɔ ne bepɔw kronkron no so, na Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn yɛ ɔkronkron.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.
