Nnwom 148
1 Monkamfo Awurade! Monkamfo Awurade mfiri ɔsorosoro, monkamfo no wɔ ɔsoro sorɔnsorɔmmea.
Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2 Nʼabɔfoɔ nyinaa, monkamfo no, ne ɔsoro asafo nyinaa, monkamfo no.
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3 Owia ne ɔsrane, monkamfo no, nsoromma a ɛhran nyinaa, monkamfo no.
Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
4 Monkamfo no, ɔsoro mu ɔsoro ne mo nsuo a mowɔ ɔsoro atifi.
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
5 Momma wɔn nyinaa nkamfo Awurade din, ɛfiri sɛ ɔno na ɔhyɛeɛ na wɔbɔɔ wɔn.
Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.
6 Ɔde wɔn sisii hɔ afebɔɔ; na wahyɛ nʼasɛm a ɛrentwam da.
He hath also established them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Monkamfo Awurade mfiri asase so, mo, ɛpo kɛseɛ mu abɔdeɛ ne ɛpo bunu nyinaa,
Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
8 anyinam ne asukɔtweaa, sukyerɛmma ne omununkum, ahum a moyɛ nʼapɛdeɛ,
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9 mo, mmepɔ ne nkokoɔ nyinaa, nnua a ɛso aba ne ntweneduro nyinaa,
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 wira mu mmoa ne anantwie, abɔdeɛ nketewa ne nnomaa a wɔtuo,
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
11 asase ne amanaman nyinaa so ahemfo, mo, mmapɔmma ne asase sodifoɔ nyinaa,
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 mmeranteɛ ne mmabaawa mmasiriwa ne mmɔfra nso.
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 Ma wɔnkamfo Awurade din, na ne din so sene edin biara; nʼanimuonyam korɔn wɔ asase ne ɔsoro so.
Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 Wapagya abɛn bi ama ne nkurɔfoɔ, ama nʼahotefoɔ nyinaa animuonyam, Israelfoɔ, nnipa a wɔda nʼakoma so no. Monkamfo Awurade.
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye the LORD.
