Nnwom 149

1 Monkamfo Awurade. Monto dwom foforɔ mma Awurade, monkamfo no wɔ ahotefoɔ asafo mu.

Hallelujah. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and His praise in the assembly of the saints.

2 Ma Israel ani nnye ne Yɛfoɔ mu. Ma Sion mma ani nnye wɔn Ɔhene mu.

Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

3 Ma wɔmfa asa nkamfo ne din na wɔmfa sankuo ne akasaeɛ nto dwom mma no.

Let them praise His name in the dance; let them sing praises unto Him with the timbrel and harp.

4 Na Awurade ani sɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ; ɔde nkwagyeɛ kyɛ hyɛ ahobrɛasefoɔ.

For the LORD taketh pleasure in His people; He adorneth the humble with salvation.

5 Momma ahotefoɔ nni ahurisie wɔ animuonyam yi mu; na wɔnto ahosɛpɛ dwom wɔ wɔn mpa so.

Let the saints exult in glory; let them sing for joy upon their beds.

6 Onyankopɔn nkamfo nhyɛ wɔn anomu na ɛnyɛ akofena anofanu wɔ wɔn nsam,

Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

7 sɛ wɔmfa ntɔ werɛ wɔ amanaman no so ne asotwe wɔ nnipa no so,

To execute vengeance upon the nations, and chastisements upon the peoples;

8 sɛ wɔmfa nyɛ nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn nkyekyere wɔn ahemfo, ne dadeɛ mpɔkyerɛ ngu wɔn atitire,

To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

9 sɛ wɔmfa mmu atɛn sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ atia wɔn no. Yei ne nʼahotefoɔ nyinaa animuonyam. Monkamfo Awurade.

To execute upon them the judgment written; He is the glory of all His saints. Hallelujah.
