Nnwom 24

1 Dawid dwom. Asase ne deɛ ɛwɔ mu nyinaa yɛ Awurade dea; ewiase ne wɔn a wɔte soɔ nyinaa wɔ no;

A Psalm of David. The earth [is] the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

2 ɛfiri sɛ ɔno na ɔtoo ne fapem wɔ ɛpo so na ɔde sii nsuo ani.

For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

3 Hwan na ɔbɛtumi aforo Awurade bepɔ no? Hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina ne tenabea kronkron hɔ?

Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

4 Deɛ ɔyɛ ade tenenee na nʼakoma mu teɛ, deɛ ne kra nni ahoni akyi na ɔnnka ntanhunu.

He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

5 Ɔbɛnya Awurade nsam nhyira ne bembuo a ɛfiri ne Nkwagyeɛ Onyankopɔn.

He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 Saa na awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a wɔhwehwɛ Awurade no teɛ, wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ wʼanim no, Ao Yakob Onyankopɔn.

This [is] the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. (Selah)

7 Mo apono, mommuebue mommuebue, mo tete apono, na Animuonyam Ɔhene nhyɛne mu.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

8 Hwan ne saa Animuonyam Ɔhene yi? Ɔno ne Awurade ɔhoɔdenfoɔ ne otumfoɔ no; Awurade a ɔyɛ ɔko mu nkonimdifoɔ.

Who [is] this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

9 Mommuebue, Ao mo apono mommuebue, mo tete apono, na animuonyam Ɔhene no nkɔ mu.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift [them] up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

10 Hwan ne saa animuonyam Ɔhene yi? Asafo Awurade no, ɔno ne animuonyam Ɔhene no.

Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he [is] the King of glory. (Selah)
