< Nnwom 24 >
1 Dawid dwom. Asase ne deɛ ɛwɔ mu nyinaa yɛ Awurade dea; ewiase ne wɔn a wɔte soɔ nyinaa wɔ no;
Of David. A psalm. The earth is the Lord’s and all that it holds, the world and those who live in it.
2 ɛfiri sɛ ɔno na ɔtoo ne fapem wɔ ɛpo so na ɔde sii nsuo ani.
For he founded it on the seas, and on the floods he sustains it.
3 Hwan na ɔbɛtumi aforo Awurade bepɔ no? Hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina ne tenabea kronkron hɔ?
Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place?
4 Deɛ ɔyɛ ade tenenee na nʼakoma mu teɛ, deɛ ne kra nni ahoni akyi na ɔnnka ntanhunu.
The clean of hands, the pure of heart, who sets not their heart upon sinful things, nor swears with intent to deceive:
5 Ɔbɛnya Awurade nsam nhyira ne bembuo a ɛfiri ne Nkwagyeɛ Onyankopɔn.
they win from the Lord a blessing: God is their champion and savior.
6 Saa na awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a wɔhwehwɛ Awurade no teɛ, wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ wʼanim no, Ao Yakob Onyankopɔn.
Such must be those who resort to him, and seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Selah)
7 Mo apono, mommuebue mommuebue, mo tete apono, na Animuonyam Ɔhene nhyɛne mu.
Lift high your heads, you gates – Higher, you ancient doors; welcome the glorious king.
8 Hwan ne saa Animuonyam Ɔhene yi? Ɔno ne Awurade ɔhoɔdenfoɔ ne otumfoɔ no; Awurade a ɔyɛ ɔko mu nkonimdifoɔ.
“Who is the glorious king?” “The Lord strong and heroic, the Lord heroic in battle.”
9 Mommuebue, Ao mo apono mommuebue, mo tete apono, na animuonyam Ɔhene no nkɔ mu.
Lift high your heads, you gates – Higher, you ancient doors; welcome the glorious king.
10 Hwan ne saa animuonyam Ɔhene yi? Asafo Awurade no, ɔno ne animuonyam Ɔhene no.
“Who is the glorious king?” “The Lord, the God of hosts, he is the glorious king.” (Selah)
