To him that excelleth. A Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah. All people clap your hands: sing loude vnto God with a ioyfull voyce.

2 Awurade Ɔsorosoroni no ho yɛ nwanwa, Ɔyɛ Ɔhene kɛseɛ wɔ asase nyinaa so!

For the Lord is high, and terrible: a great King ouer all the earth.

3 Ɔde amanaman hyɛɛ yɛn ase, na ɔde nnipa hyɛɛ yɛn nan ase.

He hath subdued the people vnder vs, and the nations vnder our feete.

4 Ɔyii yɛn agyapadeɛ maa yɛn, deɛ ɛyɛ Yakob a ɔdɔ noɔ no ahohoahoadeɛ.

Hee hath chosen our inheritance for vs: euen the glory of Iaakob whom he loued. (Selah)

5 Onyankopɔn aforo kɔ soro wɔ anigyeɛ nteateam mu. Awurade wɔ totorobɛnto nnyegyeeɛ mu.

God is gone vp with triumph, euen the Lord, with the sound of the trumpet.

6 To ayɛyie nnwom ma Onyankopɔn, to ayɛyie nnwom; to ayɛyie nnwom ma yɛn Ɔhene, to ayɛyie nnwom.

Sing prayses to God, sing prayses: sing prayses vnto our King, sing prayses.

7 Ɛfiri sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ asase nyinaa so Ɔhene. Monto ahurisie nnwom mma no.

For God is the King of all the earth: sing prayses euery one that hath vnderstanding.

God reigneth ouer the heathen: God sitteth vpon his holy throne.
