Nnwom 47

1 Kora mma dwom. Amanaman nyinaa, mommɔ mo nsam; momfa anigyeɛ nteam mfrɛ Onyankopɔn.

“For the leader of the music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” O clap your hands, all ye nations! Shout unto God with the voice of triumph!

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

For terrible is Jehovah, the Most High, The great king over all the earth.

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

He hath subdued nations under us, And kingdoms under our feet;

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

He hath chosen for us an inheritance, The glory of Jacob, whom he loved. (Pause)

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

God goeth up with a shout; Jehovah 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 praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our king, sing praises!

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

For God is king of all the earth; Sing to him hymns of praise!

8 Onyankopɔn di ɔhene wɔ amanaman no so Onyankopɔn te nʼahennwa kronkron so.

God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon his holy throne.

9 Amanaman no mu akunini boaboa wɔn ho ano sɛ Abraham Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ asase so ahemfo yɛ Onyankopɔn dea; na wɔma no so yɛ no kɛseɛ.

The princes of the nations gather themselves together To the people of the God of Abraham; For the mighty of the earth belong to God; He is supremely exalted.
