Nnwom 47

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

For the leader. Of the Korahites. A psalm. Clap your hands, all you peoples: shout to God in ringing cries.

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

For the Lord is most high and dread, a great king over all the earth.

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

He subdues the peoples under us, the nations under our feet;

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

he chooses our heritage for us, the glory of Jacob whom he loves. (Selah)

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

God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.

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

Sing praise to our God, sing praises: sing praise to our king, sing praises.

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

For king of all earth is he: praise God in a skilful song.

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

God is king over all the nations, God sits on 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.

Princes of nations gather with the people of Abraham’s God: for the shields of the earth are God’s; greatly exalted is he.
