< Nnwom 76 >
1 Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔde sankuo na ɛtoɔ. Asaf dwom. Wɔnim Onyankopɔn wɔ Yuda; ne din so wɔ Israel.
For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song. God is famous in Judah; his reputation is great throughout Israel.
2 Ne ntomadan si Salem, ne tenaberɛ wɔ Sion.
He lives in Jerusalem; his home is in Zion.
3 Ɛhɔ na ɔbubuu mmemma a ɛte ogya, ɛkyɛm ne akofena, akodeɛ nyinaa mu.
There he broke the flaming arrows, the shields, the swords, and the weapons of war. (Selah)
4 Wo ho hann no hyerɛn, na wo so sene mmepɔ a mmoadoma ahyɛ mu ma no.
You shine with light; you are more majestic than the everlasting mountains.
5 Mmarima akokoɔdurufoɔ deda hɔ a wɔagye wɔn ho nneɛma, wɔadeda awufoɔ nna; na akofoɔ no mu baako mpo ntumi mpagya ne nsa.
Our most courageous enemies have been plundered. They sleep the sleep of death. Even the strongest of them could not raise a hand against us.
6 Ao Yakob Onyankopɔn, wokaa wɔn anim no apɔnkɔ no ne nteaseɛnam no adeda dinn.
At your command, God of Jacob, both horse and rider fell down dead.
7 Wo nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsuro woɔ. Sɛ wo bo fu a, hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina wʼanim?
You are terrifying—who can stand before you when you are angry?
8 Wobuu atɛn firii soro, asase suroeɛ na ɛyɛɛ dinn,
From heaven you announced judgment. Everyone on earth was afraid and stood still,
9 ɛberɛ a wosɔre buu atɛn, Ao Onyankopɔn, de gyee amanehunufoɔ wɔ asase no so.
when you stood up to judge, to save the oppressed people of the earth. (Selah)
10 Ampa ara wʼabufuhyeɛ a ɛtia nnipa no de ayɛyie brɛ wo, na wɔn a wɔtumi gyina ano no nya kɔkɔbɔ.
Even human anger against you makes you look glorious, for you wear it alike a crown.
11 Monhyɛ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn no bɔ na monni so; momma nsase a atwa ne ho ahyia mfa ayɛyɛdeɛ mmrɛ Ɔbaako a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsuro noɔ no.
Make your promises to God and be sure to keep them. Everyone bring gifts to the awe-inspiring one.
12 Ɔbrɛ sodifoɔ honhom ase; na asase so ahemfo suro no.
For he humbles proud leaders; he terrifies the kings of the earth.
