Nnwom 76
1 Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔde sankuo na ɛtoɔ. Asaf dwom. Wɔnim Onyankopɔn wɔ Yuda; ne din so wɔ Israel.
For the chief musician, on stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph, a song. God has made himself known in Judah; his name is great in Israel.
2 Ne ntomadan si Salem, ne tenaberɛ wɔ Sion.
His tent is in Salem; his dwelling place is in Zion.
3 Ɛhɔ na ɔbubuu mmemma a ɛte ogya, ɛkyɛm ne akofena, akodeɛ nyinaa mu.
There he broke the arrows of the bow, the shield, the sword, and the other weapons of war. (Selah)
4 Wo ho hann no hyerɛn, na wo so sene mmepɔ a mmoadoma ahyɛ mu ma no.
You shine brightly and reveal your glory, as you descend from the mountains, where you killed your victims.
5 Mmarima akokoɔdurufoɔ deda hɔ a wɔagye wɔn ho nneɛma, wɔadeda awufoɔ nna; na akofoɔ no mu baako mpo ntumi mpagya ne nsa.
The bravehearted were plundered; they fell asleep. All the warriors were helpless.
6 Ao Yakob Onyankopɔn, wokaa wɔn anim no apɔnkɔ no ne nteaseɛnam no adeda dinn.
At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both rider and horse fell asleep.
7 Wo nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsuro woɔ. Sɛ wo bo fu a, hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina wʼanim?
You, yes you, are to be feared; who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
8 Wobuu atɛn firii soro, asase suroeɛ na ɛyɛɛ dinn,
From heaven you made your judgment heard; the earth was afraid and silent
9 ɛberɛ a wosɔre buu atɛn, Ao Onyankopɔn, de gyee amanehunufoɔ wɔ asase no so.
when you, God, arose to execute judgment and to save all the oppressed 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.
Surely your angry judgment against humanity will bring you praise; you gird yourself with what is left of your anger.
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 vows to Yahweh your God and keep them. May all who surround him bring gifts to him who is to be feared.
12 Ɔbrɛ sodifoɔ honhom ase; na asase so ahemfo suro no.
He cuts off the spirit of the princes; he is feared by the kings of the earth.
