1 Awurade di ɔhene, momma amanaman no ho mpopo; ɔte nʼahennwa so wɔ Kerubim ntam, ma asase nwoso.

Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubs, the earth shaketh.

2 Awurade a ɔwɔ Sion yɛ kɛseɛ; wɔama ne so wɔ amanaman nyinaa mu.

Jehovah in Zion [is] great, And high He [is] over all the peoples.

They praise Thy name, 'Great, and fearful, holy [it] is.'

4 Ɔhene no yɛ kɛseɛ, ɔdɔ atɛntenenee, woama pɛpɛyɛ atim; wayɛ deɛ ɛyɛ na ɛtene wɔ Yakob mu.

And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou — Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, Thou — Thou hast done.

5 Momma Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn so na monsɔre no wɔ ne nan ntiasoɔ anim; ɔyɛ kronkron.

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy [is] He.

Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer them.

7 Ɔfiri omununkum dum mu kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn; wɔdii mmara ne ahyɛdeɛ a ɔmaa wɔn no so.

In a pillar of cloud He speaketh unto them, They have kept His testimonies, And the statute He hath given to them.

8 Ao Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, wogyee wɔn so; woyɛɛ bɔnefakyɛ Onyankopɔn maa Israel, nanso wɔtwee wɔn aso wɔ wɔn nnebɔne ho.

O Jehovah, our God, Thou hast afflicted them, A God forgiving Thou hast been to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy [is] Jehovah our God!
