Psalms 97
1 For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.
Awurade di hene, ma asase ani nnye; ma akyirikyiri mpoano ahorow no nsɛpɛw wɔn ho.
2 Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the establishment of his throne.
Omununkum ne sum kabii atwa no ho ahyia; trenee ne atɛntrenee yɛ nʼahengua no fapem.
3 Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.
Ogya di nʼanim na ɛhyew nʼatamfo wɔ afanan nyinaa.
4 His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
Nʼanyinam hyerɛn wiase; asase hu na ne ho popo.
5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Mmepɔw nan sɛ nku wɔ Awurade anim, Awurade a asase nyinaa wɔ no no anim.
6 The heavens have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.
Ɔsoro pae mu ka ne trenee kyerɛ na aman nyinaa hu nʼanuonyam.
7 Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all you his angels.
Ahonisomfo nyinaa anim agu ase, wɔn a wɔde abosomhuhuw hoahoa wɔn ho no, anyame nyinaa monsɔre no.
8 Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of your judgments, O Lord.
Sion te, na ne ho sɛpɛw no na Yuda nkuraa ani gye Awurade, esiane wʼatɛntrenee nti.
9 For you are Lord most high over all the earth; you are greatly exalted above all gods.
Wo, Awurade ne Ɔsorosoroni wɔ asase so nyinaa; wɔama wo so pa ara wɔ anyame nyinaa mu.
10 You that love the Lord, hate evil; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.
Ma wɔn a wɔdɔ Awurade no nkyi bɔne, ɔbɔ ne nkurɔfo a wɔyɛ nokwafo no ho ban na ogye wɔn fi amumɔyɛfo nsam.
11 Light is sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Hann hyerɛn wɔ atreneefo so na anigye ba wɔn a wɔn koma mu tew no so.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.
Momma mo ani nnye Awurade mu, mo a moyɛ atreneefo, na monkamfo ne din kronkron no.
