Nanso ade kyee a Asdod kurowmma no kɔhwɛe no, na Dagon ahwe fam wɔ Awurade Apam Adaka no anim a nʼanim butuw fam. Enti wɔmaa ohoni no so gyinaa hɔ bio.
4 Atangtho amom a thaw awh toteh, Dagon pakhup lah talai dawk a rawp e a hmu awh teh, Dagon teh amae hmuen koe bout a hruek awh.

5 Hatdawkvah, Asdod kho dawk sahnin totouh Dagon e vaihmanaw, Dagon imthung kâen buet touh ni hai Dagon im e longkha teh atu totouh coungroe ngam awh hoeh toe.
Ɛno nti na ebesi nnɛ yi, Dagon asɔfo anaa obiara a obewura abosonnan mu hɔ no ntia aponnua no so no.
6 BAWIPA ni Asdod khocanaw lathueng a kut ka ri e a toung. Asdod kho hoi hote kho teng kaawm e taminaw hah tak pâphu patawnae lahoi runae a poe teh moi a pathung.
Na Awurade maa pɔmpɔ bobɔɔ Asdodfo ne ne mpɔtam hɔfo no.
7 Asdodnaw ni hot patetlah e hno kaawm e hah a hmu awh navah Isarelnaw e Cathut thingkong kaimouh koe pou awm hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaimouh hoi Cathut Dagon lathueng kut a toung e a patawpoung telah ati awh.

8 Taminaw a patoun awh teh, Filistin siangpahrangnaw a kamkhueng sak awh teh, Isarelnaw e Cathut e thingkong hah bangtelamaw ti han telah a pacei awh navah, siangpahrangnaw ni Isarelnaw e Cathut thingkong hah Gath kho lah cetkhai awh naseh ati awh teh thingkong hah a ceikhai awh.
Enti wɔfrɛɛ Filistifo nkuropɔn anum mu asodifo nyinaa bisaa wɔn se, “Dɛn na yɛnyɛ Israel Nyankopɔn Apam Adaka yi?” Asodifo no susuw asɛm no ho na wobuae se, “Momfa Israel Nyankopɔn Apam Adaka no nkɔ Gat.” Enti wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kɔɔ Gat.
9 A ceikhai awh hnukkhu hote khopui dawk BAWIPA ni kut a toung teh tami pueng lungthin a tâlueng sak. Khoca kathoung kalennaw koe totouh pâphu patawnae teh a pha sak.
Nanso Bere a Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no duu Gat no, Awurade maa pɔmpɔ bobɔɔ kurow no mufo, mpanyin ne mmofra, na wosuroo yiye.
