1 And the rulers of the people dwelt at Jerusalem: the rest of the people also cast lots, to bring one of ten to dwell in Jerusalem the holy city, and nine parts to dwell in other cities.

2 And the people blessed all the men, that willingly offered themselves to dwell at Jerusalem.
Na ɔmanfoɔ no kamfoo obiara a ɔfiri ne pɛ mu sane kɔtenaa Yerusalem no.
