< 1 Kings 8 >

1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, all the heads of the tribes, and the leaders of the families of the people of Israel, before himself in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh from the city of David, that is, Zion.
Afei, Salomo frɛɛ Israel mmusuakuo ne mmusua biara mu ntuanofoɔ nyinaa, sɛ wɔnhyia wɔ Yerusalem. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfa Awurade Apam Adaka no firi baabi a ɛwɔ wɔ Dawid kuro a wɔfrɛ no Sion no mu, de ba baabi foforɔ wɔ Asɔredan mu hɔ.
2 All the men of Israel assembled before King Solomon at the feast, in the month of Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
Wɔn nyinaa bɛhyiaa wɔ ɔhene anim wɔ afirinhyia afahyɛ a wɔfrɛ no Dwanekɔbea Afahyɛ no ase wɔ bosome Bul (bɛyɛ Ahinime) mu.
3 All the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
Ɛberɛ a mpanimfoɔ no duruu Israel no, asɔfoɔ no maa Adaka no so.
4 They brought up the ark of Yahweh, the tent of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tent. The priests and the Levites brought these things up.
Afei, asɔfoɔ no ne Lewifoɔ maa Awurade Adaka no ne Ntomadan no so, soa de kɔɔ Asɔredan no mu a ɛho nkuku ne nkaka a wɔate ho no ka ho.
5 King Solomon and all the assembly of Israel came together before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted.
Ɔhene Salomo ne Israel manfoɔ no nyinaa de nnwan ne anantwie a wɔn dodoɔ nni ano bɔɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ Adaka no anim.
6 The priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place, into the inner room of the house, to the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim.
Afei, asɔfoɔ no soaa Awurade Adaka no de kɔɔ Asɔredan no kronkron mu kronkron hɔ. Wɔde sii Kerubim no ntaban ase.
7 For the cherubim spread out their wings to the place of the ark, and they covered the ark and the poles by which it was carried.
Kerubim no trɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu wɔ Adaka no so, ma ɛyɛɛ sɛ kyiniiɛ wɔ Adaka no ne ne nnua a ɛsosɔ mu no so.
8 The poles were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place in front of the inner room, but they could not be seen from outside. They are there to this day.
Na nnua a ɛsosɔ mu no woware ara kɔsi sɛ, sɛ obi gyina Asɔredan no kwan a ɛwɔ anim dan kɛseɛ a ɛyɛ kronkronbea no ano a, ɔhunu, nanso sɛ ɔgyina akyire deɛ a, ɔnhunu. Ne nyinaa da so wɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
9 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets of stone that Moses had put there at Horeb, when Yahweh made a covenant with the people of Israel when they came out of the land of Egypt.
Na biribiara nni Adaka no mu ka aboɔ apono mmienu a Mose de guu mu wɔ Horeb no, baabi a Awurade ne Israelfoɔ yɛɛ apam, ɛberɛ a wɔfirii Misraim no.
10 It came about that when the priests came out of the holy place, the cloud filled the temple of Yahweh.
Asɔfoɔ no refiri Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ no, omununkum bɛhyɛɛ Awurade Asɔredan no ma.
11 The priests could not stand to serve because of the cloud, for the glory of Yahweh filled his house.
Asɔfoɔ no antumi antoa wɔn dwumadie no so, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade animuonyam bɛhyɛɛ Asɔredan no ma.
12 Then Solomon said, “Yahweh has said that he would live in thick darkness,
Na Salomo bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Ao, Awurade, woaka sɛ wobɛtena omununkum kusuu mu.
13 But I have built you a lofty residence, a place for you to live in forever.”
Nanso, masi Asɔredan a ɛwɔ animuonyam ama wo a wobɛtumi atena mu afebɔɔ.”
14 Then the king turned around and blessed all the assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.
Na ɔhene no danee ne ho kyerɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ a wɔgyina nʼanim no nyinaa, hyiraa wɔn sɛ,
15 He said, “May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be praised, who spoke to David my father, and has fulfilled it with his own hands, saying,
“Nhyira nka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn a wadi ɛbɔ a ɔhyɛɛ mʼagya Dawid no so.
16 'Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel in which to build a house, in order for my name to be there. However, I chose David to rule over my people Israel.'
Na ɔka kyerɛɛ mʼagya sɛ, ‘Ɛfiri da a mede me nkurɔfoɔ Israel firi Misraim baeɛ no, mannyi kuro biara wɔ Israel mmusuakuo no mu a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsi asɔredan, de hyɛ me din animuonyam. Nanso, seesei mayi Dawid sɛ ɔnni ɔhene wɔ me nkurɔfoɔ so.’”
17 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
Na Salomo kaa sɛ, “Mʼagya pɛɛ sɛ anka ɔsi Asɔredan yi de hyɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn din animuonyam.
18 But Yahweh said to David my father, 'In that it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well for it to be in your heart.
Nanso, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ sɛ wopɛ sɛ wosi Asɔredan de hyɛ me din animuonyam,
19 Nevertheless you will not build the house; instead, your son, one who will be born from your loins, will build the house for my name.'
nanso ɛnyɛ wo na wobɛyɛ. Mmom, wo mmammarima no mu baako na ɔbɛsi.’
20 Yahweh has carried out the word that he had said, for I have arisen in the place of David my father, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as Yahweh promised. I have built the house for the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
“Na seesei, Awurade ayɛ deɛ ɔhyɛɛ ho bɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ, madi adeɛ sɛ ɔhene, asi mʼagya anan mu. Masi saa Asɔredan yi de ahyɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn din animuonyam.
21 I have made a place for the ark there, in which is Yahweh's covenant, which he made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.”
Na masiesie baabi wɔ hɔ ama Adaka a Awurade Apam a ɔne yɛn agyanom yɛɛ wɔ ɛberɛ a ɔyii wɔn firii Misraim no.”
22 Solomon stood before the altar of Yahweh, before all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands toward the heavens.
Na Salomo gyinaa hɔ, pagyaa ne nsa kyerɛɛ soro wɔ Awurade afɔrebukyia no anim wɔ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa anim.
23 He said, “Yahweh, God of Israel, there is no God like you in the heavens above or on the earth below, who keeps his covenant faithfulness with your servants who walk before you with all their heart;
Ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Ao, Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, Onyame biara nni hɔ a ɔte sɛ wo wɔ ɔsoro anaa asase so. Wodi wo bɔhyɛ so, na woda wo dɔ a ɛnni awieeɛ adi kyerɛ wɔn a wɔtie wo, na wɔpɛ sɛ wɔyɛ wʼapɛdeɛ nso.
24 you who have kept with your servant David my father, what you promised him. Yes, you spoke with your mouth and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is today.
Wo bɔ a wohyɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔyɛ mʼagya no, woadi so. Wʼankasa wʼano na wode hyɛɛ bɔ no, na ɛnnɛ, wonam wʼankasa wo nsa so ama aba mu.
25 Now then, Yahweh, God of Israel, carry out what you have promised to your servant David my father, when you said, 'You will not fail to have a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants are careful to walk before me, as you have walked before me.'
“Afei, Ao Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ma ɛbɔ a wokɔɔ so hyɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔyɛ mʼagya no mmra mu. Woka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Sɛ wʼasefoɔ bɔ wɔn bra yie, na wɔdi me mmara so sɛdeɛ woayɛ no a, wɔbɛdi Israel so ɔhene daa daa.’
26 Now then, God of Israel, let your word be confirmed, which you have spoken to your servant David my father.
Enti afei, Ao, Israel Onyankopɔn, di ɛbɔ a woahyɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ, mʼagya Dawid no so.
27 But will God actually live on the earth? Look, the entire universe and heaven itself cannot contain you—how much less can this temple that I have built!
“Na ɛyɛ ampa sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛtena asase so? Mpo, sɛ ɔsorosoro sua ma wo a, ɛdeɛn na yɛbɛka afa Asɔredan a masi yi ho!
28 Yet please respect this prayer of your servant and his request, Yahweh my God; listen to the cry and prayer that your servant prays before you today.
Tie me mpaeɛbɔ ne mʼadesrɛdeɛ, Ao, Awurade, me Onyankopɔn. Tie su a wo ɔsomfoɔ resu ne mpaeɛ a wo ɔsomfoɔ rebɔ akyerɛ wo ɛnnɛ.
29 May your eyes be open toward this temple night and day, to the place about which you have said, 'My name and my presence will be there'—in order to listen to the prayers that your servant will pray toward this place.
Wobɛhwɛ Asɔredan yi so awia ne anadwo; saa beaeɛ a woaka sɛ wode wo din bɛto so no. Wobɛtie mpaeɛ a mebɔ wɔ beaeɛ yi daa.
30 So listen to the request of your servant and of your people Israel when we pray toward this place. Yes, listen from the place where you live, from the heavens; and when you listen, forgive.
Tie mʼahobrɛaseɛ ne nokorɛ abisadeɛ a ɛfiri me ne wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ nkyɛn, ɛberɛ a yɛrebɔ mpaeɛ wɔ beaeɛ ha no. Aane, tie yɛn firi soro a wote hɔ no, na sɛ wote a, fa kyɛ.
31 If a man sins against his neighbor and is required to swear an oath, and if he comes and swears an oath before your altar in this house,
“Sɛ obi fom obi, na ɛho hia sɛ ɔka ho ntam sɛ ɔnnim ho hwee wɔ afɔrebukyia a ɛsi asɔredan mu no anim a,
32 listen from the heavens and act. Judge your servants, condemning the guilty and bringing what he has done upon his own head. Declare the innocent not guilty and give to him according to his righteousness.
tie firi soro, na bu wʼasomfoɔ baanu no a ɛyɛ deɛ wɔabɔ no soboɔ no ne soboɔbɔfoɔ no ntam atɛn. Deɛ ɔdi fɔ no, twe nʼaso na gyaa deɛ ɔdi bem no.
33 When your people Israel are defeated by an enemy because they have sinned against you, if they turn back to you, confess your name, pray, and request forgiveness from you in this temple—
“Sɛ wɔdi wo nkurɔfoɔ Israel so, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔayɛ bɔne atia wo, na sɛ wɔdane ba wo nkyɛn, na wɔbɔ wo din frɛ wo, na wɔbɔ wo mpaeɛ wɔ Asɔredan mu ha a,
34 then please listen in the heavens and forgive the sin of your people Israel; bring them back to the land that you gave to their ancestors.
ɛnneɛ, tie firi soro, na fa wɔn bɔne kyɛ wɔn, na ma wɔnsane nkɔ asase a wode maa wɔn agyanom no so.
35 When the skies are shut up and there is no rain because the people have sinned against you—if they pray toward this place, confess your name, and turn from their sin when you have afflicted them—
“Sɛ ɔsoro mu ato, na osuo ntɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, wo nkurɔfoɔ ayɛ bɔne atia wo, na afei, wɔbɔ mpaeɛ wɔ Asɔredan mu ha, bɔ wo din, ka wɔn bɔne, na wɔdane firi wɔn bɔne ho, ɛfiri sɛ, woatwe wɔn aso a,
36 then listen in heaven and forgive the sin of your servants and of your people Israel, when you teach them the good way in which they should walk. Send rain on your land, which you have given to your people as an inheritance.
ɛnneɛ, tie firi soro, na fa wʼasomfoɔ, wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ bɔne no kyɛ. Kyerɛ wɔn deɛ ɛyɛ, na ma osuo ntɔ ngu wʼasase a wode ama wo nkurɔfoɔ sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ sononko no so.
37 Suppose there is famine in the land, or suppose that there is disease, blight or mildew, locusts or caterpillars; or suppose that an enemy attacks the city gates in their land, or that there is any plague or sickness—
“Sɛ ɛkɔm si asase no so anaa ɔyaredɔm ba so anaa mfudeɛ nyarewa ba anaa ntutummɛ ne asa bɛgu mfudeɛ so, anaa wo nkurɔfoɔ atamfoɔ ba asase no so bɛtua wɔn nkuro a, sɛdeɛ ɔhaw no te biara no,
38 and suppose then that prayers and requests are made by a person or by all your people Israel—each knowing the plague in his own heart as he spreads out his hands toward this temple.
na sɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ bɔ mpaeɛ wɔ wɔn haw ne awerɛhoɔ ho, na wɔpagya wɔn nsa wɔ asɔredan yi mu a,
39 Then listen from heaven, the place where you live, forgive and act, and reward every person for all he does; you know his heart, because you and you only know the hearts of all human beings.
tie firi soro, deɛ wote hɔ, na fa kyɛ. Fa biribiara a ɛyɛ ma wo nkurɔfoɔ ma wɔn, na wo nko ara na wonim onipa akoma mu.
40 Do this so that they may fear you all the days that they live on the land that you gave to our ancestors.
Na wɔbɛsuro wo, na wɔanante wʼakwan so, berɛ dodoɔ a wɔte asase a wode maa yɛn agyanom yi so no.
41 In addition, concerning the foreigner who does not belong to your people Israel: When he comes from a distant country because of your name—
“Na sɛ ananafoɔ te wo nka, na wɔfiri akyirikyiri nsase so ba bɛsom wo din kɛseɛ no a,
42 for they will hear of your great name, your mighty hand, and your raised arm—when he comes and prays toward this temple,
wɔbɛte wo nka, wo nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ akɛseɛ no ne wo tumi ho asɛm, na sɛ wɔbɔ mpaeɛ wɔ saa asɔredan yi mu a,
43 then please listen from heaven, the place where you live, and do whatever the foreigner asks of you. Do this so that all the peoples on earth may know your name and fear you, as do your own people Israel. Do this so they might know that this house I have built is called by your name.
tie firi soro hɔ a wote no, na yɛ wɔn abisadeɛ ma wɔn. Na ɛbɛma nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa ahunu, na wɔasuro wo, sɛdeɛ wo ara wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ yɛ no. Wɔn nso bɛhunu sɛ, wo din da saa Asɔredan a masi yi so.
44 Suppose that your people go out to battle against an enemy, by whatever way you may send them, and suppose that they pray to you, Yahweh, toward the city that you have chosen, and toward the house that I have built for your name.
“Sɛ wohyɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ ma wɔpue, kɔko tia wɔn atamfoɔ, na sɛ wɔbɔ mpaeɛ, srɛ Awurade fa saa kuro yi a woayi yi, ne saa Asɔredan a masi de wo din ato so yi ho a,
45 Then listen in the heavens to their prayer and their request, and help their cause.
ɛnneɛ, tie wɔn mpaeɛbɔ firi soro, na yɛ wɔn abisadeɛ ma wɔn.
46 Suppose that they sin against you, since there is no one who does not sin, and suppose that you are angry with them and deliver them to the enemy, so that the enemy takes them away captive to their land, whether distant or near.
“Sɛ wɔyɛ bɔne tia wo a, na hwan na ɔnyɛɛ bɔne da? Wo bo bɛfu wɔn, na woama wɔn atamfoɔ adi wɔn so, na wɔafa wɔn nnommum de wɔn akɔ ananasase a ɛwɔ akyiri anaasɛ ɛbɛn so.
47 Then suppose that they realize they are in the land where they have been exiled, and suppose that they repent and seek favor from you from the land of their captors. Suppose that they say, 'We have acted perversely and sinned. We have behaved wickedly.'
Na saa ahɔhosase no so, wɔde ahonu sane ba wo nkyɛn, bɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, ‘Yɛayɛ bɔne; yɛayɛ amumuyɛsɛm ne atirimuɔdensɛm,’
48 Suppose that they return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies who captured them, and suppose that they pray to you toward their land, which you gave to their ancestors, and toward the city that you chose, and toward the house that I have built for your name.
Na sɛ wɔde wɔn akoma ne wɔn kra nyinaa dane ba wo nkyɛn, na wɔbɔ mpaeɛ ma asase a wode maa wɔn agyanom no ho, saa kuro a woayi ne saa Asɔredan a masi de ahyɛ wo din animuonyam yi a,
49 Then from heaven, the place where you live, listen to their prayer and their request for help, and you will make matters right for them.
ɛnneɛ, tie wɔn mpaeɛbɔ firi soro baabi a wote hɔ. Yɛ wɔn apɛdeɛ ma wɔn,
50 Forgive your people who have sinned against you, and all their transgressions that they have committed against you, and make them objects of compassion before their conquerors, and cause their conquerors to have compassion on them.
na fa wo nkurɔfoɔ a wɔayɛ bɔne atia wo no bɔne kyɛ wɔn. Ma wɔn nnommumfafoɔ nhunu wɔn mmɔbɔ,
51 They are your people whom you have chosen, whom you rescued out of Egypt as if from the middle of a furnace where iron is forged.
ɛfiri sɛ, wɔyɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ, wʼagyapadeɛ sononko a woyii wɔn firii Misraim dadenane fononoo mu.
52 May your eyes be open to the request of your servant and to the requests of your people Israel, to listen to them whenever they cry to you.
“Bue wʼani ma mʼabisadeɛ ne wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ abisadeɛ. Ɛberɛ biara a wɔbɛsu afrɛ wo no, tie wɔn, na gye wɔn so.
53 For you separated them from among all the peoples of the earth to belong to you and receive your promises, just as you explained by Moses your servant, when you brought our fathers out of Egypt, Lord Yahweh.”
Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛberɛ a woyii yɛn agyanom firii Misraim no, Ao, Otumfoɔ Awurade, woka kyerɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Mose sɛ, woate Israel afiri aman a aka nyinaa a ɛwɔ asase yi so ho sɛ, wɔnyɛ wʼagyapadeɛ sononko.”
54 So it was that when Solomon had finished praying all this prayer and request to Yahweh, he arose from before the altar of Yahweh, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread out toward the heavens.
Ɛberɛ a Salomo wiee saa mpaeɛbɔ ne nʼabisadeɛ a ɔde danee Awurade yi no, ɔgyinaa Awurade afɔrebukyia anim, baabi a na ɔtaa bu nkotodwe, na ɔpagya ne nsa kyerɛ soro.
55 He stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel in a loud voice, saying,
Ɔgyinaa hɔ teaam, hyiraa Israelfoɔ no so sɛ,
56 “May Yahweh be praised, who has given rest to his people Israel, keeping all his promises. Not one word has failed out of all Yahweh's good promises that he made with Moses his servant.
“Ayɛyie nka Awurade a wama ne nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ ɔhome, sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ ho bɔ no. Ɛbɔ nwanwa a ɔnam Mose so daa no adi no mu baako koraa nni hɔ a amma mu.
57 May Yahweh our God be with us, as he was with our ancestors. May he never leave us or forsake us,
Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, nka yɛn ho sɛdeɛ ɔkaa yɛn agyanom ho no; ɔrennya yɛn da biara da.
58 that he may incline our hearts to him, to live in all his ways and keep his commandments and his regulations and his statutes, which he commanded our fathers.
Ɔmma yɛnya ɔpɛ a yɛde bɛyɛ nʼapɛdeɛ wɔ biribiara mu, na yɛnni mmara ne ahyɛdeɛ a ɔhyɛ de maa yɛn agyanom no nyinaa so.
59 Let these words I have spoken, by which I have made request before Yahweh, be near Yahweh our God day and night, so that he may help the cause of his servant and the cause of his people Israel, as every day will require;
Na ma ɔnkae saa nsɛm a magyina so de abɔ saa mpaeɛ wɔ Awurade anim yi daa awia ne anadwo, sɛdeɛ Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, bɛtie me ne Israelfoɔ, na wayɛ deɛ ɛhia yɛn daa ama yɛn.
60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that Yahweh, he is God, and there is no other God!
Ma nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa nhunu sɛ Awurade yɛ Onyankopɔn, na onyame foforɔ biara nni hɔ.
61 Therefore let your heart be true to Yahweh our God, to walk in his statutes and keep his commandments, as on this day.”
Na mo a moyɛ ne nkurɔfoɔ no, nni Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, no nokorɛ daa. Monni ne mmara ne nʼahyɛdeɛ so daa, sɛdeɛ moyɛ no ɛnnɛ yi.”
62 So the king and all Israel with him offered sacrifices to Yahweh.
Na ɔhene no ne Israelfoɔ a wɔka ne ho no bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade.
63 Solomon offered a sacrifice of fellowship offerings to Yahweh: twenty-two thousand oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the people of Israel dedicated the house of Yahweh.
Salomo bɔɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade. Nʼafɔrebɔdeɛ no yɛ anantwie ɔpeduonu mmienu ne nnwan ɔpeha aduonu. Na ɔhene no ne Israel nyinaa daa Asɔredan no adi, de maa Awurade.
64 The same day the king set apart the middle of the courtyard in front of the temple of Yahweh, for there he offered the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the fellowship offerings, because the bronze altar that was before Yahweh was too small to receive the burnt offering, the grain offerings, and the fat of the fellowship offerings.
Saa ɛda no ara, ɔhene no daa Asɔredan no adihɔ no mfimfini a ɛka Awurade Asɔredan ho no adi. Ɔbɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ, atokoɔ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ ho sradeɛ no wɔ hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, na kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Awurade anim no sua dodo sɛ ɛbɛtumi akora afɔrebɔdeɛ bebree.
65 So Solomon held the feast at that time, and all Israel with him, a great assembly, from Lebo Hamath to the brook of Egypt, before Yahweh our God for seven days and also for another seven days, a total of fourteen days.
Na Salomo ne Israel nyinaa boom, dii Dwanekɔbea Afahyɛ wɔ Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, anim. Nnipadɔm no firi Lebo Hamat wɔ atifi fam kɔsi Misraim asuwa wɔ anafoɔ fam, na wɔbaeɛ. Afahyɛ yi kɔɔ so ara nnafua dunan. Emu nnanson na wɔde daa afɔrebukyia no adi, ɛnna wɔde mu nnanson nso dii Dwanekɔbea Afahyɛ no.
66 On the eighth day he sent the people away, and they blessed the king and went to their homes with joyful and glad hearts for all the goodness that Yahweh had shown to David, his servant, and to Israel, his people.
Afahyɛ no twaam no, Salomo maa ɔmanfoɔ no kɔɔ wɔn kurom. Wɔrekɔ no nyinaa na wɔrehyira ɔhene no. Na wɔn nyinaa nyaa ahosɛpɛ ne ahotɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade ne ne ɔsomfoɔ Dawid ne Israelfoɔ adi no yie.
