5 Thou schalt loue thi Lord God of al thin herte, and of al thi soule, and of al thi strengthe.
Dɔ Awurade wo Nyankopɔn fi wo koma nyinaa mu ne wo kra nyinaa mu ne wʼahoɔden nyinaa mu.
6 And these wordis whiche Y comaunde to thee to dai, schulen be in thin herte;
Momma saa mmaransɛm a mede rema wo nnɛ yi ntena mo koma mu.
7 and thou schalt telle tho to thi sones, and thou schalt thenke on tho, sittynge in thin hows, and goynge in the weie, slepynge, and rysinge.
Momfa nhyɛ mo mma mu. Sɛ mote fie anaa monam ɔkwan so, sɛ moda hɔ anaa mosɔre a, monka ho asɛm.
8 And thou schalt bynde tho as a signe in thin hond; and tho schulen be, and schulen be moued bifor thin iyen; and thou schalt write tho in the lyntel,

10 And whanne thi Lord God hath brouyt thee in to the lond, for which he swoor to thi fadris, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and hath youe to thee grete citees, and beeste, whiche thou bildidist not,

13 be war diligentli, lest thou foryete the Lord, that ladde thee out of the lond of Egipt, fro the hows of seruage. Thou schalt drede thi Lord God, and thou schalt serue hym aloone, `bi seruyce due to God onely, and thou schalt swere bi his name.
Ɛsɛ sɛ musuro Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, na mosom ɔno nko ara. Ne din nko ara na momfa nka ntam.
14 Ye schulen not go aftir alien goddis, of alle hethen men that ben `in youre cumpas;
Munnni anyame foforo akyi; anyame a wɔyɛ nnipa a wɔatwa mo ho ahyia no anyame no;
15 for God is a feruent louyere, thi Lord God is in the myddis of thee, lest ony tyme the `strong veniaunce of thi Lord God be wrooth ayens thee, and do awei thee fro `the face of the erthe.
na Awurade mo Nyankopɔn a ɔwɔ mo ntam no yɛ Onyankopɔn ninkufo a nʼabufuw no bɛhyew mo, na ɔbɛsɛe mo afi asase no so.
16 Thou schalt not tempte thi Lord God, as thou temptidist in the place of temptyng.
Monnsɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, nhwɛ sɛnea moyɛe bere a na mowɔ Masa no.
17 Kepe thou the comaundementis of thi Lord God, and the witnessyngis, and cerymonyes, whiche he comaundide to thee;
Ɛsɛ sɛ mudi Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, ahyɛde ne nea ɛwɔ mmara a ɔde ama mo no mu no so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
18 and do thou that that is plesaunt and good in the siyt of the Lord, that it be wel to thee, and that thou entre, and welde the beste lond, of which the Lord swoor to thi fadris,
Monyɛ de ɛteɛ na eye wɔ Awurade ani so na biribiara awie mo yiye. Na moakɔ akɔfa asase pa a Awurade hyɛɛ ho bɔ kyerɛɛ mo agyanom no,
19 that he schulde do awey alle thin enemyes bifor thee, as he spak.

20 And whanne thi sone schal axe thee to morewe, that is, in tyme comyng, and schal seie, What wolen these witnessyngis, and cerymonyes, and domes to hem silf, whiche oure Lord God comaundide to vs?
Daakye bi, sɛ mo mma bisa mo se, “Saa mmara ne nʼahyɛde a Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn, de ama mo yi ase ne dɛn?”
21 thou schalt seie to hym, We weren `seruauntis of Farao in Egipt, and the Lord ledde vs out of Egipt, in strong hond;

22 and he dide myraclis, and grete wondris, and werste, `that is, moost peyneful veniaunces, in Egipt, ayens Farao and al his hows, in oure siyt.
Yɛn ani tua Awurade nsɛnkyerɛnne ne anwonwade akɛse na ɛyɛ hu a ɔyɛ tiaa Misraim, Farao ne ne nkurɔfo nyinaa.
23 And he ledde vs out therof, that he schulde yyue to vs led yn, the lond of which he swoor to oure fadris.
Oyii yɛn fii Misraim sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, obetumi de asase a wahyɛ yɛn agyanom ho bɔ no ama yɛn.
24 And the Lord comaundide to vs, that we do alle these lawful thingis, and drede oure Lord God, that it be wel to vs in alle the daies of oure lijf, as it is to dai.
Na Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn hyɛɛ yɛn sɛ yenni mmara no nyinaa so na yɛmfa obu ne nidi mma no sɛnea ɛbɛma asi yɛn yiye daakye sɛnea ɛte nnɛ yi.
25 And he schal be merciful to vs, if we schulen do and kepe alle hise heestis, bifor oure Lord God, as he comaundide to vs.
Efisɛ sɛ yedi mmara no nyinaa a Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn, de ama yɛn no so a, ɛbɛyɛ yɛn trenee.”
