Wonyaa mmoa adidibea pa wɔ hɔ. Na asase no so dwo na basabasayɛ biara nni hɔ. Na Ham asefo no bi akɔtena Gedor fa mu hɔ dedaw.
41 And these who are written by name come in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and smite their tents, and the habitations that have been found there, and devote them to destruction unto this day, and dwell in their stead, because pasture for their flock [is] there.
Yudahene Hesekia bere so no, Simeon ntuanofo no ko dii hɔ so, sɛee Ham ne Meunifo afi pasaa. Wokum obiara a na ɔte hɔ, faa asase no, efisɛ, na wɔpɛ sɛ wonya mmoa didibea pa no.
