Bio, mehwɛ mehunuu nhyɛsoɔ a ɛrekɔ so wɔ owia yi ase: Mehunuu wɔn a wɔredi wɔn nya no nisuo na wɔnni ɔwerɛkyekyefoɔ biara; tumi no wɔ wɔn nhyɛsofoɔ no nsam na wɔnni ɔwerɛkyekyefoɔ biara.
2 No ia mea, hoomaikai aku la au i ka poe make, ka poe i make i ka wa i hala aku nei, mamua o ka poe ola, ka poe ola i keia wa e noho nei kakou.
Na mekaa sɛ: Awufoɔ a wɔawuwu dada no ani gye sene ateasefoɔ; wɔn a wɔda so wɔ nkwa mu no.
3 Oia hoi, ua oi aku mamua o laua a elua ka maikai o ka mea i hanau ole ia, ka mea i ike ole i ka hana ino i hanaia malalo iho o ka la.
Na deɛ ɔyɛ sene baanu yi ne deɛ ɔnnya mmaeɛ, deɛ ɔnnya nhunuu bɔne a wɔyɛ wɔ owia yi ase.
4 Ua ike au i na mea luhi a pau, a me na hana pololei a pau, aia hoi, no ia mau mea, ua huahuaia mai ke kanaka e kona hoalauna. He mea lapuwale keia a me ka luhi hewa.
Na mehunuu sɛ adwumayɛ mu ɔbrɛ ne deɛ onipa tumi yɛ nyinaa nnyinasoɔ ne sɛ, nʼani bere ne yɔnko. Yei nso yɛ ahuhudeɛ, mmirika a wɔtu taa mframa.
5 Ua hookui mai la ka mea naaupo i kona mau lima, a ai iho la i kona io iho.
Ɔkwasea bobɔ ne nsa gu ne ho na ɔsɛe ne ho.
6 Ua oi aku ka piha ana o ka lima hookahi me ka noho oluolu mamua o ko na lima elua me ka hana kaumaha, a me ka luhi hewa.
Nsa ma baako a asomdwoeɛ wɔ mu yɛ sene nsa ma mmienu a ɔbrɛ bata ho. Ɛte sɛ deɛ wotaa mframa.
7 Alaila, haliu hou ae la au, a ike i ka mea lapuwale malalo iho o ka la.
Afei nso mehunuu biribi a ɛnka hwee wɔ owia yi ase:
8 Aia, he mea hookahi, aole ona lua, aole ana keiki, aole ona hoahanau; aka, o kana hana ana, aole e pau, aole pili iki kona mau maka i ka nana i ka waiwai, aole ia i ninau iho, No wai ko'u e hana nei, a i hoonele i ko'u uhane i ka maikai? He mea lapuwale keia, a he mea luhi loa no hoi.
Na ɔbarima bi wɔ hɔ a ɔyɛ ankonam; ɔnni ɔbabarima anaa onuabarima. Nʼadwumaden amma nʼawieeɛ da, nanso nʼani ansɔ nʼahonya. Ɔbisaa ne ho sɛ, “Na hwan na merebrɛ ama no, na adɛn enti na mede anigyeɛ kame me kra?” Yei nso yɛ ahuhudeɛ, ɛyɛ ɔhaw kwa.
9 Ua oi aku ka maikai o na mea elua mamua o ka mea hoohahi; no ka mea, ia laua ka uku maikai no ka laua hana ana.
Baanu yɛ sene ɔbaakofoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ wɔnya wɔn adwumayɛ so mfasoɔ a ɛsɔ ani:
10 No ka mea, ina e haule kekahi, e hoala kekahi i kona hoa; aka, auwe hoi ka mea hookahi i kona haule ana, no ka mea, aohe mea nana ia e hooala mai.
Sɛ ɔbaako hwe ase a ne yɔnko bɛtumi aboa no. Nanso onipa a ɔhwe ase a ɔnni ɔboafoɔ no yɛ mmɔbɔ.
11 Ina i moe pu na mea elua e pumehana no laua; aka hoi, pehea a mehana ai ka mea hookahi?
Bio, sɛ baanu da bɔ mu a, wɔka wɔn ho hye. Na ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na ɔkɔntenkorɔ aka ne ho hye?
12 Ina e hana eha ia mai kekahi, e hiki no i na mea elua ke lanakila maluna o ia mea, a o ke kaula kaakolu, aole ia e moku koke.
Ɔbaakofoɔ deɛ, wɔbɛtumi aka no ahyɛ nanso baanu tumi pere wɔn ti. Homa a wɔawɔ no mmɛsa no, wɔntumi ntete mu ntɛm.
13 Oi aku ka maikai o ke keiki ilihune me ka naauao, mamua o ke alii elemakule me ka naaupo, ka mea hiki ole ke aoia mai.
Ɔbabunu nyansafoɔ a ɔdi hia yɛ sene ɔhene akɔkoraa a ɔyɛ kwasea na ɔntie kɔkɔbɔ bio.
14 No ka mea, puka mai ia mai ka hale hooluhi o alii ai; aka, o ka mea i hanau alii ia ua lilo ia i mea ilihune.
Ebia na ɔbabunu no firi nneduafie na ɔbɛdii adeɛ anaasɛ wɔwoo no too ohia mu wɔ adehyeɛ abusua mu.
15 Ike iho la au i ka poe ola a pau e hele ana malalo iho o ka la, me ka lua o ke keiki, i ku i kona hakahaka.
Mehunuu sɛ wɔn a wɔtenaa ase na wɔnantee owia yi ase nyinaa dii ɔbabunu no akyi, deɛ ɔdii ɔhene no adeɛ no.
16 Aole pau i ka heluia na kanaka, ka poe mamua o lakou; a o ka poe mahope, aole lakou olioli ia ia. He mea lapu wale keia, a me ka luhi hewa.
Nnipa dɔm a wɔntumi nkane wɔn dii nʼakyi. Nanso nkyirimma no ani annye ne ho. Yei nso yɛ ahuhudeɛ, ɛte sɛ wotaa mframa.
