1 A PAU keia mau mea i ka hanaia, hele mai na luna ia'u, i mai la, O na kanaka o ka Iseraela, a me na kahuna, a me na Levi, aole lakou i hookaawale ia lakou iho mai na kanaka o na aina aku, e hana ana no e like me na mea hoopailua o ka Kanaana, o ka Heta, o ka Periza, o ka Iebusa, o ka Amona, a me ka Aigupita, a me ka Amora.
Na Yudafoɔ ntuanofoɔ no baa me nkyɛn bɛkaa sɛ, “Israelfoɔ bebree, na mpo, asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ ntwee wɔn ho mfirii nnipa afoforɔ bi a wɔte asase no so no ho. Wɔdi akyiwadeɛ a na Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Yebusifoɔ, Amonfoɔ, Moabfoɔ, Misraimfoɔ ne Amorifoɔ yɛ no akyi.
2 A ua lawe lakou i na kaikamahine a lakou i wahine na lakou, a na ka lakou mau keikikane; a ua hui pu ka poe laa ia lakou iho me na kanaka e na aina; a o na haku, a me na luna, o lakou ke kumu o keia hewa.
Na Israelfoɔ mmarima ware firi saa nnipa no mu, na wɔpɛ yerenom firi wɔn mu, ma wɔn mmammarima. Enti, mfrafrawadeɛ no ama nnipa kronkron no ho agu fi. Deɛ ɛsɛe asɛm no koraa ne sɛ, mpanimfoɔ ne ntuanofoɔ no koraa na wɔdi ho fɔ kɛseɛ.”
3 A lohe au i keia mea, haehae iho la au i kuu lole komo, a me kuu aahu, a huki aku la i ke oho o kuu poo, a me kuu umiumi, a noho pilihua iho la au.

4 Alaila houluuluia ae la io'u nei ka poe a pau i haalulu i na olelo a ke Akua o ka Iseraela, no ka hewa o ka poe i pio; a noho pilihua iho la au, a hiki i ka mohai ahiahi.
Na wɔn a wɔnyaa ayamhyehyeɛ wɔ Israel Onyankopɔn asɛm ho no bɛtenaa me nkyɛn wɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ nokorɛ a wɔanni no ho. Metenaa ase ahodwirie so, kɔsii anwummerɛ afɔrebɔberɛ.
5 A i ka mohai ahiahi ku ae la au mai kuu kanmaha ana, a haehae iho la i kuu lole komo, a me kuu aahu, kukuli iho la au, a hohola aku la i kuu mau lima ia Iehova i ko'u Akua.
Ɛduruu afɔrebɔberɛ no, mesɔre gyinaa baabi a na mete hɔ awerɛhoɔ mu a masunsuane mʼatadeɛ mu, na mebuu nkotodwe, pagyaa me nsa kyerɛɛ Awurade, me Onyankopɔn.

Mebɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ: “Ao me Onyankopɔn, mʼani awu yie, na mafɛre sɛ merepagya mʼani akyerɛ wo. Na yɛn bɔne asoa kɔ soro sene yɛn enti na yɛn afɔdie aduru ɔsorosoro.
7 Mai ka manawa o ko makou poe makua, ua noho makou iloko o ka hewa nui, a hiki i keia manawa; a uo ko makou hewa, i haawiia makou, a me ko makou mau alii, a me ko makou poe kahuna, iloko o ka lima o na'lii o na aina e, i ka pahikaua, a i ka lawe pio ana, a i ka lukuia, a i ka hilahila o na maka, e like me ia i keia la.
