1 Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Namni biraa ishee jaallatee isheen sagaagaltuu taatu iyyuu, ati dhaqiitii ammas niitii keetti jaalala kee argisiisi. Akkuma Waaqayyoo utuma isaan waaqota biraatti deebiʼanii bixxillee wayinii jaallatanuu Israaʼeloota jaallate sana atis ishee jaalladhu.”
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Kɔ na kɔfa wo yere no bio. Fa no sane bra wo nkyɛn, na dɔ no. Ɛmfa ho sɛ ɔfoforɔ bi dɔ no anaa sɛ ɔyɛ ɔwaresɛefoɔ. Dɔ no, sɛdeɛ Awurade da so dɔ Israel a, mpo, nnipa no adane wɔn ho kɔ anyame foforɔ nkyɛn, na wɔma wɔn bobe aba taterɛ no.”
