Due, asase a ntaban nnyegyeeɛ wɔ so wɔ Kus nsubɔntene ho,
2 ʻA koe ʻoku kouna atu ʻene kau talafekau ʻi he tahi, ʻi he ngaahi vaka papailusi ʻi he fukahi vai, ʻo pehē, ʻAlu, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau talafekau veʻe vave, ki he puleʻanga lōloa mo lafalafa, ki he kakai fakamanavahē talu mei honau kamataʻanga ʻo aʻu ki heni; ko e puleʻanga kuo fua ʻaki ʻae afo pea faʻa molomoloki, ʻaia kuo maumau ʻe he ngaahi vaitafe!

4 He naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Te u mālōlō, pea te u tokangaʻi hoku fale ʻo hangē ko e mafana hili ʻae ʻuha, pea hangē ko ha ʻao ʻoe hahau ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ututaʻu.”
Yei ne deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛ me, “Mɛtena mʼatenaeɛ na mahwɛ biribiara dinn. Mɛyɛ dinn te sɛ owia a ɛrebɔ, te sɛ ɛbɔ a ɛsi wɔ otwa berɛ mu.”
5 ʻI he teʻeki ai hoko ʻae ututaʻu, ʻaia ʻoku haohaoa ai hono fua, pea ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ke momoho ʻae kālepi mei hono fisi, te ne fakatou tuʻusi ʻae ngaahi huli ʻaki ʻae hele tuʻusi, pea ʻave mo tuʻusi hifo ʻae ngaahi vaʻa.
Ɛnnya nnuruu twaberɛ a nhyerɛnne berɛ atwam no, na nhwiren no anyini adane bobe no, wɔde nsɔsɔ bɛtwitwa mman no; wɔbɛtwitwa mman a ɛredendan no akɔ.
6 ʻE tuku fakataha ia ki he manupuna ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga, pea ki he fanga manu fekai ʻoe kelekele: ko e ngaahi manupuna te nau kai ai ʻi he faʻahitaʻu mafana, pea ʻe kai ai ʻae manu fekai kotoa pē ʻoe kelekele ʻi he faʻahitaʻu momoko.
Wɔbɛgya wɔn nyinaa ama bepɔ so nnomaa a wɔkum mmoa we, ne wiram mmoa; nnomaa no bɛdi wɔn nam wɔ ahuhuro ɛberɛ mu. Wiram mmoa bɛwe wɔn nam wɔ awɔ berɛ mu.
7 ʻI he kuonga ko ia ʻe ʻomi kia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻae meʻa foaki mei he fonua lōloa mo lafalafa, pea mei he kakai fakamanavahē talu mei honau tupuʻanga ʻo aʻu mai; ko e puleʻanga kuo fua ʻaki ʻae afo pea faʻa molomoloki, ʻaia kuo maumauʻi ʻe he ngaahi vaitafe; ki he potu ʻoe huafa ʻo Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ki he moʻunga ko Saione.”
