5 “Vakai,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “Te u ʻomi ʻae ilifia kiate koe, meiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku takatakai koe; pea ʻe kapusi atu ʻakimoutolu ʻae tangata taki taha; pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻomi ʻe ha taha ʻaia kuo hola.
Mede ehu bɛba wo so; ɛbɛfiri wɔn a wɔatwa wo ho ahyia no nyinaa,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, Asafo Awurade no. “Wɔbɛpam mo nyinaa, na obiara remmoaboa akobɔfoɔ ano.
6 Pea hili ia te u toe ʻomi ʻae fakapōpula ʻoe kakai ʻAmoni, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.”
“Nanso, akyire no, mɛsane de Amonfoɔ adenya ama wɔn,” sei na Awurade seɛ.
7 Ko e meʻa ʻoku kau ki ʻItomi: ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; “ʻIkai ʻoku kei toe ʻae poto ʻi Timani? Kuo ʻosi ʻae fakakaukau ʻi he kau fakapotopoto? Kuo mole ʻenau poto?
