13 Afei bere a migu so rehyɛ nkɔm no, Benaia babarima Pelatia wui. Na mede mʼanim butuw fam suu dennen se, “Aa, Otumfo Awurade, wobɛtɔre Israel nkae yi ase koraa ana?”
14 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,

16 “Ɛno nti ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛwɔ mu sɛ mede wɔn kɔɔ akyirikyiri wɔ amanaman mu, hwetee wɔn guu nsase so de, nanso bere tiaa bi mu no meyɛɛ wɔn kronkronbea wɔ nsase a na wɔwɔ so no so.’

22 Afei kerubim no ne wɔn nkyimii trɛtrɛw wɔn ntaban mu, na Israel Nyankopɔn anuonyam konkɔn wɔn so.
23 Awurade anuonyam maa ne ho so fii kuropɔn no mu kogyinaa bepɔw a ɛwɔ apuei fam no atifi.
