Ko ia naʻa mau ʻaukai ai pea kole ki homau ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni pea naʻa ne talia lelei ʻakimautolu.
24 Na miyii asɔfo no ntuanofo dumien a wɔne Serebia, Hasabia ne asɔfo afoforo du a wɔka wɔn ho
Pea ne u fili ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua ʻoe kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, ko Selipea, mo Hasapea, mo hona kāinga ʻe toko hongofulu,

Mo e ipu luoluo koula foki ʻe uofulu, ʻoe talami ʻe taha afe: mo e ipu ʻe ua ʻoe kapa lelei, ʻo tatau mo e koula hono maʻongoʻonga.
28 Na meka kyerɛɛ saa asɔfo yi se, “Wɔayi mo ne saa agyapade yi nyinaa asi nkyɛn sɛ ade kronkron ama Awurade. Saa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ yi yɛ koma pa mu afɔrebɔde a wɔde rema Awurade, yɛn agyanom Nyankopɔn.
Pea ne u pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku māʻoniʻoni ʻakimoutolu kia Sihova; ʻoku māʻoniʻoni mo e ngaahi ipu foki; pea ko e siliva mo e koula ko e meʻa ʻatu loto lelei pe ia kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻetau ngaahi tamai.
29 Monhwɛ saa agyapade yi so yiye, na momfa mma asɔfo mpanyin, Lewifo ne Israel ntuanofo wɔ adekorae a ɛwɔ Yerusalem asɔredan no mu no.”
Ko ia mou leʻohi, mo tauhi ia, kaeʻoua ke toe fakatatau ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau Livai, mo e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe ngaahi mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi Selūsalema, ʻi he ngaahi potu fale ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova.”
30 Enti asɔfo no ne Lewifo no gye too wɔn ho so sɛ wɔde saa Onyankopɔn asɔre sika no bɛkɔ Yerusalem.
Pea naʻe pehē pe ʻae maʻu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai hono mamafa ʻoe siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi ipu ke ʻomi ia ki Selūsalema ki he fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua.
31 Yefii Ahawa Suka atenae hɔ Ab ɔsram (bɛyɛ Oforisuo) da a ɛto so dunkron, sii mu kɔɔ Yerusalem. Na Onyankopɔn nsa no bɔɔ yɛn ho ban, gyee yɛn fii atamfo ne akwamukafo nsam.
Pea naʻa mau toki hiki mei he vaitafe ʻo ʻAheva ʻi hono hongofulu ma ua ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina, ke ʻalu ki Selūsalema: pea naʻe ʻiate kimautolu ʻae nima ʻo homau ʻOtua, pea naʻa ne taukapoʻi ʻakimautolu mei he nima ʻoe fili, pea mo kinautolu naʻe toitoiʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he hala.
32 Enti yekoduu Yerusalem dwoodwoo, homee wɔ hɔ nnansa.
Pea naʻa mau hoko ki Selūsalema, pea nofo ki ai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu.
33 Yeduu no, ne nnaanan so no, wɔkarii dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne aboɔdenne a aka no wɔ Onyankopɔn asɔredan no mu, na wɔde hyɛɛ Uria babarima ɔsɔfo Meremot ne Pinehas babarima Eleasar ne Yesua babarima Yosabad ne Binui babarima Noadia a wɔn baanu no yɛ Lewifo no nsa.
Pea ko eni ʻi hono fā ʻoe ʻaho naʻe fakatatau ai ʻae siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi ipu, ʻi he fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua ʻi he nima ʻo Milemoti ko e foha ʻo ʻUlia ko e taulaʻeiki: pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻa ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo Finiasi; pea naʻe ʻiate kinaua ʻa Sosapati ko e foha ʻo Sesua, mo Noatia ko e foha ʻo Pinui, ko e kau Livai;
34 Wɔkan biribiara dodow, karii mu duru, kyerɛw biribiara.
Naʻe lau ʻae mamafa ʻoe meʻa taki taha kotoa pē: pea naʻe tohi hono mamafa kotoa pē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia.
35 Na wɔn a wofi nnommum mu bae no de anantwi dumien, adwennini aduɔkron asia ne nguantenmma aduɔson ason, bɔɔ ɔhyew afɔre, maa Israel Nyankopɔn. Afei, wɔmaa mmirekyi dumien sɛ bɔne ho afɔrebɔde. Wɔde eyinom nyinaa bae sɛ ɔhyew afɔre maa Awurade.

36 Wɔde ɔhene no mmara no maa ne mpanyimfo ne amradofo a wɔwɔ asu Eufrate agya no, na wɔn nyinaa yɛɛ baako boaa Onyankopɔn asɔredan no si.
