7 Meyɛ hann, na mebɔ sum. Mede yiyedi ba na mede ɔhaw ba; Me, Awurade, na meyɛ eyinom nyinaa.
8 “Mo ɔsorosoro munhwie trenee ngu fam; momma emfi omununkum mu ntɔ momma asase mu mmue kɛse, na nkwagye mpue mfi mu, na trenee ne no nnyin; Me, Awurade na mayɛ.
9 “Nnome nka nea ɔne ne Yɛfo ham ɛnka nea ɔmfra te sɛ kyɛmfɛre a ɛfra nea egugu fam mu. Dɔte betumi abisa ɔnwemfo se, ‘Dɛn na woreyɛ yi?’ Wʼadwuma betumi abisa wo se ‘Wunni nsa’?
10 Nnome nka nea ose nʼagya se ‘Dɛn na woawo yi?’ Anaa obisa ne na se, ‘Dɛn na wokyem woe?’
11 “Sɛɛ na Awurade se, Israel Ɔkronkronni ne ne Yɛfo; Nea ɛfa nneɛma a ɛreba ho no, wubisa me nsɛm a ɛfa me mma ho, anaa wohyɛ me wɔ me nsa ano adwuma ho?
12 Ɛyɛ me na meyɛɛ asase na mebɔɔ adesamma guu so. Me ara me nsa na mede trɛw ɔsoro mu; nsoromma ahorow nyinaa hyɛ mʼase.

14 Sɛɛ na Awurade se: “Nneɛma a efi Misraim ne aguade a efi Kus, ne Sebafo atenten no, wɔbɛba wo nkyɛn abɛyɛ wo dea; wobedi wʼakyi brɛoo aba a wogu nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn mu. Wobebu nkotodwe wʼanim na wɔasrɛ wo aka se, ‘Ampa ara, Onyankopɔn ka wo ho, na obi nni hɔ; onyame biara nni hɔ.’”
15 Ampa ara, woyɛ Onyankopɔn a ɔde ne ho sie, Ao Onyankopɔn ne Israel Agyenkwa.
16 Wɔn a wɔyɛ ahoni nyinaa bɛfɛre na wɔn anim agu ase; wɔbɛbɔ mu akɔ animguase mu.
17 Nanso Awurade begye Israel nkwa, ɔde daapem nkwagye; wɔremma wʼani nwu na wʼanim rengu ase bio kosi daapem.
18 Na sɛɛ na Awurade se, nea ɔbɔɔ ɔsorosoro no ɔno ne Onyankopɔn; nea ɔmaa asase, ne tebea na ɔbɔe no, ɔno na ɔtoo ne fapem; wammɔ no sɛ so nna hɔ kwa, mmom, ɔyɛe se nnipa ntena so, ɔka se: “Mene Awurade, na obi nni hɔ.
19 Menkasaa wɔ kokoa mu, mfi asase so baabi a aduru sum; menka nkyerɛɛ Yakob asefo se, ‘Monhwehwɛ me na munhu me.’ Me Awurade, meka nokware no; meka nea eye.
20 “Mommoaboa mo ho ano na mommra; munhyia mu, mo aguanfo a mufi amanaman so. Wɔn a wonnim de na wɔsoa nnua ahoni de kyinkyin wɔn a wɔbɔ anyame a wontumi nnye nkwa no mpae.
