Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

7 Ofi omununkum dum mu kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn; wodii mmara ne ahyɛde a ɔmaa wɔn no so.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance [that] he gave them.

Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.
