1 “Wɔde dadeɛ twerɛdua akrukyire Yuda bɔne, dadeɛ twerɛdua a ano te sɛ twerɛboɔ, wɔ wɔn akoma apono so ne wɔn afɔrebukyia mmɛn so.

2 Mpo, wɔn mma kae wɔn afɔrebukyia ne Asera afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ nnua a adendan no nkyɛn ne nkokoɔ atentene no so.

3 Me mmepɔ a ɛwɔ asase no so ne mo ahonyadeɛ ne mo akoradeɛ nyinaa, mede bɛma sɛ afodeɛ, ɛne mo sorɔnsorɔmmea nso, ɛsiane mo ɔman no so bɔne enti.

5 Sei na Awurade seɛ, “Nnome nka deɛ ɔde ne ho to onipa so, deɛ ɔde ne ho to ɔhonam so pɛ nʼahoɔden na nʼakoma dane firi Awurade ho.

6 Ɔbɛyɛ sɛ wira a ɛwɔ nsase tamaa so; sɛ yiedie ba a, ɔrenhunu, ɔbɛtena anweatam a awoɔ so, ne nkyene asase a obi nte soɔ so.

7 “Nhyira nka onipa a ɔde ne ho to Awurade so, na nʼanidasoɔ wɔ ne mu.

9 Akoma yɛ nnaadaa sen adeɛ nyinaa na ano nni aduro. Hwan na ɔbɛte nʼase?

10 “Me Awurade, mepɛɛpɛɛ akoma mu na mehwehwɛ adwene mu, gyina so de tua onipa ka sɛdeɛ nʼabrabɔ teɛ.”

11 Sɛdeɛ akokɔhwedeɛ a ɔhwane nkosua a ɛnyɛ ɔno na ɔtoeɛ no, saa ara na onipa a ɔnya sika a ɔmfa ɛkwan pa so teɛ. Sɛ wɔbu ne nkwa nna mu mmienu a wɔbɛgya no mu, na awieeɛ no, ne kwasea bɛda adi.

12 Animuonyam ahennwa a ɛsi kronkronbea hɔ no firi ahyɛaseɛ no, ɛhɔ na yɛsom.

13 Ao, Awurade, Israel anidasoɔ, wɔn a wɔpa wʼakyi nyinaa ani bɛwu. Wɔn a wɔtwe wɔn ho firi wo ho no, wɔbɛsie wɔn ɛfiri sɛ wɔagya Awurade a ɔyɛ nkwa asutire.

14 Sa me yadeɛ Ao, Awurade, na me ho bɛtɔ me; gye me na mɛnya nkwa, na wo ne ɔbaako a mekamfo wo.

15 Wɔbisa me daa sɛ, “Ɛhe na Awurade asɛm no wɔ? Ma ɛmmra mu seesei!”

16 Mennwane mfirii mʼadwuma sɛ wo dwanhwɛfoɔ; wonim sɛ mempɛɛ abasamutuo da. Deɛ ɛfiri mʼanom yɛ pefee wɔ wʼanim.

17 Nhunahuna me; wo ne me dwanekɔbea wɔ amanehunu da.

19 Yei ne deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me, “Kɔ na kɔgyina nnipa no ɛpono a Yuda ahemfo di hɔ ahyɛnfirie no; kɔgyina Yerusalem apono a aka no nso ano.

20 Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Montie Awurade asɛm, Ao Yuda ahemfo ne Yudafoɔ nyinaa ne wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem a wɔfa saa apono yi mu.
