Mmɛbusɛm 4
1 Me mma, montie me, montie agya nkyerɛkyerɛ; monyɛ aso na moanya nteaseɛ.
E HOOLOHE mai, e na keiki, i ke ao ana a ka makua, E haliu mai hoi e ike i ka naauao.
2 Mema mo adenim a ɛkɔ anim, enti monnyaa me nkyerɛkyerɛ mu.
No ka mea, he ike pono ka'u e haawi aku nei ia oukou, Mai haalele oukou i ko'u kanawai.
3 Meyɛ ɔbabanin wɔ mʼagya fie, meda so yɛ abadomaa na me maame di me bakorɔ no,
No ka mea, he keiki no wau a ko'u makua, He malamia, a he hanaukahi imua o ko'u makuwahine.
4 ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Ma me nsɛm nni wʼakoma mu dɛm di me nkyerɛkyerɛ so na wobɛnya nkwa.
Ao mai la oia, i mai la ia'u, E hoopaa kou naau i ka'u olelo; E malama hoi i ka'u mau kauoha i ola oe.
5 Nya nyansa, nya nteaseɛ; mma wo werɛ mfiri me nsɛm anaa ntwe wo ho mfiri ho.
E imi i ka naauao, e imi hoi i ka ike a loaa; Mai hoopoina, mai waiho wale i na olelo a ko'u waha.
6 Nnya nyansa hɔ, na ɛbɛbɔ wo ho ban; dɔ no, na ɛbɛhwɛ wo so.
Mai haalele oe ia mea, a nana oe e malama mai; E aloha oe ia ia, a nana oe e kiai mai.
7 Nyansa boro biribiara so; enti hwehwɛ nyansa. Ɛwom sɛ ne boɔ te sɛ wʼahodeɛ nyinaa deɛ nanso nya nteaseɛ.
O ka naauao ka mea nui, e imi i ka naauao a loaa: Me na mea a pau au e imi ai, E imi pu i ka ike a loaa.
8 Di no nni na ɛbɛpagya wo; yɛ no atuu, na ɛbɛhyɛ wo animuonyam.
E hoonani oe ia ia, nana oe e hookiekie ae; E hoohanohano ia oe i kou wa e hoopaa aku ai ia ia
9 Ɔde nkonimdie nhwiren hankra bɛgu wo tiri so na wama wo ahenkyɛ a ɛyɛ fɛ.”
E haawi mai ia i lei aloha no kou poe; He lei hanohano hoi kana e haawi mai ai ia oe.
10 Me ba, tie na fa deɛ meka no, na wo nkwanna bɛyɛ bebree.
E hoolohe mai, e kuu keiki, e hoopaa i ka'u olelo; A e nui ae hoi ia oe na makahiki o kou ola ana.
11 Mɛkyerɛ wo nyansakwan na mede wo afa akwan a ɛtene so.
E ao aku au ia oe ma ka aoao naauao, E kuhikuhi hoi au ia oe ma ko ala pololei.
12 Sɛ wonante a, wʼanammɔntuo bɛkɔ yɛɛ na sɛ wotu mmirika a, worensunti.
I kou hele ana, aole e hihia kou kapuwai; A ina o holo oe aole o hina.
13 Di nkyerɛkyerɛ so; na nnyaa mu bɔ ho ban yie, ɛfiri sɛ ɛyɛ wo nkwa.
E hoopaa oe i ke aoia mai, mai hookuu oe; E malama oe ia ia, no ka mea, he ola ia nou.
14 Ntu wo nan nsi amumuyɛfoɔ kwan so na nnante abɔnefoɔ kwan so.
Ma ke alanui o ka poe hewa, mai hele oe, Mai hele hoi ma ka aoao o ka poe hewa.
15 Kwati no, ntu kwan mfa so; dane firi so na kɔ wo baabi.
E haalele ia wahi, mai maalo ilaila, E huli ae mai ia wahi mai, a e hele aku.
16 Ɛfiri sɛ wɔntumi nna kɔsi sɛ wɔbɛyɛ bɔne; na wɔntɔ nko kɔsi sɛ wɔbɛma obi ahwe ase.
No ka mea, aole o lakou hiamoe, ke hana hewa ole aku; Ua lele hoi ka hiamoe, ke hoohina ole ia kekahi e lakou.
17 Amumuyɛsɛm yɛ wɔn aduane, na basabasayɛ yɛ wɔn nsa.
No ka mea, ai lakou i ka berena no ka hewa, Inu hoi lakou i ka waina no ke kaili wale,
18 Teneneefoɔ kwan te sɛ adekyeɛ hann a ɛdi ɛkan, ɛkɔ so hyerɛn yie kɔduru awia ketee.
Aka, o ke ala o ka poe pono, ua like ia me ka malamalama e aa ana, E mahuahua mau ana i ke awakea loa.
19 Nanso, amumuyɛfoɔ kwan te sɛ esum kabii; wɔnnim deɛ ɛma wɔsunti.
O ka aoao o ka poe hewa, ua like ia me ka pouli: Aole i ike i ko lakou mea e hina ai.
20 Me ba, yɛ aso ma deɛ meka; tie me nsɛm no yie.
E kuu keiki e, e haliu mai ka'u olelo, I ka'u olelo hoi o huli mai ai i ka pepeiao.
21 Mma ɛmfiri wʼani so, fa sie wʼakoma mu;
Mai noho a nalowale ia mai kou mau maka aku; E malama oe ia iloko o kou naau.
22 ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ nkwa ma wɔn a wɔhunu ne akwahosan ma onipadua no nyinaa.
No ka mea, he ola ia no na mea i loaa'i ia, He laau hoola hoi no ke kino a pau.
23 Ne nyinaa akyi, bɔ wʼakoma ho ban, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛno ne wo nkwa asutire.
E kiai oe i kou naau me ka malama loa; No ka mea, noloko olaila ka waipuna o ke ola.
24 Mma akontonkyesɛm mfiri wʼano; mma nkontomposɛm mmɛn wʼano koraa.
E waiho aku oe i ku waha wahahee wale, E haalele loa hoi i na lehelehe hoopunipuni.
25 Hwɛ wʼanim tee, na ma wʼani nkɔ deɛ ɛwɔ wʼanim no so.
I nana pono ae kou mau maka, I pololei hoi kou mau lihilihi mamua ou.
26 Bɔ ɛkwan tamaa ma wo nan na fa akwan a atim so.
E hoopololei ae i ke ala no kou mau kapuwai, A e pololei hoi kou hele ana a pau.
27 Mmane mfa nifa anaa benkum; twe wo nan firi bɔne ho.
Mai huli ae oe i ka lima akau aole hoi i ka lima hema; E huli nae kou wawae mai ka hewa aku.
