Kɛ́ wɔkɛ Biblia mli shishitoo mlai tsu saji ahe nii yɛ nɛkɛ gbɛ nɔ lɛ, no tsɔɔ akɛ anɔkwafoi ji wɔ. Ekolɛ, be ni yi aawula shi po lɛ, wɔbaana akɛ asomoaŋ, ayeko wɔ sane fɔŋ.

15 Nɔ kroko ni he hiaa waa ni wɔbaanyɛ wɔkase yɛ Yosef sane lɛ mli lɛ kɔɔ wekukpaa ni yɔɔ ekɛ Yehowa teŋ lɛ he. Yɛ afii 13 ni ekɛna amane lɛ mli fɛɛ lɛ, Yosef susu nii ahe tamɔ Yehowa.
