“NYƐKPAA fai hu, ni nyɛnaaa, ejaakɛ fai fɔŋ nyɛkpaa . . . Nyɛtsia nyɛbɛŋkɛa Nyɔŋmɔ, ni eeetsi ebɛŋkɛ nyɛ.” (Yakobo 4:3, 8) Nakai Yesu kaselɔ Yakobo wiemɔi lɛ baanyɛ atsirɛ wɔ koni wɔsusu yiŋtoi ahewɔ ni wɔsɔleɔ lɛ he.

Sɔlemɔ jeee gbɛ ní wɔtsɔɔ nɔ wɔkɛɔ Nyɔŋmɔ nɔ ni he hiaa wɔ kɛkɛ.

Shi sɔlemɔ kɔɔ nibii babaoo he fe no.

Anɔkwa nanemɛi egbaaa sane yɛ be mli ni nɔ ko he hiaa amɛ pɛ kɛkɛ. Amɛyɛ amɛhe miishɛɛ, ni amɛnaanyobɔɔ lɛ mli waa yɛ be mli ni amɛjieɔ amɛhenumɔi akpo lɛ.

Hɛɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ eha wɔná hegbɛ yɛ sɔlemɔ mli bɔni afee ni wɔtsi wɔbɛŋkɛ lɛ. Enɛ baanyɛ aba mli kɛji wɔjaje wɔ diɛŋtsɛ wɔhenumɔi wɔtsɔɔ Nyɔŋmɔ moŋ fe ní wɔkɛɛ sɔlemɔi ni wɔkase wɔwo wɔyitsoŋ kɛkɛ.

“[Yesu kaselɔi] lɛ ateŋ mɔ kome kɛɛ lɛ akɛ: Nuntsɔ, tsɔɔmɔ wɔ sɔlemɔ.” Yesu here nɔ ekɛɛ: “Kɛ́ nyɛmiisɔle lɛ, nyɛkɛɛa akɛ: Wɔtsɛ ni yɔɔ ŋwɛi, ogbɛi lɛ afee krɔŋkrɔŋ; omaŋtsɛyeli lɛ aba.” (Luka 11:1, 2) Ani wɔbaanyɛ wɔsɔle ni shishinumɔ ahi mli yɛ nɛkɛ gbɛ nɔ ni klɛŋklɛŋ lɛ wɔleee Nyɔŋmɔ gbɛi lɛ kɛ bɔ ni esa akɛ atse he lɛ? Ni ani wɔbaanyɛ wɔsɔle ni ekɛ Yesu wiemɔi nɛɛ akpã gbee kɛji wɔnuuu nɔ ni Nyɔŋmɔ Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ ji lɛ shishi? Kɛji wɔpɛi Biblia lɛ mli jogbaŋŋ lɛ, wɔnuɔ saji nɛɛ shishi.
