16 Ye nuhua a sonlabaka ne amuala toɔdoa nu pɛpɛɛpɛ na bɛbɔ nu bɛyɛ gyima na nvɛyeba biala fa mɔɔ hyia la maa a. Saa nvɛyeba biala yɛ ye gyima kpalɛ a, ɔboa ɔmaa sonlabaka ne nyi na ɔyɛ se wɔ ɛlɔlɛ nu.
17 Yemɔti meka ɛhye meadu bɛ folɛ wɔ Awulae anyunlu kɛ, bɛmmabɔ bɛ ɛbɛla kɛ maanle maanle ne anu amra mɔɔ bɛndwenle adwenle kpalɛ* la bieko.

23 Na ɔwɔ kɛ bɛmaa bɛkɔ zo bɛyɛ bɛ fofolɛ wɔ tumi ne mɔɔ kile bɛ adwenle ne adenle la* anu,
24 na bɛva subane fofolɛ ne mɔɔ bɛbɔle ye wɔ Nyamenle ɛhulolɛ zo wɔ nɔhalɛ tenleneyɛlɛ nee nɔhalɛlilɛ nu la bɛwula.
25 Yemɔti, kɛkala mɔɔ bɛye adalɛ bɛgua la, bɛ nuhua ko biala ɛha nɔhalɛ ɛhile ɔ gɔnwo, ɔluakɛ yɛle sonlabaka ko anwo nvɛyeba.
26 Bɛva ɛya, noko bɛmmayɛ ɛtane; bɛmmamaa sɛnzɛne ne tɔ bɛ ɛyavalɛ zo;

28 Mɔɔ le awule la mmawua bieko; emomu ɔyɛ gyima ɛsesebɛ, ɔva ɔ sa ɔyɛ gyima kpalɛ, amaa yeanyia debie mɔɔ ɔbava bie yeamaa awie mɔɔ kɛhyia la.

30 Eza bɛmmabɔ Nyamenle sunsum nwuanzanwuanza ne mɔɔ yeva yezɔ bɛ nloa yemaa kenle ne mɔɔ ɔbalua ɛkpɔnedeɛ ne azo yealie bɛ la arɛle.*
31 Bɛye ɛkpɔlɛ biala, ɛya, ahonle kpole, ɛdeɛdeanlɛ, nee aholoba, nee debie ɛtane biala bɛgua.
