44 Nzinlii, ɔhanle ɔhilele nrenyia ne mɔɔ nea ye sua nu ɛkɛ ne la kɛ: “Fa aleɛ dodo biala mɔɔ menli ne mɔ bahola ye soa la gua bɛ ahodoku ne mɔ anu, na fa bɛ nuhua ko biala ezukoa ne wula ye kodoku ne anu.*+
2 Noko anrɛɛ fa me kanrɛlɛ ne, dwɛtɛ fufule kanrɛlɛ ne, wula ekyi ne kodoku ne anu, na fa ye ezukoa ne mɔɔ ɔfa yeadɔ aleɛ ne la boka nwo.” Ɔti ɔyɛle ye kɛ mɔɔ Dwosefi hanle la.
3 Mɔɔ aleɛ hyenle na maanle nu tetele la, bɛgyakyile bɛ adenle na bɛvale bɛ asoaso ne mɔ bɛhɔle.
4 Bɛvile sua ne azo la, bɛandwu moa biala yɛɛ Dwosefi zoanle nrenyia ne mɔɔ nea ye sua nu ɛkɛ ne la kɛ: “Dwazo! Ka ɛ nwo toa menli ne mɔ! Saa ɛkɔto bɛ a, biza bɛ kɛ, ‘Duzu ati a bɛva ɛtane bɛdua kpalɛ kakɛ ɛ?
5 Asoo tɛ kanrɛlɛ ɛhye a me menle no nuhua na ɔmaa ɔka mɔɔ bazi la pɛpɛɛpɛ ɔ? Bɛyɛ ɛtane kpole.’”
6 Ɔti ɔhɔdole bɛ na ɔhanle edwɛkɛ ɛhye mɔ ɔhilele bɛ.
7 Na bɛzele ye kɛ: “Duzu ati a yɛ menle ɛha edwɛkɛ ɛhye a? Wɔ sonvolɛma ɛnrɛyɛ debie zɛhae ɛlɛ.
8 Nea, ezukoa ne mɔɔ yɛnwunle ye wɔ yɛ ahodoku ne mɔ anu la, yɛvale yɛvile Keena azɛlɛ zo yɛrɛlɛle wɔ.+ Ɛnee akee kɛ ɔkɛyɛ na yɛawua dwɛtɛ fufule anzɛɛ nvutuke wɔ ɛ menle sua nu ɛ?
9 Saa ɛnwu ye wɔ wɔ ngɛkɛlɛ ne mɔ ko ɛkɛ a, maa ɔwu, na yɛdayɛ mɔɔ yɛha la noko bayɛ me menle ngɛkɛlɛ.”
10 Ɔti nrenyia ne hanle kɛ: “Bɛmaa ɔyɛ kɛ mɔɔ bɛha la: Ahenle mɔɔ mebanwu ye wɔ ye ɛkɛ ne la bayɛ me akɛlɛ, noko bɛdabɛ mɔɔ bɛha la anwo kɔlɔɔnwo.”
11 Na bɛ nuhua ko biala zokoɛle ye kodoku ne ziele ye aze ndɛndɛ na ɔtulule ɔ nloa.
12 Nrenyia ne nleɛnleanle nuhua kpalɛ, ɔbɔle ɔ bo wɔ kpanyinli ne anwo zo ɔhɔwiele ekyi ne anwo zo. Awieleɛ bɔkɔɔ ne, ɔnwunle kanrɛlɛ ne wɔ Bɛngyaman kodoku ne anu.+
13 Akee bɛsuosuanle bɛ adɛladeɛ ne mɔ anu, na bɛ nuhua ko biala vale ye bɔlɛ ne zoale ye asoaso ne na bɛziale bɛhɔle sua ne azo.
14 Mɔɔ Dwuda+ nee ɔ mediema ne mɔ hɔdwule Dwosefi sua nu ɛkɛ ne la, ɛnee ɔtɛbɔ ɛkɛ; na bɛbutubutule bɛ nyunlu aze wɔ ɔ nyunlu ɛkɛ.+
15 Dwosefi bizale bɛ kɛ: “Duzu ɛbɛla a bɛbɔ la? Bɛnze kɛ sonla mɔɔ le kɛ medame la kola ka mɔɔ bazi la pɛpɛɛpɛ ɔ?”+
16 Na Dwuda buale kɛ: “Duzu edwɛkɛ a yɛbahola yɛaha yɛahile me menle a? Duzu edwɛkɛ a yɛbahola yɛaha a? Na kɛ ɔkɛyɛ na yɛahile kɛ yɛdi benle* ɛ? Nɔhalɛ Nyamenle ne ɛnwu ɛtane mɔɔ wɔ ngɛkɛlɛ ɛyɛ la.+ Kɛkala yɛle me menle ngɛkɛlɛ, yɛdayɛ nee ahenle mɔɔ bɛnwunle kanrɛlɛ ne wɔ ye ɛkɛ la!”
17 Noko Dwosefi hanle kɛ: “Menrɛyɛ ɛhye ɛlɛ! Ahenle mɔɔ bɛnwunle kanrɛlɛ ne wɔ ye ɛkɛ la, yemɔ a bayɛ me akɛlɛ a.+ Bɛdabɛ mɔɔ bɛha la, bɛva anzodwolɛ bɛhɔ bɛ papa anwo lɔ.”
18 Akee Dwuda bikyele ye na ɔhanle kɛ: “Me menle mesɛlɛ wɔ, maa wɔ akɛlɛ ɛha edwɛkɛ bie ɛgua me menle anzo nu, na mmafa wɔ akɛlɛ anwo ɛya, ɔluakɛ ɛle kɛ Falo ala la.+
19 Me menle bizale ye ngɛkɛlɛ kɛ, ‘Bɛ papa wɔ ɛkɛ anzɛɛ bɛlɛ bɛ diema nrenyia bie ɔ?’
20 Yemɔti yɛhanle yɛhilele me menle kɛ, ‘Yɛ papa ɛrelera ne nee ɔ ra ekyi ne mɔɔ ɔwole ye wɔ ye mrelera nu la+ wɔ ɛkɛ. Noko ɔ diema nrenyia ne ɛwu,+ ɔti ɔ ngomekye a ɔle ye mame ara nrenyia mɔɔ yeha a,+ yɛɛ ye papa kulo ye edwɛkɛ kpalɛ.’
21 Ɛhye anzi, ɛzele wɔ ngɛkɛlɛ kɛ, ‘Bɛva ye bɛrɛla amaa meanwu ye.’+
22 Noko yɛhanle yɛhilele me menle kɛ, ‘Kakula nrenyia ne ɛnrɛhola ɛnrɛvi ye papa anwo ɛkɛ. Saa ɔfi ɔ nwo ɛkɛ a, ye papa bawu.’+
23 Akee ɛzele wɔ ngɛkɛlɛ kɛ, ‘Saa bɛ diema ekyi ne ɛmboka bɛ nwo a, bɛmmasia bɛba me nyunlu ɛke bieko.’+
24 “Yemɔti yɛhɔle wɔ sonvolɛ ne, mɔɔ le me papa la ɛkɛ na yɛhanle me menle edwɛkɛ ne yɛhilele ye.
25 Nzinlii, yɛ papa hanle kɛ, ‘Bɛzia bɛhɔdɔ aleɛ ekyi bɛrɛlɛ yɛ.’+
26 Noko yɛhanle kɛ, ‘Yɛnrɛhola yɛnrɛhɔ. Saa ɛbamaa yɛ nee yɛ diema ekyi ne ahɔ a, yemɔ yɛbahɔ, ɔluakɛ saa yɛ diema ekyi ne ɛmboka yɛ nwo a, yɛnrɛhola yɛnrɛzia yɛnrɛhɔ nrenyia ne anyunlu bieko.’+
27 Akee wɔ sonvolɛ ne, mɔɔ le me papa la zele yɛ kɛ, ‘Bɛdabɛ bɛze kɛ, mralɛ mrenyia nwiɔ a me ye wole bɛ maanle me a.+
