4 na wɔbɛka sɛ: “Ne mmae a wɔahyɛ ho bɔ no wɔ he?+ Hwɛ, efi da a yɛn agyanom wuwui* no, biribiara te sɛ nea ɛte fi bere a Onyankopɔn bɔɔ nnipa.”+
5 Na wɔboapa bu wɔn ani gu nokwasɛm yi so sɛ efi tete no, na ɔsoro wɔ hɔ, na Onyankopɔn asɛm nti, asaase fi nsu mu betim hɔ maa nsu twaa ho hyiae;+

8 Nanso, adɔfo, mommma mo ani mmpa nokwasɛm yi so sɛ Yehowa* ani so no, da koro yɛ mfe apem, na mfe apem nso yɛ da koro.+
9 Yehowa* nkyɛ ne bɔhyɛ ho+ sɛnea ebinom bu biribi sɛ ɛkyɛ no, na mmom ɔwɔ mo ho abotare efisɛ ɔmpɛ sɛ obiara bɛsɛe; nea ɔpɛ ne sɛ obiara bɛsakra n’adwene.+
10 Nanso Yehowa* da+ no bɛba sɛ ɔkorɔmfo,+ na emu na ɔsoro bɛbobom kurududu atwam,+ na nneɛma a adɔ ayɛ kɔɔ no bɛnan, na asaase ne emu nnwuma bɛda adi.+
11 Esiane sɛ eyinom nyinaa bɛnan saa nti, munhu nnipa ko a ɛsɛ sɛ moyɛ; momma mo abrabɔ ho ntew na momfa onyamesom pa ntena ase,

14 Enti adɔfo, esiane sɛ moretwɛn eyinom nti, monyɛ nea mubetumi biara mma ommehu mo sɛ nnipa a nkekae ne dɛm biara nni wɔn ho na wɔwɔ asomdwoe.+
15 Bio nso, mummu abotare a yɛn Awurade anya no sɛ nkwagye sɛnea yɛn nua ne yɛn dɔfo Paul de nyansa a wɔde ama no no kyerɛw mo no;+
16 ɔkaa eyinom ho asɛm sɛnea ɔtaa yɛ wɔ ne nkrataa nyinaa mu no. Nanso emu nsɛm bi asete yɛ den, na wɔn a wonni nimdeɛ* na wɔn ase ntimii no kyinkyim no sɛnea wokyinkyim Kyerɛwnsɛm a aka no, na ɛde wɔn bɛkɔ ɔsɛe mu.
17 Enti adɔfo, esiane sɛ munim eyi dedaw nti, monhwɛ mo ho yiye na mmaratofo amfa wɔn nnaadaa no antwe mo ankɔ, na bere a mo ase atim* yi, moanhwe ase.+
