Mmebusɛm 16:1-33
16 Onipa hyehyɛ* ne komam nsusuwii,*Na mmuae a ɔma de,* efi Yehowa hɔ.+
2 Onipa akwan nyinaa yɛ papa* wɔ n’ani so,+Nanso Yehowa na ɔhwehwɛ adwene a onipa de yɛ biribi* mu.+
3 Fa nea woyɛ nyinaa hyɛ Yehowa nsa,*+Na wo nhyehyɛe bewie yiye.
4 Biribiara a Yehowa ayɛ no, wayɛ sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɛbɛma n’atirimpɔw abam,Ɔbɔnefo mpo, ɔwɔ hɔ ma da bɔne.+
5 Yehowa akyiwade ne obiara a ɔyɛ ahantan wɔ komam.+
Hu sɛ,* ɔremfa ne ho nni.
6 Wɔde ɔdɔ a enni huammɔ ne nokwaredi na ɛpata mfomso,+Na Yehowa suro na ɛma obi dan fi bɔne ho.+
7 Sɛ onipa akwan sɔ Yehowa ani a,Ɔma n’atamfo mpo ne no tena asomdwoe mu.+
8 Ade ketewa a trenee bata ho no,+Eye sen akatua kɛse a atɛntrenee nni mu.+
9 Onipa susuw n’akwan ho wɔ ne komam,Nanso Yehowa na ɔkyerɛ n’anammɔn kwan.+
10 Onyankopɔn atemmu na ɛsɛ sɛ ɛtena ɔhene anom,+Na ɛnsɛ sɛ obu atɛnkyea da.+
11 Ade a wɔde susuw nneɛma ne nsenia* a edi mu fi Yehowa hɔ;Nkaribo a ɛwɔ kotoku mu nyinaa yɛ ne nsa ano adwuma.+
12 Nneyɛe bɔne yɛ ahemfo akyiwade,+Efisɛ trenee na ɛma ahengua tim.+
13 Ahemfo ani sɔ kasa a ɛteɛ.
Wɔdɔ obiara a ɔka nokware.+
14 Ɔhene abufuw te sɛ obi a wɔasoma no a ɔde owu nam,+Nanso onyansafo pata no.*+
15 Ɔhene animtew mu na nkwa wɔ;N’adom te sɛ omununkum a ɛma osu tɔ wɔ fefɛw bere mu.+
16 Eye koraa sɛ wubenya nyansa sen sɛ wubenya sika kɔkɔɔ!+
Eye sɛ wobɛfa ntease sen sɛ wobɛfa dwetɛ.+
17 Atreneefo kwantempɔn man fi bɔne ho.
Obiara a ɔhwɛ ne kwan yiye no kora ne nkwa* so.+
18 Ahantan di ɔsɛe anim,Na ahomaso honhom di ahwease anim.+
19 Eye sɛ wobɛbrɛ wo ho ase* wɔ wɔn a wodwo mu+Sen sɛ wo ne ahantanfo bɛkyɛ nneɛma a wɔagye afi nkurɔfo nsam.
20 Nea ɔda nhumu adi wɔ asɛm mu no, ebesi no yiye;Anigye ne nea ɔde ne ho to Yehowa so.
21 Nea ɔyɛ onyansafo wɔ komam no, wɔbɛfrɛ no ntease,+Na nea n’anom kasa yɛ dɛ* no, nkurɔfo tie no.+
22 Nhumu yɛ nkwa asuti ma wɔn a wɔwɔ nhumu,Na nkwaseafo de, wɔn ankasa nkwaseasɛm na ɛteɛ wɔn so.
23 Onyansafo koma ma n’ano nya nhumu,+Na ɛma n’anom kasa yɛ dɛ.
24 Nsɛm a ɛyɛ dɛ yɛ ɛwokyɛm;Ɛyɛ ɔkra* dɛ, na ɛsa nnompe yare.+
25 Ɔkwan bi wɔ hɔ a, ɛteɛ wɔ onipa ani so,Nanso ekowie owu mu.+
26 Odwumayɛni kɔm* ma ɔyɛ adwumaden,Efisɛ ne yam kɔm* na epiapia no.+
27 Onipahunu tutu fam hwehwɛ bɔne,+Na n’anom kasa te sɛ ogya a ɛhyehye.+
28 Onipa gyigyefo* sɛe nnipa ntam,+Na nea ɔsɛe nkurɔfo din no, ɔtetew nnamfo a wɔbɔ kosua taforo ntam.+
29 Owudifo daadaa ne yɔnko,Na ɔde no fa ɔkwan a enye so.
30 Ɔrebɔ pɔw bɔne nyinaa, na ɔrebubu n’ani.
Ɔredi bɔne nyinaa, na ɔrewe n’ano.
31 Eti so dwen a wohu wɔ trenee kwan so no,+Ɛyɛ ahenkyɛw a ɛyɛ fɛ.*+
32 Nea ne bo mfuw ntɛm no,+ oye sen ɔkatakyi,Na nea ɔhyɛ n’abufuw so no,* oye sen nea ɔko fa kurow.+
33 Onipa srɛ so na wɔbɔ ntonto,+Nanso nea efi mu ba biara fi Yehowa.+
