10 sɛnea wɔakyerɛw sɛ: “Ɔtreneeni biara nni hɔ, ɔbaako mpo nni hɔ;+
11 obiara nni hɔ a ɔwɔ nhumu biara; obiara nni hɔ a ɔhwehwɛ Onyankopɔn.
12 Nnipa nyinaa afom kwan,* wɔn nyinaa adan ade a mfaso biara nni so; obiara nni hɔ a ɔda ayamye adi, ɔbaako pɛ mpo nni hɔ.”+
13 “Wɔn menewa yɛ ɔdamoa a ɛso abue; wɔde wɔn tɛkrɛma keka nnaadaasɛm.”+ “Awɔ* bɔre wɔ wɔn anom.”+
14 “Nnome ne nsɛm a ɛyɛ yaw* ayɛ wɔn anom ma.”+
15 “Wɔn nan tu mmirika kohwie mogya gu.”+
16 “Ɔsɛe ne ahoyeraw wɔ wɔn akwan so,
17 na wonnim asomdwoe kwan.”+
18 “Onyankopɔn ho suro nni wɔn ani so.”+
19 Yenim sɛ biribiara a Mmara no ka no, ɛka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔhyɛ Mmara no ase, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔbɛma obiara aka n’ano atom, na wiase nyinaa abɛyɛ wɔn a wɔfata Onyankopɔn asotwe.+
20 Enti ɔremfa mmara nnwuma so mmu obiara* bem wɔ n’anim,+ efisɛ mmara na ɛma yehu bɔne yiye.+
21 Nanso seesei sɛ obi anni Mmara no so mpo a, Onyankopɔn betumi abu no ɔtreneeni,+ sɛnea Mmara no ne Adiyifo no di ho adanse no.+
22 Yiw, wɔn a wɔwɔ gyidi nyinaa, esiane sɛ wɔwɔ Yesu Kristo mu gyidi nti, wobetumi abɛyɛ atreneefo wɔ Onyankopɔn anim. Efisɛ nsonsonoe biara nna wɔn ntam.+
23 Wɔn nyinaa ayɛ bɔne, na wontumi nna Onyankopɔn anuonyam adi,+
24 na ɛyɛ akyɛde ara kwa+ sɛ Onyankopɔn adom nti,+ ɔnam agyede a Kristo Yesu tuae no so abu wɔn bem.+
25 Onyankopɔn de no mae sɛ afɔre, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a yebenya ne mogya mu gyidi+ na ama asomdwoe aba* yɛne Onyankopɔn ntam.+ Onyankopɔn yɛɛ saa sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛda ɔno ara ne trenee adi, efisɛ n’abotare nti, ɔde bɔne a wɔyɛe tete no kyɛe.
26 Ɔyɛɛ saa sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛda ɔno ara ne trenee adi+ wɔ saa bere yi mu, na ama wayɛ ɔtreneeni bere a obu onipa a ɔwɔ Yesu mu gyidi bem no.+
27 Ɛnde ahohoahoa no wɔ he? Wɔayi afi hɔ. Mmara bɛn na wɔnam so yi fii hɔ? Nnwuma mmara+ anaa? Daabida, na mmom ɛnam gyidi mmara so.
28 Yehu sɛ wɔnam gyidi so na ebu onipa bem, na ɛnyɛ nnwuma a mmara no hwehwɛ sɛ wɔyɛ so.+
29 Adɛn, ɔyɛ Yudafo nko ara Nyankopɔn?+ Ɔnyɛ amanaman mufo nso Nyankopɔn anaa?+ Yiw, ɔyɛ amanaman mufo nso Nyankopɔn.+
