Ɛwom sɛ wonnyee me ntoo mu deɛ,

9 “Nnome nka deɛ ɔne ne Yɛfoɔ ham
Ɛnka deɛ ɔmfra te sɛ kyɛmferɛ a ɛfra deɛ ɛgugu fam mu.
Dɔteɛ bɛtumi abisa ɔnwomfoɔ sɛ,

14 Sei na Awurade seɛ:
“Nneɛma a ɛfiri Misraim ne adwadeɛ a ɛfiri Kus,

15 Ampa ara, woyɛ Onyankopɔn a ɔde ne ho sie,
Ao Onyankopɔn ne Israel Agyenkwa.
16 Wɔn a wɔyɛ ahoni nyinaa bɛfɛre na wɔn anim agu ase;

17 Nanso, Awurade bɛgye Israel nkwa,

Wɔremma wʼani nwu na wʼanim renguase bio

18 Na sei na Awurade seɛ,

19 Menkasaa wɔ kɔkoam,

Ɛnyɛ me Awurade anaa?
Onyankopɔn bi nni hɔ ka me ho,

22 “Monnane mmra me nkyɛn na monnya nkwa,

Wɔn a wɔn bo huru tia no nyinaa

25 Nanso Awurade mu,
wɔbɛbu Israel asefoɔ nyinaa bem,
