Ao Teman wʼakofoɔ bɛbɔ hu ne obiara a ɔwɔ Esau bepɔ so no, wɔbɛtwitwa mo atɔre mo ase. 
Esiane basabasayɛ a woyɛ tiaa wo nua Yakob no enti aniwuo bɛka wo, na wɔbɛsɛe wo koraa. 
Ɛda a wogyinaa ntentenso hwɛɛ no haa, na ananafoɔ faa nʼahonyadeɛ kɔeɛ na ahɔhoɔ hyɛnee ne kuro apono mu, na wɔbɔɔ Yerusalem so ntonto no, na wote sɛ wɔn mu baako.

Agyefoɔ bɛkɔ Sion bepɔ so, akɔdi Edom mmepɔ so. Na ahennie no bɛyɛ Awurade dea!
