Na Israel Nyankopɔn, Asafo Awurade no,nnyaw Israel ne Yuda hɔ ɛ,ɛwɔ mu, afɔdi ahyɛ wɔn asase no so mawɔ Israel Ɔkronkronni no anim.

“Munguan mfi Babilonia!Muntu mmirika mpere mo nkwa!Mommma wɔnnsɛe mo esiane ne bɔne nti. Awurade aweretɔbere aso;ɔde nea ɛfata no betua no ka.

Na Babilonia yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ kuruwa wɔ Awurade nsam;ɔmaa asase nyinaa bow nsa.Aman no nom ne nsa;ɛno nti, afei wɔabobɔ adam.
