“Na afei, onipa ba, fa ntayaa bi to wʼanim na kurukyire Yerusalem kuropɔn mfoni wɔ so.

Si otua ho nnwuma ma no: yɛ apie tia no, yɛ mpampim ne nsraban wɔ ho, na fa obubuadaban nnua twa ho hyia.

Afei, fa dadeɛ kyɛmferɛ to ɔfasuo wɔ wo ne kuropɔn no ntam na dane wʼani kyerɛ no. Wɔbɛtua kuropɔn no, na wo na wobɛtua no. Yei bɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ama Israel efie.
