2 Ekɛ jalɛ atsu omaŋbii lɛ asaji ahe nii ahã amɛ,
Ni eye jalɛ sane ehã omaŋbii ni bɛ yelikɛbualɔ lɛ.+
3 Toiŋjɔlɛ ajɛ gɔji lɛ anɔ aba omaŋbii lɛ anɔ,
Ni jalɛ ajɛ gɔŋkpɔi lɛ anɔ aba amɛnɔ.
4 Efã* mɛi ni bɛ yelikɛbualɔ yɛ omaŋbii lɛ ateŋ lɛ ahe,
Ni ehere ohiafoi lɛ abii* lɛ,
Ni ejwara shishiulɔ lɛ.+
5 Amɛbaashe bo gbeyei gbii abɔ ni hulu yɔɔ nɛɛ
Kɛ gbii abɔ ni nyɔɔŋtsere yɔɔ nɛɛ,
Kɛjɛ yinɔ kome nɔ kɛmiiya yinɔ kroko nɔ.+
6 Ebaatsɔ tamɔ nugbɔ ni nɛɔ eshwieɔ jwɛi fɔ ni ahu nɔ lɛ nɔ,
Tamɔ nugbɔ ni nɛɔ eshwieɔ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ lɛ.+
10 Tarshish kɛ ŋshɔkpɔi lɛ anɔ maŋtsɛmɛi lɛ kɛ nikeenii* baaba.+
Sheba kɛ Seba maŋtsɛmɛi lɛ baabake lɛ nii.+
11 Maŋtsɛmɛi lɛ fɛɛ baakoto lɛ,
Ni jeŋmaji lɛ fɛɛ baasɔmɔ lɛ.
12 Ejaakɛ ebaajie ohiafo ni bolɔɔ kɛhã yelikɛbuamɔ lɛ,
Kɛ mɔ ni nii yɔɔ mɔbɔ lɛ, kɛ mɔ fɛɛ mɔ ni bɛ yelikɛbualɔ lɛ.
14 Ebaajie amɛ* kɛje nɔnyɛɛ kɛ yiwalɛ mli,
Ni amɛlá jara baawa yɛ ehiɛ.
15 Eyi aná wala, ni akɛ Sheba shika tsuru abahã lɛ.+
Asɔle ahã lɛ be fɛɛ be,
Ni ajɔɔ lɛ gbi muu fɛɛ.
Mɛi atsɔ enɔ aná jɔɔmɔ;+
Jeŋmaji lɛ fɛɛ ajie eyi.
Amen, Amen.
