9 Sane ni ajaje atsɔɔ nɛ:
“Yehowa ewie eshi Hadrak shikpɔŋ lɛ,
—Ejaakɛ Yehowa hiŋmɛi yɛ adesai+
Kɛ Israel wekui lɛ fɛɛ anɔ—
2 Ni ewie eshi Hamat+ ní kɛ lɛ je husu lɛ,
3 Tiro tswa kpoku* ehã ehe.
Ebua jwiɛtɛi naa tamɔ mulu
Kɛ shika tsuru hu naa tamɔ gbɛjegbɛi anɔ shia.+
4 Naa! Yehowa baashɔ̃ enibii lɛ yɛ edɛŋ,
Ni ebaatswia esraafoi lɛ nii ewo ŋshɔ lɛ mli;*+
Ni akɛ la baashã lɛ.+
5 Ashkelon baana ni ebaashe gbeyei;
Gaza baana nɔ waa,
Kɛ Ekron hu, ejaakɛ ashwie mɔ ni ehiɛ kã enɔ lɛ hiɛ shi.
Maŋtsɛ hiɛ baakpãtã yɛ Gaza,
Ni mɔ ko ehiŋ Ashkelon.+
7 Majie nibii ni lá yɔɔ he lɛ kɛje edaaŋ,
Kɛ nyaŋemɔ nibii lɛ kɛje enyanyɔji ateŋ,
Ni abaashi lɛ ahã wɔ-Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ;
Ni ebaatsɔ tamɔ sheik* yɛ Yuda,+
Ni Ekron hu baatsɔ tamɔ Yebusnyo.+
8 Mabɔ nsara tamɔ bulɔ* kɛbu mishĩa lɛ he,+
Koni mɔ ko akatsɔ mli kɛho, ní mɔ ko hu akaku esɛɛ;
Ni mɔ ni nyɛɔ mɛi anɔ ni amɛtsu nii* hu tsɔŋ mli dɔŋŋ,+
Ejaakɛ agbɛnɛ mina kɛ mihiŋmɛii.*
9 Zion biyoo, nya waa.
Yerusalem biyoo, bɔɔ kunimyeli oshe.
Naa! Omaŋtsɛ lɛ miiba oŋɔɔ.+
10 Mashɔ̃ ta shwiili yɛ Efraim dɛŋ,
Kɛ okpɔŋɔ hu yɛ Yerusalem dɛŋ.
Abaashɔ̃ ta gãi lɛ kɛya.
Ni ebaashiɛ toiŋjɔlɛ ehã jeŋmaji lɛ;+
Enɔyeli lɛ baajɛ ŋshɔnaa kɛyagbee ŋshɔnaa
11 Ni bo yoo hu, matsɔ okpaŋmɔ lɛ nɔ lá lɛ nɔ
Majie ogboklɛfoi lɛ kɛaaje bu ni nu bɛ mli lɛ mli.+
12 Nyɛ gboklɛfoi ni yɔɔ hiɛnɔkamɔ, nyɛkua nyɛsɛɛ kɛbaa teemɔhe lɛ.+
Ŋmɛnɛ gbi nɛɛ, miikɛɛ bo akɛ,
‘Bo yoo, mato bo najiaŋ toi enyɔ.+
13 Ejaakɛ madɔ Yuda mli* tamɔ migãi.
Mikɛ Efraim baawo gãi lɛ mli,*
Ni matee bo, Zion, obihii lɛ ashi
Mawo bo, Grees, obihii lɛ,
Ni mahã otsɔ tamɔ tawulɔ klante.’
14 Abaana Yehowa yɛ amɛnɔ,
Ni egãimlibi lɛ baafã kpo tamɔ sarawa.
15 Yehowa, taiatsɛ lɛ, baafã amɛhe,
Ni amɛbaakpãtã akromia tɛi lɛ ahiɛ, ni amɛbaaye amɛnɔ.+
Amɛbaanu nii, ni amɛbaafee hoo, tamɔ nɔ ni amɛnu wain;
Ni amɛbaayimɔ obɔbɔ tamɔ tsɛnsi,
Tamɔ afɔleshaa latɛ lɛ koji lɛ.+
16 Yehowa, amɛ-Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ, baahere amɛyiwala yɛ nakai gbi lɛ nɔ
Akɛ emaŋ lɛ tooku;+
Ejaakɛ amɛbaatamɔ akekere* he ojarawatɛi ni kpɛlɛɔ yɛ eshikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ.+
17 Kwɛ bɔ ni ekpakpa ni efeɔ lɛ fa waa hã,+
Ni kwɛ bɔ ni ehe yɔɔ fɛo waa hã!
