Bo nɔ ni Yehowa kɛɛ Yoshua lɛ toi: ‘Bo kɛ otabilɔi lɛ fɛɛ, nyɛbɔlea maŋ lɛ he kɛkpea. Nyɛbɔlea he gbii ekpaa, shikome daa gbi. Nyɛwoa kpaŋmɔ adeka lɛ ni nyɛhiɛa. Osɔfoi kpawo anyiɛ kpaŋmɔ adeka lɛ hiɛ ni amɛkpã amɛ tɛtɛrɛmaŋtɛrɛi lɛ.
‘Yɛ gbi ni ji kpawo lɛ nɔ lɛ, nyɛnyiɛa kɛbɔlea maŋ lɛ he shii kpawo. No sɛɛ lɛ, nyɛkpãa tɛtɛrɛmaŋtɛrɛi lɛ waa, ni maŋ muu lɛ fɛɛ abɔ oshe wulu. Ni maŋ lɛ gbogboi lɛ aaagbee shi shwɛtɛɛ!’

Nyɔŋmɔ webii lɛ ahenyɛlɔi ni yɔɔ Yeriko lɛ atsui baafã. Ani oona taŋkpee tsuru lɛ ni tsotsoro samfɛlɛ lɛ naa lɛ? Namɔ samfɛlɛ ni? Hɛɛ, Rahab efee nɔ ni maŋ shikpálɔi enyɔ lɛ kɛɛ efee lɛ pɛpɛɛpɛ. Ewekumɛi fɛɛ fata ehe yɛ jɛmɛ amɛmiikwɛ nɔ ni yaa nɔ lɛ.
Yɛ naagbee, yɛ gbi ni ji kpawo lɛ nɔ, beni amɛnyiɛ kɛbɔle maŋ lɛ shii kpawo sɛɛ lɛ, tɛtɛrɛmaŋtɛrɛi lɛ gbɛɛ, tabilɔi lɛ bɔ oshe, ni gbogboi lɛ kumɔ shwie shi. Ni Yoshua kɛɛ: ‘Nyɛgbea maŋ lɛ mli mɔ fɛɛ mɔ, ni nyɛshãa maŋ lɛ. Nyɛshãa nɔ fɛɛ nɔ. Nyɛbaa jwiɛtɛi, shika, akɔɔble kɛ dade lɛ pɛ ayi, ni nyɛkɛbaa Yehowa buu lɛ mli nitoohe lɛ.’
Yoshua kɛɛ maŋ shikpálɔi enyɔ lɛ akɛ: ‘Nyɛyaa Rahab shia lɛ, ni nyɛyaŋɔa lɛ kɛ ewekumɛi fɛɛ kɛjea kpo kɛbaa.’ Abaa Rahab kɛ ewekumɛi lɛ fɛɛ yi, tamɔ bɔ ni maŋ shikpálɔi lɛ wo lɛ shi lɛ pɛpɛɛpɛ.
