(Lala 25:4, 5) Yehowa hu baabo wɔ toi, ni ebaahã wɔsɔlemɔi lɛ hetoo.

Shi Yehowa le he ni amɛyɔɔ, ni misɔlemɔ ji, ejɔɔ amɛ waa ehã mi.” Hɛɛ, Yehowa baajɔɔ amɛ, ejaakɛ enaa ejurɔ fɛɛ ni wɔfeɔ wɔnyɛmimɛi lɛ, kɛ́ wɔnaa lɛ akɛ nɔ ko bibioo po. Yɛ ehiɛ lɛ, eji afɔle ni jara wa kɛ nyɔmɔ ko ni ehiɛ wɔ ni bɔ fɛɛ bɔ ni fee lɛ, ebaawo.​—Kanemɔ Abɛi 19:17.
