9 Mo mpae mu nka yei wɔ aman so: Monsiesie mo ho mma ɔko! Monkanyane akodɔm! Momma mo mmarima akofoɔ no ntwe mpini, na wɔn mmɛko.
Crye ye this thing among hethene men, halewe ye batel, reise ye stronge men; alle men werriours, neiy, and stie.
10 Momfa mo mfuntumdadeɛ no mmɔ akofena, na momfa mo nsɔsɔwa mmɔ mpea. Ma deɛ wɔayɛ mmerɛ nka sɛ, “mewɔ ahoɔden!”

Folkis rise togidere, and stie in to the valei of Josofat; for Y schal sitte there, to deme alle folkis in cumpas.

Sende ye sikelis, `ether sithis, for ripe corn wexide; come ye, and go ye doun, for the pressour is ful; pressouris ben plenteuouse, for the malice of hem is multiplied.
14 Nipadɔm, nipadɔm wɔ gyinasie subɔnhwa no mu! Awurade ɛda no abɛn wɔ gyinasie subɔnhwa no mu.
