1 Nna a edi akyi no mu no,

2 Aman bebree bɛba abɛka se,
“Mommra mma yɛnkɔ Awurade bepɔw no so,
nkɔ Yakob Nyankopɔn fi.
Ɔbɛkyerɛkyerɛ yɛn nʼakwan

3 Obebu amanaman ntam atɛn

6 “Saa da no,” sɛnea Awurade se ni,

ɛne wɔn a mede awerɛhow aba wɔn so ano.
7 Mɛma mmubuafo ayɛ me nkurɔfo wɔ asase no so,

8 Na wo, nguankuw no abantenten,
Ɔbabea Sion, abandennen,
wɔde wo tete tumidi no bɛsan abrɛ wo;
Ɔbabea Yerusalem nsa bɛsan aka nʼahenni.”
9 Adɛn nti na afei woresu dennen,

10 Bukabukaw wo mu wɔ yawdi mu, Ɔbabea Sion,

Ɛhɔ na Awurade begye wo

11 Mprempren de, aman bebree aka abɔ mu atia wo.
Wɔka se, “Wongu Sion ho fi,

12 Nanso wonnim Awurade adwene.

13 “Sɔre, na porow, Ɔbabea Sion,
