“Mose dii mfe aduanan no, ɔyɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔrekɔsra ne nuanom Israelfo. Oduu hɔ no ohuu sɛ Misraimni bi resisi ne nuanom mu baako bi. Mose kɔboaa ne nua no ma Mose kum Misraimni no.

“Saa Mose yi ne obi a Israelfo poo no bere a wobisaa no se, ‘Hena na ɔyɛɛ wo yɛn so panyin ne otemmufo no?’ Ɔno na Onyankopɔn nam ɔbɔfo a oyii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ no wɔ nwura a ɛrehyew no gyaframa mu no, yɛɛ no ɔpanyin ne ogyefo.

“Mose yi ara na ɔka kyerɛɛ Israelfo se, sɛnea Onyankopɔn somaa me no, saa ara na obeyi odiyifo a ɔte sɛ me afi mo mu aba mo nkyɛn.
