19 Kɛkɛ nɛ Yoshua de Akan ke: “Ye binyumu, i kpa mo pɛɛ nɛ o wo Yehowa, Israel Mawu ɔ hɛ mi nyami, nɛ o jaje o yayami ɔ kɛ tsɔɔ lɛ. I kpa mo pɛɛ, mo de mi nɔ́ nɛ o pee. Koo ngɔ kɛ laa mi.”
20 Akan ha Yoshua heto ke: “Ngɛ anɔkuale mi ɔ, imi lɛ i pee yayami kɛ si Yehowa, Israel Mawu ɔ nɛ, nɛ nɔ́ nɛ i pee ji nɛ ɔ nɛ.
21 Benɛ i na Shinar odehehi a tade ko nɛ ngɛ fɛu, kɛ sika hiɔ shekel* 200, kɛ sika tsu kpɔ nɛ e jiɔmi ji shekel 50 ngɛ ta yibu ní ɔ mi ɔ, ye hɛ kɔ ní ɔmɛ a nɔ, lɔ ɔ he ɔ, i muɔɔ mɛ. Amlɔ nɛ ɔ, i kɛ laa ngɛ zu mi ngɛ ye bo tsu ɔ mi, nɛ sika a ngɛ sisi.”
