Emonyuŋ efre item, emi enemede ye mbufo nte nditɔ-ete,
Eyen mi, kubat ntunɔ Jehovah ke ekpri ŋkpɔ,
Kunyuŋ uyemere ke ini
Enye asuade ɔnɔ fi.
And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children,
My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord,
Nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
