Koro edieke ɔkpɔdɔŋde mi ndinam mbure, ndidige ndisime, koro se ntiŋde edi akpanikɔ; edi nnamke, mbak owo edibat ete mmokpon ŋkan nte imɔ isede mi inyuŋ ikopde ke inua mi;
For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.
