Ekem ŋkop uyo emi otode ke heaven ɔdɔhɔ ete, Wet ete, Ɔfɔfɔn ɔnɔ mme akpa-mkpa emi ekpade ke Ɔbɔŋ, ɔtɔŋɔde ke ini emi: Spirit ete, Edi ntre; man mmɔ eduɔk odudu ke ɔkpɔsɔŋ utom mmɔ; koro se mmɔ ekenamde etiene mmɔ ke edem.
And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
