9 Na mmuaeɛ no bɛyɛ sɛ, ‘Ɛfiri sɛ, wɔagya Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn apam no akɔsɔre anyame foforɔ asom wɔn.’ ”
10 Monnsu ɔhene a wafiri mu, na monni ne ho awerɛhoɔ;

11 Na yei ne deɛ Awurade ka faa Yosia babarima Salum a ɔdii nʼagya adeɛ sɛ Yudahene na wafiri ha no ho: “Ɔrensane mma bio.
12 Ɔbɛwu wɔ baabi a wɔafa no nnommum akɔ hɔ; na ɔrenhunu saa asase yi bio.”
13 “Nnome nka deɛ ɔmfa ɛkwan tenenee so nsi nʼahemfie,

18 Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Awurade ka fa Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim ho:
“Wɔrensu no sɛ:
‘Aa, me nuabarima! Aa me nuabaa!’
Wɔrensu no sɛ:
‘Aa, me wura! Aa nʼahoɔfɛ!’
19 Wɔbɛsie no sɛ afunumu.
Wɔbɛtwe nʼase na wɔato no atwene

20 “Monkɔ Lebanon nkɔ su,

24 “Nokorɛm, sɛ mete ase yi,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “Mpo sɛ wo Yehoiakin, Yudahene Yehoiakim babarima yɛɛ me nsa nifa so nsɔano kaa a, anka mɛworɔ wo.
25 Mede wo bɛma wɔn a wɔrehwehwɛ wo kra, wɔn a wosuro wɔn no; Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar ne Babiloniafoɔ.

30 Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ:
“Montwerɛ ɔbarima yi ho asɛm nto hɔ te sɛ obi a ɔnni ba,
