2 Afei emi, Nephi, mammfa ndua no annyɛ edwuma no dɛ mbrɛ nyimpa dasanyi a oesua edwuma no yɛ no, nna mammfa kwan so a ɔdasanyi fa do pam no; na mbom mefaa kwan a Ewuradze kyerɛɛ me no do pamee; dɛm ntsi nnyɛ ɔdasanyi kwan do a.
3 Na emi, Nephi, mokɔr bepɔw no do mpɛn pii, kɔbɔɔ ampaa mpɛn pii maa Ewuradze; dɛm ntsi Ewuradze bdaa ndzɛmba akɛse edzi kyerɛɛ me.
4 Na ɔbaa dɛ muwiee hɛn no pam ekyir, dɛ mbrɛ Ewuradze n’asɛm kyerɛ no, mo nuanom no hwɛe na wohun dɛ oye, na wohun dɛ no ho edwindzi no yɛ ahomka dodow; dɛm ntsi awɔbrɛɛ hɔnho adze wɔ Ewuradze enyim.
5 Na ɔbaa dɛ Ewuradze ne ndze baa m’egya hɔ dɛ yɛnsoɛr na yɛnkɔ hɛn no mu.
6 Na ɔbaa dɛ adze kyee no aber a yesiesiee hɛn ndzɛmba wiei, nduaba ahorow na sar no do abɔnam, na ewo pii, na edziban ahorow a Ewuradze ahyɛ hɛn dɛ yɛmfa nyina no, yɛkɔr hɛn no mu, yɛdze hɛn adzesoadze na aba, na biribiara a yɛdze bae, obiara n’adzesoadze dɛ mbrɛ ne mfe a oedzi tse; na yɛnye hɛn yernom na hɛn mba nyina kɔr hɛn no mu.
7 Nna afei m’egya awo mbanyimba beenu wɔ sar no do; panyin no wɔfrɛ no aJacob na kakraba no so dze bJoseph.
8 Na ɔbaa dɛ hɛn nyina yɛdze hɛn edziban na ndzɛmba a wɔahyɛ hɛn dɛ yɛmfa no koguu hɛn no mu ekyir no, hɛn nyinara kɔr mu na yepiaa too apo enyi na mframa bɔɔ hɛn kɔr banohoba asaase no do.
9 Na mframa no bɔɔ hɛn kɔr kan bɛyɛ nda pii ekyir no, hwɛ, mo nuanom na Ishmael ne mbabanyin nye hɔn yernom so enyi gyee araa ma wɔhyɛɛ ase dɛ wɔrotow ndwom na wɔresaw, na wɔkasaa ahantan mu, nyew, na hɔn werɛ fiir tum no a ɔdze hɔn aba dɛm bea no do no; nyew, ahantanyɛ maa wɔmemaa hɔnho do mbordo.
10 Na emi, Nephi, mehyɛɛ ase suroo kɛsenara osiandɛ bɛyɛ na Ewuradze enya ebufuw wɔ hɛnho na oetwa hɛn akyen osian hɛn emumuyɛ ntsi, ma po no bun amen hɛn; dɛm ntsi, emi, Nephi, mekasaa kyerɛɛ hɔn ahobrɛase mu; mbom hwɛ hɔn abo fuuw me, na wɔsee dɛ: Yɛremma kwan mma hɛn nuakuma ayɛ hɛn bhwɛdofo.
11 Na ɔbaa dɛ Laman na Lemuel faa me na wɔdze ntampehoma kyekyeer me, na wɔyɛɛ me ayakayakadze kɛse; na Ewuradze amaa kwan ma iyinom nyinara kɔr do ama ɔaakyerɛ no tum, ama dza ɔakã a ɔfa emumuyɛfo ho no aahyɛ mã.

16 Iyi nyinara ekyir no, memaa m’enyi do hwɛɛ me Nyankopɔn, na amiyii no ayɛw mber nyina; na mennhwinhwin Ewuradze wɔ m’amandzehu no ntsi.
17 Afei, m’egya, Lehi akasa pii akyerɛ hɔn nye aIshmael ne mbabanyin no so; mbom hwɛ, wohunahuna obiara a ɔbɛkasa akyerɛ hɔn wɔ emi ntsi no; na mfe pii etwa m’awofo hɔn tsir do na osian hɔn mba hɔn ho ayawdzi kɛse ntsi yarba kãa hɔn, nyew, wɔkaa hɔn yar mpa do.

19 Na Jacob na Joseph so a wɔyɛ mbofraba na wohia edziban pa pii edzi no, hɔn werɛ howee osian hɔn nã n’amandzehu no ntsi; na ame yer so kyii nyinsuwa na ɔbɔɔ mpaa, nye me mba so, na woenntum annka biribi anndwedwe mo nuanom no hɔn akoma a ɔbɛma woesian me.
20 Na biribiara nnyi hɔ gyedɛ Nyankopɔn no tum nko a ɔdze ɔsɛɛ hunahunaa hɔn ma wonyaa akoma mu nsakyer no; ma dɛm ntsi wohun dɛ po no reyɛ amen hɔn akɔ bun mu no, wonuu hɔnho wɔ dza wɔayɛ no ho na wosiaan me.
21 Na ɔbaa dɛ wosiaan me no, hwɛ mefaa adze korkorba no a ɔkyerɛ kwan no na ɔhyɛɛ ase yɛɛ edwuma dɛ mbrɛ morohwehwɛ ara pɛr. Na ɔbaa dɛ mobɔɔ mpaa maa Ewuradze; na mobɔɔ mpaa wiei no, mframa no gyaa bɔ na ehum no so gyae ma po no taa dzinn.
22 Na ɔbaa dɛ emi, Nephi, medandaan hɛn no, ma yɛsɔɔw hɛn akwantu do bio dɛ yɛrokɔ asaase a wɔdze bɔɔ hɛn anohoba no do.
23 Na ɔbaa dɛ yedzii nda kakra ara yie ekyir no yedur aanohoba asaase no do; na yekyiin asaase no do na yesisii hɛn ntamadan; na yɛfrɛɛ bea no anohoba asaase.
