Benɛ Matsɛ Ashurbanipal ngɛ nɔ yee ɔ, e ngɛ kaa nɔ́ nɛ nɔ ko be nyɛe maa ye Asiria kɛ Nineveh a nɔ kunimi.
Benɛ Asiria wo e he nɔ hluu ɔ, Yehowa gbalɔ Zefania gba ke: ‘Yehowa ma kpata Asiria hɛ mi, nɛ Asiria ma nguaa a nɛ a tsɛɛ Nineve ɔ maa pee ma doku kaa nga kplanaa nɔ.’ Yehowa gbalɔ Nahum hu gba ke: “Nyɛɛ ha sika hiɔ!
