‘Rekab ba Yehonadab hyɛɛ ne mmabarima sɛ wɔnnom nsa, na wɔadi saa ɔhyɛ yi so. De besi nnɛ wɔnnom nsa, efisɛ wodi wɔn agyanom ahyɛde so. Na makasa akyerɛ mo mpɛn bebree, nanso muntiee me.

Ɛno nti, nea Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn no se ni: ‘Rekab babarima Yehonadab benya ɔbarima a ɔbɛsom me bere biara.’ ”
