Does it make you a king to excel * in cedar? Did not your father have food and drink? He administered justice and righteousness, and so it went well with him.
Context
13“Nnome nka deɛ ɔmfa ɛkwan tenenee so nsi nʼahemfie,
na ɔde nsisie si nʼabansoro.
Nnome nka deɛ ɔma ne ɔmanfoɔ yɛ adwuma kwa,
na ɔntua wɔn apaadie so ka. 14Ɔka sɛ, ‘Mɛsi ahemfie kɛseɛ ama me ho
deɛ ɛwɔ abansoro adan a emu soso.’
Enti ɔyɛ mpomma akɛseɛ wɔ mu;
ɔde ntweneduro dura mu
na ɔde ahosu kɔkɔɔ hyehyɛ mu. 15“Wowɔ ntweneduro bebree a
na ɛma woyɛ ɔhene anaa?
Na wʼagya nni aduane ne nsã anaa?
Ɔyɛɛ deɛ ɛfa ne ɛkwan mu na ɛtene,
enti ɛsii no yie. 16Ɔdii mmɔborɔni ne ohiani asɛm maa wɔn,
enti biribiara yɛɛ yie maa no.
Na ɛnyɛ yei na ɛkyerɛ sɛ obi nim me anaa?”
Awurade na ɔseɛ. 17“Mo ani ne mo akoma
wɔ mfasoɔ bɔne nko ara so,
sɛ mohwie mogya a ɛdi bem guo
na moyɛ nhyɛsoɔ ne nsisie nso.”
