Egba nɔkwɛmɔnɔ ko ni taa mɔ tsuiŋ, ní tamɔ nɔ ni etsɔ hiɛ egba be ni eyɔɔ Kapernaum lɛ, ni no hãa anaa hetoo lɛ faŋŋ. (Mateo 18:12-14) Yesu wie sane lɛ oookɛɛ Farisifoi lɛ ji jalɔi, ni amɛyɛ shweshweeshwe yɛ Nyɔŋmɔ we lɛ. Ni ewie mɛi ni baa shi lɛ hu ahe oookɛɛ amɛji mɛi ni edu gbɛ kɛ mɛi ni elaaje. Yesu wie akɛ:

“Nyɛteŋ namɔ ni kɛji eyɛ gwantɛŋi oha, ni amɛteŋ ekome laaje lɛ, eshiŋ nyɔŋmai nɛɛhu kɛ nɛɛhu lɛ yɛ sɛɛ yɛ ŋa lɛ nɔ ni eyatao nɔ ni elaaje lɛ kɛyashi ebaana lɛ?

Ekolɛ tsuitsakemɔ tã ni Yesu tsĩ lɛ hã Farisifoi lɛ ahiɛ fee amɛ yaa. Amɛnaa amɛhe jalɔi, ni no hewɔ lɛ amɛnuɔ he akɛ tsuitsakemɔ ehiaaa amɛ.

Shi kɛ́ eshafeelɔi tsake amɛtsui lɛɛlɛŋ lɛ, ekɛ miishɛɛ babaoo baa ŋwɛi.

Ni kɛ́ ena lɛ, etsɛɔ enanemɛi kɛ ekutsoŋbii lɛ kɛkpeɔ ni ekɛɔ akɛ, ‘Nyɛkɛ mi anáa miishɛɛ, ejaakɛ mina drakma kapɛlɛ ni laaje lɛ.’”​—Luka 15:8, 9.
