36 Na ɔhene soma maa wɔkɔhyiaa Simei bae, na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ: Si dan wɔ Yerusalem fa, na tena hɔ, na mfiri hɔ nkɔ baabiara,
37 na da a wobɛfiri adie akɔtwa Kidron subonhwa no, hunu sɛ, wuo na wobɛwuo, na wo mogya bɛbua w’atifi.
38 Na Simei ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene sɛ: Ɛyɛ; sɛdeɛ me wura ɔhene aka no, saa ara na w’akoa bɛyɛ. Na Simei tenaa Yerusalem nna pii.
39 Na mfeɛ mmiɛnsa akyiri no, Simei nkoa baanu dwane kɔɔ Gathene Maaka ba Akis nkyɛn. Na wɔbɛka kyerɛɛ Simei sɛ: Hwɛ, wo nkoa no wɔ Gat.
40 Na Simei sɔre hyehyɛɛ n’afunumupɔnkɔ, na ɔsii mu kɔɔ Gat, Akis nkyɛn sɛ ɔrekɔhwehwɛ ne nkoa no; na Simei kɔ kɔfaa ne nkoa no firii Gat bae.
41 Na wɔbɛka kyerɛɛ Salomo sɛ: Simei afiri Yerusalem akɔ Gat, na wasane aba.
42 Na ɔhene soma maa wɔkɔfaa Simei bae sɛ: Manka wo AWURADE ntam manni wo adanseɛ sɛ da a wobɛfiri adi akɔ baabiara no, hunu sɛ wuo na wobɛwuo? Na woka kyerɛɛ me sɛ: Ɛyɛ, mate.
