History of the Sixteen Major Odu Ifa

Odu Eji Ogbe or Ogbe-Meji

ODU EJI OGBE

okanjuwa kii je won omo o pin.
Eni apa tosi
Niwon fun nitan
Eni gegesi aya tosi
Niwon fun ni komookun
Adifa fun awon Odu mereerindinlogun
Tiwon rele Olodumare
Tiwon oolore joba wale aye…Aboru Aboye…

Greediness has blinded their sense of proportion
He that deserves the arm was given the thigh
He that deserves the chest was given buttocks
This is the reading lot of all the sixteen sacred Odus
When they went to Olodumare
To choose a king for them before going to earth…
Aboru Aboye
