One group said: Making them nominative is correct.

Ẹgbẹ́ kan sọ pé: Ṣíṣe wọn ní àpòkó ni tó.

Another group said: Only accusative is permissible.

Ẹgbẹ́ mìíràn sọ pé: Àpòkó nìkan ni ó tó.

And the answer was unclear to others.

Ìdáhùn sì yà fún àwọn mìíràn.

And the debate among them intensified.

Ìjàmbá náà sì gbóná láàrín wọn.

And that intruder shows the smile of one who knows.

Àti pé ẹni tí ó wọlé náà ń fi ẹ̀rín ẹni tí ó mọ̀ hàn.

Even if he does not utter a single word.

Àní bí ó tilẹ̀ kò sọ ọ̀rọ̀ kan.

Títí tí ìbáwí fi dákẹ́.

And the rebuked and the rebuker fell silent.

Àti ẹni tí wọ́n báwí àti ẹni tí ń báwí dákẹ́.
