A farmer's crop was not coming along: an envious man went every night to run his hands over it to ruin him. The Awó marked him the ebbó of the trap, set in the field, with the rooster for Eshu. That night a shout was heard: the enemy had hurt his hands in the trap — and the whole thing came out. Maferefún Eshu, Orunmila and Shangó.
A man had planted yam and watched the days go by without it doing well. Seeing it like that, he went to get a reading with the town's Awó, who in the osode saw this Odù for him: "An envious man goes to your field every night and passes his hands over it so that it does not grow, so that you are ruined. To catch him, you have to make ebbó with a rooster, a trap, four yams, thorns, colored cloths and plenty of ashé."
Once the ebbó was made, the Awó ordered it placed among the plants; the rooster went to Eshu. Late that night, a scream broke the silence: the enemy had torn his hands on the trap in the ebbó when he went to pass them over the field. And in the other road of this same envy, the yam complained to Eshu, who did his work, and when the man came back to lay a hand on it he was pricked — and it all came out. Maferefún Eshu, Orunmila and Shangó.
