Otura-Obara
"Otura like this, Obara like that"
was cast for two children of the same mother,
who should both sacrifice, in order
to bring their businesses to a good end.
One party sacrificed, the other didn't.
About those who sacrifice we say:
"There affairs are perfectly in order",
while we scorn the refusers by saying:
"They are worthless.
Otura is worthless, Obara is worthless."
Four pigeons and 8000 cowries is the sacrifice.
Ifa says that two children of the same mother
should sacrifice, in order to be able
to work together, so that people will not say
that they are worthless.
