Luke 6
1 Now it happened that, on the second first Sabbath, as he passed through the grain field, his disciples were separating the ears of grain and eating them, by rubbing them in their hands.
Homeda bi a Yesu ne nʼasuafo no nam aburowfuw bi mu no asuafo no pempan aburow no bi huan, wee.
2 Then certain Pharisees said to them, “Why are you doing what is not lawful on the Sabbaths?”
Farisifo bi bisaa no se, “Adɛn na moyɛ ade a etia Homeda ho mmara a wɔahyɛ no?”
3 And responding to them, Jesus said: “Have you not read this, what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him?
Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Monkenkan nea Ɔhene Dawid yɛɛ bere a ɔkɔm dee ɔne wɔn a wɔka ne ho no wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu ana?
4 How he entered into the house of God, and took the bread of the Presence, and ate it, and gave it to those who were with him, though it is not lawful for anyone to eat it, except the priests alone?”
Ɔkɔɔ asɔredan mu kɔfaa brodo a wɔde abɔ afɔre ama Onyankopɔn a mmara mma ho kwan sɛ obi di, gye asɔfo nko ara no, de bi maa wɔn a wɔka ne ho no nso dii.”
5 And he said to them, “For the Son of man is Lord, even of the Sabbath.”
Yesu kae se, “Onipa Ba no ne Homeda no wura.”
6 And it happened that, on another Sabbath, he entered into the synagogue, and he taught. And there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.
Homeda foforo bi nso a Yesu rekyerɛkyerɛ wɔ asɔredan mu no, na ɔbarima bi a ne nsa nifa awu nso wɔ hɔ bi.
7 And the scribes and Pharisees observed whether he would heal on the Sabbath, so that they might thereby find an accusation against him.
Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo ne Farisifo no hwɛɛ Yesu komm sɛ ɔbɛsa onipa yi yare Homeda yi nso ana. Nea na wɔrehwehwɛ ara ne sɛ obebu mmara no so asa yare na wɔn nsa aka no akyere no.
8 Yet truly, he knew their thoughts, and so he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Rise up and stand in the middle.” And rising up, he stood still.
Yesu huu wɔn adwene nanso ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no se, “Sɔre begyina anim ha, na obiara nhu wo.” Ɔbarima no sɔre begyinaa hɔ.
9 Then Jesus said to them: “I ask you if it is lawful on the Sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? To give health to a life, or to destroy it?”
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Merebisa mo. Dɛn na mmara no ma ho kwan sɛ yɛnyɛ no Homeda; sɛ yɛbɛyɛ papa anaa yɛbɛyɛ bɔne, sɛ yebegye obi nkwa anaasɛ yɛbɛma wawu?”
10 And looking around at everyone, he said to the man, “Extend your hand.” And he extended it. And his hand was restored.
Yesu hwɛɛ wɔn nyinaa hyiae na ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no se, “Teɛ wo nsa.” Na ɔteɛɛ ne nsa no, emu yɛɛ den sɛ baako no.
11 Then they were filled with madness, and they discussed with one another, what, in particular, they might do about Jesus.
Nea Yesu yɛe yi hyɛɛ nnipa no abufuw yiye ma wofii ase bɔɔ ne ho pɔw.
12 And it happened that, in those days, he went out to a mountain to pray. And he was in the prayer of God throughout the night.
Da bi a Yesu kɔɔ bepɔw bi so sɛ ɔrekɔbɔ mpae no ɔbɔɔ mpae anadwo mu no nyinaa
13 And when daylight had arrived, he called his disciples. And he chose twelve out of them (whom he also named Apostles):
Ade kyee no ɔfrɛɛ nʼakyidifo no nyinaa baa ne nkyɛn na ɔpaw wɔn mu dumien. Saa dumien yi na ɔfrɛɛ wɔn asomafo.
14 Simon, whom he surnamed Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
Wɔn din na edidi so yi: Simon, a ɔtoo ne din Petro; Andrea, Simon nua; Yakobo, Yohane, Filipo, Bartolomeo,
15 Matthew and Thomas, James of Alphaeus, and Simon who is called the Zealot,
Mateo, Toma, Yakobo a ɔyɛ Alfeo ba; Simon, a wɔfrɛ no Selote;
16 and Jude of James, and Judas Iscariot, who was a traitor.
Yuda a ɔyɛ Yakobo ba; ne Yuda Iskariot a oyii Yesu mae no.
17 And descending with them, he stood in a level place with a multitude of his disciples, and a copious multitude of people from all of Judea and Jerusalem and the seacoast, and Tyre and Sidon,
Yesu fii bepɔw no so sian baa fam maa nʼakyidifo bebree ne nnipakuw a wofi Yudea, Yerusalem ne mpoano nkurow Tiro ne Sidon mu no betwaa ne ho hyiae.
18 who had come so that they might listen to him and be healed of their diseases. And those who were troubled by unclean spirits were cured.
Wɔbae sɛ wɔrebetie no ama wasa wɔn nyarewa nso. Otuu ahonhommɔne bebree.
19 And the entire crowd was trying to touch him, because power went out from him and healed all.
Obiara bɔɔ mmɔden sɛ ɔde ne nsa bɛka Yesu. Ayarefo a wɔde wɔn nsa kaa Yesu no nyinaa ho tɔɔ wɔn.
20 And lifting up his eyes to his disciples, he said: “Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
Afei ɔdan nʼani ka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafo no se, “Nhyira ne mo a moyɛ ahiafo, na mo na Onyankopɔn ahenni no yɛ mo dea!
21 Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you shall be satisfied. Blessed are you who are weeping now, for you shall laugh.
Nhyira ne mo a ɔkɔm de mo, na mo na wɔbɛma mo amee. Nhyira ne mo a mo werɛ ahow, na mo na wɔbɛma mo ani agye.
22 Blessed shall you be when men will have hated you, and when they will have separated you and reproached you, and thrown out your name as if evil, because of the Son of man.
Nhyira ne mo a me din nti, nnipa tan mo, na wɔpa mo na wɔyaw mo, na wogu mo din ho fi.
23 Be glad in that day and exult. For behold, your reward is great in heaven. For these same things their fathers did to the prophets.
“Sɛ ɛba saa a, momma mo ani nnye na munni ahurusi! Munni ahurusi, efisɛ mo akatua retwɛn mo wɔ ɔsoro. Na saa ara nso na wɔn agyanom yɛɛ tete adiyifo no.
24 Yet truly, woe to you who are wealthy, for you have your consolation.
“Na mo adefo de, munnue efisɛ nea ɛma mo ani gye no, mo nsa aka dedaw; eyi nti munni kyɛfa biara bio.
25 Woe to you who are satisfied, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.
Munnue, mo a moamee mprempren, na mo na ɔkɔm bɛde mo! Munnue, mo a moreserew mprempren, na mo na mubesi apini asu.
26 Woe to you when men will have blessed you. For these same things their fathers did to the false prophets.
Munnue, mo a nnipa kamfo mo, efisɛ saa ara na wɔn nenanom kamfoo atoro adiyifo no.”
27 But I say to you who are listening: Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you.
“Mereka akyerɛ mo a moretie me no nyinaa se monnɔ mo atamfo; monyɛ wɔn a wɔtan mo no papa.
28 Bless those who curse you, and pray for those who slander you.
Munhyira wɔn a wɔdome mo; mommɔ mpae mma wɔn a wɔtan mo.
29 And to him who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your coat, do not withhold even your tunic.
Sɛ obi bɔ wʼasom a, dan baako a aka no ma no. Sɛ obi pa wo ntama a, worɔw wʼatade ka ho.
30 But distribute to all who ask of you. And do not ask again of him who takes away what is yours.
Sɛ obi srɛ wo biribi a, fa ma no. Obi gye wʼade a, mmisa no bio.
31 And exactly as you would want people to treat you, treat them also the same.
Na nea mopɛ sɛ nnipa nyɛ mo no, mo nso monyɛ wɔn saa ara.
32 And if you love those who love you, what credit is due to you? For even sinners love those who love them.
“Na sɛ modɔ wɔn a wɔdɔ mo no nko ara a, mfaso bɛn na mubenya? ‘Nnebɔneyɛfo’ nso dɔ wɔn a wɔdɔ wɔn no.
33 And if you will do good to those who do good to you, what credit is due to you? Indeed, even sinners behave this way.
Na sɛ moyɛ wɔn a wɔyɛ mo papa no nko ara yiye a, mfaso bɛn na mubenya? Nnebɔneyɛfo mpo yɛ wɔn a wɔyɛ wɔn papa no nso yiye.
34 And if you will loan to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is due to you? For even sinners lend to sinners, in order to receive the same in return.
Na sɛ mobɔ wɔn a mususuw sɛ wobetumi atua no nko ara bosea a, papa bɛn na moayɛ? Nnebɔneyɛfo nso bobɔbobɔ wɔn ho wɔn ho bosea, a wɔhwɛ sɛ wɔn nsa bɛka wɔn sika bio.
35 So truly, love your enemies. Do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return. And then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he himself is kind to the ungrateful and to the wicked.
Monnɔ mo atamfo. Monyɛ wɔn papa. Momma wɔn nea ehia wɔn a, mo ani nni akyi bio. Na sɛ moyɛ eyinom a mo akatua bɛyɛ kɛse wɔ ɔsoro na moayɛ Onyankopɔn mma; efisɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ nnebɔneyɛfo adɔe, na ɔdom bonniayɛfo nso.
36 Therefore, be merciful, just as your Father is also merciful.
Monyɛ mmɔborɔhunufo sɛnea mo Agya a ɔwɔ ɔsoro no yɛ mmɔborɔhunufo no.
37 Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
“Mummmu ntɛn, na wɔammu mo ntɛn; mummmu fɔ, na wɔammu mo fɔ; momfa nkyɛ, na wɔde akyɛ mo.
38 Give, and it will be given to you: a good measure, pressed down and shaken together and overflowing, they will place upon your lap. Certainly, the same measure that you use to measure out, will be used to measure back to you again.”
Sɛ moma a, wɔbɛhyɛ mo anan mu. Nea mode ma no, wɔde susudua a wɔahyɛ no ma, amia so ama abu so na ebesusuw ama mo. Susudua a mode besusuw ama no, ɛno ara na wɔde besusuw ama mo.”
39 Now he told them another comparison: “How can the blind lead the blind? Would they not both fall into a pit?
Yesu nam mmebu so kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn bio se, “Onifuraefo betumi akyerɛ onifuraefo kwan ama ayɛ yiye ana? Sɛ ɛba saa a, wɔn baanu nyinaa bɛtɔ amoa mu.
40 The disciple is not above his teacher. But each one will be perfected, if he is like his teacher.
Osuani nsen ne wura. Nanso sɛ ɔyere ne ho sua nea wɔrekyerɛ no no yiye a ɔbɛsɛ ne wura no.
41 And why do you see the straw that is in your brother’s eye, while the log that is in your own eye, you do not consider?
“Adɛn nti na wohwɛ dua ntɛtɛ a ɛda wo nua ani so, bere a mpuran a ɛda wo de so no mfa wo ho?
42 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, allow me to remove the straw from your eye,’ while you yourself do not see the log in your own eye? Hypocrite, first remove the log from your own eye, and then will you see clearly, so that you may lead out the straw from your brother’s eye.
Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na woatumi aka akyerɛ wo nua se, ‘Ma minhuw dua ntɛtɛ a ɛda wʼani so no mma wo,’ wɔ bere a mpuran a ɛda wʼani so no mfa wo ho. Nyaatwom, di kan yi mpuran a ɛda wʼani so no ansa na woatumi ahuw ntɛtɛ a ɛda wo nua ani so no ama no.
43 For there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor does an evil tree produce good fruit.
“Dua pa nsow aba bɔne, na dua bɔne nso nsow aba pa.
44 For each and every tree is known by its fruit. For they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather the grape from the bramble bush.
Dua biara aba na wɔnam so hu dua ko a ɛyɛ. Worentumi ntew borɔdɔma mfi nware so.
45 A good man, from the good storehouse of his heart, offers what is good. And an evil man, from the evil storehouse, offers what is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
Onipa pa fi nnepa a ɛwɔ ne koma mu yɛ ade pa. Saa ara nso na onipa bɔne nso fi ne nnebɔne a ɛwɔ ne koma mu yɛ ade bɔne. Nea ahyɛ onipa koma ma no, na epue fi nʼano.
46 But why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I say?
“Adɛn nti na mofrɛ me ‘Awurade,’ nanso munni mʼasɛm so?
47 Anyone who comes to me, and listens to my words, and does them: I will reveal to you what he is like.
Merekyerɛ mo sɛnea onipa biara a ɔba me nkyɛn, na otie mʼasɛm di so no te.
48 He is like a man building a house, who has dug deep and has laid the foundation upon the rock. Then, when the floodwaters came, the river was rushing against that house, and it was not able to move it. For it was founded upon the rock.
Ɔte sɛ obi a na ɔresi dan na ɔtoo ne dan no fapem ma esii ɔbotan so. Na osu tɔ maa nsu no yiri bɛbɔ faa ɔdan no ase nanso ammu, efisɛ osi sii ɔbotan so.
49 But whoever hears and does not do: he is like a man building his house upon the soil, without a foundation. The river rushed against it, and it soon fell down, and the ruin of that house was great.”
Na nea ɔte mʼasɛm na onni so no te sɛ obi a ɔresi dan, na osii dan no sii nwea so, na osu tɔ maa nsu no yiri bɛbɔ faa ase ma edwiriw sɛee pasaa.”
