John 21
1 After these things, Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. He revealed himself this way.
Akyire no, Yesu yii ne ho adi bio wɔ Tiberia Po ho kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no mu bi. Ɛkwan a ɔfaa so yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ wɔn no nie:
2 Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together.
Saa ɛberɛ no, na Simon Petro, ne Toma (a wɔfrɛ no Ata), ne Natanael a ɔfiri Kana a ɛwɔ Galilea ne Sebedeo mma ne Yesu asuafoɔ no mu baanu na na wɔwɔ ɔtadeɛ no ho.
3 Simon Peter said to them, “I’m going fishing.” They told him, “We are also coming with you.” They immediately went out and entered into the boat. That night, they caught nothing.
Wɔwɔ hɔ no, Petro ka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wɔaka no sɛ, “Merekɔyi nam.” Wɔn a na wɔka ne ho no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne wo bɛkɔ.” Wɔn nyinaa kɔtenaa kodoɔ mu kɔɔ ɛpo, nanso saa anadwo no wɔanyi nam biara.
4 But when day had already come, Jesus stood on the beach; yet the disciples didn’t know that it was Jesus.
Adeɛ kyee anɔpa a anim retete no, Yesu bɛgyinaa mpoano hɔ, nanso na asuafoɔ no nnim sɛ ɛyɛ ɔno.
5 Jesus therefore said to them, “Children, have you anything to eat?” They answered him, “No.”
Ɔfrɛɛ asuafoɔ no bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Anuanom, moayi nam bi anaa?” Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Dabi.”
6 He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” They cast it therefore, and now they weren’t able to draw it in for the multitude of fish.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mongu mo asau no wɔ nifa fam na mobɛyi nam.” Wɔguu asau no sɛdeɛ ɔkaeɛ no. Nam yɛɛ asau no ma sei tɔ a na wɔtwe a ɛntwe.
7 That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It’s the Lord!” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his coat around himself (for he was naked), and threw himself into the sea.
Afei, osuani a Yesu dɔ no no ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Awurade.” Ɛberɛ a Simon Petro tee sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade no, ɔhyɛɛ nʼatadeɛ, huri tɔɔ nsuo no mu dware kɔɔ mpoano hɔ.
8 But the other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits away), dragging the net full of fish.
Asuafoɔ a wɔaka no tenaa kodoɔ no mu baa mpoano hɔ bi. Wɔreba no, na wɔretwe asau a na nam ahyɛ no ma sei tɔ no. Ɛkwan a ɛfiri faako a wɔwɔ wɔ ɛpo no so ba mpoano hɔ no bɛyɛ mita ɔha.
9 So when they got out on the land, they saw a fire of coals there, with fish and bread laid on it.
Wɔduruu mpoano hɔ no wɔhunuu sɛ obi asɔ ogya retoto nam na burodo bi nso gu nkyɛn.
10 Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.”
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Momfa nam a moayi no bi mmra.”
11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of one hundred fifty-three great fish. Even though there were so many, the net wasn’t torn.
Simon Petro foro kɔɔ kodoɔ no mu kɔtwee asau a na nam akɛseɛ bɛyɛ ɔha aduonum mmiɛnsa wɔ mu no baa mpoano hɔ. Ɛwom sɛ na nam ayɛ asau no ma deɛ, nanso antete.
12 Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast!” None of the disciples dared inquire of him, “Who are you?” knowing that it was the Lord.
Yesu frɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mommɛdidi.” Asuafoɔ no mu biara ammisa no onipa ko a ɔyɛ ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔnim sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade.
13 Then Jesus came and took the bread, gave it to them, and the fish likewise.
Yesu faa burodo no kyekyɛ maa wɔn. Yei akyi no, ɔkyɛɛ nam a na wɔatoto no nso maa wɔn.
14 This is now the third time that Jesus was revealed to his disciples after he had risen from the dead.
Yei ne ne mprɛnsa so a Yesu sɔre firii awufoɔ mu no, ɔyii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no.
15 So when they had eaten their breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I have affection for you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.”
Wɔdidi wieeɛ no, Yesu bisaa Simon Petro sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, wodɔ me sene sɛdeɛ yeinom dɔ me no anaa?” Petro buaa sɛ, “Aane, Awurade, wonim sɛ medɔ wo.” Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne me nnwammaa.”
16 He said to him again a second time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I have affection for you.” He said to him, “Tend my sheep.”
Yesu sane bisaa no sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, wodɔ me anaa?” Petro sane buaa sɛ, “Aane, Awurade, wonim sɛ medɔ wo.” Yesu sane ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hwɛ me nnwan.”
17 He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you have affection for me?” Peter was grieved because he asked him the third time, “Do you have affection for me?” He said to him, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I have affection for you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep.
Yesu bisaa no ne mprɛnsa so sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, ampa ara sɛ wodɔ me?” Asɛm yi yɛɛ Petro awerɛhoɔ sɛ Yesu abisa no saa asɛm korɔ no ara mprɛnsa. Enti, ɔka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Awurade, wonim biribiara, na wonim nso sɛ, medɔ wo!” Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne me nnwan.
18 Most certainly I tell you, when you were young, you dressed yourself and walked where you wanted to. But when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you don’t want to go.”
Meka nokorɛ akyerɛ wo. Woyɛ aberanteɛ no, na wotumi siesie wo ho kɔ baabiara a wopɛ, na woyɛ deɛ wopɛ biara nso. Nanso, sɛ wobɔ akɔkoraa a, wobɛtene wo nsam na obi asiesie wo ho ama wo, de wo akɔ baabi a anka wompɛ sɛ wokɔ.”
19 Now he said this, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God. When he had said this, he said to him, “Follow me.”
Asɛm a Yesu kaeɛ no, ɔde kyerɛɛ owu ko a Petro bɛwu de ahyɛ Onyankopɔn animuonyam. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Di mʼakyi.”
20 Then Peter, turning around, saw a disciple following. This was the disciple whom Jesus loved, the one who had also leaned on Jesus’ chest at the supper and asked, “Lord, who is going to betray you?”
Petro twaa nʼani hwɛɛ nʼakyi hunuu sɛ osuani a Yesu dɔ no no di wɔn akyi. Saa osuani yi ne obi a wɔredidi no, ɔtwe bɛn Yesu bisaa no sɛ, “Awurade, hwan na ɔbɛyi wo ama” no?
21 Peter, seeing him, said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?”
Petro hunuu saa osuani yi no, ɔbisaa Yesu sɛ, “Awurade, na yei nso ɛdeɛn na ɛbɛto no?”
22 Jesus said to him, “If I desire that he stay until I come, what is that to you? You follow me.”
Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Sɛ mepɛ sɛ ɔtena hɔ kɔsi sɛ mɛsane aba a, ɛfa wo ho bɛn? Wo deɛ, di mʼakyi.”
23 This saying therefore went out among the brothers that this disciple wouldn’t die. Yet Jesus didn’t say to him that he wouldn’t die, but, “If I desire that he stay until I come, what is that to you?”
Asɛm a Yesu ka faa saa osuani yi ho no maa Yesu akyidifoɔ no mu pii susuu sɛ, saa osuani no renwu da. Nanso, na ɛnyɛ deɛ Yesu hwehwɛ akyerɛ ne no, ɛberɛ a ɔkaa sɛ, “Sɛ mepɛ sɛ ɔtena hɔ kɔsi sɛ mɛsane aba a, ɛfa wo ho bɛn?”
24 This is the disciple who testifies about these things, and wrote these things. We know that his witness is true.
Saa osuani yi ne onipa a ɔdi yeinom nyinaa ho adanseɛ na ɔtwerɛeɛ nso. Yɛnim sɛ nʼadanseɛ no yɛ nokorɛ.
25 There are also many other things which Jesus did, which if they would all be written, I suppose that even the world itself wouldn’t have room for the books that would be written.
Nneɛma bebree wɔ hɔ nso a Yesu yɛeɛ a wɔantwerɛ, na sɛ wɔtwerɛeɛ no mmaako mmaako a, anka megye di sɛ ɛrensene ewiase.
