Luke 21
1 He looked up and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury.
Yesu te asɔredan mu hɔ no, ohuu asikafo bi a wɔde wɔn afɔrebɔde akɛseakɛse regu afɔrebɔ adaka no mu.
2 He saw a certain poor widow casting in two small brass coins.
Ohuu okunafo hiani bi nso sɛ ɔde sika kakraa bi too afɔre adaka no mu.
3 He said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them,
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ nnipa a na wɔwɔ asɔredan mu hɔ no se, “Nokware ni, afɔre a okunafo hiani yi bɛbɔɔ no som bo sen afɔre akɛseakɛse a asikafo no bɛbɔɔ no nyinaa.
4 for all these put in gifts for God from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on.”
Wɔn nyinaa de nea wɔanya ama aboro so no bi na ɛbɛbɔɔ afɔre, na oyi de, ofi ne hia mu de ne sika a ɔwɔ nyinaa na abegu mu yi.”
5 As some were talking about the temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts, he said,
Yesu akyidifo no bi kamfoo abo fɛfɛ a wɔde sii asɔredan no ne adwinni ahorow a wɔadi agu ɔdan no ho no. Nanso Yesu kae se,
6 “As for these things which you see, the days will come in which there will not be left here one stone on another that will not be thrown down.”
“Bere bi bɛba a, wobedwiriw nneɛma a morekamfo yi nyinaa agu a hwee renka.”
7 They asked him, “Teacher, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?”
Wobisaa no se, “Kyerɛkyerɛfo, bere bɛn na asɛm a woreka yi besi, na ho nsɛnkyerɛnne bɛyɛ dɛn?”
8 He said, “Watch out that you don’t get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is at hand.’ Therefore don’t follow them.
Yesu buae se, “Monhwɛ mo ho so yiye na obi annaadaa mo, efisɛ nnipa pii bɛsɔre aka se, ‘Mene Kristo no’ na bere no abɛn, nanso monnnye wɔn nni!
9 When you hear of wars and disturbances, don’t be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won’t come immediately.”
Sɛ mote akokoakoko ne sɛ wɔsɔre tia aman a, munnsuro efisɛ ɛsɛ sɛ saa nneɛma yi di kan ba nanso na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ awiei no abɛn.”
10 Then he said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
Ɔkaa bio se, “Aman bɛsɔre aman so na ahenni asɔre ahenni so.
11 There will be great earthquakes, famines, and plagues in various places. There will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
Asasewosow a ɛyɛ hu bɛba, ɔkɔm bɛba na nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu befi wim asisi.
12 But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for my name’s sake.
“Nanso ansa na eyinom nyinaa besisi no, me din nti, wɔbɛtaa mo akyekyere mo, de mo akɔ hyiadan mu ne afiase ne ahemfo ne atumfo anim.
13 It will turn out as a testimony for you.
Eyi bɛma moanya kwan adi me ho adanse.
14 Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer,
Nanso, monnnwene nsɛm a mobɛka de ayi mo ho ano no ho;
15 for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.
Efisɛ mɛma mo nsɛm ne nyansa a mode beyi mo ho ano a mo atamfo rentumi nnyina mo anim.
16 You will be handed over even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends. They will cause some of you to be put to death.
Mo awofo, mo nuanom, mo abusuafo ne mo nnamfonom beyi mo ama na wobekum mo mu bi.
17 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake.
Na me nti nnipa bɛtan mo.
18 And not a hair of your head will perish.
Nanso mo tinwi baako pɛ mpo renyera.
19 “By your endurance you will win your lives.
Na sɛ mutumi gyina pintinn a, mubenya nkwa a enni awiei.”
20 “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand.
“Sɛ muhu sɛ asraafo atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ne sɛe abɛn.
21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the middle of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter therein.
Saa bere no wɔn a wɔte Yudea nguan nkɔ mmepɔw no so; wɔn a wɔwɔ kurow no mu no nguan mfi mu, na wɔn nso a wɔwɔ nkuraa ne mfuw mu no ntena hɔ ara.
22 For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
Saa bere yi mu na Onyankopɔn asotwe a adiyifo no hyɛɛ ho nkɔm wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu no bɛba mu.
23 Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath to this people.
Wɔn a wɔafa afuru ne wɔn a wɔma mma nufu no nnue. Amanehunu a enni kabea bɛba ɔman no so na Onyankopɔn abufuwhyew nso aba nnipa no so.
24 They will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
Ebinom bɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano na wɔafa ebinom nso nnommum de wɔn akɔ amanaman so na amanaman bɛsɛe Yerusalem, adi so akosi bere a Onyankopɔn ahyehyɛ sɛ amanaman nni wɔn so no betwa mu.”
25 “There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth anxiety of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the waves;
“Nsɛnkyerɛnne bɛba owia, ɔsram ne nsoromma mu na po asorɔkye bɛbobɔ mu, aworo so ama ne nnyigyei dennen no de ahoyeraw aba aman nyinaa so.
26 men fainting for fear and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Esiane nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu a ɛbɛba asase so no nti, nnipa pii bɛtotɔ piti na abɔde a ɛwɔ wim nso awosow ahoɔden so.
27 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
Saa bere no na wobehu Onipa Ba no sɛ ɔde tumi ne anuonyam a ɛso nam omununkum mu reba.
28 But when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near.”
Sɛ saa asɛm yi fi ase sisi a, momfa gyidi nnyina pintinn, efisɛ na mo nkwagye bere abɛn.”
29 He told them a parable. “See the fig tree and all the trees.
Yesu buu wɔn bɛ bi se, “Monhwɛ borɔdɔma ne nnua nyinaa.
30 When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.
Sɛ eyiyi nhaban foforo a na ɛkyerɛ sɛ asusow bere adu.
31 Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that God’s Kingdom is near.
Saa ara nso na sɛ muhu nsɛnkyerɛnne a mereka ho asɛm yi a, munhu sɛ Onyankopɔn ahenni no abɛn.
32 Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.
“Nokware mise mo sɛ, awo ntoatoaso yi rentwa mu, gye sɛ saa nneɛma yi nyinaa aba mu ansa.
33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.
Ɔsoro ne asase betwa mu akɔ, nanso me nsɛm de, ɛrentwa mu da.
34 “So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly.
“Monhwɛ mo ho so yiye! Mommma adiditraso ne asabow ne asetena mu dadwen nni mo so, anyɛ saa a, me ba a mɛba bio no befu mo mu.
35 For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth.
Efisɛ me ba a mɛba no befu nnipa a wɔte asase so nyinaa mu.
36 Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
Monwɛn. Bere biara mommɔ mpae na moanya ahoɔden de agyina saa nneɛma yi nyinaa ano na mesan ba bio a, moatumi agyina mʼanim.”
37 Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.
Da biara, na Yesu kɔ asɔredan mu hɔ kɔkyerɛkyerɛ, na sɛ edu anwummere biara a, Yesu kɔ Ngo Bepɔw no so kɔhome.
38 All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.
Na nnipa pii sɔre anɔpahema biara kotie no wɔ asɔredan mu.
