Luke 13
1 Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
Saa bere no na nnipa bi bɛka kyerɛɛ Yesu se Pilato akum Galileafo bi a wɔrebɔ afɔre ama Onyankopɔn na ɔde wɔn mogya afra afɔrebɔ no.
2 And he answered and said to them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered these things?
Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Mugye di sɛ saa Galileafo no yɛ nnebɔneyɛfo sen wɔn a aka no nyinaa nti na wokum wɔn no?
3 I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.
Dabi da, sɛ mo nso moansakra mo adwene a, wobekunkum mo saa ara.
4 Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who dwell in Jerusalem?
Anaasɛ mususuw sɛ nnipa dunwɔtwe a Siloa abantenten no bu guu wɔn so, kunkum wɔn no yɛ nnebɔneyɛfo sen nnipa a na wɔte Yerusalem no?
5 I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."
Dabi da, mo nso moansakra a, mubewuwu saa ara.”
6 He spoke this parable. "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.
Afei Yesu buu wɔn bɛ yi se, “Ɔbarima bi duaa borɔdɔma wɔ ne turo mu. Da bi ɔkɔɔ turo no mu hɔ sɛ ɔrekɔtew so aba no bi nanso wannya bi.
7 He said to the vine dresser, 'Look, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?'
Ɛno akyi, ɔfrɛɛ turo no sohwɛfo no ka kyerɛɛ no se, ‘Mfe abiɛsa ni, bere biara a mɛba sɛ merebɛtew borɔdɔma no bi no, minnya bi. Adɛn nti na ɛresɛe kwa yi? Twa kyene.’
8 He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.
“Turo no sohwɛfo no srɛɛ no se, ‘Me wura, ma ensi hɔ afe yi nso na mingugu ase sumina nhwɛ
9 And if it bears fruit next time, [fine]; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
sɛ ebia, ɛbɛsow aba bi ana, na sɛ antumi ansow a ɛno de metwa akyene.’”
10 He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.
Homeda bi a Yesu rekyerɛkyerɛ wɔ hyiadan mu no,
11 And look, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.
na ɔbea bi wɔ hɔ a honhommɔne mu ɔyare bi akyere no mfe dunwɔtwe ama ne mu akoa a ontumi nteɛ ne mu koraa.
12 When Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."
Yesu huu no no, ɔfrɛɛ no fii nnipa no mu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɔbea, wo ho nyɛ wo den.”
13 He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.
Ɔde ne nsa guu ne so, na amono mu hɔ ara otumi teɛɛ ne mu. Na ɔbea no yii Onyankopɔn ayɛ.
14 The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days when work should be done Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day."
Hyiadan no so panyin a ohuu ɔbea no ayaresa no de abufuw kae se, “Nnansia na ɛsɛ sɛ mode yɛ adwuma a saa nna no mu na ɛsɛ sɛ moba ma wɔsa mo yare, na ɛnyɛ homeda.”
15 Therefore the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites. Does not each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and lead him away to water?
Na Awurade buaa no se, “Nyaatwomfo! Mo mu hena na ɔnsan ne nantwi anaa nʼafurum na ɔnka no nkɔnom nsu homeda?
16 Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, look, eighteen years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?"
Adɛn nti na Abraham aseni yi a ɔbonsam afa no nnommum mfe dunwɔtwe ni no ɛnsɛ sɛ mesa no yare homeda?”
17 As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the crowd rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
Ɔkaa saa no, wɔn a na wɔne nʼadwene nhyia no nyinaa ani wui. Nnipa no nso a na wɔwɔ hyiadan no mu nyinaa ani gyee nʼanwonwade ahorow a ɔyɛe no nyinaa ho.
18 Then he said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? And to what can I compare it?
Afei Yesu fii ase kyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn ahenni no ho asɛm, na obisaa wɔn se, “Onyankopɔn ahenni no te dɛn? Na dɛn na memfa nto ho nkyerɛkyerɛ ase?
19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches."
Onyankopɔn ahenni no te sɛ onyaa aba ketewa bi a obi duaa wɔ nʼafuw mu na enyin yɛɛ dutan kɛse maa nnomaa kɔnwen wɔn mmerebuw wɔ so.”
20 And again he said, "To what can I compare the Kingdom of God?
Obisaa bio se, “Dɛn bio na memfa ntoto ho nkyerɛ ase?
21 It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened."
Ɛte sɛ mmɔkaw bi a brodotofo de fɔtɔw mmɔre ma etu.”
22 He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.
Bere a Yesu rekɔ Yerusalem no, ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔ nkurow so ne nkuraa ase ansa na ɔredu hɔ.
23 One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?" He said to them,
Ne nkyerɛkyerɛ no mu no, obi bisaa no se, “Awurade, nnipa kakraa bi na wobegye wɔn nkwa ana?” Obuaa no se,
24 "Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
“Mompere nhyɛn ɔpon teateaa no mu, efisɛ nnipa pii bɛhwehwɛ sɛ wobewura mu, nanso wɔrentumi.
25 When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us.' then he will answer and tell you, 'I do not know you or where you come from.'
Sɛ ɛba sɛ ofiwura no ato ɔpon no mu a, mobɛba abegyina akyi abɔ mu, aka se, ‘Owura, yɛsrɛ wo bue yɛn.’ “Na ɔno nso abisa mo se, ‘Mufi he? Minnim mo?’
26 Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'
“Na mo nso moaka akyerɛ no se, ‘Yɛne wo too nsa didii na wokyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔ yɛn mmorɔn so.’
27 But he will reply, 'I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'
“Na ofiwura no nso bebisa mo bio se, ‘Mufi he? Minnim mo. Mumfi mʼani so nkɔ, mo nnebɔneyɛfo!’
28 There will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.
“Na sɛ muhu Abraham, Isak, Yakob ne nkɔmhyɛfo no nyinaa sɛ wɔwɔ Onyankopɔn ahenni no mu a, mode mo nsa begu mo ti atwa agyaadwo, efisɛ wɔbɛtow mo agu sum kabii mu.
29 They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.
Nnipa fi apuei ne atɔe nyinaa behyia wɔ Onyankopɔn ahenni no mu hɔ ato nsa adidi.
30 And look, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."
Na monkae sɛ akyikafo bi wɔ hɔ a, wobedi kan, na adikanfo bi nso wɔ hɔ a, wɔbɛka akyi.”
31 In that same hour some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."
Saa bere no ara mu na Farisifo bi baa Yesu nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fi ha kɔ, efisɛ Herode rehwehwɛ wo akum wo.”
32 And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Look, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monkɔka nkyerɛ sakraman no se, ‘mitu ahonhommɔne, na masa nyarewa nnɛ ne ɔkyena na ne nnansa so no, medu Yerusalem.’
33 Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.'
Nanso ɛsɛ sɛ menantew nnɛ ne ɔkyena ne nʼadekyee, na otwa ara na etwa sɛ odiyifo bewu wɔ Yerusalem!
34 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused.
“Yerusalem, Yerusalem, wo a wukum adiyifo na wusiw wɔn a wɔsoma wɔn wo nkyɛn no abo! Mpɛn ahe ni a mepɛɛ sɛ meboaboa wo mma ano sɛ akokɔbeatan boaboa ne mma ano wɔ ne ntaban ase nanso moampene so.
35 Look, your house is abandoned to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
Na mo afi bɛdan afituw na morenhu me kosi sɛ mobɛka se, ‘Nhyira ne nea ɔnam Awurade din mu reba no!’”
