Acts 14
1 And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.
Paulo ne Barnaba duruu Ikoniom no, wɔkɔɔ Yudafoɔ asɔredan mu. Wɔkasa ma Yudafoɔ ne amanamanmufoɔ bebree bɛyɛɛ agyidifoɔ.
2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
Nanso, Yudafoɔ a wɔpoo Awurade asɛm no hwanyan amanamanmufoɔ no, sane tuu wɔn aso tiaa anuanom no.
3 A long time therefore they abode speaking boldly in the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Asomafoɔ no tenaa hɔ kyɛreeɛ. Na Awurade nam tumi a ɔde maa wɔn ma wɔyɛɛ anwanwadeɛ ahodoɔ no so kyerɛɛ sɛ nsɛm a wɔka fa nʼadom ho no yɛ nokorɛ.
4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.
Kuro no mu nnipa no mu kyɛɛ mmienu; ɛfa kɔɔ Yudafoɔ no afa na ɛfa nso kɔɔ asomafoɔ no afa.
5 And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,
Amanamanmufoɔ ne Yudafoɔ no ne wɔn mpanimfoɔ yɛɛ adwene sɛ wɔbɛyɛ wɔn ayayadeɛ, asane asi wɔn aboɔ.
6 Being aware of it, they fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding region:
Asomafoɔ no tee pɔ a wɔbɔ faa wɔn ho no, wɔdwane kɔɔ Listra ne Derbe a ɛwɔ Likaoniaman mu ne nkuraa a atwa ho ahyia no nyinaa ase.
7 And there they preached the gospel.
Wɔkaa Asɛmpa no wɔ hɔ.
8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother’s womb, who had never walked:
Ɛberɛ a Paulo ne Barnaba wɔ Listra no, wɔhunuu ɔbarima bi a na ɔyɛ obubuafoɔ firi nʼawoɔ mu.
9 The same heard Paul speak: who steadfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
Paulo rekasa no, obubuafoɔ no tiee no maa Paulo hunuu sɛ ɔwɔ gyidie a ɛbɛma watumi agyina so asa no yadeɛ. Enti Paulo hwɛɛ obubuafoɔ no
10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.
teaam sɛ, “Sɔre gyina hɔ!” Amonom, obubuafoɔ yi huri gyinaeɛ, hyɛɛ aseɛ nanteeɛ.
11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.
Nnipa no hunuu deɛ Paulo ayɛ no, wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ teateaam wɔ Likaonia kasa mu sɛ, “Anyame ayeyɛ wɔn ho sɛ nnipa aba yɛn nkyɛn.”
12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.
Yei enti wɔfrɛɛ Barnaba Seus ɛnna wɔfrɛɛ Paulo nso Hermes, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno na na ɔka asɛm no.
13 Then the priest of Jupiter, who was before their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.
Seus a na nʼasɔredan wɔ kurotia no ɔsɔfoɔ de nantwie ne nhwiren baa kuro no ɛpono ano, pɛɛ sɛ wɔbɔ afɔdeɛ ma asomafoɔ no.
14 Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they tore their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,
Ɛberɛ a Barnaba ne Paulo tee afɔdeɛ a nnipa no pɛ sɛ wɔbɔ no, wɔde abufuo sunsuanee wɔn ntadeɛ mu, tuu mmirika kɔɔ nnipakuo no mu teateaam sɛ,
15 And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach to you that ye should turn from these vanities to the living God, who made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them:
“Ɛdeɛn na mopɛ sɛ moyɛ yi? Yɛyɛ nnipa te sɛ mo! Yɛaba sɛ yɛrebɛka asɛmpa no akyerɛ mo, ama moagyae saa nneɛma hunu yi yɛ, na mode mo ho ama Onyankopɔn a ɔbɔɔ ɔsoro, asase, ɛpo ne biribiara a ɛwɔ mu.
16 Who in times past allowed all nations to walk in their own ways.
Ɛberɛ bi a atwa mu no, ɔmaa nnipa nyinaa kwan maa wɔyɛɛ deɛ wɔpɛ.
17 Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
Nanso, Onyankopɔn nam nneɛma pa a ɔyɛ so di nʼankasa ho adanseɛ. Mmerɛ a ɛsɛ mu no, ɔma osuo tɔ, ma nnɔbaeɛ ba; ɔma mo aduane di, ma monya ahotɔ.”
18 And with these sayings they scarce restrained the people, from doing sacrifice to them.
Nanso, saa kasa yi nyinaa akyi no, pɛ ara na nnipa no pɛɛ sɛ wɔbɔ afɔdeɛ ma wɔn.
19 And there came there certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.
Yudafoɔ bi firi Antiokia a ɛwɔ Pisidia ne Ikoniom tuu nnipa no aso maa wɔsii Paulo aboɔ, twee no firii kuro no mu; na wɔsusu sɛ wawu.
20 But, as the disciples stood around him, he rose, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.
Nanso, ɛberɛ a agyidifoɔ no bɛtwaa ne ho hyiaeɛ no, ɔsɔre sane kɔɔ kuro no mu. Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, ɔne Barnaba firii hɔ kɔɔ Derbe.
21 And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,
Paulo ne Barnaba kaa asɛmpa no wɔ Derbe maa nnipa pii gye diiɛ. Wɔfiri hɔ no, wɔsane kɔɔ Listra, Ikoniom ne Antiokia a ɛwɔ Pisidia.
22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
Wɔhyɛɛ agyidifoɔ no nkuran sɛ wɔntena ase gyidie mu. Wɔka kyerɛɛ agyidifoɔ yi sɛ, “Ansa na yɛbɛtumi akɔ Onyankopɔn Ahennie mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛfa ɔhaw ahodoɔ pii mu.”
23 And when they had ordained for them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
Asafo biara a wɔkɔɔ mu no, wɔsisii mpanimfoɔ maa wɔn; na wɔnam mpaeɛbɔ ne mmuadadie so de mpanimfoɔ no hyɛɛ Awurade a wɔde wɔn ho ato no so no nsa.
24 And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
Wɔfiri Pisidia no, wɔbaa Pamfilia.
25 And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:
Wɔkaa asɛmpa no wɔ Perge, na wɔfiri hɔ baa Atalia.
26 And from there sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended from to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.
Wɔfiri Atalia no, wɔsane baa Antiokia a ɛhɔ na ɛberɛ a na wɔrebɛfiri saa adwuma a wɔawie yi ase no, wɔde wɔn hyɛɛ Awurade adom nsa no.
27 And when they had come, and had gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done with them, and that he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
Ɛberɛ a wɔduruu Antiokia no, wɔhyiaa asafo no mu nnipa nyinaa. Wɔkaa nneɛma a Onyankopɔn nam wɔn so ayɛ, ne sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn abue ɛkwan ama amanamanmufoɔ agye asɛm no adi no nyinaa kyerɛɛ wɔn.
28 And there they abode a long time with the disciples.
Paulo ne Barnaba tenaa agyidifoɔ no nkyɛn kyɛreeɛ.
