Luke 13
1 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
Saa ɛberɛ no ara mu, nnipa bi bɛka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, Pilato akum Galileafoɔ bi a wɔrebɔ afɔdeɛ ama Onyankopɔn, de wɔn mogya fraa afɔrebɔ no.
2 And Jesus answering said to them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Mogye di sɛ saa Galileafoɔ no yɛ nnebɔneyɛfoɔ sene wɔn a aka no nyinaa enti na wɔkumm wɔn no?
3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Dabi, sɛ mo nso moannu mo ho a, wɔbɛkunkum mo saa ara.
4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
Anaasɛ mosusu sɛ nnipa dunwɔtwe a Siloa abantenten no bu guu wɔn so, kumm wɔn no yɛ nnebɔneyɛfoɔ sene nnipa a na wɔte Yerusalem no?
5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Dabi, mo nso moannu mo ho a, mobɛwuwu saa ara.”
6 He spoke also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit on it, and found none.
Afei, Yesu buu wɔn bɛ yi sɛ, “Ɔbarima bi duaa borɔdɔma wɔ ne turo mu. Ɛda bi ɔkɔɔ turo no mu hɔ sɛ ɔrekɔte ɛso aba no bi nanso wannya bi.
7 Then said he to the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?
Ɛno akyi, ɔfrɛɛ turo no sohwɛfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Mfeɛ mmiɛnsa ni, ɛberɛ biara a mɛba sɛ merebɛte borɔdɔma no bi no, mennya bi. Adɛn enti na ɛresɛe kwa yi? Twa twene.’
8 And he answering said to him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
“Turo no sohwɛfoɔ no srɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Me wura, ma ɛnsi hɔ afeɛ yi nso na mengugu aseɛ sumina nhwɛ
9 And if it shall bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.
sɛ ebia, ɛbɛso aba bi anaa, na sɛ antumi anso a, ɛnneɛ mɛtwa atwene.’”
10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.
Homeda bi a Yesu rekyerɛkyerɛ wɔ hyiadan mu no,
11 And, behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no way raise herself.
na ɔbaa bi wɔ hɔ a honhommɔne mu yadeɛ bi akyere no mfeɛ dunwɔtwe ama ne mu akoa a ɔntumi ntene ne mu koraa.
12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thy infirmity.
Yesu hunuu no no, ɔfrɛɛ no firii nnipa no mu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɔbaa, wo ho nyɛ wo den.”
13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
Ɔde ne nsa guu ne so, na amonom hɔ ara ɔtumi tenee ne mu. Na ɔbaa no yii Onyankopɔn ayɛ.
14 And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because Jesus had healed on the sabbath, and said to the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day.
Hyiadan no so panin a ɔhunuu ɔbaa no ayaresa no de abufuo kaa sɛ, “Nnansia na ɛsɛ sɛ mode yɛ adwuma a saa nna no mu na ɛsɛ sɛ moba ma wɔsa mo yadeɛ, na ɛnyɛ homeda.”
15 The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his donkey from the stall, and lead him away to watering?
Na Awurade buaa no sɛ, “Nyaatwomfoɔ! Mo mu hwan na ɔnsane ne nantwie anaa nʼafunumu na ɔnka no nkɔnom nsuo homeda?
16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, to be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
Adɛn enti na Abraham aseni yi a ɔbonsam afa no dommum mfeɛ dunwɔtwe ni no, ɛnsɛ sɛ mesa no yadeɛ homeda?”
17 And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
Ɔkaa saa no, wɔn a na wɔne nʼadwene nhyia no nyinaa ani wuiɛ. Nnipa no nso a na wɔwɔ hyiadan no mu nyinaa ani gyee nʼanwanwadeɛ ahodoɔ a ɔyɛeɛ no nyinaa ho.
18 Then said he, To what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I compare it?
Afei, Yesu hyɛɛ aseɛ kyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn Ahennie no ho asɛm, na ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Onyankopɔn Ahennie no te sɛn? Na ɛdeɛn na memfa nto ho nkyerɛkyerɛ aseɛ?
19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and became a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in its branches.
Onyankopɔn Ahennie no te sɛ onyina aba ketewa bi a obi dua wɔ nʼafuo mu na ɛnyini yɛɛ dutan kɛseɛ ma ewiem nnomaa kɔnwono wɔn mpirebuo wɔ so.”
20 And again he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God?
Ɔbisaa bio sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn bio na memfa ntoto ho nkyerɛ aseɛ?
21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Ɛte sɛ mmɔreka bi a burodotofoɔ de fotɔ mmɔre ma ɛtu.”
22 And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.
Ɛberɛ a Yesu rekɔ Yerusalem no, ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔ nkuro so ne nkuraa ase ansa na ɔreduru hɔ.
23 Then said one to him, Lord, are there few that are saved? And he said to them,
Ne nkyerɛkyerɛ no mu no, obi bisaa no sɛ, “Awurade, nnipa kakra bi na wɔbɛgye wɔn nkwa anaa?” Ɔbuaa no sɛ,
24 Strive to enter in at the narrow gate: for many, I say to you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
“Mompere nhyɛne ɛpono teateaa no mu, ɛfiri sɛ, nnipa pii bɛpere sɛ wɔbɛwura mu, nanso wɔrentumi.
25 When once the master of the house hath risen up, and hath shut the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not where ye are from:
Sɛ ɛba sɛ efiewura no ato ɛpono no mu a, mobɛba abɛgyina akyire abɔ mu, aka sɛ, ‘Owura, yɛsrɛ wo, bue yɛn.’ “Na ɔno nso abisa mo sɛ, ‘Mofiri he? Mennim mo?’
26 Then ye shall begin to say, We ate and drank in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
“Na mo nso moaka akyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Yɛne wo too nsa didii na wokyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔ yɛn mmorɔno so.’
27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not where ye are from; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
“Na efiewura no nso bɛbisa mo bio sɛ, ‘Mofiri he? Mennim mo. Momfiri mʼani so nkɔ, mo nnebɔneyɛfoɔ!’
28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.
“Na sɛ mohunu Abraham, Isak, Yakob ne nkɔmhyɛfoɔ no nyinaa sɛ wɔwɔ Onyankopɔn Ahennie no mu na montumi nkɔ hɔ bi a, mode mo nsa bɛgu mo ti atwa agyaadwoɔ.
29 And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
Nnipa firi apueeɛ ne atɔeɛ bɛhyia wɔ Onyankopɔn Ahennie no mu ato nsa adidi.
30 And, behold, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.
Na monkae sɛ akyikafoɔ bi wɔ hɔ a, wɔbɛdi ɛkan, na adikanfoɔ bi nso wɔ hɔ a, wɔbɛka akyi.”
31 The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying to him, Go away, and depart from here: for Herod will kill thee.
Saa ɛberɛ no ara mu Farisifoɔ bi baa Yesu nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Firi ha kɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, Herode rehwehwɛ wo akum wo.”
32 And he said to them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out demons, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monkɔka nkyerɛ sakraman no sɛ, ‘metu ahonhommɔne, na masa nyarewa ɛnnɛ ne ɔkyena na ne nnansa so no, mɛduru Yerusalem.’
33 Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet should perish out of Jerusalem.
Nanso, ɛsɛ sɛ menante ɛnnɛ ne ɔkyena ne nʼadekyeeɛ, na ɛtwa ara na ɛtwa sɛ odiyifoɔ bɛwu wɔ Yerusalem!
34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent to thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen gathereth her brood under her wings, and ye would not!
“Yerusalem, Yerusalem, wo a wokum adiyifoɔ na wosi wɔn a wɔsoma wɔn wo nkyɛn no aboɔ! Mpɛn ahe ni a mepɛɛ sɛ meboaboa wo mma ano sɛ akokɔbaatan boaboa ne mma ano ne ntaban ase, nanso moampene so.
35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate: and verily I say to you, Ye shall not see me, until the time shall come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
Na mo afie bɛdane afituo na morenhunu me kɔsi sɛ mobɛka sɛ, ‘Nhyira ne deɛ ɔnam Awurade din mu reba no!’”
