Mark 1
1 The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ the Son of God.
Asɛmpa a ɛfa Yesu Kristo, Onyankopɔn Ba no ho no mfiase ni.
2 As it is written in Isaiah the Prophet, "See, I am sending My messenger before Thee, Who will prepare Thy way";
Wɔakyerɛw wɔ Odiyifo Yesaia nhoma no mu se, “Mɛsoma me bɔfo adi wʼanim kan. Ɔno na obesiesie ɔkwan ama wo.”
3 "The voice of one crying aloud: 'In the Desert prepare a road for the Lord: Make His highways straight.'"
“Obi nne reteɛ mu wɔ sare so, ‘Munsiesie ɔkwan mma Awurade, mommɔ akwan a ɛteɛ mma no.’”
4 So John the Baptizer came, and was in the Desert proclaiming a baptism of the penitent for forgiveness of sins.
Enti Yohane ba bɛbɔɔ asu wɔ sare so, ɔkaa adwensakra asubɔ a ɛma bɔnefakyɛ ho asɛm.
5 There went out to him people of all classes from Judaea, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem of all ranks, and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, making open confession of their sins.
Nnipa fifi Yerusalem ne Yudea nkurow nyinaa so kohuu Yohane tiee no. Na wɔkaa wɔn bɔne kyerɛɛ no no, ɔbɔɔ wɔn asu wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan mu.
6 As for John, his garment was of camel's hair, and he wore a loincloth of leather; and his food was locusts and wild honey.
Na Yohane hyɛ atade a wɔde yoma nwi na apam a aboa nhoma abɔso nso bɔ mu. Na nʼaduan yɛ mmoadabi ne ɛwo.
7 His announcement was, "There is One coming after me mightier than I--One whose sandal-strap I am unworthy to stoop down and unfasten.
Ɔrekyerɛkyerɛ no, ɔkae se, “Ɛrenkyɛ koraa, obi bɛba a ɔwɔ tumi sen me, a ne mpaboa hama mpo, mensɛ sɛ mekotow na masan.
8 I have baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
Me de, mede nsu na ɛbɔ mo asu, na ɔno de, ɔde Honhom Kronkron na ɛbɛbɔ mo asu!”
9 At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan;
Saa bere no mu na Yesu fi Nasaret a ɛwɔ Galileaman mu ba maa Yohane bɔɔ no asu wɔ asubɔnten Yordan mu.
10 and immediately on His coming up out of the water He saw an opening in the sky, and the Spirit like a dove coming down to Him;
Yesu fii asu no mu sii konkɔn so ara pɛ, ohuu sɛ ɔsoro abue, na Honhom Kronkron resian sɛ aborɔnoma aba ne so.
11 and a voice came from the sky, saying, "Thou art My Son dearly loved: in Thee is My delight."
Na nne bi fi ɔsoro kae se, “Wone me Dɔba a wosɔ mʼani.”
12 At once the Spirit impelled Him to go out into the Desert,
Ɛhɔ ara, Honhom Kronkron de Yesu kɔɔ sare so.
13 where He remained for forty days, tempted by Satan; and He was among the wild beasts, but the angels waited upon Him.
Ɔtenaa hɔ adaduanan a na wuram mmoa na ɛka ne ho. Ɛhɔ na ɔbonsam sɔɔ no hwɛe. Akyiri no, abɔfo ba bɛsom no.
14 Then, after John had been thrown into prison, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming God's Good News.
Ɔhene Herode kyeree Yohane akyi no, Yesu kɔɔ Galilea kɔkaa asɛmpa no wɔ hɔ.
15 "The time has fully come," He said, "and the Kingdom of God is close at hand: repent, and believe this Good News.
Ɔkae se, “Bere no awie du! Onyankopɔn ahenni no abɛn. Monsakra mo adwene na munnye asɛmpa no nni!”
16 One day, passing along the shore of the Lake of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, Simon's brother, throwing their nets in the Lake; for they were fisherman.
Da bi a Yesu nam Galilea mpoano no, ohuu Simon ne ne nua Andrea sɛ wɔregu asau.
17 "Come and follow me," said Jesus, "and I will make you fishers for men."
Yesu frɛɛ wɔn se, “Mummedi mʼakyi! Na mɛma mo ayɛ nnipayifo.”
18 At once they left their nets and followed Him.
Ɛhɔ ara, wogyaw wɔn asau no guu hɔ kodii nʼakyi.
19 Going on a little further He saw James the son of Zabdi and his brother John: they also were in the boat mending the nets, and He immediately called them.
Ɔkɔɔ nʼanim kakra no, ohuu Sebedeo mma baanu a wɔfrɛ ɔbaako Yohane, na ɔbaako nso de Yakobo, sɛ wɔte ɔkorow mu reyɛ wɔn asau ho adwuma.
20 They therefore left their father Zabdi in the boat with the hired men, and went and followed Him.
Ɔfrɛɛ wɔn nso se wommedi nʼakyi. Ntɛm ara na wogyaw wɔn agya Sebedeo ne nʼapaafo hɔ wɔ ɔkorow no mu bedii nʼakyi.
21 So they came to Capernaum, and on the next Sabbath He went to the synagogue and began to teach.
Yesu ne nʼakyidifo yi beduu Kapernaum. Na Homeda duu no, ɔkɔɔ asɔredan mu kɔkaa asɛmpa no.
22 The people listened with amazement to His teaching--for there was authority about it: it was very different from that of the Scribes--
Nnipa no tee asɛm no maa wɔn ho dwiriw wɔn, efisɛ ɔkasaa te sɛ obi a ɔwɔ tumi, na mmom wankasa sɛ Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo no.
23 when all at once, there in their synagogue, a man under the power of a foul spirit screamed out:
Amono mu hɔ ara na ɔbarima bi a ɔwɔ wɔn hyiadan no mu hɔ a ɔwɔ honhommɔne teɛɛ mu se,
24 "What have you to do with us, Jesus the Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are--God's Holy One."
“Dɛn na wo Nasareni Yesu ne yɛn wɔ yɛ? Woaba sɛ worebɛsɛe yɛn ana? Minim wo sɛ wone Onyankopɔn Ba Kronkron no!”
25 But Jesus reprimanded him, saying, "Silence! come out of him."
Yesu teɛteɛɛ honhommɔne no se, “Mua wʼano! Fi ne mu kɔ!”
26 So the foul spirit, after throwing the man into convulsions, came out of him with a loud cry.
Honhommɔne no wosow saa ɔbarima no na ɔteɛteɛɛ mu dennen maa ne tu kɔe.
27 And all were amazed and awe-struck, so they began to ask one another, "What does this mean? Here is a new sort of teaching--and a tone of authority! And even to foul spirits he issues orders and they obey him!"
Nnipa no nyinaa ho dwiriw wɔn ma wobisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se. “Nkyerɛkyerɛ foforo bɛn ni? Ahonhommɔne mpo tie ne nne!”
28 And His fame spread at once everywhere in all that part of Galilee.
Saa anwonwade a ɔyɛe yi ho nsɛm trɛw faa Galileaman mu nyinaa.
29 Then on leaving the synagogue they came at once, with James and John, to the house of Simon and Andrew.
Wofii hyiadan no mu no, wɔne Yakobo ne Yohane kɔɔ Simon ne Andrea fi.
30 Now Simon's mother-in-law was ill in bed with a fever, and without delay they informed Him about her.
Na Simon asebea da mpa so a atiridii akyere no, na wɔkaa ne ho asɛm kyerɛɛ Yesu.
31 So He went to her, and taking her hand He raised her to her feet: the fever left her, and she began to wait upon them.
Yesu kɔɔ faako a ɔda hɔ kosoo ne nsa ma ɔsɔre tenaa ase. Ɛhɔ ara na atiridii no tu fii ne so ma ofii ase twɛn wɔn.
32 When it was evening, after sunset people came bringing Him all who were sick and the demoniacs;
Eduu anwummere no, nnipa no de ayarefo ne wɔn a wɔwɔ ahonhommɔne brɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔnsa wɔn yare.
33 and the whole town was assembled at the door.
Kurow mu no nyinaa bɛboaa wɔn ho ano wɔ ofi no abobow ano,
34 Then He cured numbers of people who were ill with various diseases, and He drove out many demons; not allowing the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.
na Yesu saa ayarefo bebree yare. Otuu ahonhommɔne bebree nso. Nanso, wamma ahonhommɔne no ankasa, efisɛ, na wonim no.
35 In the morning He rose early, while it was still quite dark, and leaving the house He went away to a solitary place and there prayed.
Ahemadakye a na anim ntetewee no, Yesu sɔre fii fie hɔ kɔɔ baabi a ɛhɔ yɛ dinn, kɔbɔɔ mpae wɔ hɔ.
36 And Simon and the others searched everywhere for Him.
Simon ne wɔn a wɔka ne ho fii adi kɔhwehwɛɛ no,
37 When they found Him they said, "Every one is looking for you."
na wohuu no no, wɔteɛɛ mu kae se, “Nnipa bebree rehwehwɛ wo!”
38 "Let us go elsewhere, to the neighbouring country towns," He replied, "that I may proclaim my Message there also; because for that purpose I came from God."
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ nkurow a aka no so, na mekɔka mʼasɛm kyerɛ wɔn, efisɛ, ɛno nti na mebae.”
39 And He went through all Galilee, preaching in the synagogues and expelling the demons.
Enti, ɔkɔɔ Galileaman mu baabiara kɔkaa asɛmpa no wɔ asɔredan mu, tuu ahonhommɔne bebree nso.
40 One day there came a leper to Jesus entreating Him, and pleading on his knees. "If you are willing," he said, "you are able to cleanse me."
Ɔkwatani bi bɛkotow no srɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ ɛyɛ wo pɛ a, wubetumi ama me ho afi.”
41 Moved with pity Jesus reached out His hand and touched him. "I am willing," He said; "be cleansed."
Yesu huu ɔkwatani no mmɔbɔ, enti ɔde ne nsa kaa no kae se, “Mepɛ! Wo ho mfi!”
42 The leprosy at once left him, and he was cleansed.
Amono mu hɔ ara, ne ho fi maa ne ho tɔɔ no!
43 Jesus at once sent him away, strictly charging him,
Yesu bɔɔ nʼano denneennen se,
44 and saying, "Be careful not to tell any one, but go and show yourself to the Priest, and for your purification present the offerings that Moses appointed as evidence for them."
“Nka saa asɛm yi nkyerɛ obiara, na mmom fa wo ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfo. Sɛ worekɔ a fa wʼafɔrebɔde a Mose ahyɛ sɛ akwatafo a wɔasa wɔn yare mfa nka wɔn ho nkɔ no ka wo ho kɔ sɛnea ɛbɛma obiara ahu sɛ wo ho atɔ wo.”
45 But the man, when he went out, began to tell every one and to publish the matter abroad, so that it was no longer possible for Jesus to go openly into any town; but He had to remain outside in unfrequented places, where people came to Him from all parts.
Nanso ɔrekɔ no nyinaa, na ɔde nteɛteɛmu rebɔ nʼayaresa no ho dawuru. Esiane eyi nti sɛ Yesu kɔ baabiara a, nnipadɔm betwa ne ho hyia. Ɛno nti na baabiara a ɔbɛkɔ no onnyi ne ho adi. Enti ɔtenaa sare so hɔ maa nnipa bebree baa ne nkyɛn.
