< Luke 8 >

1 And it came to pass thereafter, that he was going through every city and village, preaching and proclaiming good news of the reign of God, and the twelve [are] with him,
Eyi akyi no, Yesu ne nʼasuafo dumien no kyinkyinii Galilea nkurow ne nkuraa bi ase kaa Onyankopɔn ahenni no ho asɛm a,
2 and certain women, who were healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth,
na nnipa a wodi nʼakyi no bi ne Maria Magdalene a otuu ahonhommɔne ason fii ne mu no
3 and Joanna wife of Chuza, steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many others, who were ministering to him from their substance.
ne Yohana a ɔyɛ Kusa, Herode fi sohwɛfo panyin yere, ne Susana. Saa mmea yi ne afoforo bi na wofi wɔn ahonya mu hwɛɛ Yesu ne nʼasuafo.
4 And a great multitude having gathered, and those who from city and city were coming unto him, he spake by a simile:
Da bi a nnipa bebree bi fi nkurow nkurow so baa ne nkyɛn no, ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔn abebu mu se,
5 'The sower went forth to sow his seed, and in his sowing some indeed fell beside the way, and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the heaven did devour it.
“Da bi, okuafo bi kɔɔ nʼafum koguu aba. Ogui no, aba no bi koguu ɔkwan mu maa nnipa tiatiaa so na nnomaa nso bɛsosɔwee.
6 'And other fell upon the rock, and having sprung up, it did wither, through not having moisture.
Ebi nso koguu ɔbotan so, enti efifii no, ankyɛ na ne nyinaa hyewee, efisɛ annya nsu.
7 'And other fell amidst the thorns, and the thorns having sprung up with it, did choke it.
Aba no bi nso koguu nsɔe mu. Efifii no, nsɔe no kyekyeree no na ewui.
8 'And other fell upon the good ground, and having sprung up, it made fruit an hundred fold.' These things saying, he was calling, 'He having ears to hear — let him hear.'
Ebi nso koguu asase pa mu, enyinii, sow aba mmɔho ɔha.” Na ɔkaa eyi no, ɔka kaa ho se, “Nea ɔwɔ aso a obetie no, ontie.”
9 And his disciples were questioning him, saying, 'What may this simile be?'
Na nʼasuafo no bisaa no saa bɛ no ase no,
10 And he said, 'To you it hath been given to know the secrets of the reign of God, and to the rest in similes; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
obuaa wɔn se, “Mo de, wɔde Onyankopɔn Ahenni ho ahintasɛm ama mo, na afoforo de, wɔkasa kyerɛ wɔn mmebu mu, “‘sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔbɛhwɛ, nanso wɔrenhu na wɔbɛte, nanso wɔrente ase.’
11 'And this is the simile: The seed is the word of God,
“Afei bɛ no nkyerɛase ni. Aba no ne Onyankopɔn asɛm.
12 and those beside the way are those hearing, then cometh the Devil, and taketh up the word from their heart, lest having believed, they may be saved.
Aba a eguu ɔkwan mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔte Onyankopɔn asɛm no na ɔbonsam behwim fi wɔn koma mu, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔrennye nni na wɔrennya nkwagye.
13 'And those upon the rock: They who, when they may hear, with joy do receive the word, and these have no root, who for a time believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Aba a eguu ɔbotan so no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔte asɛm no na wɔde anigye so mu, nanso ɛntena wɔn mu. Na esiane wɔn gyidi a esua nti, ɛnkyɛ na asɛm no awu. Na sɛ sɔhwɛ ba wɔn so a, wɔpa abaw.
14 'And that which fell to the thorns: These are they who have heard, and going forth, through anxieties, and riches, and pleasures of life, are choked, and bear not to completion.
Aba a eguu nsɔe mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔte Onyankopɔn asɛm, na wodi so, nanso asetena mu haw ne abɛbrɛsɛ, ahonya ne wiase afɛfɛde nti, asɛm no ntumi nyɛ wɔn mu adwuma sɛnea ɛsɛ.
15 'And that in the good ground: These are they, who in an upright and good heart, having heard the word, do retain [it], and bear fruit in continuance.
Aba a eguu asase pa mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔde koma pa tie asɛmpa no, na wodi so, gyina pintinn de abrabɔ pa di ho adanse.
16 'And no one having lighted a lamp doth cover it with a vessel, or under a couch doth put [it]; but upon a lamp-stand he doth put [it], that those coming in may see the light,
“Obi nsɔ kanea na ɔmfa kɛntɛn mmutuw so, anaa ɔmfa nhyɛ mpa ase na mmom, ɔde si kaneadua so na ahyerɛn ama wɔn a wɔba mu no.
17 for nothing is secret, that shall not become manifest, nor hid, that shall not be known, and become manifest.
Nea ahintaw no bɛda adi, na nea ɛwɔ kokoa mu no nso ada gua.
18 'See, therefore, how ye hear, for whoever may have, there shall be given to him, and whoever may not have, also what he seemeth to have, shall be taken from him.'
Enti nea mutie no, muntie no yiye. Obiara a ɔwɔ no wɔbɛma no pii aka ho, na nea onni ahe bi no, nea osusuw sɛ ɛyɛ ne de no mpo, wobegye afi ne nsam.”
19 And there came unto him his mother and brethren, and they were not able to get to him because of the multitude,
Da bi, Yesu na ne ne nuanom pɛɛ sɛ wɔne no kasa, nanso esiane nnipakuw a na wɔatwa ne ho ahyia no nti, wɔantumi ne no ankasa.
20 and it was told him, saying, 'Thy mother and thy brethren do stand without, wishing to see thee;'
Obi kɔka kyerɛɛ Yesu se ne na ne ne nuanom gyina nkyɛn hɔ baabi rehwehwɛ no.
21 and he answering said unto them, 'My mother and my brethren! they are those who the word of God are hearing, and doing.'
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Me na ne me nuanom ne wɔn a wotie Onyankopɔn asɛm na wodi so.”
22 And it came to pass, on one of the days, that he himself went into a boat with his disciples, and he said unto them, 'We may go over to the other side of the lake;' and they set forth,
Da bi a Yesu ne nʼasuafo te ɔkorow mu no, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Momma yentwa nkɔ asuogya nohɔ.” Wosii mu a wɔrekɔ no,
23 and as they are sailing he fell deeply asleep, and there came down a storm of wind to the lake, and they were filling, and were in peril.
Yesu dae. Saa bere no ara mu na ahum a ano yɛ den bi bɔ maa nsu bɛtaa ɔkorow no mu maa ɔkorow no yɛɛ sɛ ɛremem. Eyi maa asuafo no koma tuu yiye.
24 And having come near, they awoke him, saying, 'Master, master, we perish;' and he, having arisen, rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there came a calm,
Asuafo no de hu ne nteɛteɛmu nyan no se, “Awurade, Awurade, yɛremem!” Amono mu hɔ ara, Yesu sɔre teɛteɛɛ ahum a ano yɛ den ne asorɔkye no ma ɛyɛɛ dinn.
25 and he said to them, 'Where is your faith?' and they being afraid did wonder, saying unto one another, 'Who, then, is this, that even the winds he doth command, and the water, and they obey him?'
Afei obisaa wɔn se, “Adɛn na munni gyidi?” Wɔn nyinaa suroe, de ahodwiriw bisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se. “Onipa bɛn ni a mframa a ano yɛ den ne asorɔkye mpo tie no yi?”
26 And they sailed down to the region of the Gadarenes, that is over-against Galilee,
Yesu ne nʼasuafo no twaa po no beduu Gerasefo asase a ɛne Galilea di nhwɛanim no so.
27 and he having gone forth upon the land, there met him a certain man, out of the city, who had demons for a long time, and with a garment was not clothed, and in a house was not abiding, but in the tombs,
Yesu fii ɔkorow no mu sii fam pɛ na ɔbarima bi a ahonhommɔne ahyɛ no ma akyɛ a ɔda adagyaw na ɔnte fie, na mmom ɔte amusiei a aboda mu na ɔdeda no behyiaa no.
28 and having seen Jesus, and having cried out, he fell before him, and with a loud voice, said, 'What — to me and to thee, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I beseech thee, mayest thou not afflict me!'
Ohuu Yesu no, ɔteɛɛ mu, kotow nʼanan ase san teɛteɛɛ mu se, “Yesu, Ɔsorosoro Nyankopɔn Ba, dɛn na wo ne me wɔ yɛ? Mesrɛ wo, nyɛ me ayayade biara.”
29 For he commanded the unclean spirit to come forth from the man, for many times it had caught him, and he was being bound with chains and fetters — guarded, and breaking asunder the bonds he was driven by the demons to the deserts.
Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi, efisɛ na Yesu ateɛteɛ ahonhommɔne no sɛ womfi ne mu. Saa ahonhommɔne yi taa ka no na sɛ wɔde hama kyekyere ne nsa ne nʼanan mpo a, otumi tetew mu ma ahonhommɔne no pam no kɔ wuram.
30 And Jesus questioned him, saying, 'What is thy name?' and he said, 'Legion,' (because many demons were entered into him, )
Yesu bisaa no se, “Wo din de dɛn?” Obuaa no se, “Dɔm.” Efisɛ na ahonhommɔne ahyɛ no ma.
31 and he was calling on him, that he may not command them to go away to the abyss, (Abyssos g12)
Ahohommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔnnhyɛ wɔn mma wonnkogu amanehunu bon no mu. (Abyssos g12)
32 and there was there a herd of many swine feeding in the mountain, and they were calling on him, that he might suffer them to enter into these, and he suffered them,
Saa bere no na mprako bi redidi wɔ bepɔw no nkyɛn mu baabi. Ahohommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔmma wɔn ho kwan na wonkowura mprako no mu. Na ɔmaa wɔn ho kwan.
33 and the demons having gone forth from the man, did enter into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep to the lake, and were choked.
Enti ahonhommɔne no fii ɔbarima no mu kowuraa mprako no mu ma wɔbɔɔ kirididi, sian bepɔw no koguu ɔtare no mu wuwui.
34 And those feeding [them], having seen what was come to pass, fled, and having gone, told [it] to the city, and to the fields;
Wɔn a wɔhwɛ mprako no so no huu nea asi no, wɔde hu ne ahopopo tutuu mmirika kɔbɔɔ amanneɛ wɔ kurom maa asɛm no trɛw wɔ mpɔtam hɔ nyinaa.
35 and they came forth to see what was come to pass, and they came unto Jesus, and found the man sitting, out of whom the demons had gone forth, clothed, and right-minded, at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid;
Nnipa a wɔtee asɛm no bɔɔ twi kɔhwɛɛ nea asi. Woduu nea Yesu wɔ no, wohuu ɔbarima no sɛ ne ho atɔ no a ofura ntama te Yesu nkyɛn. Nnipa no nyinaa ho dwiriw wɔn.
36 and those also having seen [it], told them how the demoniac was saved.
Na wɔn a wohuu ɔkwan a Yesu faa so saa ɔbarima no ɔyare no bɔɔ wɔn a wɔbaa hɔ no amanneɛ.
37 And the whole multitude of the region of the Gadarenes round about asked him to go away from them, because with great fear they were pressed, and he having entered into the boat, did turn back.
Ehu hyɛɛ Gerasefo a na wɔahyia wɔ hɔ no nyinaa ma, ma wɔsrɛɛ Yesu sɛ omfi wɔn nkyɛn hɔ nkɔ. Eyi nti, Yesu kɔtenaa ɔkorow no mu san twa kɔɔ asuogya nohɔ.
38 And the man from whom the demons had gone forth was beseeching of him to be with him, and Jesus sent him away, saying,
Ansa na Yesu rebefi hɔ no, ɔbarima a otuu ahonhommɔne fii ne mu no srɛɛ no sɛ ɔne no bɛkɔ. Nanso Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se,
39 'Turn back to thy house, and tell how great things God did to thee;' and he went away through all the city proclaiming how great things Jesus did to him.
“Kɔ na kodi nea Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama wo no ho adanse kyerɛ wo manfo.” Ɔbarima no fii hɔ kodii anwonwade a Yesu ayɛ ama no no ho adanse kyerɛɛ kurom hɔfo nyinaa.
40 And it came to pass, in the turning back of Jesus, the multitude received him, for they were all looking for him,
Yesu duu asuogya hɔ no, nnipakuw no de anigye hyiaa no kwan, efisɛ na wɔatwɛn no abrɛ.
41 and lo, there came a man, whose name [is] Jairus, and he was a chief of the synagogue, and having fallen at the feet of Jesus, was calling on him to come to his house;
Ɔbarima bi a wɔfrɛ no Yairo a na ɔyɛ Yudafo hyiadan mu panyin baa ne nkyɛn bebuu no nkotodwe, srɛɛ no sɛ, ɔne no nkɔ ne fi
42 because he had an only daughter about twelve years [old], and she was dying. And in his going away, the multitudes were thronging him,
na ne babea koro a wadi bɛyɛ mfe dumien reyɛ awu. Bere a Yesu rekɔ no na nnipakuw no kyere ne so.
43 and a woman, having an issue of blood for twelve years, who, having spent on physicians all her living, was not able to be healed by any,
Ɔbea bi a mogya atu no mfirihyia dumien a obiara ntumi nsa no yare no,
44 having come near behind, touched the fringe of his garment, and presently the issue of her blood stood.
fii Yesu akyi soo nʼatade ano. Amono mu hɔ ara na mogya a etu no no twae.
45 And Jesus said, 'Who [is] it that touched me?' and all denying, Peter and those with him said, 'Master, the multitudes press thee, and throng [thee], and thou dost say, Who [is] it that touched me!'
Yesu bisae se, “Hena na osoo mʼatade ano no no?” Obiara buae se ɛnyɛ ɔno. Eyi maa Petro kae se, “Awurade, na sɛ nnipa no akyere wo so.”
46 And Jesus said, 'Some one did touch me, for I knew power having gone forth from me.'
Yesu buaa no se, “Dabi, obi aso mʼatade mu efisɛ mete nka sɛ tumi bi afi me mu.”
47 And the woman, having seen that she was not hid, trembling, came, and having fallen before him, for what cause she touched him declared to him before all the people, and how she was healed presently;
Ɔbea no huu sɛ ohintaw a ɛrenyɛ ye nti, ɔde hu ne ahopopo bebuu Yesu nkotodwe wɔ nnipa no nyinaa anim, kyerɛɛ no nea enti a osoo ne mu ne sɛnea ne ho atɔ no no.
48 and he said to her, 'Take courage, daughter, thy faith hath saved thee, be going on to peace.'
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɔbabea, wo gyidi ama wo ho atɔ wo. Fa asomdwoe kɔ.”
49 While he is yet speaking, there doth come a certain one from the chief of the synagogue's [house], saying to him — 'Thy daughter hath died, harass not the Teacher;'
Yesu gu so rekasa no, obi fi Yairo fi bɛka kyerɛɛ Yairo se, “Wo babea no anya awu enti nhaw Kyerɛkyerɛfo no bio.”
50 and Jesus having heard, answered him, saying, 'Be not afraid, only believe, and she shall be saved.'
Yesu tee asɛm no osee Yairo se, “Nsuro, gye di, na wo babea no benyan anya nkwa.”
51 And having come to the house, he suffered no one to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father of the child, and the mother;
Oduu fie hɔ no, wamma obiara anka ne ho ankɔ ɔdan a abofra no da mu no mu gye Petro, Yohane, Yakobo ne abofra no awofo nko ara.
52 and they were all weeping, and beating themselves for her, and he said, 'Weep not, she did not die, but doth sleep;
Na nnipa a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa resu di awerɛhow. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Munnsu, onwui na wada.”
53 and they were deriding him, knowing that she did die;
Wɔserew no dii ne ho fɛw, efisɛ na wɔn de, wonim pefee sɛ wawu.
54 and he having put all forth without, and having taken hold of her hand, called, saying, 'Child, arise;'
Yesu soo ne nsa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Me ba, sɔre!”
55 and her spirit came back, and she arose presently, and he directed that there be given to her to eat;
Amono mu hɔ ara, ɔsɔree na Yesu kae se wɔmma no biribi nni.
56 and her parents were amazed, but he charged them to say to no one what was come to pass.
Nʼawofo no ho dwiriw wɔn yiye nanso Yesu bɔɔ wɔn ano se, wɔnnka nea asi no nkyerɛ obiara.
