Luka 6
1 Homeda bi a Yesu ne nʼasuafo no nam aburowfuw bi mu no asuafo no pempan aburow no bi huan, wee.
And it came to pass, on a Sabbath, that he was passing along through cornfields, and his disciples were plucking and eating the ears of corn, rubbing them with their hands.
2 Farisifo bi bisaa no se, “Adɛn na moyɛ ade a etia Homeda ho mmara a wɔahyɛ no?”
But, certain of the Pharisees, said—Why are ye doing what is not allowed on the Sabbath?
3 Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Monkenkan nea Ɔhene Dawid yɛɛ bere a ɔkɔm dee ɔne wɔn a wɔka ne ho no wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu ana?
And, making answer unto them, Jesus said—Have ye never read, even this, what David did when he hungered, he, and they who were with him—
4 Ɔkɔɔ asɔredan mu kɔfaa brodo a wɔde abɔ afɔre ama Onyankopɔn a mmara mma ho kwan sɛ obi di, gye asɔfo nko ara no, de bi maa wɔn a wɔka ne ho no nso dii.”
How he entered into the house of God, and, the presence-bread, receiving, did eat, and gave to them who were with him, which it is not allowable to eat, save alone, to the priests?
5 Yesu kae se, “Onipa Ba no ne Homeda no wura.”
And he was saying to them—The Son of Man is, Lord of the Sabbath.
6 Homeda foforo bi nso a Yesu rekyerɛkyerɛ wɔ asɔredan mu no, na ɔbarima bi a ne nsa nifa awu nso wɔ hɔ bi.
And it came to pass, on another Sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and was teaching, and there was a man there, and, his right hand, was withered.
7 Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo ne Farisifo no hwɛɛ Yesu komm sɛ ɔbɛsa onipa yi yare Homeda yi nso ana. Nea na wɔrehwehwɛ ara ne sɛ obebu mmara no so asa yare na wɔn nsa aka no akyere no.
Now the Scribes and the Pharisees were narrowly watching him, whether, on the Sabbath, he healeth, —that they might find whereof to accuse him.
8 Yesu huu wɔn adwene nanso ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no se, “Sɔre begyina anim ha, na obiara nhu wo.” Ɔbarima no sɔre begyinaa hɔ.
But, he, knew their reasonings, and said to the man who had the, withered, hand—Arise, and stand forward in the midst! And, arising, he stood forward.
9 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Merebisa mo. Dɛn na mmara no ma ho kwan sɛ yɛnyɛ no Homeda; sɛ yɛbɛyɛ papa anaa yɛbɛyɛ bɔne, sɛ yebegye obi nkwa anaasɛ yɛbɛma wawu?”
And Jesus said unto them—I ask you, whether it is allowed, on the Sabbath, to do good or to do harm, —life, to save, or, to destroy.
10 Yesu hwɛɛ wɔn nyinaa hyiae na ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no se, “Teɛ wo nsa.” Na ɔteɛɛ ne nsa no, emu yɛɛ den sɛ baako no.
And, looking round upon them all, he said unto him—Stretch forth thy hand! and, he, did so, and his hand was restored.
11 Nea Yesu yɛe yi hyɛɛ nnipa no abufuw yiye ma wofii ase bɔɔ ne ho pɔw.
But, they, were filled with folly, and began conversing one with another, as to, what they might do with Jesus.
12 Da bi a Yesu kɔɔ bepɔw bi so sɛ ɔrekɔbɔ mpae no ɔbɔɔ mpae anadwo mu no nyinaa
And it came to pass, in these days, that he went forth into the mountain to pray, and was spending the night in the prayer-house of God.
13 Ade kyee no ɔfrɛɛ nʼakyidifo no nyinaa baa ne nkyɛn na ɔpaw wɔn mu dumien. Saa dumien yi na ɔfrɛɛ wɔn asomafo.
And, when it became day, he called his disciples, and chose from them, twelve, whom also he named, Apostles, —
14 Wɔn din na edidi so yi: Simon, a ɔtoo ne din Petro; Andrea, Simon nua; Yakobo, Yohane, Filipo, Bartolomeo,
Simon, whom also he named Peter, and Andrew his brother; and James and John; and Philip and Bartholomew;
15 Mateo, Toma, Yakobo a ɔyɛ Alfeo ba; Simon, a wɔfrɛ no Selote;
and Matthew and Thomas; and James, son of Alphaeus, and Simon, who was called Zealot; and Judas, [son] of James,
16 Yuda a ɔyɛ Yakobo ba; ne Yuda Iskariot a oyii Yesu mae no.
and Judas Iscariot, who became betrayer; —
17 Yesu fii bepɔw no so sian baa fam maa nʼakyidifo bebree ne nnipakuw a wofi Yudea, Yerusalem ne mpoano nkurow Tiro ne Sidon mu no betwaa ne ho hyiae.
and, coming down with them, he stood upon a level place, also a great multitude of his disciples, —and a great throng of the people, from all Judaea and Jerusalem and the sea-coast of Tyre and Zidon, who had come to hearken unto him and to be healed from their diseases;
18 Wɔbae sɛ wɔrebetie no ama wasa wɔn nyarewa nso. Otuu ahonhommɔne bebree.
and, they who were molested by impure spirits, were being cured;
19 Obiara bɔɔ mmɔden sɛ ɔde ne nsa bɛka Yesu. Ayarefo a wɔde wɔn nsa kaa Yesu no nyinaa ho tɔɔ wɔn.
and, all the multitude, were seeking to touch him, because, power, from him, was coming forth, and healing all.
20 Afei ɔdan nʼani ka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafo no se, “Nhyira ne mo a moyɛ ahiafo, na mo na Onyankopɔn ahenni no yɛ mo dea!
And, he, lifting up his eyes towards his disciples, was saying: —Happy, ye destitute, for, yours, is the kingdom of God.
21 Nhyira ne mo a ɔkɔm de mo, na mo na wɔbɛma mo amee. Nhyira ne mo a mo werɛ ahow, na mo na wɔbɛma mo ani agye.
Happy, ye that hunger now, for ye shall be filled. Happy, ye that weep now, for ye shall laugh.
22 Nhyira ne mo a me din nti, nnipa tan mo, na wɔpa mo na wɔyaw mo, na wogu mo din ho fi.
Happy, are ye, whensoever men shall hate you, and whensoever they shall separate you, and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man:
23 “Sɛ ɛba saa a, momma mo ani nnye na munni ahurusi! Munni ahurusi, efisɛ mo akatua retwɛn mo wɔ ɔsoro. Na saa ara nso na wɔn agyanom yɛɛ tete adiyifo no.
be rejoiced in that day, and leap, for lo! your reward, is great in heaven; for, according to the same things, were their fathers doing unto the prophets.
24 “Na mo adefo de, munnue efisɛ nea ɛma mo ani gye no, mo nsa aka dedaw; eyi nti munni kyɛfa biara bio.
But alas! for you, ye wealthy, for ye are duly receiving you consolation.
25 Munnue, mo a moamee mprempren, na mo na ɔkɔm bɛde mo! Munnue, mo a moreserew mprempren, na mo na mubesi apini asu.
Alas! for you, ye who are filled full now, for ye shall hunger. Alas! ye that laugh now, for ye shall mourn and weep.
26 Munnue, mo a nnipa kamfo mo, efisɛ saa ara na wɔn nenanom kamfoo atoro adiyifo no.”
Alas! whensoever all men shall, speak well of you, for, according to the same things, were their fathers doing unto the false prophets.
27 “Mereka akyerɛ mo a moretie me no nyinaa se monnɔ mo atamfo; monyɛ wɔn a wɔtan mo no papa.
But, unto you, I say, who are hearkening: Be loving your enemies; be doing, good, unto them that hate you;
28 Munhyira wɔn a wɔdome mo; mommɔ mpae mma wɔn a wɔtan mo.
Be blessing them that curse you; be praying for them that wantonly insult you.
29 Sɛ obi bɔ wʼasom a, dan baako a aka no ma no. Sɛ obi pa wo ntama a, worɔw wʼatade ka ho.
To him who is smiting thee upon the one cheek, be offering, the other also; and, from him who is taking away thy mantle, thy tunic also, do not forbid:
30 Sɛ obi srɛ wo biribi a, fa ma no. Obi gye wʼade a, mmisa no bio.
To every one asking thee, give, and, from him that taketh away thy possessions, ask them not back.
31 Na nea mopɛ sɛ nnipa nyɛ mo no, mo nso monyɛ wɔn saa ara.
And, according as ye desire that men be doing unto you, be ye doing unto them, in like manner.
32 “Na sɛ modɔ wɔn a wɔdɔ mo no nko ara a, mfaso bɛn na mubenya? ‘Nnebɔneyɛfo’ nso dɔ wɔn a wɔdɔ wɔn no.
And, if ye love them that love you, what sort of thanks are there for you? for, even sinners, love, such as love them.
33 Na sɛ moyɛ wɔn a wɔyɛ mo papa no nko ara yiye a, mfaso bɛn na mubenya? Nnebɔneyɛfo mpo yɛ wɔn a wɔyɛ wɔn papa no nso yiye.
[For], if ye even do good unto them that do good unto you, what sort of thanks are there for you? Even sinners, the same, are doing.
34 Na sɛ mobɔ wɔn a mususuw sɛ wobetumi atua no nko ara bosea a, papa bɛn na moayɛ? Nnebɔneyɛfo nso bobɔbobɔ wɔn ho wɔn ho bosea, a wɔhwɛ sɛ wɔn nsa bɛka wɔn sika bio.
And, if ye lend to them from whom ye are hoping to receive, what sort of thanks are there for you? Even sinners, unto sinners, do lend, that they may receive back, as much.
35 Monnɔ mo atamfo. Monyɛ wɔn papa. Momma wɔn nea ehia wɔn a, mo ani nni akyi bio. Na sɛ moyɛ eyinom a mo akatua bɛyɛ kɛse wɔ ɔsoro na moayɛ Onyankopɔn mma; efisɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ nnebɔneyɛfo adɔe, na ɔdom bonniayɛfo nso.
But love your enemies, and do good and lend, hoping for, nothing, back; and your reward shall be, great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High, —for, he, is, gracious, unto the ungrateful and wicked.
36 Monyɛ mmɔborɔhunufo sɛnea mo Agya a ɔwɔ ɔsoro no yɛ mmɔborɔhunufo no.
Become ye compassionate, according as, your Father, is, compassionate;
37 “Mummmu ntɛn, na wɔammu mo ntɛn; mummmu fɔ, na wɔammu mo fɔ; momfa nkyɛ, na wɔde akyɛ mo.
And do not judge, and in nowise shall ye be judged; and do not condemn, and in nowise shall ye be condemned; release, and ye shall be released;
38 Sɛ moma a, wɔbɛhyɛ mo anan mu. Nea mode ma no, wɔde susudua a wɔahyɛ no ma, amia so ama abu so na ebesusuw ama mo. Susudua a mode besusuw ama no, ɛno ara na wɔde besusuw ama mo.”
Give, and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will they give into your lap; for, with what measure ye mete, shall it be measured back unto you.
39 Yesu nam mmebu so kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn bio se, “Onifuraefo betumi akyerɛ onifuraefo kwan ama ayɛ yiye ana? Sɛ ɛba saa a, wɔn baanu nyinaa bɛtɔ amoa mu.
He spake, moreover, a parable also, unto them: Can, the blind, guide, the blind? will not, both, fall into, a ditch?
40 Osuani nsen ne wura. Nanso sɛ ɔyere ne ho sua nea wɔrekyerɛ no no yiye a ɔbɛsɛ ne wura no.
A disciple is not above the teacher; but, when trained, every one shall be as his teacher.
41 “Adɛn nti na wohwɛ dua ntɛtɛ a ɛda wo nua ani so, bere a mpuran a ɛda wo de so no mfa wo ho?
But why beholdest thou the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, while, the beam that is in thine own eye, thou dost not consider?
42 Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na woatumi aka akyerɛ wo nua se, ‘Ma minhuw dua ntɛtɛ a ɛda wʼani so no mma wo,’ wɔ bere a mpuran a ɛda wʼani so no mfa wo ho. Nyaatwom, di kan yi mpuran a ɛda wʼani so no ansa na woatumi ahuw ntɛtɛ a ɛda wo nua ani so no ama no.
How canst thou say to thy brother—Brother! let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, —thyself, the beam in thine own eye, not beholding? Hypocrite! cast out, first, the beam out of thine own eye, and, then, shalt thou see clearly, to cast out, the mote that is in the eye of thy brother.
43 “Dua pa nsow aba bɔne, na dua bɔne nso nsow aba pa.
For a good tree doth not produce worthless fruit, neither again doth, a worthless tree, produce good fruit.
44 Dua biara aba na wɔnam so hu dua ko a ɛyɛ. Worentumi ntew borɔdɔma mfi nware so.
For, every tree, by its own fruit, becometh known. For not, of thorns, do they gather figs, neither, of a bramble-bush, do they gather, a bunch of grapes.
45 Onipa pa fi nnepa a ɛwɔ ne koma mu yɛ ade pa. Saa ara nso na onipa bɔne nso fi ne nnebɔne a ɛwɔ ne koma mu yɛ ade bɔne. Nea ahyɛ onipa koma ma no, na epue fi nʼano.
The good man, out of the good treasure of the heart, bringeth forth that which is good; and, the wicked man, out of the wicked heart, bringeth forth that which is wicked; for, out of an overflowing of heart, speaketh, his mouth.
46 “Adɛn nti na mofrɛ me ‘Awurade,’ nanso munni mʼasɛm so?
And why call ye me, Lord! Lord! and not do the things that I say?
47 Merekyerɛ mo sɛnea onipa biara a ɔba me nkyɛn, na otie mʼasɛm di so no te.
Every one coming unto me, and hearkening unto my words, and doing them, I will suggest to you, whom he is like:
48 Ɔte sɛ obi a na ɔresi dan na ɔtoo ne dan no fapem ma esii ɔbotan so. Na osu tɔ maa nsu no yiri bɛbɔ faa ɔdan no ase nanso ammu, efisɛ osi sii ɔbotan so.
He is like unto a man building a house, who digged, and deepened, and laid a foundation upon the rock, —and, a flood, coming, the stream burst against that house, and was not strong enough to shake it, because it had been, well, built.
49 Na nea ɔte mʼasɛm na onni so no te sɛ obi a ɔresi dan, na osii dan no sii nwea so, na osu tɔ maa nsu no yiri bɛbɔ faa ase ma edwiriw sɛee pasaa.”
But, he that hath heard and not done, is like unto a man having built a house upon the earth, without a foundation, —against which the stream burst, and, straightway, it fell in; and it came to pass, that, the crash of that house, was, great.
