1 Kaesare Tiberio dii adeɛ ne mfeɛ dunum so na Onyankopɔn asɛm baa Sakaria ba Yohane so wɔ ɛserɛ so.
In the fiftenthe yeare of the raygne of Tiberius the Emperoure Pontius Pylate beinge leftenaut of Iurie and Herode beinge Tetrach of Galile and his brother Philip Tetrach in Iturea and in the region of Traconites and Lysanias the Tetrach of Abyline
2 Saa ɛberɛ no na Pilato yɛ amrado wɔ Yudea, na Herode di Galilea mansinihene; ne nua Filipo di Iturea ne Trakoniti mansini so; na Lisania di Abilene mansinihene, ɛnna Anas ne Kaiafa nso yɛ Yudafoɔ asɔfoɔ mpanin.
when Anna and Cayphas were the hye prestes: the worde of God came vnto Iohn ye sonne of zacharias in the wildernes.
3 Yohane kyinkyinii Asubɔnten Yordan ho nyinaa kyerɛkyerɛɛ nnipa sɛ, wɔmma wɔmmɔ wɔn asu nsakra mfiri wɔn bɔne ho, na wɔde wɔn bɔne akyɛ wɔn.
And he came in to all the coostes aboute Iordan preachynge the baptyme of repentaunce for the remission of synnes
4 Sɛdeɛ Odiyifoɔ Yesaia kaa sɛ, “Nne bi reteam wɔ ɛserɛ so sɛ, ‘Monsiesie ɛkwan mma Awurade; momma nʼatempɔn ntene.
at it is written in the boke of the sayinges of Esaias ye Prophet which sayeth: The voyce of a cryar in wyldernes prepare the waye of the Lorde make hys pathes strayght.
5 Bɔnhwa biara bɛyɛ ma. Bepɔ ne nkokoɔ nyinaa bɛkɔ fam; asase a ɛyɛ monkyi mmɔnka no bɛyɛ tamaa, na mmeaɛ a ɛyɛ kɔntɔnkye no ayɛ tata.
Every valley shalbe fylled and every moutayne and hyll shalbe brought lowe. And crocked thinges shalbe made streight: and the rough wayes shalbe made smoth:
6 Na nnipa nyinaa bɛhunu Onyankopɔn nkwagyeɛ.’”
and all flesshe shall se the saveour sent of God.
7 Yohane ka kyerɛɛ nkurɔfoɔ a wɔbaa hɔ sɛ ɔmmɔ wɔn asu no sɛ, “Awɔ mma! Hwan na ɔbɔɔ mo kɔkɔ sɛ monnwane mfiri abufuhyeɛ a ɛreba no ho?
Then sayde he to the people that were come to be baptysed of him: O generacion of vipers who hath taught you to flye from the wrath to come?
8 Monkɔbɔ ɔbra pa mfa nkyerɛ sɛ moasakyera ampa. Na monnhoahoa mo ho sɛ moyɛ Abraham asefoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn bɛtumi ama saa aboɔ yi adane nnipa ma wɔabɛyɛ Abraham asefoɔ.
Bringe forth due frutes of repentaunce and begynne not to saye in youre selves we have Abraham to oure father. For I saye vnto you: God is able of these stones to reyse vp chyldren vnto Abraham.
9 Onyankopɔn de nʼabonnua ato dua biara a ɛnso aba pa nhini ho sɛ ɔde bɛtwa na ɔde agu ogya mu, ahye no.”
Now also ys the axe leyd vnto the rote of the trees: so yt every tree which bringeth not forth good frute shalbe hewe doune and caste in to ye fyre.
10 Nnipakuo no bisaa no sɛ, “Na ɛnneɛ ɛdeɛn na yɛnyɛ?”
And the people axed him sayinge: What shall we do then?
11 Yohane buaa wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ wowɔ ntoma mmienu a, ma deɛ ɔnni bi no baako. Saa ara nso na sɛ wowɔ aduane a, ma deɛ ɔnni bi no bi.”
He answered and sayde vnto them: He that hath two coottes let him parte with him that hath none: and he that hath meate let him do lyke wyse.
12 Togyefoɔ a wɔbaa hɔ sɛ wɔmmɔ wɔn asu no nso bisaa sɛ, “Ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ, yɛnyɛ ɛdeɛn?”
Then came ther Publicans to be baptised and sayde vnto him: Master what shall we do?
13 Ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Monnnye mmoro deɛ wɔatwa ato hɔ sɛ monnye no.”
And he sayde vnto the: requyre no more then that which ys appoynted vnto you.
14 Asraafoɔ bi nso bisaa sɛ, “Yɛn nso yɛnyɛ ɛdeɛn?” Yohane buaa wɔn sɛ, “Mommmɔ apoo, monntoto obiara ano, momma mo akatua nsɔ mo ani!”
The soudyoures lyke wyse demaunded of hym sayinge: and what shall we do? And he sayde to them: Do violence to noo ma: nether trouble eny man wrongfully: but be content with youre wages.
15 Esiane sɛ saa ɛberɛ no na nnipa no nyinaa rehwɛ Agyenkwa no kwan enti, na wɔsusu sɛ Yohane ne Agyenkwa no.
As the people were in a doute and all men disputed in their hertes of Iohn whether he were very Christ:
16 Yei maa Yohane ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Me deɛ mede nsuo na ɛrebɔ mo asu. Nanso, obi di mʼakyi a ɔreba a, ɔwɔ tumi sene me na ne mpaboa mpo, mensɛ sɛ mekura. Ɔno deɛ, sɛ ɔba a, ɔde Honhom Kronkron ne ogya na ɛbɛbɔ mo asu.
Ihon answered and sayde to them all: I baptyse you wt water but a stronger then I cometh after me whose shue latchet I am not worthy to vnlouse: he will baptise you with the holy goost and with fyre:
17 Ɔno na sɛ ɔba a, ɔbɛhuhu mo so sɛ ɛmo, ayiyi mu aba pa no afiri ntɛtɛ no mu na ɔde aba pa no akɔsie na ɔde ogya a ɛnnum da ahye ntɛtɛ no.”
which hath his fanne in his hond and will pourge his floore and will gader the corne into his barne: but the chaffe wyll he bourne with fyre that never shalbe quenched.
18 Ɔnam afotuo ahodoɔ so kaa asɛmpa no kyerɛɛ wɔn.
And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people.
19 Yohane kaa Herode anim wɔ ne nua yere Herodia a ɔwaree no ne bɔne ahodoɔ a na ɔyɛ no ho.
Then Herode the Tetrach (when he was rebuked of him for Herodias his brother Philippes wyfe and for all the evyls which Herod had done)
20 Yei maa Herode de Yohane too afiase.
added this above all and leyd Iohn in preson.
21 Ɛberɛ a Yohane bɔɔ nkurɔfoɔ pii asu wieeɛ no, ɔbɔɔ Yesu nso asu. Ɔbɔɔ no asu wieeɛ a ɔrebɔ mpaeɛ no, ɔsoro bueɛ.
And yt fortuned as all the people receaved baptyme (and when Iesus was baptised and dyd praye) that heave was opened
22 Honhom Kronkron sianee honam mu te sɛ aborɔnoma baa Yesu so na nne bi firi ɔsoro kaa sɛ, “Wone me Dɔ Ba a wosɔ mʼani.”
and the holy goost came doune in a bodely shape lyke a dove vpo him and a voyce came fro heve sayinge: Thou arte my dere sonne in the do I delyte.
