< John 21 >

1 After these things Jesus manifested himself again to his disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And he revealed himself this way.
Akyire no, Yesu yii ne ho adi bio wɔ Tiberia Po ho kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no mu bi. Ɛkwan a ɔfaa so yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ wɔn no nie:
2 There were together, Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other men of his disciples.
Saa ɛberɛ no, na Simon Petro, ne Toma (a wɔfrɛ no Ata), ne Natanael a ɔfiri Kana a ɛwɔ Galilea ne Sebedeo mma ne Yesu asuafoɔ no mu baanu na na wɔwɔ ɔtadeɛ no ho.
3 Simon Peter says to them, I am going to harvest fish. They say to him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and straightaway entered into the boat. And in that night they caught nothing.
Wɔwɔ hɔ no, Petro ka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wɔaka no sɛ, “Merekɔyi nam.” Wɔn a na wɔka ne ho no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne wo bɛkɔ.” Wɔn nyinaa kɔtenaa kodoɔ mu kɔɔ ɛpo, nanso saa anadwo no wɔanyi nam biara.
4 But having now become morning, Jesus stood on the shore. However the disciples had not seen that it was Jesus.
Adeɛ kyee anɔpa a anim retete no, Yesu bɛgyinaa mpoano hɔ, nanso na asuafoɔ no nnim sɛ ɛyɛ ɔno.
5 Therefore Jesus says to them, Children, have ye anything eatable? They answered him, No.
Ɔfrɛɛ asuafoɔ no bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Anuanom, moayi nam bi anaa?” Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Dabi.”
6 And he said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye will find. Therefore they cast, and they were no longer able to draw it for the magnitude of fishes.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mongu mo asau no wɔ nifa fam na mobɛyi nam.” Wɔguu asau no sɛdeɛ ɔkaeɛ no. Nam yɛɛ asau no ma sei tɔ a na wɔtwe a ɛntwe.
7 That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved says to Peter, It is the Lord. So when Simon Peter heard that it is the Lord, he tied the coat around himself (for he was undressed), and threw himself into the sea.
Afei, osuani a Yesu dɔ no no ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Awurade.” Ɛberɛ a Simon Petro tee sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade no, ɔhyɛɛ nʼatadeɛ, huri tɔɔ nsuo no mu dware kɔɔ mpoano hɔ.
8 And the other disciples came in the skiff (for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits off), dragging the net of the fishes.
Asuafoɔ a wɔaka no tenaa kodoɔ no mu baa mpoano hɔ bi. Wɔreba no, na wɔretwe asau a na nam ahyɛ no ma sei tɔ no. Ɛkwan a ɛfiri faako a wɔwɔ wɔ ɛpo no so ba mpoano hɔ no bɛyɛ mita ɔha.
9 So when they came to the land, they saw a fire of coals set, and fish laying on it, and bread.
Wɔduruu mpoano hɔ no wɔhunuu sɛ obi asɔ ogya retoto nam na burodo bi nso gu nkyɛn.
10 Jesus says to them, Bring from the fishes that ye now caught.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Momfa nam a moayi no bi mmra.”
11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty-three. And being so many, the net was not broken.
Simon Petro foro kɔɔ kodoɔ no mu kɔtwee asau a na nam akɛseɛ bɛyɛ ɔha aduonum mmiɛnsa wɔ mu no baa mpoano hɔ. Ɛwom sɛ na nam ayɛ asau no ma deɛ, nanso antete.
12 Jesus says to them, Come, eat breakfast. And none of the disciples dared to query him, Who are thou? knowing that it is the Lord.
Yesu frɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mommɛdidi.” Asuafoɔ no mu biara ammisa no onipa ko a ɔyɛ ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔnim sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade.
13 Jesus therefore comes, and takes the bread, and gives to them, and the fish likewise.
Yesu faa burodo no kyekyɛ maa wɔn. Yei akyi no, ɔkyɛɛ nam a na wɔatoto no nso maa wɔn.
14 This is now a third time Jesus was manifested to his disciples after being raised from the dead.
Yei ne ne mprɛnsa so a Yesu sɔre firii awufoɔ mu no, ɔyii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no.
15 So when they ate breakfast, Jesus says to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonah, do thou love me more than these things? He says to him, Yea, Lord. Thou know that I love thee. He says to him, Feed my lambs.
Wɔdidi wieeɛ no, Yesu bisaa Simon Petro sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, wodɔ me sene sɛdeɛ yeinom dɔ me no anaa?” Petro buaa sɛ, “Aane, Awurade, wonim sɛ medɔ wo.” Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne me nnwammaa.”
16 He says to him again a second time, Simon, son of Jonah, do thou love me? He says to him, Yea, Lord. Thou know that I love thee. He says to him, Feed my sheep.
Yesu sane bisaa no sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, wodɔ me anaa?” Petro sane buaa sɛ, “Aane, Awurade, wonim sɛ medɔ wo.” Yesu sane ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hwɛ me nnwan.”
17 He says to him the third time, Simon, son of Jonah, do thou love me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Do thou love me? And he said to him, Lord, thou know all things. Thou know that I love thee. Jesus says to him, Feed my sheep.
Yesu bisaa no ne mprɛnsa so sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, ampa ara sɛ wodɔ me?” Asɛm yi yɛɛ Petro awerɛhoɔ sɛ Yesu abisa no saa asɛm korɔ no ara mprɛnsa. Enti, ɔka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Awurade, wonim biribiara, na wonim nso sɛ, medɔ wo!” Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne me nnwan.
18 Truly, truly, I say to thee, When thou were younger, thou girded thyself, and walked where thou would, but when thou become old, thou will stretch forth thy hands, and another will gird thee, and carry thee where thou do not want.
Meka nokorɛ akyerɛ wo. Woyɛ aberanteɛ no, na wotumi siesie wo ho kɔ baabiara a wopɛ, na woyɛ deɛ wopɛ biara nso. Nanso, sɛ wobɔ akɔkoraa a, wobɛtene wo nsam na obi asiesie wo ho ama wo, de wo akɔ baabi a anka wompɛ sɛ wokɔ.”
19 Now he said this, signifying by what kind of death he will glorify God. And after saying this, he says to him, Follow me.
Asɛm a Yesu kaeɛ no, ɔde kyerɛɛ owu ko a Petro bɛwu de ahyɛ Onyankopɔn animuonyam. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Di mʼakyi.”
20 But Peter, having turned around, sees the disciple whom Jesus loves, following, who also leaned near his chest at the supper, and said, Lord, who is the man betraying thee?
Petro twaa nʼani hwɛɛ nʼakyi hunuu sɛ osuani a Yesu dɔ no no di wɔn akyi. Saa osuani yi ne obi a wɔredidi no, ɔtwe bɛn Yesu bisaa no sɛ, “Awurade, hwan na ɔbɛyi wo ama” no?
21 Having seen this man, Peter says to Jesus, Lord, and what of this man?
Petro hunuu saa osuani yi no, ɔbisaa Yesu sɛ, “Awurade, na yei nso ɛdeɛn na ɛbɛto no?”
22 Jesus says to him, If I want him to remain until I come, what is it to thee? Follow thou me.
Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Sɛ mepɛ sɛ ɔtena hɔ kɔsi sɛ mɛsane aba a, ɛfa wo ho bɛn? Wo deɛ, di mʼakyi.”
23 This saying therefore went forth among the brothers, that that disciple does not die. And yet Jesus did not say to him, that he does not die, but, If I want him to remain until I come, what is it to thee?
Asɛm a Yesu ka faa saa osuani yi ho no maa Yesu akyidifoɔ no mu pii susuu sɛ, saa osuani no renwu da. Nanso, na ɛnyɛ deɛ Yesu hwehwɛ akyerɛ ne no, ɛberɛ a ɔkaa sɛ, “Sɛ mepɛ sɛ ɔtena hɔ kɔsi sɛ mɛsane aba a, ɛfa wo ho bɛn?”
24 This is the disciple who testifies about these things, and who wrote these things. And we know that his testimony is true.
Saa osuani yi ne onipa a ɔdi yeinom nyinaa ho adanseɛ na ɔtwerɛeɛ nso. Yɛnim sɛ nʼadanseɛ no yɛ nokorɛ.
25 And there are also many other things, as many as Jesus did, which if they would be written every one, I suppose not even the world itself to make room for the books being written. Truly.
Nneɛma bebree wɔ hɔ nso a Yesu yɛeɛ a wɔantwerɛ, na sɛ wɔtwerɛeɛ no mmaako mmaako a, anka megye di sɛ ɛrensene ewiase.
