< Mark 11 >

1 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two of His disciples
Yesu ne nʼasuafo no rebɛn Yerusalem, na woduu Betfage ne Betania a ɛwɔ Ngo Bepɔw no ho no, ɔsomaa nʼasuafo no mu baanu dii wɔn anim kan.
2 and said to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monkɔ akuraa a ɛwɔ hɔ no ase. Sɛ mudu hɔ a, mubehu sɛ wɔasa afurum ba bi a wɔntenaa ne so da hama. Monsan no na momfa no mmrɛ me.
3 If anyone asks, ‘Why are you doing this?’ tell him, ‘The Lord needs it and will return it shortly.’”
Na sɛ obi bisa mo se dɛn na moreyɛ a, monka no tiaa se, ‘Ne ho hia Awurade, na ɔbɛsan de no aba mprempren ara.’”
4 So they went and found the colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. They untied it,
Asuafo baanu no sii mu. Wokohuu sɛ aboa no sa ofi bi abobow ano. Enti wɔsan no.
5 and some who were standing there asked, “Why are you untying the colt?”
Wogu so resan no no, nnipa bi a wogyina nkyɛn bisaa wɔn se, “Adɛn nti na moresan afurum ba no?”
6 The disciples answered as Jesus had instructed them, and the people gave them permission.
Wɔkaa asɛm a Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn no kyerɛɛ nnipa no ma wɔtee wɔn ase.
7 Then they led the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, and He sat on it.
Wɔde afurum ba no brɛɛ Yesu maa asuafo no de wɔn ntama guu aboa no so, maa Yesu tenaa no so.
8 Many in the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut from the fields.
Nnipakuw a wɔwɔ hɔ no bi de wɔn ntama sesɛw ɔkwan a ɔde aboa no nam so no so. Ebinom nso pempan nnua mman de sesɛw ɔkwan no mu saa ara.
9 The ones who went ahead and those who followed were shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!”
Na Yesu di nnipakuw no mfimfini a wɔn nyinaa reteɛteɛ mu se, “Hosiana!” “Nhyira ne nea ɔnam Awurade din mu reba!”
10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!” “Hosanna in the highest!”
“Anuonyam nka Onyankopɔn sɛ yɛn agya Dawid ahenni reba.” “Hosiana wɔ sorosoro!”
11 Then Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
Yesu koduu Yerusalem no, ɔkɔɔ asɔredan no mu. Ɔhwɛɛ biribiara a ɛwɔ hɔ dinn ansa na ɔrefi hɔ, efisɛ, na onwini redwo enti ɔne asuafo dumien no kɔɔ Betania.
12 The next day, when they had left Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
Ade kyee anɔpa a wɔrefi Betania hɔ no, ɔkɔm dee no.
13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if there was any fruit on it. But when He reached it, He found nothing on it except leaves, since it was not the season for figs.
Wɔkɔɔ kakra no, ohuu sɛ borɔdɔma dua bi si hɔ a ayɛ kusuu. Ɔkɔɔ hɔ kɔhwɛɛ sɛ aduaba no bi wɔ so ana. Nanso oduu hɔ no ohuu sɛ nhaban nko ara na ɛwɔ so. Saa bere no nso na ɛnyɛ bere a ɛsɛ sɛ borɔdɔma no sow.
14 Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this statement. (aiōn g165)
Yesu domee borɔdɔma dua no se, “Efi nnɛ, worensow aba bio!” Asuafo no tee asɛm a ɔkae no. (aiōn g165)
15 When they arrived in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began to drive out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.
Yesu san baa Yerusalem no, ɔkɔɔ hyiadan mu hɔ. Oduu hɔ no, ɔpam aguadifo a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa, kaa sikasesafo apon nyinaa guu fam, bubuu pata a wɔtɔn mmorɔnoma wɔ mu no nyinaa,
16 And He would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts.
siw kwan sɛ obiara mmedi gua wɔ hɔ bio.
17 Then Jesus began to teach them, and He declared, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Kyerɛwsɛm no ka se, ‘Mʼasɔrefi yɛ beae a wɔbɔ mpae,’ nanso mo de, mode hɔ ayɛ akorɔmfo atenae.”
18 When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they looked for a way to kill Him. For they were afraid of Him, because the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.
Asɔfo mpanyin ne Yudafo mpanyimfo tee nea Yesu ayɛ no, wɔbɔɔ ne ho pɔw, pɛɛ ɔkwan a wɔbɛfa so ayi no afi hɔ. Asɛm a na ɛhaw wɔn ne sɛ, sɛ wɔanhwɛ no yiye nso a, ɛde basabasayɛ bɛba, efisɛ na nnipa bebree agye Yesu nkyerɛkyerɛ no ato mu.
19 And when evening came, Jesus and His disciples went out of the city.
Sɛnea na wɔtaa yɛ no, anwummere no ara, wofii kurow no mu.
20 As they were walking back in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from its roots.
Anɔpa a asuafo no retwa mu wɔ borɔdɔma dua a Yesu domee no no ho no, wuhuu sɛ awu.
21 Peter remembered it and said, “Look, Rabbi! The fig tree You cursed has withered.”
Petro kaee asɛm a Yesu ka de domee dua no no, ɔteɛɛ mu se, “Hwɛ, Kyerɛkyerɛfo! Borɔdɔma dua a wodomee no no awu!”
22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus said to them.
Yesu nso ka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafo no se, “Sɛ mowɔ gyidi wɔ Onyankopɔn mu a,
23 “Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him.
anka mubetumi aka akyerɛ Ngo Bepɔw yi se, ‘Tutu kogu po mu,’ na ebetutu akogu mu nso. Munnye nni; mommma mo gyidi nhinhim.
24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
Muntie nea mereka yi. Biribiara a mubebisa wɔ mpaebɔ mu no, munnye nni sɛ mo nsa aka, na ɛbɛyɛ hɔ ama mo.
25 And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well.”
Na sɛ morebɔ mpae a, nea edi kan no, sɛ mowɔ obi ho asɛm a momfa nkyɛ no sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mo Agya a ɔwɔ ɔsoro no nso de mo bɔne bɛkyɛ mo.
Na sɛ moamfa bɔne ankyɛ a, saa ara na mo Agya a ɔwɔ ɔsoro no nso remfa mo bɔne nkyɛ mo.”
27 After their return to Jerusalem, Jesus was walking in the temple courts, and the chief priests, scribes, and elders came up to Him.
Wɔbaa Yerusalem bio. Wɔkɔɔ hyiadan mu hɔ no, asɔfo mpanyin ne Yudafo mpanyin baa ne nkyɛn bebisaa no se,
28 “By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You the authority to do them?”
“Tumi bɛn na wugyinaa so pam aguadifo no?”
29 “I will ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
Yesu nso buaa wɔn se, “Merebebisa mo asɛm baako bi na mummua me!
30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me!”
Onyankopɔn na ɔsomaa Osuboni Yohane, anaa ɛnyɛ ɔno? Mummua me!”
31 They deliberated among themselves what they should answer: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
Wodwinnwen ho kae se, “Sɛ yɛka se, Onyankopɔn na ɔsomaa no a, wobebisa yɛn nea enti a yɛannye nea Yohane kae no anni.
32 But if we say, ‘From men’...” they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John truly was a prophet.
Na sɛ yɛka se ɛnyɛ Onyankopɔn na ɔsomaa no nso a, dɔm no bɛhaw yɛn. Efisɛ wɔn nyinaa nim sɛ Yohane yɛ odiyifo.”
33 So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
Enti wɔn mmuae a wɔmae ara ne sɛ, “Yɛrentumi mmua. Yennim.” Ɛhɔ ara na Yesu nso ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Sɛ munnim de a, me nso meremma mo asɛmmisa no ho mmuae!”
