Luke 10
1 Then, after these things, the Lord also designated another seventy-two. And he sent them in pairs before his face, into every city and place where he was to arrive.
Eyi akyi no, Yesu yii nʼakyidifo no mu aduɔson somaa wɔn baanu baanu kɔɔ nkurow ne nkuraa a akyiri no ɔbɛkɔ hɔ no so.
2 And he said to them: “Certainly the harvest is great, but the workers are few. Therefore, ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers into his harvest.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Otwa adwuma no dɔɔso, nanso adwumayɛfo no sua. Enti monsrɛ adwumawura no na ɔmma adwumayɛfo bebree mmra ne twa adwuma no mu.
3 Go forth. Behold, I send you out like lambs among wolves.
Monkɔ, na meresoma mo sɛ nguan akɔ mpataku mu.
4 Do not choose to carry a purse, nor provisions, nor shoes; and you shall greet no one along the way.
Mommfa sika, akwantu kotoku anaa mpaboa; na munnkyia obiara nso a mubehyia no wɔ ɔkwan so.
5 Into whatever house you will have entered, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’
“Sɛ mokɔ ofi biara mu a, munni kan nkyia ofie hɔfo no se, ‘Asomdwoe nka mo!’
6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.
Na sɛ asomdwoe ba bi wɔ hɔ a, mo asomdwoe bɛba ne so; na sɛ obi a ɔte saa nni hɔ a, mo asomdwoe bɛsan aba mo nkyɛn.
7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things that are with them. For the worker is worthy of his pay. Do not choose to pass from house to house.
Ofi biara a mokɔ mu no, momma hɔ nyɛ mo atenae; aduan biara a wɔde bɛma mo no, munni efisɛ ɛsɛ sɛ odwumayɛni biara nya nʼadwumayɛ so akatua; munnni atutena wɔ afi mu.
8 And into whatever city you have entered and they have received you, eat what they set before you.
“Na sɛ mokɔ kurow biara mu na wogye mo fɛw so a, aduan biara a wɔde bɛma mo no munni.
9 And cure the sick who are in that place, and proclaim to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
Monsa kurow no mu ayarefo yare, na monka nkyerɛ ɛhɔfo nyinaa se, ‘Onyankopɔn ahenni no abɛn mo.’
10 But into whatever city you have entered and they have not received you, going out into its main streets, say:
Nanso sɛ mokɔ kurow biara mu na wɔannye mo fɛw so a monkɔ ne mmɔnten so nkɔpae mu nka se,
11 ‘Even the dust which clings to us from your city, we wipe away against you. Yet know this: the kingdom of God has drawn near.’
‘Mo kurom ha mfutuma a ɛwɔ yɛn nan ase mpo, yɛreporoporow agu, de atia mo; na mmom munhu pefee sɛ, Onyankopɔn ahenni no abɛn.’
12 I say to you, that in that day, Sodom will be forgiven more than that city will be.
Mereka akyerɛ mo se, saa kurow no, asɛm a ɛbɛto wɔn atemmuda no bɛsen nea ɛtoo Sodom no.
13 Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that have been wrought in you, had been wrought in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in haircloth and ashes.
“Korasin, due! Betsaida, due! Anwonwade a meyɛɛ wɔ mo mu no, sɛ meyɛɛ wɔ Tiro ne Sidon a, anka ɛhɔfo no de awerɛhow ne ahonu asakra wɔn adwene dedaw.
14 Yet truly, Tyre and Sidon will be forgiven more in the judgment than you will be.
Atemmuda no, asɛm a ɛbɛto wɔn no bɛsen nea ɛbɛto Tiro ne Sidon.
15 And as for you, Capernaum, who would be exalted even up to Heaven: you shall be submerged into Hell. (Hadēs g86)
Na wo Kapernaum, wugye di sɛ wubenya ɔsoro anuonyam? Dabi da, wobɛkɔ asaman. (Hadēs g86)
16 Whoever hears you, hears me. And whoever despises you, despises me. And whoever despises me, despises him who sent me.”
“Obiara a otie mo no tie me, na nea ɔpo mo no po me, na nea ɔpo me no nso po nea ɔsomaa me no.”
17 Then the seventy-two returned with gladness, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us, in your name.”
Aduɔson no san de anigye ba bɛbɔɔ amanneɛ se, “Awurade, wo din nti ahonhommɔne mpo abrɛ wɔn ho ase ama yɛn.”
18 And he said to them: “I was watching as Satan fell like lightning from heaven.
Na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mihuu sɛ ɔbonsam retew afi ɔsoro sɛ anyinam abɛhwe fam.
19 Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the powers of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.
Mama mo tumi ne ahoɔden a mode betiatia awɔ ne nkekantwɛre ne ɔtamfo no tumi biara a ɔwɔ so na biribiara nso rentumi mo.
20 Yet truly, do not choose to rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
Nanso mommma mo ani nnye sɛ ahonhommɔne brɛ wɔn ho ase ma mo, na mmom, momma mo ani nnye sɛ wɔakyerɛw mo din wɔ ɔsoro.”
21 In the same hour, he exulted in the Holy Spirit, and he said: “I confess to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the prudent, and have revealed them to little ones. It is so, Father, because this way was pleasing before you.
Saa bere no ara mu na Yesu de Honhom Kronkron mu anigye bɔɔ mpae se, “Agya, ɔsoro ne asase wura, meda wo ase sɛ wode saa nneɛma yi ahintaw wɔn a wosusuw sɛ wɔyɛ anyansafo, na mmom woada nokware no adi akyerɛ wɔn a wɔde ahobrɛase gye wo di sɛ mmofra no. Nanso Agya, wo pɛ mu na woma ɛbaa saa.
22 All things have been delivered to me by my Father. And no one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and those to whom the Son has chosen to reveal him.”
“Mʼagya de nneɛma nyinaa ahyɛ me nsa; na obiara nnim Ɔba no, gye Agya no. Saa ara nso na obiara nnim Agya no, gye Ɔba no ne wɔn a Ɔba no bɛda Agya no adi akyerɛ wɔn no.”
23 And turning to his disciples, he said: “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.
Ɛkaa ɔne nʼasuafo no, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Nhyira ne aniwa a ehu nea muhu!
24 For I say to you, that many prophets and kings wanted to see the things that you see, and they did not see them, and to hear the things that you hear, and they did not hear them.”
Efisɛ adiyifo ne ahene pii pɛe sɛ anka wohu nea muhu yi na wɔte nea mote yi, nanso wɔanhu na wɔante.”
25 And behold, a certain expert in the law rose up, testing him and saying, “Teacher, what must I do to possess eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Mmaranimfo bi pɛɛ sɛ ɔsɔ Yesu hwɛ nti obisaa no se, “Kyerɛkyerɛfo, menyɛ dɛn na manya nkwa a enni awiei?” (aiōnios g166)
26 But he said to him: “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
Yesu nso bisaa no se, “Dɛn na wɔakyerɛw wɔ Mose mmara no mu? Na wote ase dɛn?”
27 In response, he said: “You shall love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from all your strength, and from all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
Obuaa no se, “Mmara no ka se, ‘Fa wo koma, ne wo kra, ne wʼahoɔden, ne wʼadwene nyinaa dɔ Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn, na dɔ wo yɔnko sɛ wo ho!’”
28 And he said to him: “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Woabua no yiye. Yɛ eyinom na wubenya nkwa.”
29 But since he wanted to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
Nanso ɔbarima no pɛɛ sɛ ɔkyerɛ sɛ odi mmara no nyinaa so nti, obisaa Yesu se, “Hena ne me yɔnko?”
30 Then Jesus, taking this up, said: “A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he happened upon robbers, who now also plundered him. And inflicting him with wounds, they went away, leaving him behind, half-alive.
Yesu nso maa no mfatoho bi se, “Da bi, na ɔbarima bi retu kwan afi Yerusalem akɔ Yeriko. Na ɔnam ɔkwan so no, ɔkɔtɔɔ akwamukafo mu na wogyee ne ho nneɛma nyinaa, hwee no, pirapiraa no ma ɔtɔɔ beraw, gyaw no too ɔkwan kyɛn kɔe.
31 And it happened that a certain priest was descending along the same way. And seeing him, he passed by.
Ankyɛ biara, Yudani sɔfo bi bepuee ne so, nanso ɔman faa nkyɛn kɔe.
32 And similarly a Levite, when he was near the place, also saw him, and he passed by.
Saa ara nso na Lewini bi nso bepuee ne so man faa nkyɛn.
33 But a certain Samaritan, being on a journey, came near him. And seeing him, he was moved by mercy.
Ankyɛ biara na Samariani bi nso beduu hɔ. Ohuu no no, ɔyɛɛ no mmɔbɔ.
34 And approaching him, he bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. And setting him on his pack animal, he brought him to an inn, and he took care of him.
Ɔkɔkotow ne nkyɛn, hohoroo nʼapirakuru no anim, de aduru guguu mu, kyekyeree. Afei ɔmaa no so de no tenaa nʼafurum so dii aboa no nkyɛn de no kɔɔ ahɔhobea bi hwɛɛ no anadwo mu no nyinaa.
35 And the next day, he took out two denarii, and he gave them to the proprietor, and he said: ‘Take care of him. And whatever extra you will have spent, I will repay to you at my return.’
Ade kyee no ogyaw ahɔhobea sohwɛfo no sika a ɛbɛso no hwɛ sɛ ɔmfa nhwɛ no. Ɔsan hyɛɛ no bɔ se, ‘Ka foforo biara a wobɛbɔ wɔ ne ho no, mɛba abetua.’
36 Which of these three, does it seem to you, was a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
“Afei saa nnipa baasa yi mu hena na ɔyɛɛ ne yɔnko?”
37 Then he said, “The one who acted with mercy toward him.” And Jesus said to him, “Go, and act similarly.”
Mmaranimfo no buae se, “Nea ohuu opirafo no mmɔbɔ no.” Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wo nso, kɔ na kɔyɛ saa ara.”
38 Now it happened that, while they were traveling, he entered into a certain town. And a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her home.
Ɛbaa sɛ Yesu ne nʼasuafo rekɔ Yerusalem no, wokoduu akuraa bi ase. Woduu hɔ no, ɔbea bi a wɔfrɛ no Marta de no kɔɔ ne fi.
39 And she had a sister, named Mary, who, while sitting beside the Lord’s feet, was listening to his word.
Marta nuabea bi a wɔfrɛ no Maria tenaa fam wɔ Yesu nkyɛn tiee no.
40 Now Martha was continually busying herself with serving. And she stood still and said: “Lord, is it not a concern to you that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore, speak to her, so that she may help me.”
Saa bere no, Marta a nʼani abere reyɛ aduan no baa Yesu nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Awurade, mayɛ adwuma abrɛ, nti ka kyerɛ Maria na ommeso mu mma me.”
41 And the Lord responded by saying to her: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled over many things.
Awurade buaa no se, “Marta, Marta, wudwinnwen haw wo ho wɔ nneɛma pii ho.
42 And yet only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the best portion, and it shall not be taken away from her.”
Ade baako pɛ na ehia; ɛno na Maria afa no; na wɔrennye mfi ne nsam.”
