< Revelation 1 >

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to make known to his servants the things which must shortly come to pass: and signified, sending by his angel to his servant John,
Saa nhoma yi fa adiyisɛm a Onyankopɔn de maa Yesu Kristo sɛ ɔnkyerɛ nʼasomfo nea ɛrebɛba no ho. Kristo somaa ne bɔfo kɔɔ nʼakoa Yohane nkyɛn kɔdaa asɛm yi adi kyerɛɛ no,
2 Who hath given testimony to the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, what things soever he hath seen.
sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Yohane bɛka biribiara a ohui. Eyi ne nʼadansedi ne asɛm a efi Onyankopɔn nkyɛn ne nokware a Yesu Kristo daa no adi no.
3 Blessed is he, that readeth and heareth the words of this prophecy; and keepeth those things which are written in it; for the time is at hand.
Nhyira nka obiara a ɔbɛkenkan saa nhoma yi, na nhyira nka wɔn nso a wotie adiyisɛm no na wodi so sɛnea wɔakyerɛw wɔ saa nhoma yi mu no. Bere no abɛn.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia. Grace be unto you and peace from him that is, and that was, and that is to come, and from the seven spirits which are before his throne,
Yohane, Nkyia a okyia asafo ahorow ason a ɛwɔ Asia no ni: Adom ne asomdwoe a efi nea ɔwɔ hɔ, na ɔtenaa hɔ, na ɔreba no ne ahonhom ason a wɔwɔ nʼahengua anim,
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth, who hath loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
ne Yesu Kristo a ɔyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafo ne awufo mu abakan ne asase so ahene sodifo no nkyɛn nka mo. Ɔdɔ yɛn, na ɔnam ne wu no so agye yɛn afi yɛn bɔne mu.
6 And hath made us a kingdom, and priests to God and his Father, to him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Wayɛ yɛn ahemman ne asɔfo sɛ yɛnsom ne Nyankopɔn ne nʼAgya. Ɔno na wɔmfa anuonyam ne tumi mma no daa daa! Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they also that pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth shall bewail themselves because of him. Even so. Amen.
Hwɛ, ɔnam omununkum mu reba. Wɔn a wɔwɔɔ no peaw no ne obiara behu no. Asase so nnipa nyinaa besu no; ne nti
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
Awurade Nyankopɔn Tumfo no se, “Mene Alfa ne Omega a ɔwɔ hɔ mprempren na ɔwɔ hɔ dedaw na ɔyɛ nea ɔrebɛba no.”
9 I John, your brother and your partner in tribulation, and in the kingdom, and patience in Christ Jesus, was in the island, which is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus.
Me Yohane, a me ne mo nyinaa yɛ akyidifo. Yehu amane efisɛ Yesu ne yɛn hene, na ɔma yɛn ahoɔden wɔ ahohia mu. Esiane sɛ mekaa Onyankopɔn asɛm kaa nokware a Yesu daa no adi nti, wotwaa me asu de me kɔɔ Supɔw Patmo so.
10 I was in the spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
Awurade da no, Honhom no faa me na metee nne dennen bi a ɛte sɛ torobɛnto a ɛrebɔ wɔ mʼakyi.
11 Saying: What thou seest, write in a book, and send to the seven churches which are in Asia, to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamus, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.
Ɛkae se, “Kyerɛw biribiara a wuhu, na fa nhoma no kɔma saa asafo ahorow ason a ɛwɔ Efeso ne Smirna ne Pergamo ne Tiatira ne Sardi ne Filadelfia ne Laodikea no.”
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks:
Medan mʼani, pɛɛ sɛ mihu nea ɔrekasa kyerɛ me no. Ɛhɔ na mihuu sikakɔkɔɔ akaneadua ason.
13 And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, one like to the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
Na akaneadua no mfimfini na onipa bi a ɔte sɛ Onipa Ba a ɔhyɛ batakari yuu a esi nʼanan ase a sika abɔso kyekyere ne koko no gyina.
14 And his head and his hairs were white, as white wool, and as snow, and his eyes were as a flame of fire,
Na ne tinwi yɛ fitaa te sɛ asaawamfuturu anaasɛ sukyerɛmma, na nʼani dɛw sɛ ogya.
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as in a burning furnace. And his voice as the sound of many waters.
Ne nan ase hyerɛnee sɛ asanka a wɔanan wɔ fononoo mu na afei wɔatwiw ho na ne nne woro so te sɛ asuworoe a ano yɛ den.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came out a sharp two edged sword: and his face was as the sun shineth in his power.
Na okura nsoromma ason wɔ ne nsa nifa mu na afoa anofanu a ɛyɛ nnam fi nʼanom bae. Na nʼanim hyerɛn te sɛ owigyinae wia.
17 And when I had seen him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying: Fear not. I am the First and the Last,
Mihuu no no, mekɔhwee nʼanan ase te sɛ owufo. Ɔde ne nsa nifa too me so kae se, “Nsuro! Mene Ɔkannifo ne Okyikafo.
18 And alive, and was dead, and behold I am living for ever and ever, and have the keys of death and of hell. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
Mene ɔteasefo no! Miwui, nanso mprempren mete ase daa daa. Mikura owu ne asaman safe. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
19 Write therefore the things which thou hast seen, and which are, and which must be done hereafter.
“Enti afei kyerɛw nneɛma a wuhu; nea wuhu no mprempren ne nea ɛbɛba akyiri no, kyerɛw.
20 The mystery of the seven stars, which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. And the seven candlesticks are the seven churches.
Nsoromma ason a wuhu wɔ me nsa nifa mu ne sika akaneadua no nkyerɛase a ɛyɛ ahintasɛm no ni; Nsoromma ason no yɛ asafo ason no abɔfo, na akaneadua ason no nso yɛ asafo ason no.”
