John 14
1 “Don't let your minds be anxious. Trust in God, trust in me as well.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, “Mommma mo akoma nntu. Monnye Onyankopɔn nni na monnye me nso nni.
2 In my Father's house there are many rooms. If this wasn't so I would have told you. I'm going to prepare a place for you.
Tenaberɛ bebree wɔ mʼAgya efie, ɛno enti, merekɔ akɔsiesie baabi ama mo. Sɛ asɛm a mereka yi nyɛ nokorɛ a, anka merenka nkyerɛ mo.
3 Once I've gone and prepared a place for you, I will come again and take you back with me, so that you can be there with me too.
Na sɛ mekɔ na mekɔsiesie baabi ma mo a, mɛsane aba abɛfa mo akɔ na me ne mo akɔtena.
4 You know the way to where I'm going.”
Monim faako a merekɔ no ne ɛkwan ko a mobɛfa so aba hɔ bi.”
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don't know where you're going. How can we know the way?”
Toma bisaa no sɛ, “Awurade yɛnnim faako a worekɔ na yɛbɛyɛ dɛn ahunu ɛkwan aba hɔ bi?”
6 Jesus replied, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Yesu buaa sɛ, “Mene ɛkwan no, ne nokorɛ no, ne nkwa no; obi ntumi nkɔ Agya no hɔ, gye sɛ ɔfa me so.”
7 If you had known me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and you have seen him.”
Yesu kaa bio sɛ, “Afei a moahunu onipa ko a meyɛ yi, saa ara nso na mobɛhunu mʼAgya no, na ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ yi monim no, ɛfiri sɛ, moahunu no!”
8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we'll be convinced.”
Filipo bisaa no sɛ, “Awurade, kyerɛ yɛn Agya no, ɛfiri sɛ, deɛ yɛrehwehwɛ ara ne no.”
9 Jesus replied, “Have I been with you such a long time, Philip, and yet you still don't know me? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Filipo, enti me ne mo nanteeɛ dadaada yi, wonnim onipa ko a meyɛ? Obiara a ɔnim onipa ko a meyɛ no nim mʼAgya no. Adɛn enti na woka sɛ, ‘Kyerɛ yɛn Agya’ no?
10 Don't you believe that I live in the Father and the Father lives in me? The words I speak are not mine; it's the Father living in me who is doing his work.
Filipo wonnye nni sɛ mewɔ Agya no mu na Agya no nso wɔ me mu? Yesu sane ka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, nsɛm a maka akyerɛ mo no mfiri mʼankasa. Agya a ɔte me mu no na ɔnam me so yɛ nʼadwuma.
11 Believe me when I tell you that I live in the Father, and the Father lives in me, or at least believe because of the evidence provided by all that I've done.
Monnye me nni sɛ mewɔ Agya no mu na Agya no nso wɔ me mu. Sɛ monnnye nsɛm a maka no nni a, nnwuma a mayɛ no enti, monnye nni.
12 I tell you the truth, anyone who trusts in me will do the same things I am doing. In fact they will do even greater things because I am going to the Father.
Mereka nokorɛ akyerɛ mo, obiara a ɔgye me di no, bɛyɛ nnwuma a meyɛ no bi na mpo ɔbɛyɛ nnwuma akɛseakɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, merekɔ mʼAgya no nkyɛn.
13 I'll do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified through the Son.
Na biribiara a mobɛbisa wɔ me din mu no, mɛyɛ ama mo, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Agya no animuonyam nam ne Ba no so bɛda adi.
14 Whatever you ask for in my name, I will do it.
Biribiara a mode me din bɛbisa no, mɛyɛ ama mo.”
15 If you love me, you will keep my commands.
“Sɛ modɔ me a, mobɛdi mʼahyɛdeɛ so.
Mɛbisa Agya no na wama mo ɔboafoɔ foforɔ a ɔne Honhom Kronkron no a ɔda Onyankopɔn nokorɛ nyinaa adi no na ɔne mo atena daa. (aiōn g165)
17 the Spirit of truth, who will always be with you. The world cannot accept him because it isn't looking for him and does not know him. But you know him because he lives with you and will be in you.
Ewiase rentumi nnye no, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔnhunu no, na wɔnnim no. Nanso, mo deɛ, monim no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔne mo na ɛte.
18 I will not abandon you like orphans: I will come back to you.
Merennya mo sɛ nwisiaa; mɛsane aba mo nkyɛn bio.
19 Soon the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you will live too.
Ɛrenkyɛre biara nnipa renhunu me bio, nanso mo deɛ, mobɛhunu me; na ɛsiane sɛ mete ase no enti, mo nso mobɛtena ase.
20 On that day you will know that I live in the Father, you live in me, and I live in you.
Na da a mɛsɔre afiri awufoɔ mu no duru a, mobɛhunu sɛ mewɔ mʼAgya no mu, na mo nso mowɔ me mu, sɛdeɛ me nso mewɔ mo mu no.
21 Those who keep my commands are the ones who love me, those who love me will be loved by my Father. I will love them too, and will reveal myself to them.”
Obiara a ɔdi mʼahyɛdeɛ so no ne obi a ɔdɔ me. Obiara a ɔdɔ me no mʼAgya bɛdɔ no, na me nso mɛdɔ no na mada me ho adi akyerɛ no.”
22 Judas (not Iscariot) responded, “Lord, why would you reveal yourself to us and not to the world?”
Yuda, a ɛnyɛ Iskariot, kaa sɛ, “Awurade, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na wobɛda wo ho adi akyerɛ yɛn nko ara na ɛnyɛ nnipa nyinaa?”
23 Jesus replied, “Those who love me will do as I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with them.
Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Obiara a ɔdɔ me no bɛdi me nsɛm so. MʼAgya bɛdɔ no na me ne mʼAgya bɛba ne nkyɛn ne no abɛtena.
24 Those who don't love me don't do what I say. These words don't come from me, they come from the Father who sent me.
Obiara a ɔnnɔ me no renni me nsɛm so. Nsɛm a moate no nyɛ me ara me nsɛm, na mmom, ɛfiri mʼAgya a ɔsomaa me no nkyɛn.
25 I'm explaining this to you while I'm still here with you.
“Mewɔ mo nkyɛn yi na mereka yeinom nyinaa akyerɛ mo.
26 But when the Father sends the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, in my place, he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.
Honhom Kronkron no a ɔne ɔboafoɔ a Agya no bɛsoma no me din mu no, bɛkyerɛkyerɛ mo biribiara, na wakaakae mo biribiara a maka akyerɛ mo no.
27 Peace I leave you; my peace I'm giving you. The peace I give you is nothing like what the world gives. Don't let your minds be anxious, and don't be afraid.
Asomdwoeɛ na mede regya mo; mʼasomdwoeɛ na mede regya mo. Ɛnyɛ ewiase asomdwoeɛ na mede regya mo. Mommma mo akoma nntu; na monnsuro nso.
28 You've heard me tell you, ‘I am going away, but I will come back to you.’ If you really loved me, you would be happy because I'm going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
“Monkae asɛm a meka kyerɛɛ mo sɛ, ‘Merekɔ, nanso mɛsane aba mo nkyɛn bio’ no. Sɛ modɔ me ampa ara a, anka mo ani bɛgye, ɛfiri sɛ, afei deɛ, mɛtumi akɔ Agya a ɔwɔ tumi sene me no nkyɛn.
29 I've explained this to you now before it happens so that when it does happen you will be convinced.
Maka yeinom akyerɛ mo sɛdeɛ ɛba mu a mobɛgye me adi.
30 I can't talk to you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no power to control me,
Merentumi nkɔ so nkasa pii nkyerɛ mo bio, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔbonsam no reba, nanso ɔnni me so tumi.
31 but I'm doing what my Father told me to do so that the world will know that I love the Father. Now get up. Let's go.”
Na ɛsɛ sɛ nnipa hunu sɛ medɔ Agya no, ɛno enti na asɛm biara a ɔbɛka no, meyɛ no. “Monsɔre ma yɛnkɔ.”
