John 5
1 After that, there was a feast of the Iewes, and Iesus went vp to Hierusalem.
Eyi akyi no Yudafo afahyɛ bi nti Yesu san kɔɔ Yerusalem.
2 And there is at Hierusalem by the place of the sheepe, a poole called in Ebrew Bethesda, hauing fiue porches:
Na ɔtare bi wɔ kurow no mu a wɔfrɛ no Betseda a na ɛbɛn kurow no ano pon kɛse bi a wɔfrɛ no Nguan Pon no. Na wɔabɔ pata ahorow anum atwa ho ahyia.
3 In the which lay a great multitude of sicke folke, of blinde, halte, and withered, wayting for the mouing of the water.
Saa pata yi ase na na ayarefo pii sɛ, anifuraefo, mpakye ne mmubuafo wɔ retwɛn sɛ Awurade bɔfo fi ɔsoro bɛba abɛfono nsu no.
4 For an Angel went downe at a certaine season into the poole, and troubled the water: whosoeuer then first, after the stirring of the water, stepped in, was made whole of whatsoeuer disease he had.
Nea ɛte ne sɛ, sɛ ɔbɔfo no fono nsu no wie a, ɔyarefo a obedi kan atɔ mu no nya ayaresa.
5 And a certaine man was there, which had bene diseased eight and thirtie yeeres.
Na ɔbarima bi ayare ada ɔtare no ho mfe aduasa awotwe.
6 When Iesus sawe him lie, and knew that he nowe long time had bene diseased, he saide vnto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
Yesu huu sɛ wayare ada hɔ akyɛ no, obisaa no se, “Wopɛ sɛ wo ho tɔ wo ana?”
7 The sicke man answered him, Sir, I haue no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the poole: but while I am comming, another steppeth downe before me.
Ɔyarefo no buaa no se, “Me wura, sɛ ɔbɔfo no bɛfono nsu no a, minnya obi a ɔbɛma me so ato mu. Bere biara a mɛbɔ me ho mmɔden sɛ merekɔ mu no, obi di me kan.”
8 Iesus said vnto him, Rise: take vp thy bed, and walke.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɔre! Bobɔw wo kɛtɛ na kɔ fie.”
9 And immediatly the man was made whole, and tooke vp his bed, and walked: and the same day was the Sabbath.
Amono mu hɔ ara, ɔbarima no nyaa ahoɔden bobɔw ne kɛtɛ, fii ase nantewee. Na saa da no yɛ homeda.
10 The Iewes therefore said to him that was made whole, It is the Sabbath day: it is not lawfull for thee to cary thy bed.
Yudafo mpanyin huu ɔbarima no sɛ ɔso ne kɛtɛ no, wɔn bo fuw yiye. Wobisaa no se, “Wunnim sɛ nnɛ yɛ homeda na etia mmara sɛ wobɛsoa wo kɛtɛ ana?”
11 He answered them, He that made me whole, he said vnto me, Take vp thy bed, and walke.
Ɔbarima yi de ahopopo yii ne ho ano se, “Onipa a ɔsaa me yare no na ɔka kyerɛɛ me se mensoa me kɛtɛ na menkɔ.”
12 Then asked they him, What man is that which said vnto thee, Take vp thy bed and walke?
Wɔtee saa no wobisaa no se, “Hena ne saa onipa no?”
13 And he that was healed, knewe not who it was: for Iesus had conueied himselfe away from the multitude that was in that place.
Nanso na nea wɔsaa no yare no nnim Yesu. Afei nso na Yesu afa nnipa no mu kɔ.
14 And after that, Iesus founde him in the Temple, and said vnto him, Beholde, thou art made whole: sinne no more, lest a worse thing come vnto thee.
Akyiri no, Yesu hyiaa ɔbarima no wɔ asɔredan mu tuu no fo se, “Afei a wo ho atɔ wo yi, hwɛ yiye na woankɔyɛ bɔne bio amma biribi a ɛsen kan yare no amma wo so.”
15 The man departed and tolde the Iewes that it was Iesus, which had made him whole.
Ɔbarima yi fii hɔ kɔka kyerɛɛ Yudafo mpanyin no se ɛyɛ Yesu na ɔsaa no yare no.
16 And therefore the Iewes did persecute Iesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the Sabbath day.
Yudafo mpanyin yi fii ase tan Yesu ani, efisɛ wabu wɔn homeda mmara no so.
17 But Iesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I worke.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mʼagya yɛ adwuma bere biara enti ɛsɛ sɛ me nso meyɛ adwuma bere biara.”
18 Therefore the Iewes sought the more to kill him: not onely because he had broken the Sabbath: but said also that God was his Father, and made himselfe equall with God.
Saa asɛm a Yesu kaa yi maa Yudafo mpanyin no bo fuwii, na wɔyɛɛ wɔn adwene se wobekum no, efisɛ na ɛnyɛ homeda mmara no nko na obu so na na ɔsan frɛ ne ho se Onyankopɔn Ba de kyerɛ sɛ, ɔne Onyankopɔn yɛ pɛ.
19 Then answered Iesus, and said vnto them, Verely, verely I say vnto you, The Sonne can doe nothing of himselfe, saue that he seeth the Father doe: for whatsoeuer things he doth, the same things doeth the Sonne in like maner.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Ɔba no ntumi mfi ne pɛ mu nyɛ biribi, na mmom ɔyɛ nea ohu sɛ nʼAgya yɛ no bi.
20 For the Father loueth the Sonne, and sheweth him all things, whatsoeuer he himselfe doeth, and he will shewe him greater workes then these, that ye should marueile.
Efisɛ Agya no dɔ Ɔba no na biribiara a Agya no yɛ no ɔma Ɔba no hu. Na Ɔba no bɛyɛ nnwuma akɛse a ɛsen saa ɔbarima yi ayaresa yi ama mo ho adwiriw mo.
21 For likewise as the Father rayseth vp the dead, and quickeneth them, so the Sonne quickeneth whom he will.
Na sɛnea Agya no nyan awufo no, saa ara nso na Ɔba no nyan awufo a ɔpɛ sɛ onyan wɔn no.
22 For the Father iudgeth no man, but hath committed all iudgement vnto the Sonne,
Afei koraa mʼAgya mmu obiara atɛn. Ɔde saa atemmu tumi no ahyɛ Ɔba no nsa
23 Because that all men shoulde honour the Sonne, as they honour the Father: he that honoureth not the Sonne, the same honoureth not the Father, which hath sent him.
sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a obiara bedi Ɔba no ni, sɛnea wodi Agya no ni no. Obiara a onni Ɔba no ni no nni Agya a ɔsomaa no no nso ni.
24 Verely, verely I say vnto you, he that heareth my worde, and beleeueth him that sent me, hath euerlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but hath passed from death vnto life. (aiōnios g166)
“Mereka nokware akyerɛ mo se: Obiara a otie me nsɛm na ogye nea ɔsomaa me no di no wɔ nkwa a enni awiei. Wɔremmu no atɛn, efisɛ wafi owu mu aba nkwa mu. (aiōnios g166)
25 Verely, verely I say vnto you, the houre shall come, and now is, when the dead shall heare the voyce of the Sonne of God: and they that heare it, shall liue.
Mereka nokware bio sɛ, bere bi reba, na mpo saa bere no anya aba a awufo bɛte Onyankopɔn Ba no nne, na wɔn a wɔte ne nne no benya nkwa.
26 For as the Father hath life in himselfe, so likewise hath he giuen to the Sonne to haue life in himselfe,
Sɛnea Agya no yɛ nkwamafo no, saa ara nso na wama ne Ba no tumi ama wayɛ nkwamafo.
27 And hath giuen him power also to execute iudgement, in that he is the Sonne of man.
Wama Ɔba no tumi a ɔde bu atɛn, efisɛ ɔno ne Onipa Ba no.
28 Marueile not at this: for the houre shall come, in the which all that are in the graues, shall heare his voyce.
“Mommma saa asɛm yi nnyɛ mo nwonwa, efisɛ bere bi reba a awufo a wɔwɔ wɔn nna mu mpo bɛte me nne,
29 And they shall come foorth, that haue done good, vnto ye resurrection of life: but they that haue done euil, vnto the resurrection of condemnation.
na wɔasɔresɔre. Wɔn a wɔayɛ papa no benyan atena nkwa mu, na wɔn a wɔayɛ bɔne no nso, wɔabu wɔn fɔ.
30 I can doe nothing of mine owne selfe: as I heare, I iudge: and my iudgement is iust, because I seeke not mine owne will, but the will of the Father who hath sent me.
Merentumi mfi mʼankasa me tumi mu nyɛ biribiara; asɛm a Onyankopɔn aka akyerɛ me no so na migyina bu atɛn. Ɛno nti atɛn a mibu no yɛ nokware.
31 If I should beare witnesse of my selfe, my witnesse were not true.
“Sɛ me ara midi me ho adanse a, mʼadansedi no nni mu.
32 There is another that beareth witnesse of me, and I know that the witnesse, which he beareth of me, is true.
Na obi wɔ hɔ a odi me ho adanse a minim sɛ nʼadanse a odi fa me ho no yɛ nokware.
33 Ye sent vnto Iohn, and he bare witnesse vnto the trueth.
“Moasoma nnipa akɔ Yohane nkyɛn na wadi adanse a ɛyɛ nokware.
34 But I receiue not the record of man: neuerthelesse these things I say, that ye might be saued.
Nnipa adansedi ho nhia me ansa na moahu onipa ko a meyɛ. Na mmom meka Yohane adanse a odii no kyerɛ mo sɛ nea ɛbɛyɛ na Onyankopɔn begye mo nkwa.
35 He was a burning, and a shining candle: and ye would for a season haue reioyced in his light.
Yohane nsɛm a ɔkae yɛ kanea a wɔasɔ na ɛhyerɛn, na ɛmaa mo ani gyei.
36 But I haue greater witnesse then the witnesse of Iohn: for the workes which the Father hath giuen me to finish, the same workes that I doe, beare witnesse of me, that the Father sent me.
“Me nnwuma a mʼAgya de ama me sɛ menyɛ no di me ho adanse sen Yohane.
37 And the Father himselfe, which hath sent me, beareth witnesse of me. Ye haue not heard his voyce at any time, neither haue ye seene his shape.
Ɛwɔ mu sɛ munhuu Agya no anim da, na montee ne nne nso da, nanso wadi me ho adanse.
38 And his worde haue you not abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye beleeued not.
Na nʼasɛm no nso mommfa nsie mo tirim, efisɛ munnnye me a ɔsomaa me no nni.
39 Searche the Scriptures: for in them ye thinke to haue eternall life, and they are they which testifie of me. (aiōnios g166)
Musua Kyerɛwsɛm no, efisɛ mugye di sɛ ɛno na ɛbɛma moanya nkwa a enni awiei. Nanso saa Kyerɛwsɛm koro no ara di me ho adanse! (aiōnios g166)
40 But ye will not come to me, that ye might haue life.
Eyi nyinaa akyi no, mommpɛ sɛ moba me nkyɛn na moanya nkwa!
41 I receiue not the prayse of men.
“Menhwehwɛ nnipa anim anuonyam.
42 But I know you, that ye haue not the loue of God in you.
Minim nnipa ko a moyɛ. Minim sɛ munni Onyankopɔn ho dɔ.
43 I am come in my Fathers Name, and ye receiue me not: if another shall come in his owne name, him will ye receiue.
Mebaa wɔ mʼAgya din mu nanso moannye me. Nanso sɛ obi ba wɔ ɔno ara ne din mu na ɔbɛyɛ nea ɔpɛ a, ɛno de, mugye no.
44 How can ye beleeue, which receiue honour one of another, and seeke not the honour that commeth of God alone?
Mopɛ sɛ nnipa kamfo mo mmom sen sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛkamfo mo. Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na moagye me adi?
45 Doe not thinke that I will accuse you to my Father: there is one that accuseth you, euen Moses, in whom ye trust.
“Ɛnyɛ me na mɛka asɛm bi atia mo wɔ Agya no anim, na mmom ɛyɛ Mose a mode mo ani too ne mmara so se ɛno na monam so bɛkɔ Onyankopɔn ahenni mu no.
46 For had ye beleeued Moses, ye would haue beleeued me: for he wrote of me.
Sɛ mugyee Mose dii a anka me nso mubegye me adi, efisɛ nsɛm a ɔkyerɛw no di me ho adanse.
47 But if ye beleeue not his writings, how shall ye beleeue my wordes?
Na esiane sɛ moannye nsɛm a ɔkyerɛw no anni no nti, ɛnyɛ nwonwa sɛ munnye me nni.”
