< Matthew 17 >
1 And after sixe dayes, Iesus tooke Peter, and Iames and Iohn his brother, and brought them vp into an hie mountaine apart,
Nnansia akyi no Yesu faa Petro, Yakobo ne ne nua Yohane de wɔn kɔɔ bepɔw tenten bi a so yɛ dinn atifi.
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the Sunne, and his clothes were as white as the light.
Wɔwɔ hɔ no, wohuu sɛ ne nipadua asakra ama nʼanim ahyerɛn sɛ owia, ma nʼatade ayɛ fitafita sɛ nwera.
3 And beholde, there appeared vnto them Moses, and Elias, talking with him.
Prɛko pɛ, Mose ne Elia bepuee hɔ a na wɔne Yesu rekasa.
4 Then answered Peter, and saide to Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to be here: if thou wilt, let vs make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
Petro kae se, “Awurade, ɛyɛ nwonwa sɛ yɛn nso yɛwɔ ha bi. Sɛ wopɛ a, anka mɛbɔ asese abiɛsa na mede baako ama wo, na mede baako ama Mose, na mede baako ama Elia.”
5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloude shadowed them: and beholde, there came a voyce out of the cloude, saying, This is that my beloued Sonne, in whom I am well pleased: heare him.
Petro gu so rekasa no, omununkum hann bi bɛkataa wɔn so na nne bi fi omununkum no mu kae se, “Oyi ne me Dɔba a ɔsɔ mʼani. Muntie no!”
6 And when the disciples heard that, they fell on their faces, and were sore afraide.
Asuafo no tee nne no, wɔbɔɔ hu ma wɔde wɔn anim butubutuw fam.
7 Then Iesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraide.
Yesu baa wɔn nkyɛn, besusoo wɔn mu kae se, “Monsɔre! Munnsuro!”
8 And when they lifted vp their eyes, they sawe no man, saue Iesus onely.
Wɔmaa wɔn ani so no, wɔanhu obiara sɛ Yesu nko ara.
9 And as they came downe from the moutaine, Iesus charged them, saying, Shewe the vision to no man, vntil the Sonne of man rise againe from the dead.
Ɛbaa sɛ wɔresian afi bepɔw no so no, Yesu bɔɔ wɔn ano se, “Monnka nea moahu no nkyerɛ obiara kosi sɛ menyan afi awufo mu.”
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the Scribes that Elias must first come?
Yesu asuafo no bisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na daa Yudafo mpanyin ka ti mu se, ɛsɛ sɛ Elia san ba ansa na Agyenkwa no aba?”
11 And Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Certeinely Elias must first come, and restore all thinges.
Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Nea wɔreka no wɔ mu. Ɛsɛ sɛ Elia di kan ba bɛtoto nneɛma yiye.
12 But I say vnto you that Elias is come alreadie, and they knewe him not, but haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they would: likewise shall also the Sonne of man suffer of them.
Na nokware ni, Elia aba dedaw na wɔanhu no, na dodow no ara ne no anni no yiye. Na me, Agyenkwa no nso, mehu amane wɔ wɔn nsam saa ara.”
13 Then the disciples perceiued that he spake vnto them of Iohn Baptist.
Afei asuafo no hui sɛ Osuboni Yohane ho asɛm na ɔreka no.
14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certaine man, and fell downe at his feete,
Bere a osian duu bepɔw no ase no, ohuu sɛ nnipadɔm retwɛn no. Ɔbarima bi bebuu Yesu nkotodwe kae se,
15 And saide, Master, haue pitie on my sonne: for he is lunatike, and is sore vexed: for oft times he falleth into the fire, and oft times into the water.
“Owura, hu me ba bi a otwa mmɔbɔ, efisɛ ɔwɔ ɔhaw kɛse mu. Sɛ otwa no ba a, etumi twa no hwe ogya anaa nsu mu.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not heale him.
Enti mede no brɛɛ wʼasuafo no sɛ wɔnsa no yare; nanso wɔantumi.”
17 Then Iesus answered, and said, O generation faithlesse, and crooked, how long now shall I be with you! howe long nowe shall I suffer you! bring him hither to me.
Yesu kae se, “Mo nnɛ mma asoɔdenfo a munni gyidi! Me ne mo ntena nkosi da bɛn? Momfa no mmrɛ me wɔ ha.”
18 And Iesus rebuked the deuill, and he went out of him: and the childe was healed at that houre.
Yesu teɛteɛɛ honhommɔne a ɛwɔ abarimaa no mu no ma etu fii ne mu ma amono mu hɔ ara ne ho tɔɔ no.
19 Then came the disciples to Iesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
Afei asuafo no baa Yesu nkyɛn wɔ kokoa mu bebisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na yɛantumi antu honhommɔne no?”
20 And Iesus said vnto them, Because of your vnbeliefe: for verely I say vnto you, if ye haue faith as much as is a graine of mustarde seede, ye shall say vnto this mountaine, Remooue hence to yonder place, and it shall remoue: and nothing shalbe vnpossible vnto you.
Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Efisɛ mo gyidi sua.” Ɔtoaa so se, “Sɛ mowɔ gyidi sɛ onyaa abaa esua koraa no a, anka mubetumi aka akyerɛ bepɔw yi se, ‘Tutu kɔ nohɔ!’ na ebetutu akɔ akyirikyiri.
21 Howbeit this kinde goeth not out, but by prayer and fasting.
Na saa honhommɔne a ɛte sɛɛ yi de, ɛrentumi ntu da, gye sɛ monam mpaebɔ ne mmuadadi so.”
22 And they being in Galile, Iesus said vnto them, The Sonne of man shall be deliuered into the handes of men,
Da bi a Yesu ne nʼasuafo no wɔ Galilea no, ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafo no se, “Wɔrebeyi Onipa Ba no de no ahyɛ wɔn a
23 And they shall kill him, but the thirde day shall he rise againe: and they were very sorie.
wɔwɔ tumi no nsa, na wɔakum no na ne nnansa so no, wanyan aba nkwa mu bio.” Asuafo no tee saa asɛm yi no, wɔn werɛ howee, na wɔn koma nso tui.
24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that receiued polle money, came to Peter, and sayd, Doeth not your Master pay polle money?
Bere a wobeduu Kapernaum no nso, ɛhɔ asɔre no mu towgyefo baa Petro nkyɛn bebisaa no se, “Enti wo wura tua tow?”
25 He sayd, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Iesus preuented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? Of whome doe the Kings of the earth take tribute, or polle money? of their children, or of strangers?
Petro buaa no se, “Yiw otua.” Petro fii hɔ no, ɔkɔɔ fie kɔbɔɔ Yesu amanneɛ a ɛfa towtua no ho. Yesu amma nʼano ansi koraa na obisaa no se, “Na wo Petro, wo nso wudwen ho dɛn? Ahemfo twa tow ma wɔn ara wɔn manfo tua anaasɛ wotwa ma ahɔho a wodi wɔn so no?”
26 Peter sayd vnto him, Of strangers. Then said Iesus vnto him, Then are the children free.
Petro buaa se, “Wotwa tow no ma ahɔho no.” Yesu nso buae se, “Petro mo! Ɛno de na ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔman mma no tua tow biara.
27 Neuerthelesse, lest we should offend them: goe to the sea, and cast in an angle, and take the first fish that commeth vp, and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt finde a piece of twentie pence: that take, and giue it vnto them for me and thee.
Na mmom, esiane sɛ mempɛ sɛ wɔfa yɛn ho abufuw no nti, kɔ asu no mu kɔto darewa. Apataa a wubeyi no adi kan no, bue nʼanom. Wubehu sika a ɛbɛso me ne wo tow no tua sɛ ɛhyɛ nʼanom; yi na fa kotua ma wɔn.”
