< Acts 3 >

1 NOW at that time Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth;
Ɛda bi Petro ne Yohane kɔɔ asɔredan mu awia nnɔnmiɛnsa a ɛyɛ ɛberɛ a wɔde bɔ mpaeɛ.
2 when a certain man who was lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple called Beautiful, to ask alms of those who were entering into the temple;
Wɔreyɛ aduru asɔredan ɛpono a wɔfrɛ no Ɛpono Fɛɛfɛ ano no, wɔhunuu obubuafoɔ bi sɛ ɔda hɔ. Na wɔsoa saa obubuafoɔ yi de no bɛto ɛpono yi ano da biara ma ɔsrɛsrɛ sika firi wɔn a wɔrekɔ asɔredan no mu no nkyɛn.
3 who seeing Peter and John just going into the temple, asked to receive alms.
Ɛberɛ a ɔhunuu sɛ Petro ne Yohane rekɔ mu no, ɔsrɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔmma no biribi.
4 Then Peter fixing his eves stedfastly on him with John, said, Look on us.
Wɔhwɛɛ nʼanim dinn na Petro ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hwɛ yɛn!”
5 So he attentively regarded them, expecting to receive something from them.
Ɔhwɛɛ wɔn susuu sɛ wɔbɛma no biribi.
6 Then said Peter, I have neither silver nor gold; but what I have, that I give thee: By the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarean, arise, and walk!
Nanso, Petro ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sika de, menni bi; na deɛ mewɔ a mede bɛma wo ne sɛ, Yesu Kristo Nasareni din mu, sɔre nante!”
7 And taking him by the right hand, he raised him up: and immediately his feet and ancles were restored to strength.
Afei, Petro de ne nsa nifa sɔɔ ne mu maa ne so gyinaa hɔ. Prɛko pɛ, ne nan no mu yɛɛ den.
8 And springing up he stood on his feet, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
Ɔhuri gyinaa ne nan so, na ɔhyɛɛ aseɛ nanteeɛ. Afei, ɔne wɔn nyinaa kɔɔ asɔredan no mu a ɔrehurihuri, rekamfo Onyankopɔn.
9 And all the people beheld him walking and praising God:
Nnipa no nyinaa hunuu no sɛ ɔnam reyi Onyankopɔn ayɛ.
10 and they took notice of him, that it was the same person who had sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with astonishment and amazed at what had happened to him.
Wɔhunuu no no, wohunuu sɛ ɔno ne ɔdesrɛni a na ɔda asɔredan ɛpono a wɔfrɛ no Ɛpono Fɛɛfɛ no ano no, wɔn ho dwirii wɔn.
11 But as the lame man that was cured held fast Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them into the portico called Solomon’s, in vast amazement.
Ɛberɛ a nnipa no hunuu sɛ ɔbarima no ne Petro ne Yohane nam no, wɔn ho dwirii wɔn; enti wɔtuu mmirika kɔɔ wɔn nkyɛn, wɔ baabi a wɔfrɛ no Salomo Abrannaa no so hɔ.
12 Then Peter observing it, addressed himself to the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why gaze ye upon us, as if by our own power or piety we had enabled this man to walk?
Ɛberɛ a Petro hunuu nnipadɔm no no, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Israelfoɔ, adɛn na yei yɛ mo nwanwa? Adɛn enti na mohwɛ yɛn, susu sɛ yɛnam yɛn tumi anaa yɛn som pa so na asa ɔbarima yi yadeɛ?
13 The God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.
Abraham, Isak ne Yakob Onyankopɔn ne yɛn nananom Onyankopɔn ama ne ɔsomfoɔ Yesu ɔsoro animuonyam. Mode no maa atumfoɔ; na ɛberɛ a Pilato yɛɛ sɛ ɔbɛgyaa no no mpo, mopoo no wɔ nʼanim.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and besought that a man, a murderer, might as a favour be given unto you;
Na ɔyɛ Kronkron, ɔtene; nanso mopoo no na mosrɛɛ Pilato sɛ ɔmfa odwotwafoɔ mma mo.
15 but ye slew the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead: of which we are witnesses.
Enti, mokumm obi a ɔgye nnipa kɔ nkwa mu. Nanso, Onyankopɔn nyanee no firii awufoɔ mu na yɛyɛ yei ho adansefoɔ.
16 And through faith in his name hath his name restored this man to strength, whom ye behold and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the sight of you all.
Tumi a ɛwɔ ne din mu no na ɛmaa saa obubuafoɔ yi nyaa ahoɔden. Gyidie a yɛwɔ wɔ ne din mu no na ɛmaa yɛtumi yɛɛ saa anwanwadeɛ a mohunu yi. Gyidie a yɛwɔ wɔ Yesu din mu no na ama ne ho atɔ no a ɔgyina mo anim seesei yi.
17 And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did this deed, as did also your rulers.
“Afei, me nuanom, menim sɛ deɛ mo ne mo mpanimfoɔ yɛɛ Yesu no, na ɔnim na monnim.
18 But the things which God before announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Messiah should suffer, he hath thus fulfilled.
Tete no, Onyankopɔn nam nʼadiyifoɔ so kaa sɛ Agyenkwa no bɛhunu amane. Na ɔnam saa ɛkwan yi so maa ɛbaa mu.
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when refreshing seasons shall come from the presence of the Lord;
Monnu mo ho na monni Onyankopɔn akyi, na ɔde mo bɔne akyɛ mo,
20 and he will send Jesus Christ, who was before preached unto you:
sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, Awurade Honhom mu ahoɔden bɛba na wasoma Yesu a ɔyɛ Agyenkwa no a wayi no ama mo dada no.
21 whom the heaven indeed must receive, until the times of restoration of all things, which God hath spoken of by the mouth of all his holy prophets from the beginning of the world. (aiōn g165)
Sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn nam nʼadiyifoɔ kronkron so aka dada no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtena ɔsoro kɔsi sɛ nneɛma nyinaa bɛyɛ foforɔ. (aiōn g165)
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, “A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like myself; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall speak to you.
Na Mose kaa sɛ, ‘Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn bɛsoma odiyifoɔ aba mo nkyɛn sɛdeɛ ɔsomaa me a mefiri mo mu no. Ɛsɛ sɛ motie asɛm biara a ɔbɛka akyerɛ mo.
23 But it shall come to pass, that every soul which will not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly exterminated from amidst the people.”
Obiara a wantie deɛ odiyifoɔ no bɛka no, wɔbɛyi no afiri Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ ho na wɔasɛe no.’
24 And all the prophets indeed from Samuel, and those who succeeded him, as many as have spoken, have also foretold those days.
“Samuel ne adiyifoɔ a akyire no wɔbaeɛ no nyinaa nso aka asɛm a asi ɛnnɛ yi ho asɛm pɛn.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And “in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.”
Onyankopɔn bɔ a ɔnam adiyifoɔ so hyɛeɛ no yɛ mo dea. Saa ara nso na mowɔ kyɛfa wɔ apam a Onyankopɔn ne mo agyanom pameeɛ no mu. Sɛdeɛ ɔka kyerɛɛ Abraham sɛ, ‘Wʼasefoɔ so na menam mɛhyira ewiasefoɔ nyinaa.’
26 Unto you in the first instance, hath God, after raising up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, to the end that every one of you should turn away from your iniquities.
Enti, Onyankopɔn dii ɛkan yii ne ɔsomfoɔ somaa no baa mo nkyɛn sɛ ɔmmɛdom mo na mo nyinaa nnane mfiri mo akwammɔne no so.”
