Luke 22
1 AND the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was at hand.
Afei, na Yudafoɔ Apiti Afahyɛ a wɔsane frɛ no Twam Afahyɛ no abɛn.
2 And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might destroy him; for they were afraid of the people.
Saa ɛberɛ no na asɔfoɔ mpanin ne Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no hwehwɛɛ ɛkwan a wɔbɛfa so akyere Yesu akum no, nanso ɛsiane nnipa a na wɔwɔ hɔ no enti, na wɔsuro.
3 Then entered Satan into Judas called Iscariot, though he was of the number of the twelve.
Ɔbonsam kɔwuraa Yuda a wɔfrɛ no Iskariot a ɔyɛ asuafoɔ dumienu no mu baako no mu.
4 And he went and conversed with the chief priests and the captains, by what means he could betray him unto them.
Yuda kɔɔ asɔfoɔ mpanin ne Asɔredan no mu awɛmfoɔ mpanin nkyɛn ne wɔn kɔsusuu ɛkwan ko a ɔbɛfa so ayi Yesu ama wɔn no ho.
5 And they were glad, and agreed with him to give him a sum of money.
Wɔn ani gyeeɛ, penee so sɛ wɔbɛma no sika.
6 And he gave them his promise, and sought the favourable opportunity to betray him to them, in the absence of the multitude.
Ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no, Yuda hwehwɛɛ ɛkwan a ɔbɛfa so ama wɔakyere Yesu ɛberɛ a nnipa dodoɔ biara nni ne ho.
7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, on which the passover must be killed.
Afei, da a wɔkum Twam Afahyɛ odwan de di burodo a mmɔreka nni mu no duruiɛ no,
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go, prepare for us the passover, that we may eat it.
Yesu somaa Petro ne Yohane sɛ, “Monkɔyɛ Twam Afahyɛ aduane a yɛbɛdi no.”
9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare it?
Wɔbisaa no sɛ, “Ɛhe na wopɛ sɛ yɛkɔyɛ aduane no?”
10 And he said unto them, Lo! as you are at the entrance of the city, there will a man meet you, carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whither he is going.
Ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ moduru kuro no mu a, mobɛhunu obi a wakɔ asuo reba. Monni nʼakyi nkɔ efie a ɔbɛkɔ mu no mu
11 And say to the master of that family, The teacher saith to thee, Where is the dining-room, in which I can eat the passover with my disciples?
na mommisa efiewura no sɛ, ‘Yɛn ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ se ɛhe na woasiesie ama ɔne nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ wɔmmɛdi Twam Afahyɛ aduane no?’
12 And he will shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.
Ɔde mo bɛkɔ abansoro asa kɛseɛ bi a wɔasiesie mu fɛfɛɛfɛ so. Ɛhɔ na monkɔto ɛpono no.”
13 And they going away, found it just as he had told them: and they made ready the passover.
Wɔkɔɔ kuro no mu no, wɔhunuu sɛdeɛ Yesu kaeɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ ma wɔyɛɛ Twam Afahyɛ aduane no wɔ hɔ.
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
Ɛberɛ no duruiɛ no, Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no kɔtenatenaa adidipono no ho.
15 And he said unto them, With earnest desire have I longed to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
Wɔtete hɔ no, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mepɛɛ sɛ me ne mo bɛtena ase, ato nsa adi saa Twam Afahyɛ aduane yi, ansa na mahunu amane no akyɛre.
16 for I tell you, that I will no more ever eat of it, until it shall be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
Mereka akyerɛ mo sɛ, saa adidie yi akyi no, merenni Twam Afahyɛ aduane yi bio kɔsi sɛ Onyankopɔn Ahennie no bɛba.”
17 And taking the cup, after having given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide among yourselves:
Afei Yesu faa kuruwa, daa Onyankopɔn ase na ɔde maa nʼasuafoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Monnye na obiara nnom bi.
18 for I say unto you, that I shall no more drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God come.
Mereka akyerɛ mo sɛ, merennom bobesa yi bi bio kɔsi sɛ Onyankopɔn Ahennie no bɛba.”
19 And taking a loaf, he gave thanks, and brake, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: do this in remembrance of me.
Afei, ɔfaa burodo daa Onyankopɔn ase, bubuu mu de maa nʼasuafoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Yei ne me onipadua a mede rema mo. Monnye nni. Ɛda biara a mobɛdi saa burodo yi bi no, momfa nkae me.”
20 And the cup in like manner, after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
Saa ara nso na adidie no akyi no, ɔfaa kuruwa kaa sɛ, “Kuruwa yi ne me mogya a merehwie agu ama mo sɛ apam foforɔ a wɔnam so bɛgye mo nkwa.
21 But lo! the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me at the table.
Nanso, mo a mo ne me te adidiiɛ ha yi mu baako na ɔbɛyi me ama.
22 And the Son of man indeed goeth, as is decreed: but wo to that man by whom he is betrayed!
Ɛtwa sɛ Onipa Ba no wu, sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn ahyehyɛ no, nanso deɛ ɔbɛyi no ama no deɛ, ɔnnue.”
23 And they began to question among themselves, who it could possibly be of them who should do this thing.
Asuafoɔ no bisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho, pɛɛ sɛ wɔhunu wɔn mu deɛ ɔbɛyi no ama no.
24 Now it came to pass, that there was also a contention among them, even which of them should be accounted to be the greatest.
Asuafoɔ no gyee wɔn ho akyinnyeɛ pɛɛ sɛ wɔhunu wɔn mu deɛ ɔbɛyɛ kɛseɛ wɔ Onyankopɔn Ahennie a ɛbɛba no mu.
25 And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and they who exercise authority over them are called benefactors.
Yesu teeɛ no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Ewiase deɛ, atumfoɔ hyɛ wɔn a wɔdi wɔn so no so ma wɔn nso a wɔhyɛ wɔn so no nso bu wɔn sɛ wɔn adɛɛfoɔ.
26 But ye shall not act thus: but the superior among you, let him be as the junior; and he that presideth, as he that serveth.
Nanso, mo deɛ, deɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔyɛ mo so panin no nyɛ sɛ mo mu akumaa, na deɛ ɔdi mo so no nso nyɛ mo mu ɔsomfoɔ.
27 For which is the greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that waits? is not he that sitteth at table? but I am in the midst of you as he that serveth.
Merebisa mo sɛ, nnipa baanu yi mu hwan na ɔdi ne yɔnko so, deɛ ɔte adidipono ho anaa deɛ ɔsom deɛ ɔte adidipono no ho no? Nanso, me deɛ, mewɔ mo mu sɛ mo ɔsomfoɔ.
28 Ye are they who have continued with me during my trials.
Me ne mo na afa ɔhaw ne amaneɛ mu a, moda so ne me nam.
29 And I appoint you, as my Father hath appointed me, a kingdom;
Mʼagya de Ahennie no ama me. Saa ara nso na mede rema mo.
30 that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Na mo ne me ato nsa adidi, na moatumi abu Israel mmusuakuo dumienu no atɛn.”
31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, lo! Satan hath earnestly sought you, that he might sift you as wheat:
Afei, Awurade kaa sɛ, “Simon, Simon! Monhwɛ yie na ɔbonsam pɛ sɛ ɔsɔ mo hwɛ.
32 but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith may not fail: and when thou art returned, stablish thy brethren.
Nanso, wo Simon deɛ, masrɛ ama wo, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wobɛkɔ so agye me adi. Sɛ wonu wo ho sane ba me nkyɛn a, hyɛ wo nuanom no gyidie mu den.”
33 Then he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, to prison, and to death!
Petro buaa no sɛ, “Awurade, ɛyɛ me pɛ sɛ me ne wo bɛda afiase, na sɛ ɛyɛ owu mpo nso a, me ne wo bɛwu.”
34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before thou shalt thrice deny having known me.
Yesu nso buaa no sɛ, “Petro, mereka akyerɛ wo sɛ, ɛnnɛ akokɔ remmɔn na woapa me mprɛnsa.”
35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, or scrip, or sandals, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
Afei, Yesu bisaa nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, “Ɛberɛ a mesomaa mo a na monkura sikabɔtɔ anaa akwantubɔtɔ na monhyɛ mpaboa no, biribi ho hiaa mo anaa?” Asuafoɔ no buaa no sɛ, “Dabi, biribiara ho anhia yɛn.”
36 Then said he to them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him also take a scrip: and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Afei deɛ, deɛ ɔwɔ sika no, ɔmfa; deɛ ɔwɔ akwantubɔtɔ no nso, ɔmfa. Deɛ ɔnni akofena no ntɔn ne ntoma mfa nkɔtɔ bi.
37 For I tell you, that what hath already been written must be fulfilled in me, namely, “He was numbered with the transgressors:” for the things also concerning me draw to their period.
Na berɛ aduru sɛ, nkɔm a wɔhyɛ faa me ho sɛ, ‘Wɔbɛkan no afra nnebɔneyɛfoɔ mu’ no bɛba mu. Ɛsɛ sɛ nkɔm biara a wɔahyɛ afa me ho no ba mu.”
38 Then they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords, and he said to them, It is enough.
Asuafoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Awurade, yɛwɔ akofena mmienu wɔ ha.” Yesu buaeɛ sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, ɛno ara dɔɔso.”
39 And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.
Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no firii kuro no mu kɔɔ Ngo Bepɔ no so sɛdeɛ ɔtaa yɛ no, na nʼasuafoɔ no ka ne ho.
40 And when he came to the spot, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.
Wɔduruu hɔ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, “Mommɔ mpaeɛ na moankɔ sɔhwɛ mu.”
41 And he withdrew from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeling down, he prayed,
Afei, ɔtwee ne ho firii asuafoɔ no ho kɔɔ nkyɛn baabi kɔkotoeɛ, bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ,
42 saying, Father, if thou wilt, remove this cup from me! nevertheless, not my will, but thine, be done.
“Agya, sɛ ɛyɛ wo pɛ a, ma saa amanehunu a ɛreba me so yi ntwa me ho nkɔ, nanso ɛnyɛ deɛ mepɛ, na deɛ wopɛ na ɛnyɛ”
43 And an angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.
Ɔgu so rebɔ mpaeɛ no, ɔbɔfoɔ firi ɔsoro bɛhyɛɛ no den.
44 And being in an agony, he prayed with greater intenseness: and his sweat was as clots of blood falling on the ground.
Esiane sɛ na Yesu ho yera no wɔ Honhom mu no enti, ɔmaa ne mpaeɛbɔ mu yɛɛ den maa ne ho fifire yɛɛ sɛ mogya ntowantowa sosɔ guu fam.
45 And when he rose up from prayer, on coming to his disciples, he found them sleeping from sorrow.
Mpaeɛbɔ no akyi no, ɔkɔɔ asuafoɔ no nkyɛn kɔtoo wɔn sɛ awerɛhoɔ ne ɔbrɛ enti, wɔadeda.
46 And he said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise up, and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.
Ɔkɔtoo wɔn sɛ wɔadeda no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Hwɛ! Moadeda? Monsɔre na mommɔ mpaeɛ na moankɔ sɔhwɛ mu.”
47 And while he was yet speaking, behold a multitude, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and approached Jesus to kiss him.
Yesu gu so rekasa no, nnipadɔm bi a Yuda Iskariot a ɔyɛ asuafoɔ dumienu no mu baako di wɔn anim, baa ne so. Yuda Iskariot twe bɛn Yesu yɛɛ no atuu.
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
Yesu bisaa no sɛ, “Yuda, ɔdɔ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ yi so na wonam reyi Onipa Ba no ama?”
49 Then when they who were about him saw what was ready to happen, they said unto him, Lord, shall we strike with the sword?
Ɛberɛ a asuafoɔ a wɔwɔ ne ho no hunuu deɛ ɛreba no, wɔbisaa no sɛ, “Awurade, yɛntwitwa wɔn akofena anaa?”
50 And one of them struck at a servant of the high-priest, and cut off his right ear.
Asuafoɔ no mu baako twaa Ɔsɔfopanin no ɔsomfoɔ no aso nifa.
51 Then Jesus, addressing them, said, Permit me thus far: and touching his ear, he healed him.
Yesu ampɛ deɛ osuani no yɛeɛ no enti, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnyae deɛ mopɛ sɛ moyɛ no.” Ɔfaa ɔsomfoɔ no aso no de taree hɔ bio.
52 Then said Jesus to the chief priests and captains of the temple, and to the elders who were come forth against him, Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and staves?
Yesu bisaa asɔfoɔ mpanin ne asɔredan sohwɛfoɔ mpanin ne Yudafoɔ mpanimfoɔ ne asomfoɔ a wɔbaa ne so no sɛ, “Meyɛ odwotwafoɔ na mode akofena ne nkontimmaa aba me so?
53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched out no hands upon me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
Ɛberɛ a na me ne mo wɔ asɔredan mu no, moankye me; afei na mo berɛ aso a ɔbonsam nam ne tumi so reyɛ adwuma ampa.”
54 Then seizing upon him, they led him away, and brought him into the palace of the high-priest. But Peter followed at a distance.
Afei, wɔkyeree Yesu de no kɔɔ Ɔsɔfopanin efie. Ɛberɛ a wɔde no rekɔ no, Petro gyee ne ho kaa akyi.
55 And as they had lighted a fire in the middle of the hall, and had seated themselves in a company, Peter sat down in the midst of them.
Petro duruu Ɔsɔfopanin no efie hɔ no, na asraafoɔ no asɔ ogya wɔ adihɔ hɔ a wɔreto; ɔno nso kɔtoo bi.
56 But a certain maid-servant who sat at the fire, eyeing him, and looking at him stedfastly, said, This man was also with him.
Abaayewa bi hunuu Petro sɛ ɔreto ogya no bi no, ɔhwɛɛ no dinn kaa sɛ, “Saa ɔbarima yi yɛ Yesu akyidifoɔ no mu baako.”
57 But he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
Petro sanee sɛ, “Awuraa, mennim saa ɔbarima yi baabiara.”
58 And after a little while another seeing him, said, Surely thou art one of them. Then said Peter, Man, I am not.
Ankyɛre koraa na obi foforɔ nso hunuu no kaa sɛ, “Woyɛ nʼakyidifoɔ no mu baako.” Petro buaa no sɛ, “Dabi, menka wɔn ho.”
59 And at about an hour’s distance, another person strongly asserted, saying, Of a certainty this fellow was also with him: for he too is a Galilean.
Ɛbɛyɛ dɔnhwereɛ akyi no, obi foforɔ nso sane hunuu no ka sii so dua sɛ, “Akyinnyeɛ biara nni ho sɛ saa damfo yi ka Yesu asuafoɔ no ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno nso yɛ Galileani, na ne kasa koraa da no adi.”
60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And instantly, while he was yet speaking, the cock crew.
Petro sanee ne mprɛnsa so sɛ, “Owura, asɛm a woreka yi nyɛ nokorɛ.” Nʼano ansi koraa na akokɔ bɔneeɛ.
61 And the Lord, turning round, looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, That before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
Saa ɛberɛ no ara mu na Yesu twaa nʼani hwɛɛ Petro anim. Ɛhɔ ara na Petro kaee asɛm a Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ, akokɔ remmɔn na woapa me mprɛnsa” no,
62 And Peter going without, wept bitterly.
Petro de awerɛhoɔ firii adi kɔsuiɛ.
63 And the men who held Jesus insulted him, beating him with rods;
Mmarima a na wɔrewɛn Yesu no dii ne ho fɛw, kyekyeree nʼani, bobɔɔ no,
64 and blindfolding him, smote him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is he that struck thee?
sane bisaa no sɛ, “Odiyifoɔ, hwan na ɔbɔɔ wo? Kyerɛ yɛn.”
65 And many other things, blaspheming, spake they against him.
Wɔkɔɔ so yeyaa no kaa abususɛm ahodoɔ guu ne so.
66 And when the day broke, the elders of the people and the chief priests and scribes assembled, and brought him into their sanhedrim, saying,
Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, Yudafoɔ mpanin ne Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no hyiaeɛ maa wɔde Yesu baa wɔn anim
67 If thou art the Messiah, tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
bisaa no sɛ, “Sɛ wone Kristo no a, ka kyerɛ yɛn.” Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ meka sɛ mene Kristo no a, morennye nni,
68 and if I shall ask you any question, ye will neither answer me, nor let me go free.
na sɛ mebisa mo nso a, moremmua me.
69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit at the right hand of the power of God.
Na ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ yi mobɛhunu Onipa Ba no sɛ ɔte Onyame Otumfoɔ no nifa so.”
70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Yourselves say that I am.
Ɔkaa saa no, wɔn nyinaa bisaa no bio sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ na wone Onyankopɔn Ba no anaa?” Ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Deɛ moreka no yɛ nokorɛ.”
71 Then they said, What further need have we of witness? for we have heard it from his own mouth.
Yei ma wɔkaa sɛ, “Adanseɛ bɛn na ɛhia yɛn bio? Yɛate afiri ɔno ankasa anom.”
