Luke 8
1 AND it came to pass afterwards, that he went through every city and village, preaching and publishing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God, and the twelve with him.
Yei akyi no, Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ dumienu no kyinkyinii Galilea nkuro ne nkuraa bi ase kaa Onyankopɔn Ahennie no ho asɛm.
2 And certain women who had been cured of evil spirits and sicknesses, Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven devils had gone out.
Ɔrekɔ no, nnipa a na wɔdi nʼakyi no bi ne Maria Magdalene a ɔtuu ahonhommɔne nson firii ne mu no,
3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod’s lieutenant-governor, and Susanna, and many others, who ministred to his support out of their possessions.
ne Yohana a ɔyɛ Kusa, Herode efie sohwɛfoɔ panin yere, ne Susana. Saa mmaa yi ne afoforɔ bi na wɔfiri wɔn ahonya mu hwɛɛ Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ.
4 Now when a vast multitude was collected, even those who came to him out of every city, he spake by a parable.
Ɛda bi a nnipa bebree bi firi nkuro nkuro so baa ne nkyɛn no, ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔn abɛbuo mu sɛ,
5 A sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell by the road side, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it up.
“Ɛda bi, okuafoɔ bi kɔɔ nʼafuom kɔguu aba. Ɔguiɛ no, aba no bi kɔguu ɛkwan mu maa nnipa tiatiaa so na nnomaa bɛsosɔeɛ.
6 And other seed fell on a rock, and vegetating, withered because it had no moisture.
Ebi nso kɔguu abotan so, enti ɛfifiriiɛ no, ankyɛre na ne nyinaa hyeeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, annya nsuo.
7 And other seed fell amidst thorns, and the thorns springing up with it, choked it.
Aba no bi nso kɔguu nkasɛɛ mu. Ɛfifiriiɛ no, nkasɛɛ no kyekyeree no na ɛwuiɛ.
8 And some fell on good ground, and shooting up, produced fruit an hundred fold. So saying, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Ebi nso kɔguu asase pa mu, ɛnyiniiɛ, soo aba mmɔho ɔha.” Na ɔkaa yei no, ɔka kaa ho sɛ, “Deɛ ɔwɔ aso a ɔbɛtie no, ɔntie.”
9 Then his disciples asked him, saying. What might this parable mean?
Na nʼasuafoɔ no bisaa no saa abɛbuo yi ase no,
10 And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to the rest in parables: that seeing they may not perceive, and hearing may not comprehend.
ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Mo deɛ, wɔde Onyankopɔn Ahennie ho ahintasɛm ama mo, na afoforɔ deɛ, wɔkasa kyerɛ wɔn abɛbuo mu, “‘sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a wɔbɛhwɛ, nanso wɔrenhunu na wɔbɛte, nanso wɔrente aseɛ.’
11 Now this is the parable: The seed is the word of God.
“Afei, abɛbuo no asekyerɛ ni. Aba no ne Onyankopɔn asɛm.
12 They by the road side, are such as hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh the word from their heart, that they should not be saved in believing.
Aba a ɛguu ɛkwan mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔate Onyankopɔn asɛm no na ɔbonsam bɛhwim firi wɔn akoma mu, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔrennye nni na wɔrennya nkwagyeɛ.
13 And they on the rock, are such as when they have heard, with joy embrace the word; and these have not root, who for a time believe, and in a season of trial apostasize.
Aba a ɛguu abotan so no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔte asɛm no na wɔde anigyeɛ sɔ mu, nanso ɛntim wɔn mu. Na ɛsiane wɔn gyidie a ɛsua no enti, ɛnkyɛre na asɛm no awu. Na sɛ sɔhwɛ ba wɔn so a, wɔpa aba.
14 And that which fell among thorns, are they having heard, and going away, are choked by the cares, and wealth, and pleasures of life, and bring forth no perfect fruit.
Aba a ɛguu nkasɛɛ mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔte Onyankopɔn asɛm, na wɔdi so, nanso asetena mu haw ne abɛbrɛsɛ, ahonya ne ewiase afɛfɛdeɛ enti, asɛm no ntumi nyɛ wɔn mu adwuma sɛdeɛ ɛsɛ.
15 But that on the good ground are they who having heard the word, retain it in a heart excellent and good, and bring forth fruit with patience.
Aba a ɛguu asase pa mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔde akoma pa tie asɛmpa no, na wɔdi so, gyina pintinn de abrabɔ pa di ho adanseɛ.
16 No man lighting a lamp hides it with a cover, or putteth it under a bed, but on a stand, that they who are coming in, may see the light.
“Obi nsɔ kanea na ɔmfa kɛntɛn mmutu so, anaa ɔmfa nhyɛ mpa ase na mmom, ɔde si kaneadua so na ahyerɛn ama wɔn a wɔba mu no.
17 For there is nothing hid which shall not be made manifest, nor concealed, which shall not be known and brought to light.
Deɛ ahinta no bɛda adi, na deɛ ɛwɔ kɔkoam no nso ada dwa.
18 Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, even what he seemeth to have shall be taken away from.
Enti deɛ motie no, montie no yie. Obiara a ɔwɔ no wɔbɛma no pii aka ho, na deɛ ɔnni ahe bi no, deɛ ɔsusu sɛ ɛyɛ ne dea no mpo, wɔbɛgye afiri ne nsam.”
19 Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come near him because of the crowd.
Ɛda bi, Yesu maame ne ne nuanom pɛɛ sɛ wɔne no kasa, nanso ɛsiane nnipakuo a na wɔatwa ne ho ahyia no enti, wɔantumi ne no ankasa.
20 And it was told him, saying, Thy mother and thy brethren are standing without, desirous of seeing thee.
Obi kɔka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ ne maame ne ne nuanom gyina nkyɛn hɔ baabi rehwehwɛ no.
21 Then he answered and said to them, My mother and my brethren are they, who hear the word of God, and practise it.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Me maame ne me nuanom ne wɔn a wɔtie Onyankopɔn asɛm na wɔdi so.”
22 And it came to pass on one of the days, that he went himself into a ship, and his disciples, and said unto them, Let us pass over to the farther side of the lake. And they set fail.
Ɛda bi a Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ te kodoɔ mu no, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Momma yɛntwa nkɔ asuogya nohoa.” Wɔsiim a wɔrekɔ no,
23 And while they were on the passage, he went to sleep: and a hurricane of wind rushed down on the lake; and they were filled with water, and imminent danger.
Yesu daeɛ. Saa ɛberɛ no ara mu, mframa a ano yɛ den bi bɔ maa nsuo bɛtaa kodoɔ no mu maa kodoɔ no yɛɛ sɛ ɛremem. Yei maa asuafoɔ no akoma tuu yie.
24 Then they came and awoke him, saying, Master, Master, we are perishing. Then arising, he issued his command to the wind, and the billows of water, and they subsided, and there was a calm.
Asuafoɔ no de hu ne nteateam nyanee no sɛ, “Awurade, Awurade, yɛremem!” Amonom hɔ ara, Yesu sɔre teateaa mframa a ano yɛ den ne asorɔkye no ma ɛyɛɛ dinn.
25 And he said to them, Where is your faith? And they feared and were astonished, saying one to another, Well! what a man is this! that he commands even the winds and the sea, and they obey him.
Afei, ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn na monni gyidie?” Wɔn nyinaa suroeɛ de ahodwirie bisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ. “Onipa bɛn ni a mframa a ano yɛ den ne asorɔkye mpo tie no yi?”
26 And they sailed over unto the region of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no twaa ɛpo no bɛduruu Gerasefoɔ asase a ɛne Galilea di nhwɛanimu no so.
27 And as he landed, there met him a certain man from the city, who had devils for a long while, and kept no clothes on him, and never abode in a house, but in the tombs.
Yesu firii kodoɔ no mu sii fam pɛ, ɔbarima bi a ahonhommɔne ahyɛ no ma akyɛre a ɔda adagya na ɔnte efie, na mmom ɔte amusieeɛ a aboda mu na ɔdeda no bɛhyiaa no.
28 But when he saw Jesus, roaring out, he fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God Most High? I pray thee, torment me not.
Ɔhunuu Yesu no, ɔteaam, kotoo ne nan ase sane teateaam sɛ, “Yesu, Ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn Ba, ɛdeɛn na wo ne me wɔ yɛ? Mesrɛ wo, nyɛ me ayayadeɛ biara.”
29 For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man; for many times it had seized on him; and though under a guard, and bound with chains and fetters; yet bursting the bonds, he was driven by the devil into the desert places.
Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi, ɛfiri sɛ, na Yesu ateatea ahonhommɔne no sɛ wɔmfiri ne mu. Saa ahonhommɔne yi taa ka no na sɛ wɔde ahoma kyekyere ne nsa ne ne nan mpo a, ɔtumi tete mu ma ahonhommɔne no pam no kɔ wiram.
30 Then Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? and he said, Legion: for many devils were entered into him.
Yesu bisaa no sɛ, “Wo din de sɛn?” Ɔbuaa no sɛ, “Ɛdɔm.” Ɛfiri sɛ na ahonhommɔne ahyɛ no ma.
Ahohommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔnnhyɛ wɔn mma wɔnkɔgu amanehunu bɔn no mu. (Abyssos g12)
32 Now a herd of many swine was there feeding on the mountain; and they besought him that he would permit them to enter into them. And he permitted them.
Saa ɛberɛ no mu na mprako bi redidi wɔ bepɔ no nkyɛn mu baabi. Ahohommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔmma wɔn ho ɛkwan na wɔnkɔwura mprako no mu. Na ɔmaa wɔn ho kwan.
33 Then the devils going out of the man, entered into the swine; and the herd rushed down a precipice into the lake, and was suffocated.
Enti ahonhommɔne no firii ɔbarima no mu kɔwuraa mprako no mu ma wɔbɔɔ kiridi, sianee bepɔ no kɔguu ɔtadeɛ no mu wuwuiɛ.
34 But when those who fed them saw what was done they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country places.
Wɔn a wɔhwɛ mprako no so no hunuu deɛ asi no, wɔde hu ne ahopopoɔ tutuu mmirika kɔbɔɔ amaneɛ wɔ kurom maa asɛm no trɛeɛ wɔ mpɔtam hɔ nyinaa.
35 And they came out to see what had happened; and they came to Jesus, and found the man sitting, from whom the devils were gone out, clothed, and in his sound mind, at the feet of Jesus; and they were afraid.
Nnipa a wɔtee asɛm no bɔɔ twi kɔhwɛɛ deɛ asi. Wɔduruu deɛ Yesu wɔ no, wɔhunuu ɔbarima no sɛ ne ho atɔ no a ɔfira ntoma te Yesu nkyɛn. Nnipa no nyinaa ho dwirii wɔn.
36 Then they also who had seen how the demoniac was recovered, told them.
Na wɔn a wɔhunuu ɛkwan a Yesu faa so saa ɔbarima no yadeɛ no bɔɔ wɔn a wɔbaa hɔ no amaneɛ.
37 And the whole multitude of the country around the Gadarenes, entreated him to depart from them; for they were seized with great terror: and he embarked on the vessel, and returned.
Ehu hyɛɛ Gerasefoɔ a na wɔahyia hɔ no nyinaa ma ma wɔsrɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔmfiri wɔn nkyɛn hɔ nkɔ. Yei enti, Yesu kɔtenaa kodoɔ no mu sane tware kɔɔ asuogya hɔ nohoa.
38 And the man out of whom the devils had gone, besought him to be with him; but Jesus sent him away, saying,
Ansa na Yesu rebɛfiri hɔ no, ɔbarima a ɔtuu ahonhommɔne firii ne mu no srɛɛ no sɛ ɔne no bɛkɔ. Nanso, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ,
39 Return to thy house, and declare what things God hath done for thee. And he went away, and published through the whole city what things Jesus had done for him.
“Kɔ na kɔdi deɛ Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama wo no ho adanseɛ kyerɛ wo manfoɔ.” Ɔbarima no firii hɔ kɔdii anwanwadeɛ a Yesu ayɛ ama no no ho adanseɛ kyerɛɛ kurom hɔfoɔ nyinaa.
40 And it came to pass, when Jesus returned, the people welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
Yesu duruu asuogya hɔ no, nnipakuo no de anigyeɛ hyiaa no kwan, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔatwɛn no abrɛ.
41 And, behold, there came a man whose name was Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and falling at the feet of Jesus, he entreated him to come to his house;
Ɔbarima bi a wɔfrɛ no Yairo a na ɔyɛ Yudafoɔ hyiadan mu panin baa ne nkyɛn, bɛbuu no nkotodwe, srɛɛ no sɛ, ɔne no nkɔ ne fie
42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying: and as he was going, the multitude thronged him.
na ne babaa korɔ a wadi bɛyɛ mfeɛ dumienu reyɛ awu. Ɛberɛ a Yesu rekɔ no na nnipakuo no kyere ne so.
43 And a woman, who had a flux of blood, for twelve years, who had spent all her substance on physicians, and could not get a cure from any;
Ɔbaa bi a mogya atu no mfirinhyia dumienu a obiara ntumi nsa no yadeɛ no,
44 coming behind him, touched the fringe of his garment; and instantly the flux of her blood stopped.
firii Yesu akyi sɔɔ nʼatadeɛ ano. Amonom hɔ ara, mogya a ɛtu no no twaeɛ.
45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all denied, Peter, and those who were with him, said, Master, the multitudes throng and press thee, and sayest thou, Who hath touched me?
Yesu bisaa sɛ, “Hwan na ɔsɔɔ mʼatadeɛ ano no?” Obiara buaa sɛ, ɛnyɛ ɔno. Yei maa Petro kaa sɛ, “Awurade, na sɛ nnipa no akyere wo so.”
46 Then said Jesus, Some person hath touched me, for I know that miraculous power is gone out from me.
Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Dabi, obi asɔ mʼatadeɛ mu ɛfiri sɛ, mete nka sɛ tumi bi afiri me mu.”
47 Then the woman seeing she was not hid, came trembling, and falling down before him, declared to him before all the people, for what cause she had touched him; and how she was cured instantaneously.
Ɔbaa no hunuu sɛ ɔhinta a ɛrenyɛ yie, ɛno enti, ɔde hu ne ahopopoɔ bɛbuu Yesu nkotodwe wɔ nnipa no nyinaa anim, kyerɛɛ no deɛ enti a ɔsɔɔ ne mu ne sɛdeɛ ne ho atɔ no no.
48 Then he said unto her, Be of good cheer, daughter, thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Me ba, wo gyidie ama wo ho ayɛ wo den. Fa asomdwoeɛ kɔ.”
49 And while he was yet speaking, a person came to the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead, give the master no further trouble.
Yesu gu so rekasa no, obi firi Yairo efie bɛka kyerɛɛ Yairo sɛ, “Wo babaa no anya awu enti nha Ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no bio.”
50 Then Jesus hearing it, addressed him, saying, Fear not, only believe, and she shall be saved.
Yesu tee asɛm no, ɔsee Yairo sɛ, “Nsuro, gye di, na wo babaa no bɛnyane anya nkwa.”
51 And entering into the house, he suffered no person to come in, but Peter, and James, and John, and the father and mother of the child.
Ɔduruu efie hɔ no, wamma obiara anka ne ho ankɔ ɛdan a abɔfra no da mu no mu gye Petro, Yohane, Yakobo ne abɔfra no awofoɔ nko ara.
52 Now all were weeping and lamenting her: and he said, Weep not, she is not dead, but asleep.
Na nnipa a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa resu, di awerɛhoɔ. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnsu, ɔnwuiɛ na wada.”
53 And they derided him, for they knew that she was dead.
Wɔseree no dii ne ho fɛw, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔn deɛ, wɔnim pefee sɛ wawu.
54 And he put them all without, and taking her by the hand, cried, saying, Maid, arise!
Yesu sɔɔ ne nsa ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Me ba, sɔre!”
55 And her spirit returned, and she immediately arose; and he commanded to give her something to eat.
Amonom hɔ ara, ɔsɔreeɛ na Yesu kaa sɛ wɔmma no biribi nni.
56 And her parents were struck with amazement. But he enjoined them to tell no man what was done.
Nʼawofoɔ no ho dwirii wɔn yie nanso Yesu bɔɔ wɔn ano sɛ, wɔnnka deɛ asi no nkyerɛ obiara.
