Luke 6
1 And it came to pass, on a Sabbath, as He is going through the grainfields, that His disciples were plucking the ears, and were eating, rubbing with the hands,
Homeda bi a Yesu ne nʼasuafo no nam aburowfuw bi mu no asuafo no pempan aburow no bi huan, wee.
2 and certain of the Pharisees said to them, “Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbaths?”
Farisifo bi bisaa no se, “Adɛn na moyɛ ade a etia Homeda ho mmara a wɔahyɛ no?”
3 And Jesus answering said to them, “Did you not read even this that David did when he hungered, himself and those who are with him,
Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Monkenkan nea Ɔhene Dawid yɛɛ bere a ɔkɔm dee ɔne wɔn a wɔka ne ho no wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu ana?
4 how he went into the house of God, and took the Bread of the Presentation, and ate, and gave also to those with him, which it is not lawful to eat, except only to the priests?”
Ɔkɔɔ asɔredan mu kɔfaa brodo a wɔde abɔ afɔre ama Onyankopɔn a mmara mma ho kwan sɛ obi di, gye asɔfo nko ara no, de bi maa wɔn a wɔka ne ho no nso dii.”
5 And He said to them, “The Son of Man is Lord also of the Sabbath.”
Yesu kae se, “Onipa Ba no ne Homeda no wura.”
6 And it came to pass also, on another Sabbath, that He goes into the synagogue, and teaches, and there was there a man, and his right hand was withered,
Homeda foforo bi nso a Yesu rekyerɛkyerɛ wɔ asɔredan mu no, na ɔbarima bi a ne nsa nifa awu nso wɔ hɔ bi.
7 and the scribes and the Pharisees were watching Him, if on the Sabbath He will heal, that they might find an accusation against Him.
Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo ne Farisifo no hwɛɛ Yesu komm sɛ ɔbɛsa onipa yi yare Homeda yi nso ana. Nea na wɔrehwehwɛ ara ne sɛ obebu mmara no so asa yare na wɔn nsa aka no akyere no.
8 And He Himself had known their reasonings and said to the man having the withered hand, “Rise, and stand in the midst”; and he having risen, stood.
Yesu huu wɔn adwene nanso ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no se, “Sɔre begyina anim ha, na obiara nhu wo.” Ɔbarima no sɔre begyinaa hɔ.
9 Then Jesus said to them, “I will question you something: is it lawful on the Sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? To save life or to kill?”
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Merebisa mo. Dɛn na mmara no ma ho kwan sɛ yɛnyɛ no Homeda; sɛ yɛbɛyɛ papa anaa yɛbɛyɛ bɔne, sɛ yebegye obi nkwa anaasɛ yɛbɛma wawu?”
10 And having looked around on them all, He said to the man, “Stretch forth your hand”; and he did so, and his hand was restored whole as the other;
Yesu hwɛɛ wɔn nyinaa hyiae na ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no se, “Teɛ wo nsa.” Na ɔteɛɛ ne nsa no, emu yɛɛ den sɛ baako no.
11 and they were filled with madness, and were speaking with one another what they might do to Jesus.
Nea Yesu yɛe yi hyɛɛ nnipa no abufuw yiye ma wofii ase bɔɔ ne ho pɔw.
12 And it came to pass in those days, He went forth to the mountain to pray, and was passing the night in the prayer of God,
Da bi a Yesu kɔɔ bepɔw bi so sɛ ɔrekɔbɔ mpae no ɔbɔɔ mpae anadwo mu no nyinaa
13 and when it became day, He called near His disciples, also having chosen twelve from them, whom He also named apostles:
Ade kyee no ɔfrɛɛ nʼakyidifo no nyinaa baa ne nkyɛn na ɔpaw wɔn mu dumien. Saa dumien yi na ɔfrɛɛ wɔn asomafo.
14 Simon, whom He also named Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
Wɔn din na edidi so yi: Simon, a ɔtoo ne din Petro; Andrea, Simon nua; Yakobo, Yohane, Filipo, Bartolomeo,
15 Matthew and Thomas, James of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zealot,
Mateo, Toma, Yakobo a ɔyɛ Alfeo ba; Simon, a wɔfrɛ no Selote;
16 Judas of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became betrayer.
Yuda a ɔyɛ Yakobo ba; ne Yuda Iskariot a oyii Yesu mae no.
17 And having come down with them, He stood on a level spot; and a crowd of His disciples, and a great multitude of the people from all Judea, and Jerusalem, and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon,
Yesu fii bepɔw no so sian baa fam maa nʼakyidifo bebree ne nnipakuw a wofi Yudea, Yerusalem ne mpoano nkurow Tiro ne Sidon mu no betwaa ne ho hyiae.
18 who came to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases, [gathered]. And those harassed by unclean spirits [also gathered] and were healed.
Wɔbae sɛ wɔrebetie no ama wasa wɔn nyarewa nso. Otuu ahonhommɔne bebree.
19 And all the multitude were seeking to touch Him, because power was going forth from Him, and He was healing all.
Obiara bɔɔ mmɔden sɛ ɔde ne nsa bɛka Yesu. Ayarefo a wɔde wɔn nsa kaa Yesu no nyinaa ho tɔɔ wɔn.
20 And He, having lifted up His eyes to His disciples, said: “Blessed the poor—because yours is the Kingdom of God.
Afei ɔdan nʼani ka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafo no se, “Nhyira ne mo a moyɛ ahiafo, na mo na Onyankopɔn ahenni no yɛ mo dea!
21 Blessed those hungering now—because you will be filled. Blessed those weeping now—because you will laugh.
Nhyira ne mo a ɔkɔm de mo, na mo na wɔbɛma mo amee. Nhyira ne mo a mo werɛ ahow, na mo na wɔbɛma mo ani agye.
22 Blessed are you when men will hate you, and when they will separate you, and will reproach, and will cast forth your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake—
Nhyira ne mo a me din nti, nnipa tan mo, na wɔpa mo na wɔyaw mo, na wogu mo din ho fi.
23 rejoice in that day, and leap, for behold, your reward [is] great in Heaven, for according to these things were their fathers doing to the prophets.
“Sɛ ɛba saa a, momma mo ani nnye na munni ahurusi! Munni ahurusi, efisɛ mo akatua retwɛn mo wɔ ɔsoro. Na saa ara nso na wɔn agyanom yɛɛ tete adiyifo no.
24 But woe to you—the rich, because you have gotten your comfort.
“Na mo adefo de, munnue efisɛ nea ɛma mo ani gye no, mo nsa aka dedaw; eyi nti munni kyɛfa biara bio.
25 Woe to you who have been filled—because you will hunger. Woe to you who are laughing now—because you will mourn and weep.
Munnue, mo a moamee mprempren, na mo na ɔkɔm bɛde mo! Munnue, mo a moreserew mprempren, na mo na mubesi apini asu.
26 Woe to you when all men will speak well of you—for according to these things were their fathers doing to false prophets.
Munnue, mo a nnipa kamfo mo, efisɛ saa ara na wɔn nenanom kamfoo atoro adiyifo no.”
27 But I say to you who are hearing, love your enemies, do good to those hating you,
“Mereka akyerɛ mo a moretie me no nyinaa se monnɔ mo atamfo; monyɛ wɔn a wɔtan mo no papa.
28 bless those cursing you, pray for those maligning you;
Munhyira wɔn a wɔdome mo; mommɔ mpae mma wɔn a wɔtan mo.
29 and to him striking you on the cheek, give also the other, and from him taking away from you the mantle, also the coat you may not keep back.
Sɛ obi bɔ wʼasom a, dan baako a aka no ma no. Sɛ obi pa wo ntama a, worɔw wʼatade ka ho.
30 And to everyone who is asking of you, be giving; and from him who is taking away your goods, do not be asking again;
Sɛ obi srɛ wo biribi a, fa ma no. Obi gye wʼade a, mmisa no bio.
31 and as you wish that men may do to you, do also to them in like manner;
Na nea mopɛ sɛ nnipa nyɛ mo no, mo nso monyɛ wɔn saa ara.
32 and—if you love those loving you, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful love those loving them;
“Na sɛ modɔ wɔn a wɔdɔ mo no nko ara a, mfaso bɛn na mubenya? ‘Nnebɔneyɛfo’ nso dɔ wɔn a wɔdɔ wɔn no.
33 and if you do good to those doing good to you, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful do the same;
Na sɛ moyɛ wɔn a wɔyɛ mo papa no nko ara yiye a, mfaso bɛn na mubenya? Nnebɔneyɛfo mpo yɛ wɔn a wɔyɛ wɔn papa no nso yiye.
34 and if you lend [to those] of whom you hope to receive back, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful lend to sinners—that they may receive again as much.
Na sɛ mobɔ wɔn a mususuw sɛ wobetumi atua no nko ara bosea a, papa bɛn na moayɛ? Nnebɔneyɛfo nso bobɔbobɔ wɔn ho wɔn ho bosea, a wɔhwɛ sɛ wɔn nsa bɛka wɔn sika bio.
35 But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Highest, because He is kind to the ungracious and evil;
Monnɔ mo atamfo. Monyɛ wɔn papa. Momma wɔn nea ehia wɔn a, mo ani nni akyi bio. Na sɛ moyɛ eyinom a mo akatua bɛyɛ kɛse wɔ ɔsoro na moayɛ Onyankopɔn mma; efisɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ nnebɔneyɛfo adɔe, na ɔdom bonniayɛfo nso.
36 be therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful.
Monyɛ mmɔborɔhunufo sɛnea mo Agya a ɔwɔ ɔsoro no yɛ mmɔborɔhunufo no.
37 And do not judge, and you may not be judged; do not condemn, and you may not be condemned; release, and you will be released.
“Mummmu ntɛn, na wɔammu mo ntɛn; mummmu fɔ, na wɔammu mo fɔ; momfa nkyɛ, na wɔde akyɛ mo.
38 Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed, and shaken, and running over, they will give into your bosom; for with that measure with which you measure, it will be measured to you again.”
Sɛ moma a, wɔbɛhyɛ mo anan mu. Nea mode ma no, wɔde susudua a wɔahyɛ no ma, amia so ama abu so na ebesusuw ama mo. Susudua a mode besusuw ama no, ɛno ara na wɔde besusuw ama mo.”
39 And He spoke an allegory to them, “Is blind able to lead blind? Will they not both fall into a pit?
Yesu nam mmebu so kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn bio se, “Onifuraefo betumi akyerɛ onifuraefo kwan ama ayɛ yiye ana? Sɛ ɛba saa a, wɔn baanu nyinaa bɛtɔ amoa mu.
40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone perfected will be as his teacher.
Osuani nsen ne wura. Nanso sɛ ɔyere ne ho sua nea wɔrekyerɛ no no yiye a ɔbɛsɛ ne wura no.
41 And why do you behold the speck that is in your brother’s eye, and do not consider the beam that [is] in your own eye?
“Adɛn nti na wohwɛ dua ntɛtɛ a ɛda wo nua ani so, bere a mpuran a ɛda wo de so no mfa wo ho?
42 Or how are you able to say to your brother, Brother, permit, I may take out the speck that [is] in your eye—yourself not beholding the beam in your own eye? Hypocrite, first take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that [is] in your brother’s eye.
Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na woatumi aka akyerɛ wo nua se, ‘Ma minhuw dua ntɛtɛ a ɛda wʼani so no mma wo,’ wɔ bere a mpuran a ɛda wʼani so no mfa wo ho. Nyaatwom, di kan yi mpuran a ɛda wʼani so no ansa na woatumi ahuw ntɛtɛ a ɛda wo nua ani so no ama no.
43 For there is not a good tree making bad fruit, nor a bad tree making good fruit;
“Dua pa nsow aba bɔne, na dua bɔne nso nsow aba pa.
44 for each tree is known from its own fruit, for they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they crop a grape from a bramble.
Dua biara aba na wɔnam so hu dua ko a ɛyɛ. Worentumi ntew borɔdɔma mfi nware so.
45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which [is] good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which [is] evil; for out of the abounding of the heart his mouth speaks.
Onipa pa fi nnepa a ɛwɔ ne koma mu yɛ ade pa. Saa ara nso na onipa bɔne nso fi ne nnebɔne a ɛwɔ ne koma mu yɛ ade bɔne. Nea ahyɛ onipa koma ma no, na epue fi nʼano.
46 And why do you call Me, Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say?
“Adɛn nti na mofrɛ me ‘Awurade,’ nanso munni mʼasɛm so?
47 Everyone who is coming to Me, and is hearing My words, and is doing them, I will show you to whom he is like:
Merekyerɛ mo sɛnea onipa biara a ɔba me nkyɛn, na otie mʼasɛm di so no te.
48 he is like to a man building a house, who dug and deepened, and laid a foundation on the rock, and a flood having come, the stream broke forth on that house, and was not able to shake it, for it had been founded on the rock.
Ɔte sɛ obi a na ɔresi dan na ɔtoo ne dan no fapem ma esii ɔbotan so. Na osu tɔ maa nsu no yiri bɛbɔ faa ɔdan no ase nanso ammu, efisɛ osi sii ɔbotan so.
49 And he who heard and did not, is like to a man having built a house on the earth, without a foundation, against which the stream broke forth, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house became great.”
Na nea ɔte mʼasɛm na onni so no te sɛ obi a ɔresi dan, na osii dan no sii nwea so, na osu tɔ maa nsu no yiri bɛbɔ faa ase ma edwiriw sɛee pasaa.”
