Mark 7
1 And gathered together to Him are the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, having come from Jerusalem,
Da bi, Farisifo ne Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo bi a wofi Yerusalem baa Yesu nkyɛn.
2 and having seen certain of His disciples with defiled hands—that is, unwashed—eating bread, they found fault;
Woduu hɔ no, wohuu sɛ nʼasuafo no bi redidi a wɔanhohoro wɔn nsa ho.
3 for the Pharisees, and all the Jews, if they do not wash the hands to the wrist, do not eat, holding the tradition of the elders,
Na Yudafo no, ne titiriw no Farisifo nnidi da, gye sɛ wɔahohoro wɔn nsa ho nyinaa, sɛnea wɔn amanne kyerɛ, ansa na wɔadidi.
4 and [coming] from the marketplace, if they do not immerse themselves, they do not eat; and many other things there are that they received to hold, immersions of cups, and pots, and bronze vessels, and couches.
Na sɛ wofi gua so ba a, wɔhohoro wɔn nsa ansa na wɔadidi. Eyi yɛ mmara bebree a wofi tete adi so no mu baako. Na mmara no bi ne sɛ, wɔhohoro nkuruwa, asɛn ne kɔberesɛn mu.
5 Then the Pharisees and the scribes question Him, “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat the bread with unwashed hands?”
Enti Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo no bisaa Yesu se, “Adɛn nti na wʼasuafo no nni yɛn amanne a efi tete no so? Efisɛ wodidi a, wonni kan nhohoro wɔn nsa sɛnea amanne kyerɛ no.”
6 And He answering said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, hypocrites, as it has been written: This people honors Me with the lips, and their heart is far from Me;
Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Mo nyaatwomfo! Asɛm a Yesaia ka faa mo ho sɛ, “‘Saa nnipa yi de wɔn ano na edi me ni, nanso wɔn koma mmɛn me ho baabiara.
7 and in vain they worship Me, teaching teachings, commands of men;
Wɔsom me kwa; na wɔn nkyerɛkyerɛ yɛ nnipa nsa ano mmara’ yɛ nokware turodoo!
8 for having put away the command of God, you hold the tradition of men, immersions of pots and cups; and many other such like things you do.”
Mugyaw Onyankopɔn mmara a wahyehyɛ no de mo ankasa mo amanne si anan mu.
9 And He said to them, “Well do you put away the command of God that you may keep your tradition;
“Moahyɛ da sɛ mobɛpo Onyankopɔn mmara no, na moatiatia so, ama mo amanne no atim.
10 for Moses said, Honor your father and your mother; and, He who is speaking evil of father or mother—let him die the death;
Ɛho nhwɛso bi ne sɛ, Mose de Onyankopɔn mmara a ɛka se, ‘Di wʼagya ne wo na ni’ no maa mo. Ɔkae se, ‘obiara a ɔbɛkasa atia nʼagya anaa ne na no, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum no.’
11 and you say, If a man may say to father or to mother, Korban (that is, a gift), [is] whatever you may be profited out of mine,
Nanso moka se, eye sɛ obi bɛka akyerɛ nʼagya anaa ne na a ade bi hia no no se, ‘Merentumi mmoa mo! Efisɛ mede nea anka a ɛsɛ sɛ mede ma mo no ama Onyankopɔn.’
12 and you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or for his mother,
Enti mubu Onyankopɔn mmara a ɔhyɛe no so, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mubetumi abɔ mo amanne ho ban.
13 setting aside the word of God for your tradition that you delivered; and many such like things you do.”
Eyi yɛ nhwɛso baako pɛ. Nanso bebree ka ho.”
14 And having called near all the multitude, He said to them, “Listen to Me, you all, and understand;
Afei Yesu frɛɛ nnipakuw no baa ne nkyɛn, ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mo nyinaa muntie asɛm a mereka yi yiye, na monte ase.
15 there is nothing from outside the man entering into him that is able to defile him, but the things coming out from him, those are the things defiling the man.
Ade biara a ɛkɔ onipa mu no ngu ne ho fi. Na mmom nea ebefi onipa mu aba no na egu ne ho fi.
16 [[If any has ears to hear—let him hear.”]]
Nea ɔwɔ aso a obetie no ntie.”
17 And when He entered into a house from the multitude, His disciples were questioning Him about the allegory,
Afei Yesu fii nnipakuw no mu kɔɔ fie no, nʼasuafo no bisaa no asɛm a ɔkae no ase.
18 and He says to them, “So also you are without understanding! Do you not perceive that nothing from outside entering into the man is able to defile him?
Obisaa wɔn se, “Mo nso monte asɛm a mekae no ase? Munhu sɛ, nea mudi no ngu mo ho fi ana?
19 Because it does not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and into the drain it goes out, purifying all the meats.”
Efisɛ nea mudi biara no ne mo koma nni hwee yɛ, na mmom ɛfa ɔyafunu no mu kɛkɛ.”
20 And He said, “That which is coming out from the man, that defiles the man;
Ɔtoaa so se, “Nea efi onipa mu ba no na egu ne ho fi.
21 for from within, out of the heart of men, the evil reasonings come forth, adulteries, whoredoms, murders,
Afei nea efi nnipa koma mu ba no, ɛde aguamammɔ, korɔn, awudi,
22 thefts, covetous desires, wickedness, deceit, arrogance, an evil eye, slander, pride, foolishness;
ayefasɛm, amumɔyɛ, asisi, ahohwi, anibere, abususɛm, ahantan ne nkwaseasɛm ba.
23 all these evils come forth from within, and they defile the man.”
Saa nnebɔne yi nyinaa fi onipa mu na ɛba, na ɛno na egu onipa ho fi a ɛmma ɔmfata Onyankopɔn anim.”
24 And from there having risen, He went away to the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and having entered into the house, He wished none to know, and He was not able to be hid,
Yesu fi hɔ no, ɔkɔɔ Tiro ne Sidon fam pɛɛ sɛ ɔrekɔhyɛ hɔ komm a obiara nte ne nka, nanso anyɛ ye. Da a oduu hɔ ara pɛ, na nkurɔfo tee ne nka sɛ waba hɔ.
25 for a woman having heard about Him, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having come, fell at His feet—
Ɛhɔ ara na ɔbea bi a honhommɔne hyɛ ne babea ketewa bi mu baa ne nkyɛn. Na wate Yesu nka nti, obebuu no nkotodwe.
26 and the woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by nation—and was asking Him that He may cast forth the demon out of her daughter.
Ɔbea no srɛɛ no sɛ ontu saa honhommɔne no mfi ne ba no mu mma no. Na saa ɔbea yi yɛ Helani a wɔwoo no wɔ Siro-Foinike.
27 And Jesus said to her, “First permit the children to be filled, for it is not good to take the children’s bread, and to cast [it] to the little dogs.”
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ mma no mee ansa. Na enye sɛ wɔde mma aduan ma akraman.”
28 And she answered and says to Him, “Yes, Lord; for the little dogs under the table also eat of the children’s crumbs.”
Ɔbea no nso buae no se, “Owura, ɛyɛ nokware de, nanso ɛyɛ a wɔde aduan a aka wɔ mmofra no prɛte mu no bi ma akraman a wɔhyehyɛ ɔpon no ase no.”
29 And He said to her, “Because of this word, go; the demon has gone forth out of your daughter”;
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wo mmuae pa no nti masa wo babea no yare. Kɔ fie. Honhommɔne no afi ne mu kɔ.”
30 and having come away to her house, she found the demon gone forth, and the daughter laid on the bed.
Oduu fie no, ohuu sɛ ne babea no da mpa so dinn a honhommɔne no afi ne mu ampa ara.
31 And again, having gone forth from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, He came to the Sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis,
Yesu fi Tiro no, ɔfaa Sidon mansin a emu nkurow yɛ du no so beduu Galilea Po so.
32 and they bring to Him a deaf, stuttering man, and they call on Him that He may put the hand on him.
Wɔde ɔsotifo bi a ɔsan yɛ mum brɛɛ no. Wɔn a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa srɛɛ Yesu sɛ, ɔmfa ne nsa nka ɔyarefo no, na ɔnsa no yare.
33 And having taken him away from the multitude by Himself, He put His fingers to his ears, and having spit, He touched his tongue,
Yesu soo ne mu de no fii nnipakuw no mu. Afei ɔde ne nsateaa hyɛɛ ɔbarima no asom, tee ntasu de kaa ne tɛkrɛma.
34 and having looked to the sky, He sighed, and says to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened”;
Ɔhwɛɛ ɔsoro, guu ahome teɛɛ mu se, “Hefata!” Ase ne, “bue!”
35 and immediately his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he was speaking plain.
Amono mu hɔ ara, ɔbarima no aso buei, ne tɛkrɛma sanee, na ofii ase kasae.
36 He charged them that they may tell no one, but the more He was charging them, the more abundantly they were proclaiming [it],
Yesu bɔɔ nnipakuw no ano se, wɔmmmɔ asɛm no dawuru nkyerɛ obiara. Nanso mpɛn dodow a ɔbraa wɔn no, na trɛw ara na wɔn nso wɔretrɛw asɛm no mu.
37 and they were being astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well; He makes both the deaf to hear, and the mute to speak.”
Saa asɛm yi maa wɔn ho dwiriw wɔn yiye. Enti wɔkae se, “Yesu ayɛ ade nyinaa yiye, ɔma asotifo mpo te asɛm, na mum nso kasa!”
