Mark 14
1 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread. And the chief priests and the scribes were contriving how they might take Jesus by surprise, and kill him.
Aka nnanu na Twam Afahyɛ ne Apiti Afahyɛ a ɛyɛ Yudafoɔ ahomegyeɛ nna no aduru no, asɔfoɔ mpanin ne Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no hwehwɛɛ nyansakwan a wɔbɛfa so akye Yesu, akum no.
2 They said, however, Not during the festival, for fear of an insurrection among the people.
Nanso, wɔkaa sɛ, “Yɛrenkyere no afahyɛ no mu, anyɛ saa a ɛde basabasa bɛba ɔman no mu.”
3 Now being at table in Bethany, in the house of Simon, formerly a leper, there came a woman with an alabaster box of the balsam of spikenard, which was very costly; and she broken open the box, and poured the liquor upon his head.
Yesu wɔ Betania na ɔne Simon kwatani redidi no, ɔbaa bi a ɔkura ngo hwamhwam bi a ne bo yɛ den baa hɔ. Ɔtuu ano, hwie guu Yesu tirim.
4 There were some present, who said with indignation, Why this profusion of the balsam?
Deɛ ɔbaa yi yɛeɛ no anyɛ nnipa a wɔte adidiiɛ no mu bi dɛ. Na wɔkaa sɛ, “Wasɛe ngo no kwa.
5 For it could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, which might have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
Anka ɔbɛtumi atɔn ngo hwamhwam yi anya sika pii na ɔde ama ahiafoɔ.”
6 But Jesus said, Let her alone. Why do you molest her? She has done me a good office.
Nanso, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnyaa no! Adɛn enti na moreha no wɔ ade pa a ɔyɛeɛ no ho?
7 For you will have the poor always amongst you, and can do them good whenever you please; but me you will not always have.
Mo ne ahiafoɔ a mobɛtumi aboa wɔn ɛberɛ biara mu na ɛte. Na me deɛ, merenkyɛ wɔ mo nkyɛn.
8 She has done what she could. She has beforehand embalmed my body for the funeral.
Wayɛ deɛ ɔbɛtumi. Wadi ɛkan asra me onipadua ama ɛda a wobɛsie me.
9 Indeed, I say to you, in whatsoever corner of the world the glad tidings shall be proclaimed, what this woman has now done, shall be mentioned to her honor.
Mereka makyerɛ mo sɛ, baabiara a wɔbɛka Asɛmpa no wɔ ewiase no, wɔde deɛ ɔbaa yi yɛeɛ no bɛkae no, akamfo no.”
10 Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, repaired to the chief priests, to betray Jesus to them.
Afei, Yuda Iskariot, asuafoɔ dumienu no mu baako, kɔɔ asɔfoɔ mpanin no nkyɛn ne wɔn kɔhyehyɛɛ sɛdeɛ ɔbɛyi Yesu ama wɔn no ho.
11 And they listened to him with joy, and promised to give him money. Afterward he sought a favorable opportunity to deliver him up.
Asɔfoɔ mpanin no tee asɛm no, ɛyɛɛ wɔn anigye ma wɔhyɛɛ no bɔ. Ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no, ɔhwehwɛɛ sɛdeɛ ɔbɛnya Yesu ho ɛkwan, ayi no ama ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ mu.
12 Now the first day of unleavened bread, when the passover is sacrificed, his disciples said to him, Whither shall we go to prepare for your eating the passover?
Apiti Afahyɛ no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan a wɔkum Twam Afahyɛ odwan no, nʼasuafoɔ bisaa no faako a wɔbɛkɔ akɔdi Twam Afahyɛ no.
13 Then he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, Go into the city, where you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him;
Ɔsomaa nʼasuafoɔ no mu baanu kɔɔ Yerusalem sɛ wɔnkɔsiesie baabi mma no. Deɛ ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn ne sɛ, “Morekɔ kuro no mu a, mobɛhyia onipa bi a ɔso ahina. Monni nʼakyi.
14 and wherever he shall enter, say to the master of the house, The Teacher says, Where is the guest chamber, in which I may eat the passover with my disciples?
Baabiara a ɔbɛwura no, monka nkyerɛ efiewura no sɛ, ‘Yɛn wura asoma yɛn sɛ, yɛmmɛhwɛ ɛdan a wɔasiesie ama yɛn a yɛbɛdi Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ mu no.’
15 And he will show you a large upper room ready furnished. There prepare for us.
Ɔbɛkyerɛ mo abansoro asa kɛseɛ bi a wɔasiesie mu. Ɛhɔ na monyɛ ahoboa mma yɛn.”
16 Accordingly, his disciples went away, and being come into the city, found everything as he had told them, and prepared the passover.
Asuafoɔ baanu no siim kɔɔ kuro no mu, na wɔhunuu biribiara sɛdeɛ Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn no pɛpɛɛpɛ, na wɔsiesiee Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ hɔ.
17 In the evening he went thither with the twelve.
Ɛduruu anwummerɛ no, Yesu ne dumienu no baeɛ.
18 As they were at table eating, Jesus said, Indeed, I say to you, that one of you who eats with me, will betray me.
Na wɔte hɔ redidi no, Yesu kaa sɛ, “Merema mo ate aseɛ sɛ, mo a me ne mo reto nsa adidi yi mu baako bɛyi me ama.”
19 Upon this they became very sorrowful; and asked him, all of them, one after another, Is it I?
Wɔn nyinaa werɛ hoeɛ, na wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ bisaa mmaako mmaako sɛ, “Ɛyɛ me anaa?”
20 He answering, said to them, It is one of the twelve; he who dips his morsel in the dish with me.
Ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Ɛyɛ mo dumienu a mo ne me reto nsa adidi yi mu baako.
21 The Son of Man departs in the manner foretold in the scripture concerning him; but alas for that man! by whom the Son of Man is betrayed: it had been better for that man never to have been born.
Onipa Ba no wu sɛdeɛ odiyifoɔ no hyɛɛ ne ho nkɔm no; nanso onipa a ɔbɛyi Onipa Ba no ama no, nnue! Sɛ wanwo saa onipa no a, anka ɛyɛ.”
22 While they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and after blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, Take; this is my body.
Ɛberɛ a wɔredidi no, Yesu faa abodoo, na ɔhyiraa so bubuiɛ, na ɔde maa wɔn kaa sɛ, “Monnye nni; yei ne me onipadua.”
23 Then he took the cup, and having given thanks, gave it to them; and they all drank of it.
Afei, ɔfaa kuruwa a nsã wɔ mu, na ɔdaa ase no, ɔde maa wɔn, na wɔn nyinaa nom bi.
24 And he said to them, This is my blood, the blood of the new institution, shed for many.
Na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Yei ne me mogya a ɛyɛ apam no mogya a ɛhyɛ Apam Foforɔ no mu den a bebree enti wɔrehwie agu.
25 Indeed, I say to you, that I will drink no more of the product of the vine, till that day when I shall drink it new in the kingdom of God.
Mereka akyerɛ mo sɛ, merennom saa nsã yi bio da akɔsi ɛda a me ne mo bɛnom bi bio wɔ Onyankopɔn Ahennie no mu.”
26 And after the hymn, they went to the Mount of Olives.
Wɔtoo dwom bi wieeɛ no, wofirii hɔ kɔɔ Ngo Bepɔ no so.
27 And Jesus said to them, This night I shall prove a stumbling stone to you all; for it is written, "I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep shall be dispersed."
Wɔduruu deɛ wɔrekɔ no, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mo nyinaa bɛdwane agya me. Ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn nam adiyifoɔ no so kaa sɛ, “‘Mɛbɔ odwanhwɛfoɔ no, na nnwan no abɔ apete.’
28 Nevertheless, after I am raised again, I will go before you to Galilee.
Na sɛ mewusɔre a, mɛdi mo anim akɔ Galilea akɔhyia mo wɔ hɔ.”
29 Peter then said to him, Though they all should stumble, I never will.
Petro ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ nnipa nyinaa bɛdwane agya wo a, me deɛ, merennwane nnya wo da!”
30 Jesus answered him, Indeed, I say to you, that to-day, this very night, before the cock crow twice, even you will disown me thrice.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Petro, ansa na anadwo yi akokɔ bɛbɔn mprenu no, na woapa me mprɛnsa.”
31 But Peter insisted on it, adding, Although I should die with you, I will never disown you. And all the rest said the same.
Petro de anibereɛ kaa sɛ, “Merempa wo da! Sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ me ne wo wu mpo a, merempa wo da!” Saa ara na wɔn a aka no nyinaa nso kaeɛ.
32 Then they came to a place named Gethsemane, where he said to his disciples, Stay here while I pray.
Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no duruu baabi a wɔfrɛ hɔ Getsemane no, ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, “Montena ha, na merekɔbɔ mpaeɛ aba.”
33 And he took with him Peter, and James, and John, and being seized with grief and horror,
Ɔfaa Petro, Yakobo ne Yohane kaa ne ho, na ne ho hyɛɛ aseɛ yeraa no, na ɔyɛɛ basaa.
34 said to them, My soul is overwhelmed with a deadly anguish; tarry here and watch.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Awerɛhoɔ ahyɛ me kra ma. Montena ha, na mo ne me nwɛn.”
35 And going a little before, he threw himself on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, he might be delivered from that hour,
Ɔkɔɔ nʼanim kakra, kɔbutuu fam, bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, sɛ ɛbɛtumi a, saa ahoyera no ntwa ne ho nkɔ.
36 and said, Abba, (that is, Father, ) all things are possible to thee; take this cup away from me; yet not what I would, but what thou wilt.
Ɔkaa sɛ, “Abba, Agya! Wotumi yɛ biribiara. Ma kuruwa yi ntwa me ho nkɔ. Nanso, deɛ wopɛ na ɛnyɛ hɔ, na ɛnyɛ deɛ mepɛ.”
37 Then he returned, and finding them asleep, said to Peter, Simon, do you sleep? Could you not keep awake a single hour?
Ɔsane baeɛ no, ɔbɛhunuu asuafoɔ baasa no sɛ wɔadeda. Ɔbisaa Petro sɛ, “Simon, woada? Woantumi ne me anwɛn dɔnhwereɛ baako pɛ mpo?
38 Watch and pray, that you be not overcome by temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Monwɛn na mommɔ mpaeɛ na ɔsɔhwɛfoɔ no anni mo so. Honhom no pɛ deɛ, na honam no na ɛyɛ mmerɛ.”
39 Again, he retired and prayed, using the same words.
Ɔsane kɔɔ bio kɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ korɔ no ara.
40 When he returned, he again found them sleeping; for their eyes were overpowered, and they knew not what to answer him.
Ɔsane baa wɔn nkyɛn bio bɛhunuu sɛ wɔadeda, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔabrɛbrɛ. Na wonhunu deɛ wɔnka nkyerɛ no.
41 A third time he came, and said to them, Do you now sleep, and take your rest? All is over: the hour is come: and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.
Ɔsane baa ne mprɛnsa so no, ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ. “Mogu so adeda a morehome? Ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ sɛ mode da no atwam. Wɔrebɛyi Onipa Ba no ahyɛ nnebɔneyɛfoɔ nsa.
42 Arise. Let us be going. Lo! he who betrays me is drawing near.
Monsɔre na yɛnkɔ! Monhwɛ, deɛ ɔreyi me ama no wɔ ha!”
43 Immediately, before he had done speaking, appeared Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude armed with swords and clubs, who were sent by the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders.
Ɔgu so rekasa no, Yuda a ɔyɛ nʼasuafoɔ no mu baako ne dɔm a asɔfoɔ mpanin ne Yudafoɔ mpanin asoma wɔn ka ne ho a, wɔkurakura akofena ne mmaa baa hɔ.
44 Now the betrayer had given them this signal: The man whom I shall kiss, is he; seize him, and lead him away safely.
Na Yuda aka akyerɛ wɔn dada sɛ, “Deɛ mɛbam no, ayɛ no atuu no, ɔno ne deɛ morehwehwɛ no no. Monkyere no, na monsɔ ne mu yie mfa no nkɔ.”
45 He was no sooner come, than accosting Jesus, he said, Rabbi, Rabbi, and kissed him.
Ɛno enti, wɔduruu hɔ pɛ, ɔkɔɔ Yesu nkyɛn kɔbam no kaa sɛ, “Me Wura.” Afei, ɔyɛɛ no atuu.
46 Then they laid hands on him and seized him.
Ɛhɔ ara, na ɛdɔm a wɔne Yuda nam no sɔɔ Yesu mu kyeree no.
47 But one of those who were present, drew his sword, and smiting the high priest's servant, cut off his ear.
Wɔn a wɔka Yesu ho no mu baako twee ne akofena de twaa Ɔsɔfopanin no akoa bi aso ma ɛteeɛ.
48 Then Jesus addressing them, said, Do you come with swords and clubs to apprehend me, like people in pursuit of a robber?
Yesu bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Meyɛ owudifoɔ enti na mode akofena ne mmaa aba me so rebɛkye me anaa?
49 I was daily amongst you, teaching in the temple, and you did not arrest me. But in this the scriptures are accomplished.
Adɛn na ɛberɛ a merekyerɛkyerɛ wɔ asɔredan mu hɔ no, moankye me? Nanso, yeinom nyinaa aba sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a nkɔm a wɔhyɛɛ wɔ me ho no bɛba mu.”
50 Then they all forsook him and fled.
Asuafoɔ no nyinaa dwane gyaa no.
51 Now there followed him a youth, who had only a linen cloth wrapped about his body; the soldiers having laid hold of him,
Aberanteɛ bi a ɔde ntomasini bi asi nʼasene dii nʼakyi.
52 he left the cloth, and fled from them naked.
Ɛdɔm a wɔbɛkyeree Yesu no pɛɛ sɛ wɔkyere no, nanso ɔgyaa ne ntoma no maa wɔn, de ne ho saa ara dwanee.
53 Then they took Jesus away to the high priest, with whom all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes, were convened.
Wɔde Yesu kɔɔ Ɔsɔfopanin no anim no, ankyɛre na asɔfoɔ mpanin ne Yudafoɔ mpanin bi bɛhyiaa hɔ.
54 And Peter followed him at a distance, as far as the court of the high priest's house, and sat there with the officers, warming himself at the fire.
Ɛberɛ a wɔde Yesu rekɔ no, Petro tee ne ho dii wɔn akyi, na ɔwiawiaa ne ho kɔhyɛɛ Ɔsɔfopanin no efie hɔ de ne ho kɔfraa asomfoɔ bi a na wɔreto ogya no mu.
55 Meanwhile, the chief priests, and all the Sanhedrin, sought for evidence against Jesus, in order to condemn him to die, but found none:
Asɔfoɔ mpanin ne badwafoɔ no nyinaa hwehwɛɛ sɛ wɔbɛnya asɛm bi atia Yesu, na wɔagyina so abu no kumfɔ. Nanso, wɔannya bi.
56 for many gave false testimony against him, but their testimonies were insufficient.
Nnipa pii bɛdii adansekurumu tiaa Yesu, nanso wɔn nsɛm a wɔkaeɛ no bɔɔ abira.
57 The some arose, who testified falsely against him, saying,
Afei, nnipa no bi kekaa nsɛm a ɛnnim too ne so sɛ,
58 We heard him say, I will demolish this temple made with hands, and in three days will build another without hands.
“Yɛtee sɛ ɔkaa sɛ, ‘Mɛbubu asɔredan a wɔde nsa na ɛsii no, na mede nnansa asi foforɔ a wɔamfa nsa ansi!’”
59 But even here their testimony was defective.
Na yei mpo, wɔn adanseɛ no anhyia.
60 Then the high priest, standing up in the midst, interrogated Jesus, saying, Do you answer nothing to what these men testify against you?
Ɔsɔfopanin no sɔre gyinaa badwa no mfimfini bisaa Yesu sɛ, “Yei nso, wonni ho anoyie biara? Ɛdeɛn na wowɔ ka?”
61 But he was silent, and gave no answer. Again, the high priest interrogating him, said, Are you the Messiah, the Son of the blessed One?
Yesu ammua no. Afei, Ɔsɔfopanin no bisaa no bio sɛ, “Wone Agyenkwa no, Onyankopɔn Ba no anaa?”
62 Jesus answered, I am; nay, you shall see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Almighty, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Mene no, na mobɛhunu Onipa Ba no sɛ ɔte Onyankopɔn nifa, na ɔnam omununkum mu resane aba asase so.”
63 Then the high priest rent his garments, saying, What further need have we of witnesses?
Yei maa Ɔsɔfopanin no sunsuanee nʼatadeɛ mu kaa sɛ, “Adansefoɔ bɛn na wɔn ho hia yɛn bio?
64 You have heard the blasphemy. What is your opinion? And they all pronounced him worthy of death.
Mo nyinaa ate abususɛm a ɔkaeɛ no. Ɛdeɛn na mowɔ ka?” Wɔn nyinaa gye too mu sɛ, ɔsɛ owuo.
65 Then some began to spit on him; others to cover his face and buffet him, saying to him, Divine who it is. And the officers gave him blows on the cheeks.
Na ebinom tee ntasuo guu ne so, na wɔkyekyeree nʼani, na wɔbobɔɔ no akuturuku bisaa no sɛ “Wose woyɛ odiyifoɔ, kyerɛ yɛn onipa ko a ɔbɔɔ wo!” Na asomfoɔ a wɔde no rekɔ no bobɔɔ no asotorɔ.
66 Now Peter being below in the court, one of the maids of the high priest came thither,
Ɛberɛ a na Petro te adihɔ hɔ no, Ɔsɔfopanin no mmaawa no mu baako baa hɔ;
67 who seeing Peter warming himself, looked on him, and said, You also were with the Nazarene Jesus.
na ɔhunuu Petro sɛ ɔreto ogya no, ɔhwɛɛ no haa, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wo nso wo ne Nasareni Yesu no na ɛnam!”
68 But he denied it, saying, I know him not: nor do I understand what you mean. Immediately he went out into the portico, and the cock crew.
Petro saneeɛ sɛ, “Mennim deɛ woreka yi ho hwee!” Na ɛhɔ ara na ɔfirii adi kɔtenaa nkyɛn baabi. Saa ɛberɛ no ara na akokɔ bɔnee.
69 The maid seeing him again, said to the bystanders, This is one of them.
Abaawa no sane hunuu no, na ɔhyɛɛ aseɛ ka kyerɛɛ wɔn a ɔne wɔn nam no sɛ, “Yei nso ka wɔn ho. Ɔyɛ Yesu asuafoɔ no mu baako!”
70 Again he denied. And a little after, those who were present said to Peter, You are certainly one of them; for you are a Galilean, your speech shows it.
Petro saneeɛ bio. Ɛkyɛɛ kakra no, nnipa a wɔgyina ogya no ho no hyɛɛ aseɛ ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Woka wɔn ho, ɛfiri sɛ, woyɛ Galileani!”
71 Upon this he affirmed, with imprecations, and oaths, that he did not know the man of whom they spoke.
Petro hyɛɛ aseɛ kekaa ntam, dii nse sɛ, “Mennim saa onipa a moreka ne ho asɛm yi.”
72 The cock crew the second time: and Peter recollected the word which Jesus had said to him, Before the cock crow twice, you will disown me thrice. And reflecting upon this, he wept.
Na ɛhɔ ara, akokɔ bɔnee deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu. Na Petro kaee Yesu asɛm a ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Akokɔ remmɔn mprenu na woapa me mprɛnsa” no. Na ɔhyɛɛ aseɛ suiɛ.
