Yochanan 11
1 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Miriam and her sister, Martha.
Ɔbarima bi tenaa ase wɔ Betania a na wɔfrɛ no Lasaro. Betania yi yɛ kurow a na Maria ne ne nua Marta fi mu. Da bi, saa ɔbarima yi yaree.
2 It was that Miriam who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.
Saa Maria yi a ne nuabarima ne Lasaro a na ɔyare no na ohwiee ngo guu Awurade nan ase de ne tinwi pepae no.
3 The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, "Lord, look, the one you love is sick."
Anuanom yi soma kɔɔ Yesu nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Awurade, wo dɔfo no yare.”
4 But when Yeshua heard it, he said, "This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God's Son may be glorified by it."
Yesu tee nkra no ɔkae se, “Ɛnyɛ saa ɔyare yi na ebekum Lasaro. Mmom Onyankopɔn pɛ sɛ ɔfa saa ɔyare yi so hyɛ ne ho anuonyam, na saa anuonyam yi bi nso ka Onipa Ba no.”
5 Now Yeshua loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
Na Yesu pɛ Maria ne ne nuabea Marta ne Lasaro asɛm yiye.
6 When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.
Bere a Yesu tee nkra sɛ Lasaro yare denneennen no wankɔ saa bere no ara mu; ɔtenaa hɔ nnaanu.
7 Then after this he said to the talmidim, "Let us go into Judea again."
Afei ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafo no se, “Momma yɛnsan nkɔ Yudea.”
8 The talmidim told him, "Rabbi, the Jewish leaders were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?"
Nanso asuafo no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Kyerɛkyerɛfo, ɛnkyɛe biara na Yudafo no pɛɛ sɛ wosiw wo abo na afei wuse yɛnsan nkɔ hɔ bio yi?”
9 Yeshua answered, "Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
Yesu kae se, “Nnɔnhwerew dumien na ɛwɔ da koro mu, meboa ana? Ɛno nti sɛ obi nam hann mu a ɔrenhintiw, efisɛ ɔnam wiase hann mu.
10 But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."
Nanso sɛ ɔnam anadwo sum mu a obehintiw, efisɛ ɔnam sum mu.”
11 He said these things, and after that, he said to them, "Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep."
Yesu san kae se, “Yɛn adamfo Lasaro ada na merekɔ akonyan no.”
12 Then the talmidim said to him, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover."
Asuafo no ka kyerɛɛ Yesu se, “Awurade, sɛ wada de a ɛno de, na ne ho bɛtɔ no.”
13 Now Yeshua had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.
Na Yesu kyerɛ sɛ Lasaro awu nanso asuafo no de, na wosusuw sɛ nna ara na wada.
14 So Yeshua said to them plainly then, "Lazarus is dead.
Ɛno nti Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn pefee se, “Lasaro awu;
15 I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let us go to him."
nanso mo nti ɛyɛ me anigye sɛ na minni hɔ sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mubegye adi. Momma yɛnkɔ ne nkyɛn.”
16 Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow talmidim, "Let us go also, that we may die with him."
Toma a wɔfrɛ no Ata no ka kyerɛɛ ne mfɛfo asuafo no se, “Momma yɛne Kyerɛkyerɛfo no nyinaa nkɔ na yɛne no nkowu.”
17 So when Yeshua came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.
Yesu duu Betania no na Lasaro awu ama wɔasie no ma adi nnaanan.
18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.
Efi Betania rekɔ Yerusalem no nnu akwansin abien,
19 Many of the Jewish people had come to Martha and Miriam, to console them concerning their brother.
na saa bere no na Yudafo bebree aba Marta ne Maria nkyɛn sɛ wɔrebegyam wɔn wɔ wɔn nua no wu no ho.
20 Then when Martha heard that Yeshua was coming, she went and met him, but Miriam stayed in the house.
Marta tee sɛ Yesu reba no, ofii adi kohyiaa no, na Maria de, ɔtenaa fie.
21 Therefore Martha said to Yeshua, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother would not have died.
Marta ka kyerɛɛ Yesu se, “Ao, Awurade, sɛ wowɔ ha a anka me nua no anwu!
22 Even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."
Minim mpo sɛ saa bere yi mu biribiara a wubebisa Onyankopɔn sɛ ɔnyɛ mma wo no ɔbɛyɛ.”
23 Yeshua said to her, "Your brother will rise again."
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wo nua no bɛsan anya nkwa bio.”
24 Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."
Marta buaa no se, “Awurade, minim sɛ owusɔre da no ɔno nso bɛsɔre.”
25 Yeshua said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Me na minyan awufo ma wɔn nkwa. Obiara a ogye me di no sɛ wawu mpo a ɔbɛsan anya nkwa.
Na obiara a ɔte ase na ogye me di no renwu da. Wugye eyi di ana?” (aiōn g165)
27 She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, he who comes into the world."
Marta buae se, “Awurade, migye midi. Migye di sɛ wone Kristo Agyenkwa a ɔne Onyankopɔn Ba a ɔreba wiase no.”
28 And when she had said this, she went away, and called Miriam, her sister, secretly, saying, "The Teacher is here, and is calling you."
Marta kaa saa asɛm yi wiee no, ɔkɔfrɛɛ ne nua Maria de no kɔɔ kokoa mu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Kyerɛkyerɛfo no aba na wabisa wo ase.”
29 When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.
Maria tee saa asɛm yi no ɔyɛɛ ntɛm kohyiaa Yesu.
30 Now Yeshua had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met him.
Saa bere no na Yesu mmeduu akuraa no ase hɔ ɛ. Na ɔda so wɔ faako a Marta hyiaa no hɔ no.
31 Then the Judeans who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Miriam, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.
Bere a Yudafo a wɔne Maria wɔ fie hɔ regyam no no huu sɛ wasɔre mpofirim refi adi no wodii nʼakyi, efisɛ na wosusuw sɛ ɔrekɔ da no so akosu.
32 Therefore when Miriam came to where Yeshua was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother would not have died."
Maria duu faako a Yesu wɔ no, ɔkotow ne nan ase kae se, “Ao Awurade, sɛ wowɔ ha a anka me nua no anwu.”
33 When Yeshua therefore saw her weeping, and the Judeans weeping who came with her, he was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled,
Yesu huu sɛ Maria ne Yudafo a wɔka ne ho no resu no, ɛhaw no yiye na ne werɛ howee.
34 and said, "Where have you put him?" They told him, "Lord, come and see."
Obisaa wɔn se, “Ɛhe na musiee no?” Wobuaa no se, “Awurade, bra na yɛnkɔkyerɛ wo.”
35 Yeshua wept.
Yesu sui.
36 The Judeans therefore said, "See how he loved him."
Yudafo no huu sɛ ɔresu no wɔkae se, “Eyi kyerɛ ɔdɔ a ɔde dɔ no.”
37 But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?"
Wɔn mu bi kae se, “Onipa a ɔmaa onifuraefo huu ade no munnnye nni sɛ anka obetumi agye Lasaro nkwa ana?”
38 So Yeshua, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
Asɛm a nkurɔfo no kaa no maa Yesu werɛ howee. Afei ɔkɔɔ ɔda a wɔde ɔbo ahini ano no so.
39 Yeshua said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."
Yesu hyɛɛ wɔn se, “Munyi ɔbo a ehini ɔda no ano no.” Marta a ɔyɛ owufo no nuabea no kae se, “Awurade, ɛbɛyɛ nnaanan ni a wosiee no nti saa bere yi de, ɔbɔn.”
40 Yeshua said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see God's glory?"
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ Marta se, “Manka ankyerɛ wo se sɛ wugye di a wubehu Onyankopɔn anuonyam?”
41 So they took away the stone. And Yeshua lifted up his eyes, and said, "Father, I thank you that you listened to me.
Woyii ɔbo no fii ɔda no ano. Afei Yesu hwɛɛ ɔsoro, bɔɔ mpae se, “Agya, meda wo ase sɛ wutie me.
42 I know that you always listen to me, but because of the crowd that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me."
Minim sɛ wutie me daa nyinaa nanso esiane nnipa a wɔwɔ ha nti na mereka eyi sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wobegye adi sɛ wo na wosomaa me.”
43 When he had said this, he shouted with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out."
Ɔkaa eyi wiee no, ɔteɛɛ mu dennen se, “Lasaro, sɔre bra!”
44 The man who had died came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Yeshua said to them, "Free him, and let him go."
Lasaro sɔre bae a ntama a wɔde kyekyeree ne nsa ne ne nan ne nʼanim no da so kyekyere no. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monsan ne ho ntama no na ɔnkɔ.”
45 Therefore many of the Judeans, who came to Miriam and had seen the things which he did, believed in him.
Yudafo a wɔbɛsraa Maria na wohuu nea Yesu yɛe no mu bebree gyee no dii.
46 But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Yeshua had done.
Na wɔn mu bi nso kɔɔ Farisifo no hɔ kɔkaa nea esii no nyinaa kyerɛɛ wɔn.
47 The chief cohanim therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, "What are we doing? For this man does many signs.
Enti Farisifo no ne asɔfo mpanyin no hyiaa baguafo no kae se, “Dɛn na yɛreyɛ? Monhwɛ anwonwade a saa onipa yi reyɛ!
48 If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation."
Sɛ yɛma ɔkɔ so yɛ nea ɔreyɛ yi a, nnipa nyinaa begye no adi na wɔadi nʼakyi. Sɛ ɛba saa a Roma aban bebisa yɛn asɛm na wasɛe yɛn asɔredan ne ɔman mu yi nyinaa.”
49 But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being cohen hagadol that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,
Kaiafa a saa bere no na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfopanyin no kae se, “Mo de munnim hwee!
50 nor do you consider that it is advantageous for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish."
Munnim sɛ eye ma mo sɛ onipa baako bewu ama nnipa no nyinaa sen sɛ wɔbɛsɛe ɔman mu no nyinaa?”
51 Now he did not say this of himself, but being cohen hagadol that year, he prophesied that Yeshua would die for the nation,
Emfi ɔno ankasa ne tumi mu na ɔkaa saa asɛm yi, efisɛ esiane sɛ na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfopanyin saa bere no nti na ɔhyɛɛ nkɔm se, “Yesu bewu de agye mo nkwa,”
52 and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
na ɛnyɛ wɔn nko, na mmom ɛnam eyi so bɛma Onyankopɔn mma a wɔabɔ ahwete no nyinaa ano aboa na wɔayɛ ɔman baako.
53 So from that day on they plotted to kill him.
Efi saa bere no, Yudafo mpanyin no faa adwene sɛ wobekum Yesu.
54 Yeshua therefore walked no more openly among the Judeans, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim; and stayed there with his talmidim.
Eyi nti Yesu anyi ne ho adi wɔ Yudea, na ofii hɔ kɔɔ sare so kurow bi a wɔfrɛ no Efraim ne nʼasuafo no kɔtenaa hɔ.
55 Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
Na Yudafo Twam Afahyɛ no rebɛn nti nnipa pii fii wɔn nkuraa kɔɔ Yerusalem sɛ wɔrekodwira wɔn ho de atwɛn afahyɛ no.
56 Then they sought for Yeshua and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, "What do you think—that he is not coming to the feast at all?"
Na wɔrehwehwɛ Yesu ahu no. Ɛno nti woduu asɔredan mu hɔ no, wobisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se, “Mugye di sɛ Yesu bɛba afahyɛ yi bi ana?” Ebinom kae se, “Yennye nni.”
57 Now the chief cohanim and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might arrest him.
Saa bere yi na asɔfo mpanyin ne Farisifo no ahyɛ sɛ, sɛ obi nim faako a Yesu wɔ a, ɔnkyerɛ na wɔnkɔkyere no.
