Acts 2
1 And on the day of Pentecost they were all together in one place.
Pentekoste da no duu no, na asuafo no nyinaa ahyia wɔ faako.
2 And suddenly there came out of heaven a sound, as of a rushing mighty wind; and it filled the whole house where they were sitting;
Amono mu hɔ ara, nne bi te sɛ ahum a ɛretu fi ɔsoro ba bɛhyɛɛ ofi a na wɔwɔ mu no ma.
3 and there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributing themselves; and one sat upon each of them.
Ogya a ɛredɛw a ɛte sɛ tɛkrɛma besisii wɔn so mmaako mmaako.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, even as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Honhom Kronkron no hyɛɛ wɔn nyinaa ma, na wɔkaa kasa foforo, sɛnea Honhom no maa wɔn ho kwan no.
5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
Saa bere no na Yudafo bi a wɔfɛre Nyame fi mmeaemmeae aba Yerusalem.
6 And when this sound took place, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every one heard them speaking in his own language.
Wɔtee nea ɛrekɔ so no, wɔbɔɔ twi behyiae, na ɛyɛɛ wɔn nwonwa ne ahodwiriw, efisɛ obiara tee sɛ wɔreka ne kurom kasa.
7 And they were amazed, and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these who speak Galilaeans?
Enti wobisae se, “Na saa nnipa yi a wɔrekasa yi nyɛ Galileafo ana?
8 and how is it that we every one hear them in our own language, wherein we were born?
Na adɛn nti na yɛte sɛ wɔreka Onyankopɔn anwonwadwuma ho asɛm wɔ yɛn a yɛyɛ
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, Judaea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Partifo, Mediafo ne Elamfo, ne wɔn a wɔte Mesopotamia ne Yudea ne Kapadokia, Ponto, Asia,
10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and Romans who sojourn here, both Jews and Proselytes,
Frigia ne Pamfilia, Misraim ne Libia fa a ɛbɛn Kirene ne ahɔho a wofi Roma, Yudafo ne wɔn a wɔasakra aba Yudasom mu,
11 Cretans and Arabians—how is it that we hear them speaking in our tongues the wonderful works of God?
ne Kretafo ne Arabfo mu biara kasa mu yi?”
12 And they were all amazed and were in doubt, saying one to another, What can this mean?
Wɔde ahodwiriw bisae se, “Eyi ase ne dɛn?”
13 Others making sport of it, said, They are full of new wine.
Afoforo nso dii wɔn ho fɛw se, “Saa nnipa yi abobow nsa.”
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men of Judea, and all that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words.
Petro ne asomafo dubaako no sɔre gyinaa hɔ na ɔkasaa denneennen kyerɛɛ nnipa no se, “Me nuanom Yudafo ne mo a mote Yerusalem nyinaa, muntie asɛm a mereka yi.
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; for it is the third hour of the day;
Saa nnipa yi mmow nsa sɛnea mususuw no, efisɛ ade nnya nkyee a ɛsɛ sɛ obi nom nsa bow.
16 but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel,
Asɛm a asi yi na odiyifo Yoel hyɛɛ ho nkɔm se:
17 “It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams;
“‘Onyankopɔn kae se, nna a edi akyiri no, mehwie me Honhom no agu nnipa nyinaa so. Mo mmabarima ne mo mmabea bɛhyɛ nkɔm, mo mmerante nso ahu anisoade. Na mo mpanyin nso asoso adae.
18 and even on my servants, and on my handmaids, I will pour out of my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
Saa mmere no mu no, mehwie me Honhom agu mʼasomfo mpo so, mmarima ne mmea, ama wɔahyɛ nkɔm.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
Mede mogya ne ogya ne wusiw kumɔnn bɛyɛ anwonwade ne nsɛnkyerɛnne wɔ ɔsoro ne asase so.
20 the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord cometh, the great and notable day.
Ansa na Awurade da kɛse no bɛba no, owia beduru sum na ɔsram nso ayɛ sɛ mogya.
21 And it shall be that every one that calleth on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Na obiara a ɔbɛbɔ Awurade din no benya nkwa.’
22 Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God wrought by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves know, —
“Israelfo, muntie! Yesu Nasareni no yɛ ɔbarima bi a ne dwuma kronkron a obedii no daa adi wɔ tumi ne anwonwade ne nsɛnkyerɛnne a Onyankopɔn nam ne so yɛe a mo ankasa di ho adanse no mu.
23 this man, being delivered up by the settled purpose and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of godless men, crucified and slew.
Onyankopɔn ankasa fi ne pɛ ne ne nhumu mu sii gyinae yii Yesu maa mo, na mode no maa nnebɔneyɛfo ma wɔbɔɔ no asennua mu kum no.
24 But God raised him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.
Nanso Onyankopɔn nyan no fii owu mu ma oyii no fii owuyaw mu, efisɛ owu antumi anni ne so.”
25 For David saith concerning him, “I saw the Lord always before me; because he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Asɛm a Dawid ka faa ne ho ne sɛ, “Mihu Awurade wɔ mʼani so daa nyinaa. Esiane sɛ ɔwɔ me nsa nifa nti, merenhinhim da.
26 Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue exulted; moreover also, my flesh shall dwell in hope;
Ɛno nti me kra ani gye, na me tɛkrɛma di ahurusi. Me nipadua nso bɛhome asomdwoe mu.
27 because thou wilt not abandon my soul to the underworld, nor wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Efisɛ worennyaw me awufo mu. Na woremma wo Kronkronni no mporɔw. (Hadēs g86)
28 Thou didst make known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance.”
Woakyerɛ me nkwagye kwan; na wobɛma mʼani agye wɔ wʼanim.
29 Brethren, I may speak to you with freedom of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us to this day.
“Anuanom, ɛsɛ sɛ meda mʼadwene adi pefee wɔ yɛn panyin Dawid ho. Owui na wosiee no, na ne nna da so wɔ hɔ besi nnɛ.
30 Being then a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would set one sprung from his loins upon his throne,
Na ɔyɛ odiyifo a onim bɔ bi a Onyankopɔn ahyɛ no no. Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ bɔ se ɔbɛyɛ Dawid asefo no mu baako ɔhene, sɛnea Dawid yɛ ɔhene no ara pɛ.
31 he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that neither was he abandoned to the underworld, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Dawid huu nea Onyankopɔn rebɛyɛ no ɔkasa faa owusɔre a ɛfa Agyenkwa no ho se, ‘Wɔannyaw no awufo mu. Ne honam nso amporɔw.’ (Hadēs g86)
32 This Jesus God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
Onyankopɔn anyan saa Yesu yi afi owu mu, na yɛn nyinaa yɛ saa asɛm yi ho nnansefo.
33 Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye both see and hear.
Wɔahyɛ no anuonyam de no akɔtena Onyankopɔn nifa so ma ne nsa aka Honhom Kronkron no a Agya no hyɛɛ no ho bɔ no; ɛno na wahwie agu yɛn so, na ɛho nsɛnkyerɛnne na muhu na mote yi.
34 For David did not ascend into the heavens; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my lord, “Sit thou on my right hand,
Dawid ankasa de, wankɔ ɔsoro, na mmom ɔkae se, “‘Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me wura se, “Tena me nsa nifa so ha,
35 until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
kosi sɛ mede wʼatamfo bɛyɛ wʼanan ntiaso.”’
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
“Ɛsɛ sɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Israel nyinaa hu sɛ, mo na mobɔɔ saa Yesu yi a Onyankopɔn ayɛ no Awurade ne Agyenkwa no asennua mu.”
37 And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do?
Bere a nnipa no tee saa asɛm yi, ɛhaw wɔn yiye. Enti wobisaa Petro ne asomafo a wɔaka no se, “Anuanom, dɛn na yɛnyɛ?”
38 But Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized to the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Petro ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monsakra mo adwene na momma wɔmmɔ mo asu wɔ Yesu Kristo din mu sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔde mo bɔne bɛkyɛ mo na moanya Onyankopɔn akyɛde a ɛyɛ Honhom Kronkron no.
39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.
Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ Honhom Kronkron yi ho bɔ maa mo ne mo mma ne wɔn a wɔtete akyirikyiri ne wɔn a Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn bɛfrɛ wɔn aba ne nkyɛn no nyinaa.”
40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.
Petro kaa nsɛm bebree kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Munnye mo ho mfi asotwe a ɛreba saa nnebɔneyɛfo yi so no mu.”
41 They therefore received his word, and were baptized; and there were added on that day about three thousand souls.
Wɔn mu dodow no ara gyee asɛm no di ma wɔbɔɔ wɔn asu. Saa da no, nnipa bɛyɛ mpensa na wɔbɛkaa agyidifo no ho.
42 And they were constantly attending on the teaching of the apostles, and the imparting [[of their substance]], the breaking of bread, and the prayers.
Daa na wɔde wɔn adagyew nyinaa sua asomafo no nkyerɛkyerɛ. Wɔne wɔn nyaa ayɔnkofa, hyia didi bɔɔ mu ne wɔn bɔɔ mpae.
43 And fear came upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were wrought through the apostles.
Asomafo no yɛɛ anwonwade ahorow bebree ma obiara a ohuu no ho dwiriw no.
44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Gyidifo no nyinaa kɔɔ so tenaa ase sɛ nnipa koro, na wɔkyekyɛɛ wɔn ahode mu memaa wɔn ho wɔn ho.
45 and they sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as any one had need.
Wɔtɔn wɔn ahode kyekyɛɛ sika a wonya fii mu no maa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛnea ɛho hia obiara.
46 And attending daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread in a private house, they partook of their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
Daa na wɔbɔ mu hyia wɔ asɔredan mu de anigye ne koma pa bɔ mu didi wɔ wɔn afi mu. Wɔkamfoo Onyankopɔn, nyaa anuonyam wɔ nnipa anim.
47 praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were in the way of salvation.
Da biara na Awurade de wɔn a ogye wɔn nkwa no bɛka wɔn ho.
