Luke 5
1 And it came to pass, as the multitude was pressing upon him and hearing the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret,
Da bi a Yesu reka asɛmpa wɔ Genesaret ɔtare ho no, nnipakuw bɛkyeree ne so sɛ wɔrebetie Onyankopɔn asɛm.
2 and saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone out of them, and had washed the nets.
Ohuu akorow abien a apopofo bi a wɔhohoro wɔn asau wɔ mu no agyaw wɔ ɔtare no ho.
3 And going into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And sitting down in the boat, he taught the multitudes.
Yesu kɔtenaa ɔkorow no baako a na ɛyɛ Simon de no mu. Ɔka kyerɛɛ Simon se ompia nkɔ asu no mu kakra sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, obetumi afi hɔ akasa akyerɛ nnipa no.
4 And when he had done speaking, he said to Simon, Put out into deep water, and let down your nets for a draught.
Yesu wiee nʼasɛnka no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Simon se, “Hare kɔ baabi a emu dɔ kakra na munkogu mo asau no na mubeyi nam bebree.”
5 And Simon answering said, Master, we toiled all night, and took nothing; but at thy word I will let down the nets.
Simon kae se, “Owura, yɛyɛɛ adwuma anadwo mu no nyinaa yɛannya hwee, nanso wʼasɛm nti, yebegu yɛn asau no.”
6 And having done this, they inclosed great multitude of fishes; and their nets began to break.
Woguu asau no na woyii nam bebree maa anka mpo asau no retetew.
7 And they beckoned to their partners in the other boat, to come and help them; and they came, and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
Wɔfrɛɛ wɔn mfɛfo a wɔwɔ ɔkorow baako no mu no ma wɔbɛboaa wɔn twee asau no. Nam no yɛɛ akorow abien no nyinaa amaama a anka ɛreyɛ amem mpo.
8 And Simon Peter seeing it fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.
Simon Petro huu nea aba no, obuu Yesu nkotodwe kae se, “Me wura, mesrɛ wo fi me nkyɛn kɔ na meyɛ ɔdebɔneyɛni a mensɛ sɛ wobɛn me.”
9 For he and all that were with him were amazed at the draught of fishes, which they had taken;
Nam dodow a woyii no yɛɛ Petro ne ne ne dɔm no nwonwa.
10 and so were also James and John the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; henceforth thou shalt catch men.
Saa ara nso na ɛyɛɛ Yakobo ne Yohane, Sebedeo mma no nso nwonwa. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ Petro se, “Nsuro efi nnɛ, wobɛyɛ nnipayifo.”
11 And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything, and followed him.
Wɔde akorow no beduu asu no ano hɔ no, wogyaw wɔn nneɛma nyinaa hɔ bedii nʼakyi.
12 And it came to pass, when he was in one of the cities, lo! a man full of leprosy; and seeing Jesus, he fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.
Da bi a Yesu wɔ kurow bi mu no, ɔbarima bi a kwata ayɛ ne honam nyinaa bɛkotow nʼanim srɛɛ no sɛ, “Owura, mesrɛ wo, sɛ ɛyɛ wo pɛ a, sa me yare.”
13 And he put forth his hand and touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed. And immediately the leprosy left him.
Ɛhɔ ara Yesu teɛɛ ne nsa de kaa no kae se, “Yiw, ɛyɛ me pɛ. Wo ho mfi.” Amono mu hɔ ara, ne ho fii.
14 And he charged him to tell no one: but go, and show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
Yesu hyɛɛ no se, “Wo ne obiara nni wʼayaresa yi ho nkɔmmɔ. Kɔ na fa wo ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfo na bɔ afɔre a Mose hyɛɛ sɛ akwatafo a wɔn ho afi no mmɔ sɛ adansedi no.”
15 But so much the more went abroad the report concerning him; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed of their infirmities.
Yesu anwonwadwuma a ɔyɛe yi maa ne ho asɛm trɛw mpɔtam hɔ nyinaa maa nnipa bebree betiee no pɛɛ sɛ ɔsa wɔn yare nso.
16 But he was wont to withdraw to desert places, and pray.
Nanso na ɔtaa twe ne ho kɔ sare so kɔbɔ mpae.
17 And it came to pass on a certain day, that he was teaching, and there were sitting by Pharisees and teachers of the law, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was present that he might heal.
Bere bi a Yesu rekyerɛkyerɛ no, na Farisifo ne Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo bi a wofi Galilea ne Yudea nkurow ahorow so ne Yerusalem nso wɔ hɔ bi a wɔretie no. Saa bere no, na Onyankopɔn ayaresa tumi ahyɛ no ma.
18 And lo! men brought on a bed a man that was palsied; and they endeavored to bring him in, and to set him before him.
Mmarima bi baa hɔ a wɔso obubuafo bi.
19 And not finding any way to bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the house-top, and let him down through the tiling with the couch into the midst before Jesus.
Esiane sɛ na wontumi mfa nnipakuw no mu nkɔ Yesu nkyɛn nti, wɔforoo ɔdan a Yesu wɔ mu no kotuu atifi tokuru, de obubuafo a ɔda ne kɛtɛ so no faa mu gyaagyaa no brɛoo, kɔtoo Yesu anim.
20 And seeing their faith, he said, Man, thy sins have been forgiven thee.
Yesu huu gyidi a wɔwɔ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔyarefo no se, “Onua, wɔde wo bɔne akyɛ wo.”
21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this that speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?
Farisifo no ne Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo no tee asɛm a Yesu kae no, wobisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se, “Hena ne saa onipa yi a ɔreka abususɛm yi? Hena na otumi sɛ ɔde bɔne kyɛ ka Onyankopɔn ho?”
22 But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, answered and said to them, What are ye thinking in your hearts?
Esiane sɛ Yesu huu nea wodwinnwen no nti, obuaa wɔn se, “Adɛn nti na modwene sɛ asɛm a mekae yi yɛ abususɛm?”
23 Which is easier? to say, Thy sins have been forgiven thee? or to say, Arise, and walk?
Yesu bisaa wɔn se, “Nea ɛwɔ he na ɛyɛ den, sɛ wɔbɛka akyerɛ obi se, wɔde wo bɔne akyɛ wo anaasɛ, wɔbɛka se sɔre na nantew?
24 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority on earth to forgive sins, —he said to the palsied man, —I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go to thy house.
Na sɛ ɛbɛyɛ na mubehu sɛ Onipa Ba no wɔ tumi sɛ ɔde bɔne kyɛ wɔ asase so nti.” Mereka akyerɛ wo se, “Sɔre yi wo kɛtɛ na kɔ fie!”
25 And he immediately rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and went away to his house, giving glory to God.
Amono mu hɔ ara, ɔsɔre yii ne kɛtɛ kɔɔ fie. Ɔrekɔ no nyinaa na ɔreyi Onyankopɔn ayɛ.
26 And amazement seized them all, and they gave glory to God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day.
Wɔn a wogyina hɔ no ho dwiriw wɔn. Ehu kaa wɔn. Woyii Onyankopɔn ayɛ kae se, “Nnɛ de, yɛahu anwonwade.”
27 And after these things he went out, and saw a publican named Levi, sitting at the custom-house; and he said to him, Follow me.
Eyi akyi no, Yesu fii hɔ kohuu ɔtowgyeni Lewi sɛ ɔte atowgyei. Ohuu no no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Bedi mʼakyi.”
28 And leaving everything, he arose and followed him.
Lewi sɔre gyaw ne nneɛma nyinaa hɔ dii nʼakyi.
29 And Levi made a great feast for him at his house, and there was a great company of publicans and others, who were reclining at table with them.
Akyiri no, Lewi too pon wɔ ne fi maa Yesu. Towgyefo ne nnipa ahorow bebree kɔɔ aponto no ase.
30 And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with the publicans and sinners?
Farisifo ne Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo no huu sɛ Yesu ne saa nnipa no ato nsa redidi no, wonwiinwii bisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na wo ne towgyefo ne nnebɔneyɛfo ato nsa redidi?”
31 And Jesus answering said to them, They who are well do not need a physician, but they who are sick.
Yesu buaa wɔn se, “Wɔn a wɔyare no na ɔyaresafo ho hia wɔn na ɛnyɛ wɔn a wɔnyare.
32 I have not come to call righteous men, but sinners to repentance.
Mamma sɛ merebɛfrɛ atreneefo na mmom mebɛfrɛɛ nnebɔneyɛfo sɛ wɔnsakra wɔn adwene.”
33 And they said to him, The disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink.
Nnipa no kɔɔ so bisaa no bio se, “Adɛn nti na Osuboni Yohane asuafo ne Farisifo asuafo no de, wɔtaa di mmuada, na wʼasuafo de, daa wodidi na wɔnom?”
34 But Jesus said to them, Can ye make the companions of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them?
Yesu nso bisaa wɔn se, “Ɛho hia sɛ wɔn a wɔn ani agye, anaasɛ wɔn a wɔahyia wɔn ayeforo ase no di mmuada, wɔ bere a ayeforokunu no wɔ wɔn nkyɛn ana?
35 But the days will come—and when the bridegroom is taken from them, then will they fast in those days.
Nanso da bi bɛba a wɔbɛfa ayeforokunu no afi wɔn nkyɛn; saa bere no na wobedi mmuada.”
36 And he spoke also a parable to them: No one taketh a patch from a new garment and putteth it upon an old one; for then both the new garment would be rent, and the patch from the new garment would not match with the old.
Yesu buu wɔn bɛ yi se, “Obi mfa ntama foforo ntare ntama dedaw mu. Ɔyɛ saa a foforo no bɛma dedaw no asuane. Na ɛbɛma nsonoe ada foforo no ne dedaw no ntam.
37 And no one putteth new wine into old skins; for the new wine would burst the skins, and would itself run out, and the skins would be spoilt.
Obiara nso mfa nsa foforo ngu mmoa nhoma nsa nkotoku dedaw mu. Ɔyɛ saa a nsa no bɛpaapae nkotoku no na ahwie agu na nkotoku no nso asɛe.
38 But new wine must be put into new skins.
Eyi nti, nsa nkotoku foforo mu nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde nsa foforo gu.
39 And no one, having drunk old wine, desireth new; for he saith, The old is good.
Obi nnom nsa dedaw nwie mmisa nsa foforo ase. Nea ɔnom no ka se, ‘dedaw no na eye.’”
