Luke 8
1 And it came to pass afterward, that he journeyed through cities and villages, preaching and publishing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him,
Yei akyi no, Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ dumienu no kyinkyinii Galilea nkuro ne nkuraa bi ase kaa Onyankopɔn Ahennie no ho asɛm.
2 and certain women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons,
Ɔrekɔ no, nnipa a na wɔdi nʼakyi no bi ne Maria Magdalene a ɔtuu ahonhommɔne nson firii ne mu no,
3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who afforded them aid from their substance.
ne Yohana a ɔyɛ Kusa, Herode efie sohwɛfoɔ panin yere, ne Susana. Saa mmaa yi ne afoforɔ bi na wɔfiri wɔn ahonya mu hwɛɛ Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ.
4 And a great multitude collecting together, and people from the cities going out to him, he spoke by a parable:
Ɛda bi a nnipa bebree bi firi nkuro nkuro so baa ne nkyɛn no, ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔn abɛbuo mu sɛ,
5 A sower went forth to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some seeds fell by the way-side; and they were trodden down, and the birds of the air devoured them.
“Ɛda bi, okuafoɔ bi kɔɔ nʼafuom kɔguu aba. Ɔguiɛ no, aba no bi kɔguu ɛkwan mu maa nnipa tiatiaa so na nnomaa bɛsosɔeɛ.
6 And others fell upon rocky ground; and when they had sprung up they withered away, because they had no moisture.
Ebi nso kɔguu abotan so, enti ɛfifiriiɛ no, ankyɛre na ne nyinaa hyeeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, annya nsuo.
7 And others fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up with them, and choked them.
Aba no bi nso kɔguu nkasɛɛ mu. Ɛfifiriiɛ no, nkasɛɛ no kyekyeree no na ɛwuiɛ.
8 And others fell upon good ground, and sprung up, and bore fruit, a hundred-fold. While saying these things, he cried aloud, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Ebi nso kɔguu asase pa mu, ɛnyiniiɛ, soo aba mmɔho ɔha.” Na ɔkaa yei no, ɔka kaa ho sɛ, “Deɛ ɔwɔ aso a ɔbɛtie no, ɔntie.”
9 And his disciples asked him what this parable meant.
Na nʼasuafoɔ no bisaa no saa abɛbuo yi ase no,
10 And he said, To you it hath been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to others [[these things are spoken]] in parables; that while seeing they may not see, and while hearing they may not understand.
ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Mo deɛ, wɔde Onyankopɔn Ahennie ho ahintasɛm ama mo, na afoforɔ deɛ, wɔkasa kyerɛ wɔn abɛbuo mu, “‘sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a wɔbɛhwɛ, nanso wɔrenhunu na wɔbɛte, nanso wɔrente aseɛ.’
11 Now the meaning of the parable is this. The seed is the word of God.
“Afei, abɛbuo no asekyerɛ ni. Aba no ne Onyankopɔn asɛm.
12 Those by the way-side are they that hear; then cometh the Devil and taketh away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
Aba a ɛguu ɛkwan mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔate Onyankopɔn asɛm no na ɔbonsam bɛhwim firi wɔn akoma mu, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔrennye nni na wɔrennya nkwagyeɛ.
13 Those on the rocky ground are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root; and for a while they believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Aba a ɛguu abotan so no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔte asɛm no na wɔde anigyeɛ sɔ mu, nanso ɛntim wɔn mu. Na ɛsiane wɔn gyidie a ɛsua no enti, ɛnkyɛre na asɛm no awu. Na sɛ sɔhwɛ ba wɔn so a, wɔpa aba.
14 And those seeds which fell among the thorns, these are they who, when they have heard, go away and are choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
Aba a ɛguu nkasɛɛ mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔte Onyankopɔn asɛm, na wɔdi so, nanso asetena mu haw ne abɛbrɛsɛ, ahonya ne ewiase afɛfɛdeɛ enti, asɛm no ntumi nyɛ wɔn mu adwuma sɛdeɛ ɛsɛ.
15 But the seeds on the good ground, these are they who in an honest and good heart, when they have heard the word, hold it fast, and bear fruit with constancy.
Aba a ɛguu asase pa mu no gyina hɔ ma wɔn a wɔde akoma pa tie asɛmpa no, na wɔdi so, gyina pintinn de abrabɔ pa di ho adanseɛ.
16 And no one having lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.
“Obi nsɔ kanea na ɔmfa kɛntɛn mmutu so, anaa ɔmfa nhyɛ mpa ase na mmom, ɔde si kaneadua so na ahyerɛn ama wɔn a wɔba mu no.
17 For nothing is secret, that will not be made manifest; nor hidden, that will not be known, and come to light.
Deɛ ahinta no bɛda adi, na deɛ ɛwɔ kɔkoam no nso ada dwa.
18 Take heed therefore how ye hear; for whoever hath, to him will be given; and whoever hath not, from him will be taken even what he seemeth to have.
Enti deɛ motie no, montie no yie. Obiara a ɔwɔ no wɔbɛma no pii aka ho, na deɛ ɔnni ahe bi no, deɛ ɔsusu sɛ ɛyɛ ne dea no mpo, wɔbɛgye afiri ne nsam.”
19 And his mother and his brothers came where he was, and could not get to him on account of the crowd.
Ɛda bi, Yesu maame ne ne nuanom pɛɛ sɛ wɔne no kasa, nanso ɛsiane nnipakuo a na wɔatwa ne ho ahyia no enti, wɔantumi ne no ankasa.
20 And word was brought to him, Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, desiring to see thee.
Obi kɔka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ ne maame ne ne nuanom gyina nkyɛn hɔ baabi rehwehwɛ no.
21 And he answering said to them, My mother and my brothers are these, who hear the word of God, and do it.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Me maame ne me nuanom ne wɔn a wɔtie Onyankopɔn asɛm na wɔdi so.”
22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a boat with his disciples, and said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake; and they put off.
Ɛda bi a Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ te kodoɔ mu no, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Momma yɛntwa nkɔ asuogya nohoa.” Wɔsiim a wɔrekɔ no,
23 But as they were sailing, he fell asleep. And there came down a storm of wind on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy.
Yesu daeɛ. Saa ɛberɛ no ara mu, mframa a ano yɛ den bi bɔ maa nsuo bɛtaa kodoɔ no mu maa kodoɔ no yɛɛ sɛ ɛremem. Yei maa asuafoɔ no akoma tuu yie.
24 And they came and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we are perishing! And he rose, and rebuked the wind, and the surging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.
Asuafoɔ no de hu ne nteateam nyanee no sɛ, “Awurade, Awurade, yɛremem!” Amonom hɔ ara, Yesu sɔre teateaa mframa a ano yɛ den ne asorɔkye no ma ɛyɛɛ dinn.
25 And he said to them, Where is your faith? And they were afraid, and wondered, saying one to another, Who then is this, that he commandeth even the winds and the water, and they obey him?
Afei, ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn na monni gyidie?” Wɔn nyinaa suroeɛ de ahodwirie bisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ. “Onipa bɛn ni a mframa a ano yɛ den ne asorɔkye mpo tie no yi?”
26 And they sailed to the country of the Gergesenes, which is over against Galilee.
Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no twaa ɛpo no bɛduruu Gerasefoɔ asase a ɛne Galilea di nhwɛanimu no so.
27 And when he had landed, there met him a certain man out of the city who had demons, and for a long time had worn no clothes, and abode not in a house, but in the tombs.
Yesu firii kodoɔ no mu sii fam pɛ, ɔbarima bi a ahonhommɔne ahyɛ no ma akyɛre a ɔda adagya na ɔnte efie, na mmom ɔte amusieeɛ a aboda mu na ɔdeda no bɛhyiaa no.
28 And seeing Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, do not torment me.
Ɔhunuu Yesu no, ɔteaam, kotoo ne nan ase sane teateaam sɛ, “Yesu, Ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn Ba, ɛdeɛn na wo ne me wɔ yɛ? Mesrɛ wo, nyɛ me ayayadeɛ biara.”
29 For he was about to command the unclean spirit to come out of the man; for it had possessed him for a long time, and he had been kept bound and secured with chains and fetters; and bursting the bands, he had been driven by the demon into the wilderness.
Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi, ɛfiri sɛ, na Yesu ateatea ahonhommɔne no sɛ wɔmfiri ne mu. Saa ahonhommɔne yi taa ka no na sɛ wɔde ahoma kyekyere ne nsa ne ne nan mpo a, ɔtumi tete mu ma ahonhommɔne no pam no kɔ wiram.
30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion; because many demons had entered into him.
Yesu bisaa no sɛ, “Wo din de sɛn?” Ɔbuaa no sɛ, “Ɛdɔm.” Ɛfiri sɛ na ahonhommɔne ahyɛ no ma.
Ahohommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔnnhyɛ wɔn mma wɔnkɔgu amanehunu bɔn no mu. (Abyssos g12)
32 Now there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain; and they besought him to permit them to go into them. And he permitted them.
Saa ɛberɛ no mu na mprako bi redidi wɔ bepɔ no nkyɛn mu baabi. Ahohommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔmma wɔn ho ɛkwan na wɔnkɔwura mprako no mu. Na ɔmaa wɔn ho kwan.
33 And the demons coming out of the man went into the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.
Enti ahonhommɔne no firii ɔbarima no mu kɔwuraa mprako no mu ma wɔbɔɔ kiridi, sianee bepɔ no kɔguu ɔtadeɛ no mu wuwuiɛ.
34 And the herdsmen, seeing what was done, fled, and told the news in the city and in the country.
Wɔn a wɔhwɛ mprako no so no hunuu deɛ asi no, wɔde hu ne ahopopoɔ tutuu mmirika kɔbɔɔ amaneɛ wɔ kurom maa asɛm no trɛeɛ wɔ mpɔtam hɔ nyinaa.
35 And they went out to see what had been done. And they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus; and they were afraid.
Nnipa a wɔtee asɛm no bɔɔ twi kɔhwɛɛ deɛ asi. Wɔduruu deɛ Yesu wɔ no, wɔhunuu ɔbarima no sɛ ne ho atɔ no a ɔfira ntoma te Yesu nkyɛn. Nnipa no nyinaa ho dwirii wɔn.
36 And they who had seen it told them how he that was possessed by demons was made well.
Na wɔn a wɔhunuu ɛkwan a Yesu faa so saa ɔbarima no yadeɛ no bɔɔ wɔn a wɔbaa hɔ no amaneɛ.
37 And the whole multitude in the surrounding country of the Gergesenes besought him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear. And he went on board a boat and returned.
Ehu hyɛɛ Gerasefoɔ a na wɔahyia hɔ no nyinaa ma ma wɔsrɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔmfiri wɔn nkyɛn hɔ nkɔ. Yei enti, Yesu kɔtenaa kodoɔ no mu sane tware kɔɔ asuogya hɔ nohoa.
38 And the man out of whom the demons had gone besought him that he might be with him. But he sent him away, saying,
Ansa na Yesu rebɛfiri hɔ no, ɔbarima a ɔtuu ahonhommɔne firii ne mu no srɛɛ no sɛ ɔne no bɛkɔ. Nanso, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ,
39 Return to thy house, and tell what great things God hath done for thee. And he went and published through the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
“Kɔ na kɔdi deɛ Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama wo no ho adanseɛ kyerɛ wo manfoɔ.” Ɔbarima no firii hɔ kɔdii anwanwadeɛ a Yesu ayɛ ama no no ho adanseɛ kyerɛɛ kurom hɔfoɔ nyinaa.
40 And it came to pass when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed him; for they were all waiting for him.
Yesu duruu asuogya hɔ no, nnipakuo no de anigyeɛ hyiaa no kwan, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔatwɛn no abrɛ.
41 And lo! there came a man, named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue; and falling at the feet of Jesus, he besought him to come into his house;
Ɔbarima bi a wɔfrɛ no Yairo a na ɔyɛ Yudafoɔ hyiadan mu panin baa ne nkyɛn, bɛbuu no nkotodwe, srɛɛ no sɛ, ɔne no nkɔ ne fie
42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. And as he went, the multitudes thronged him.
na ne babaa korɔ a wadi bɛyɛ mfeɛ dumienu reyɛ awu. Ɛberɛ a Yesu rekɔ no na nnipakuo no kyere ne so.
43 And a woman who had had an issue of blood twelve years, and had spent all her living upon physicians, and could not be cured by any one,
Ɔbaa bi a mogya atu no mfirinhyia dumienu a obiara ntumi nsa no yadeɛ no,
44 came up behind and touched the fringe of his garment; and immediately her issue of blood ceased.
firii Yesu akyi sɔɔ nʼatadeɛ ano. Amonom hɔ ara, mogya a ɛtu no no twaeɛ.
45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all denied it, Peter and those with him said, Master, the multitudes are thronging thee, and pressing against thee.
Yesu bisaa sɛ, “Hwan na ɔsɔɔ mʼatadeɛ ano no?” Obiara buaa sɛ, ɛnyɛ ɔno. Yei maa Petro kaa sɛ, “Awurade, na sɛ nnipa no akyere wo so.”
46 But Jesus said, Some one touched me; for I perceived that power went out from me.
Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Dabi, obi asɔ mʼatadeɛ mu ɛfiri sɛ, mete nka sɛ tumi bi afiri me mu.”
47 And the woman, seeing that she was discovered, came trembling, and falling down before him declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was cured immediately.
Ɔbaa no hunuu sɛ ɔhinta a ɛrenyɛ yie, ɛno enti, ɔde hu ne ahopopoɔ bɛbuu Yesu nkotodwe wɔ nnipa no nyinaa anim, kyerɛɛ no deɛ enti a ɔsɔɔ ne mu ne sɛdeɛ ne ho atɔ no no.
48 And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Me ba, wo gyidie ama wo ho ayɛ wo den. Fa asomdwoeɛ kɔ.”
49 While he was yet speaking, there cometh one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher any further.
Yesu gu so rekasa no, obi firi Yairo efie bɛka kyerɛɛ Yairo sɛ, “Wo babaa no anya awu enti nha Ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no bio.”
50 But Jesus hearing this, answered him, Fear not; only believe, and she will be made well.
Yesu tee asɛm no, ɔsee Yairo sɛ, “Nsuro, gye di, na wo babaa no bɛnyane anya nkwa.”
51 And going into the house, he suffered no one to go in with him but Peter and John and James, and the father of the maiden, and the mother.
Ɔduruu efie hɔ no, wamma obiara anka ne ho ankɔ ɛdan a abɔfra no da mu no mu gye Petro, Yohane, Yakobo ne abɔfra no awofoɔ nko ara.
52 And all were weeping, and lamenting for her. But he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleeping.
Na nnipa a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa resu, di awerɛhoɔ. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnsu, ɔnwuiɛ na wada.”
53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
Wɔseree no dii ne ho fɛw, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔn deɛ, wɔnim pefee sɛ wawu.
54 But he took hold of her hand, and called aloud, saying, Maiden, arise!
Yesu sɔɔ ne nsa ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Me ba, sɔre!”
55 And her spirit returned, and she immediately arose. And he ordered food to be given to her.
Amonom hɔ ara, ɔsɔreeɛ na Yesu kaa sɛ wɔmma no biribi nni.
56 And her parents were amazed. But he charged them to tell no one what had been done.
Nʼawofoɔ no ho dwirii wɔn yie nanso Yesu bɔɔ wɔn ano sɛ, wɔnnka deɛ asi no nkyerɛ obiara.
