Mark 1
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ;
Asɛmpa a ɛfa Yesu Kristo, Onyankopɔn Ba no ho no mfiase ni.
2 as it is written in Isaiah the prophet: “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way;”
Wɔakyerɛw wɔ Odiyifo Yesaia nhoma no mu se, “Mɛsoma me bɔfo adi wʼanim kan. Ɔno na obesiesie ɔkwan ama wo.”
3 “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths!”
“Obi nne reteɛ mu wɔ sare so, ‘Munsiesie ɔkwan mma Awurade, mommɔ akwan a ɛteɛ mma no.’”
4 John the Baptizer appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
Enti Yohane ba bɛbɔɔ asu wɔ sare so, ɔkaa adwensakra asubɔ a ɛma bɔnefakyɛ ho asɛm.
5 And there went out to him all the country of Judaea, and all they of Jerusalem and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
Nnipa fifi Yerusalem ne Yudea nkurow nyinaa so kohuu Yohane tiee no. Na wɔkaa wɔn bɔne kyerɛɛ no no, ɔbɔɔ wɔn asu wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan mu.
6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a leathern girdle about his loins, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
Na Yohane hyɛ atade a wɔde yoma nwi na apam a aboa nhoma abɔso nso bɔ mu. Na nʼaduan yɛ mmoadabi ne ɛwo.
7 And he preached, saying, There cometh after me one mightier than I, the latchet of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.
Ɔrekyerɛkyerɛ no, ɔkae se, “Ɛrenkyɛ koraa, obi bɛba a ɔwɔ tumi sen me, a ne mpaboa hama mpo, mensɛ sɛ mekotow na masan.
8 I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.
Me de, mede nsu na ɛbɔ mo asu, na ɔno de, ɔde Honhom Kronkron na ɛbɛbɔ mo asu!”
9 And it came to pass that in those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
Saa bere no mu na Yesu fi Nasaret a ɛwɔ Galileaman mu ba maa Yohane bɔɔ no asu wɔ asubɔnten Yordan mu.
10 And immediately on coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens parted, and the Spirit descending as a dove upon him.
Yesu fii asu no mu sii konkɔn so ara pɛ, ohuu sɛ ɔsoro abue, na Honhom Kronkron resian sɛ aborɔnoma aba ne so.
11 And there was a voice from the heavens, “Thou art my beloved Son; with thee I am well pleased.”
Na nne bi fi ɔsoro kae se, “Wone me Dɔba a wosɔ mʼani.”
12 And immediately the Spirit driveth him forth into the wilderness.
Ɛhɔ ara, Honhom Kronkron de Yesu kɔɔ sare so.
13 And he was in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.
Ɔtenaa hɔ adaduanan a na wuram mmoa na ɛka ne ho. Ɛhɔ na ɔbonsam sɔɔ no hwɛe. Akyiri no, abɔfo ba bɛsom no.
14 But after John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the glad tidings of God,
Ɔhene Herode kyeree Yohane akyi no, Yesu kɔɔ Galilea kɔkaa asɛmpa no wɔ hɔ.
15 [[saying, ]] The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent, and believe the glad tidings.
Ɔkae se, “Bere no awie du! Onyankopɔn ahenni no abɛn. Monsakra mo adwene na munnye asɛmpa no nni!”
16 And as he was passing along by the lake of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon dragging a net in the lake; for they were fishers.
Da bi a Yesu nam Galilea mpoano no, ohuu Simon ne ne nua Andrea sɛ wɔregu asau.
17 And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will cause you to become fishers of men.
Yesu frɛɛ wɔn se, “Mummedi mʼakyi! Na mɛma mo ayɛ nnipayifo.”
18 And immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
Ɛhɔ ara, wogyaw wɔn asau no guu hɔ kodii nʼakyi.
19 And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending the nets;
Ɔkɔɔ nʼanim kakra no, ohuu Sebedeo mma baanu a wɔfrɛ ɔbaako Yohane, na ɔbaako nso de Yakobo, sɛ wɔte ɔkorow mu reyɛ wɔn asau ho adwuma.
20 and immediately he called them. And leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, they went after him.
Ɔfrɛɛ wɔn nso se wommedi nʼakyi. Ntɛm ara na wogyaw wɔn agya Sebedeo ne nʼapaafo hɔ wɔ ɔkorow no mu bedii nʼakyi.
21 And they enter Capernaum; and immediately on the sabbath he was teaching in the synagogue.
Yesu ne nʼakyidifo yi beduu Kapernaum. Na Homeda duu no, ɔkɔɔ asɔredan mu kɔkaa asɛmpa no.
22 And they were astonished at his teaching; for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
Nnipa no tee asɛm no maa wɔn ho dwiriw wɔn, efisɛ ɔkasaa te sɛ obi a ɔwɔ tumi, na mmom wankasa sɛ Kyerɛwsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfo no.
23 And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
Amono mu hɔ ara na ɔbarima bi a ɔwɔ wɔn hyiadan no mu hɔ a ɔwɔ honhommɔne teɛɛ mu se,
24 saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Thou hast come to destroy us; we know who thou art, the Holy One of God.
“Dɛn na wo Nasareni Yesu ne yɛn wɔ yɛ? Woaba sɛ worebɛsɛe yɛn ana? Minim wo sɛ wone Onyankopɔn Ba Kronkron no!”
25 And Jesus rebuked him, [[saying, ]] Be silent, and come out of him.
Yesu teɛteɛɛ honhommɔne no se, “Mua wʼano! Fi ne mu kɔ!”
26 And the unclean spirit convulsing him, and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him.
Honhommɔne no wosow saa ɔbarima no na ɔteɛteɛɛ mu dennen maa ne tu kɔe.
27 And they were all amazed, so that they questioned each other, saying, What is this? New teaching with authority; even the unclean spirits doth he command, and they obey him!
Nnipa no nyinaa ho dwiriw wɔn ma wobisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se. “Nkyerɛkyerɛ foforo bɛn ni? Ahonhommɔne mpo tie ne nne!”
28 And immediately his fame spread abroad everywhere through the whole surrounding country of Galilee.
Saa anwonwade a ɔyɛe yi ho nsɛm trɛw faa Galileaman mu nyinaa.
29 And having come out of the synagogue, they immediately entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
Wofii hyiadan no mu no, wɔne Yakobo ne Yohane kɔɔ Simon ne Andrea fi.
30 And Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever; and they immediately speak to him about her.
Na Simon asebea da mpa so a atiridii akyere no, na wɔkaa ne ho asɛm kyerɛɛ Yesu.
31 And he went to her, and took her by the hand, and raised her up; and the fever left her, and she waited on them.
Yesu kɔɔ faako a ɔda hɔ kosoo ne nsa ma ɔsɔre tenaa ase. Ɛhɔ ara na atiridii no tu fii ne so ma ofii ase twɛn wɔn.
32 And in the evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all that were sick, and those who were possessed by demons;
Eduu anwummere no, nnipa no de ayarefo ne wɔn a wɔwɔ ahonhommɔne brɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔnsa wɔn yare.
33 and the whole city was assembled at the door.
Kurow mu no nyinaa bɛboaa wɔn ho ano wɔ ofi no abobow ano,
34 And he healed many that were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he suffered not the demons to speak, because they knew him.
na Yesu saa ayarefo bebree yare. Otuu ahonhommɔne bebree nso. Nanso, wamma ahonhommɔne no ankasa, efisɛ, na wonim no.
35 And rising early, long before day, he went out, and withdrew into a desert place, and there prayed.
Ahemadakye a na anim ntetewee no, Yesu sɔre fii fie hɔ kɔɔ baabi a ɛhɔ yɛ dinn, kɔbɔɔ mpae wɔ hɔ.
36 And Simon and those with him went in search of him,
Simon ne wɔn a wɔka ne ho fii adi kɔhwehwɛɛ no,
37 and found him. And they say to him, All people are in search of thee.
na wohuu no no, wɔteɛɛ mu kae se, “Nnipa bebree rehwehwɛ wo!”
38 And he saith to them, Let us go elsewhere into the neighboring towns, that I may preach there also; for, for this I came forth.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ nkurow a aka no so, na mekɔka mʼasɛm kyerɛ wɔn, efisɛ, ɛno nti na mebae.”
39 And he went, preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and casting out the demons.
Enti, ɔkɔɔ Galileaman mu baabiara kɔkaa asɛmpa no wɔ asɔredan mu, tuu ahonhommɔne bebree nso.
40 And there cometh a leper to him beseeching him, and kneeling down, saying to him, If thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.
Ɔkwatani bi bɛkotow no srɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ ɛyɛ wo pɛ a, wubetumi ama me ho afi.”
41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith, I will; be thou cleansed.
Yesu huu ɔkwatani no mmɔbɔ, enti ɔde ne nsa kaa no kae se, “Mepɛ! Wo ho mfi!”
42 And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.
Amono mu hɔ ara, ne ho fi maa ne ho tɔɔ no!
43 And sternly charging him, he immediately sent him away,
Yesu bɔɔ nʼano denneennen se,
44 saying to him, See that thou say nothing to any one; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing what Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
“Nka saa asɛm yi nkyerɛ obiara, na mmom fa wo ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfo. Sɛ worekɔ a fa wʼafɔrebɔde a Mose ahyɛ sɛ akwatafo a wɔasa wɔn yare mfa nka wɔn ho nkɔ no ka wo ho kɔ sɛnea ɛbɛma obiara ahu sɛ wo ho atɔ wo.”
45 But he went away, and began to publish it constantly, and to spread the matter abroad, so that Jesus could no more enter a city openly, but was without in desert places; and they came to him from every quarter.
Nanso ɔrekɔ no nyinaa, na ɔde nteɛteɛmu rebɔ nʼayaresa no ho dawuru. Esiane eyi nti sɛ Yesu kɔ baabiara a, nnipadɔm betwa ne ho hyia. Ɛno nti na baabiara a ɔbɛkɔ no onnyi ne ho adi. Enti ɔtenaa sare so hɔ maa nnipa bebree baa ne nkyɛn.
