John 13
1 Now, before the feast of the passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come, that he should remove out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own that were in the world, unto the end, loved them.
Ade rebɛkye ama Twam Afahyɛ no adu no, Yesu huu sɛ afei bere aso sɛ ofi wiase kɔ nʼAgya nkyɛn. Yesu yɛ obi a na ɔdɔ nʼakyidifo, na ɔdɔɔ wɔn kosii sɛ owui.
2 And, supper, being in progress, the adversary, having already thrust into the heart of Judas son of Simon Iscariot, that he should deliver him up, —
Bere a na Yesu ne nʼasuafo te adidii no, ɔbonsam kɔhyɛɛ Yuda Iskariot a ɔyɛ Simon ba no mu sɛ onyi Yesu mma.
3 [Jesus] knowing that, all things, the Father had given unto him, into his hands, and that, from God, he had come, and, unto God, he was going,
Yesu nim sɛ nʼAgya de tumi nyinaa ahyɛ ne nsa, na ofi Onyankopɔn nkyɛn na ɔbae, na ɔresan akɔ ne nkyɛn.
4 rouseth himself out of the supper, and layeth aside his garments, and taking a linen cloth, girded himself.
Yesu sɔre fii didipon no ho, yii nʼatade nguguso guu hɔ, de mpepaho twaa nʼasen.
5 Next, he poureth water into the wash-basin, and began to be washing the feet of the disciples, and to be wiping them with the linen cloth wherewith he was girded.
Ohwiee nsu guu guasɛn bi mu na ofii ase hohoroo asuafo no anan ase de mpepaho no pepae.
6 So he cometh unto Simon Peter. He saith unto him—Lord, dost, thou, wash my feet?
Bere a Yesu duu Simon Petro so no, Petro bisaa no se. “Awurade, worebɛhohoro me nan ase ana?”
7 Jesus answered, and said unto him—What, I, am doing, thou, knowest not, as yet; howbeit, thou shalt got to know, hereafter.
Yesu buaa no se, “Nea mereyɛ yi, worente ase mprempren, nanso akyiri no wobɛte ase.”
8 Peter saith unto him—In nowise shalt thou, ever, wash my feet. Jesus answered him—If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. (aiōn g165)
Petro ampene asɛm a ɔkae no so kae se, “Ɛnyɛ wo na ɛsɛ sɛ wohohoro mʼanan ase.” Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛ manhohoro wʼanan ase a na wonka me ho.” (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Peter saith unto him—Lord! not my feet only, but my hands also, and my head.
Simon Petro kae se, “Awurade, ɛno de na ɛnyɛ mʼanan ase nko, na mmom me nsa ho ne me tirim nso ka ho.”
10 Jesus saith unto him—He that hath bathed himself, hath no need [save as to the feet] to get washed; but is pure, as a whole. And, ye, are, pure, but not ye, all.
Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Obiara a waguare no aguaree ho nhia no bio gye nʼanan ase nko na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhohoro, ne nipadua no de, efi biara nni ho. Mo nyinaa ho afi, gye mo mu baako pɛ.”
11 For he know the man that was delivering him up; therefore, said he—Not ye all, are pure.
Na Yesu nim onipa ko a ɔrebeyi no ama no, ɛno nti na ɔkae se ɛnyɛ wɔn nyinaa na wɔn ho afi no.
12 When, therefore, he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, and reclined, again said he unto them—Are ye taking note, what I have done unto you?
Yesu hohoroo wɔn anan ase wiei no, ɔfaa nʼatade nguguso no hyɛe, san kɔtenaa didipon no ho. Afei obisaa nʼasuafo no se, “Mote nea mayɛ yi ase ana?
13 Ye, call me, The Teacher, and, The Lord, —and, well, say, for I am.
Mofrɛ me ‘Kyerɛkyerɛfo’ ne ‘Awurade’ a mudi me frɛ; efisɛ ɛno ne nea meyɛ.
14 If then, I, have washed your feet, —[I] The Lord, and, The Teacher, ye also, ought to wash, one another’s, feet;
Sɛ me a meyɛ mo Awurade ne Kyerɛkyerɛfo no mpo ahohoro mʼanan ase a ɛno de, na ɛsɛ sɛ mo nso mohohoro hohoro mo ho mo ho anan ase.
15 For, an example, have I given you, —that, just as, I, did unto you, ye also, should be doing.
Mayɛ eyi de ayɛ nhwɛso ama mo sɛnea mo nso mobɛyɛ saa ara.
16 Verily, verily, I say unto you—A servant is not greater than his lord, neither one sent forth greater than he that sent him.
Mereka nokware akyerɛ mo se, akoa nsen ne wura; saa ara na ɔsomafo nso nsen nea ɔsomaa no no.
17 If, these things, ye know, happy, are ye, if ye be doing them.
Afei a moate nea meyɛe no ase yi, sɛ moyɛ saa bi a mubenya nhyira.
18 Not, concerning you all, am I speaking, —for, I, know of whom I made choice; but…that, the Scripture, might be fulfilled: He that feedeth on my bread, hath lifted up against me, his heel.
“Ɛnyɛ mo nyinaa na mereka saa asɛm yi akyerɛ mo, minim wɔn a mayi wɔn. Nanso ɛsɛ sɛ Kyerɛwsɛm a ɛka se, ‘Onipa a ɔne me to nsa didi no beyi me ama’ no ba mu.
19 Henceforth, I tell you, before it cometh to pass, —that ye may believe, whensoever it doth come to pass, that, I, am he.
“Mereka eyinom nyinaa akyerɛ mo ansa na aba mu sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mubegye adi.
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you—He that receiveth whomsoever I shall send, receiveth, me; and, he that receiveth, me, receiveth him that sent me.
Mereka nokware akyerɛ mo se, obiara a obegye nea masoma no no gye me nso, na obiara a ogye me nso no gye nea ɔsomaa me no.”
21 These things, having said, Jesus, was troubled in spirit, and bare witness, and said—Verily, verily, I say unto you—One from among you, will deliver me up.
Yesu kaa eyinom nyinaa wiei no, ne ho yeraw no ma ɔpaee mu kae se, “Mereka nokware akyerɛ mo, mo mu baako beyi me ama!”
22 The disciples began to look one at another, being at a loss concerning whom he was speaking.
Asuafo no de ahodwiriw hwehwɛɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho anim pɛɛ sɛ wohu nea ɔde no no.
23 One of Jesus’ disciples was reclining in his bosom, one whom Jesus loved:
Na asuafo no mu baako a Yesu pɛ nʼasɛm no te ne nkyɛn pɛɛ.
24 so Simon Peter beckoneth unto the same, and saith unto him—Say, Who is it? concerning whom he speaketh.
Simon Petro buu nʼani se, “Bisa no na ɔnkyerɛ wo onipa ko a ɔreka ne ho asɛm no.”
25 He, falling back thus, upon the breast of Jesus, saith unto him—Lord! who is it?
Ɛno nti saa osuani no twiw bɛn Yesu bisaa no se, “Awurade, ɛyɛ hena?”
26 Jesus, therefore, answereth—That one, it is, for whom, I, shall dip the morsel, and give unto him. So, dipping the morsel, he taketh and giveth it unto Judas, son of Simon Iscariot.
Yesu buae se, “Nea mede brodo bɛbɔ mu ama no no, ɔno na obeyi me ama.” Na ɔde brodo bɔɔ mu maa Yuda Iskariot a ɔyɛ Simon ba no.
27 And, after the morsel, then, entered, Satan, into that man. Jesus, therefore, saith unto him—What thou art doing, do quickly!
Bere a Yuda gyee brodo no pɛ, na ɔbonsam bɛhyɛɛ ne mu. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nea wopɛ sɛ woyɛ no, yɛ no ntɛm!”
28 But, as to this, none of them who were reclining with him knew respecting what, he said it to him.
Wɔn a na wɔte adidii no mu biara ante asɛm a Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no no ase.
29 For, some, were thinking, since Judas held the bag, that Jesus was saying to him—Buy the things of which we have, need, for the feast; or that, unto the destitute, he should give something.
Esiane sɛ Yuda na ɔhwɛ asuafo no sika so nti, na wosusuw sɛ Yesu reka akyerɛ no se ɔnkɔtɔ biribi a ɛho hia ma afahyɛ no anaasɛ ɔnkɔma ahiafo biribi.
30 So, he, taking the morsel, went out straightway; —and it was night.
Yuda gyee brodo no pɛ na ofii adi; saa bere no na ɛyɛ anadwo.
31 When, therefore, he had gone out, Jesus saith—Just now, was, the Son of Man, glorified, and, God, was glorified in him;
Yuda fii adi kɔe akyi no, Yesu kae se, “Afei na Onipa Ba no anuonyam ada adi; na Onyankopɔn nam Ɔba no so ada nʼanuonyam adi.
32 And, God, will glorify him, in himself, —and, straightway, glorify him.
Na sɛ ɛnam Ɔba no so na Onyankopɔn anuonyam da adi a, Onyankopɔn nso nam ne tumi so bɛda Onipa Ba no anuonyam adi. Ɔbɛyɛ eyi ntɛm so.
33 Dear children! Yet a little, am I, with you. Ye shall seek me, and, just as I said unto the Jews, Whither, I, go, ye, cannot come, unto you also, I say it, even now.
“Me mma, ɛrenkyɛ biara na megyaw mo hɔ. Sɛnea meka kyerɛɛ Yudafo mpanyin no, mobɛhwehwɛ me nanso morentumi mma faako a merekɔ hɔ no.
34 A new commandment, give I unto you, —That ye be loving one another: Just as I loved you, that, ye also, be loving one another:
“Ahyɛde foforo na mede regyaw mo sɛ, ‘Monnodɔ mo ho mo ho sɛnea medɔ mo no.
35 By this, shall all men take knowledge, that, my disciples, ye are, —If ye have, love, one to another.
Na sɛ mododɔ mo ho mo ho a obiara behu sɛ moyɛ mʼasuafo.’”
36 Simon Peter saith unto him—Lord! whither dost thou withdraw? Jesus answered—Whither I withdraw, thou canst not, now, follow me, but thou shalt follow, hereafter.
Simon Petro bisaa Yesu se “Awurade, ɛhe na worekɔ?” Yesu buaa no se, “Faako a merekɔ no de, worentumi nni mʼakyi; daakye bi wobɛba abɛka me ho.”
37 Peter saith unto him—Lord! why, cannot I follow thee, even now? My life, in thy behalf, will I lay down.
Petro bisaa no se, “Awurade, adɛn nti na merentumi nni wʼakyi saa bere yi? Ɛyɛ owu mpo a, mewu ama wo.”
38 Jesus answereth—Thy life, in my behalf, wilt thou lay down? Verily, verily, I say unto thee—In nowise shall a cock crow till thou hast denied me, thrice.
Yesu bisaa no se, “Woasiesie wo ho ampa ara sɛ wubewu ama me ana? Mereka nokware akyerɛ wo se, ansa na akokɔ bɛbɔn no, na woapa me mprɛnsa.”
