Romans 15

1 Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and ought not to please ourselves.

Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛn a yɛyɛ den wɔ gyidi mu no tumi te wɔn a wɔyɛ mmerɛw no sintɔ ase. Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛsɔ wɔn ani na yɛansɔ yɛn ara ani.

2 Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, in order to build him up.

Yɛn mu biara nkamfo ade pa biara a ne yɔnko yɛ mfa nhyɛ no den.

3 For even Christ did not please himself. Instead, it was just as it is written, “The insults of those who insulted you fell on me.”

Kristo mpo anyɛ nea ɔpɛ, sɛnea Kyerɛwsɛm ka se, “Nnipa a wɔbɔ mo ahohora no bɔ me ahohora nso.”

4 For whatever was previously written was written for our instruction, in order that through patience and through encouragement of the scriptures we would have certain hope.

Biribiara a wɔakyerɛw wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu no, wɔakyerɛw de kyerɛkyerɛ yɛn sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a yɛnam boasetɔ, nkuranhyɛ a Kristo Kyerɛwsɛm no de ma yɛn no so benya anidaso.

5 Now may the God of patience and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with each other according to Christ Jesus.

Onyankopɔn a yenya boasetɔ ne nkuranhyɛ fi ne nkyɛn no mma mo honhom mu nkabom na mode adi Kristo Yesu akyi,

6 May he do this in order that with one mind you may praise with one mouth the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mo nyinaa de koma koro ne ano koro bɛkamfo Onyankopɔn, yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Agya no.

7 Therefore receive one another, even as Christ also received you, to the praise of God.

Munnyigye mo ho mo ho nto mu mfa nkamfo Onyankopɔn sɛnea Kristo agye mo no.

8 For I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision on behalf of God's truth, in order to confirm the promises given to the fathers,

Efisɛ meka kyerɛɛ mo se Kristo Yesu bɛyɛɛ Yudafo somfo de kyerɛɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ ɔnokwafo a ɔbɛma ne bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ agyanom no aba mu,

9 and for the Gentiles to glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, “Therefore I will give praise to you among the Gentiles and sing praise to your name.”

na wama amanamanmufo nso akamfo no wɔ ne mmɔborɔhunu ho sɛnea Kyerɛwsɛm no ka se, “Eyi nti mɛkamfo wo wɔ amanamanmufo mu; na mato nnwom akamfo wo din.”

10 Again it says, “Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.”

Na ɛka bio se, “Mo amanamanmufo, monkamfo Awurade, mo ne ne nkurɔfo Yudafo.”

11 And again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles; let all the peoples praise him.”

Bio, “Amanamanmufo nyinaa nyi Awurade ayɛ; asase so aman nyinaa monkamfo no.”

12 Again, Isaiah says, “The root of Jesse will come, the one who rises to rule over the Gentiles; in him the Gentiles will have hope.”

Na Yesaia ka bio se, “Yisai aseni bɛsɔre, nea ɔbɛsɔre abedi amanaman no so; ɔno na wɔn ani bɛda ne so.”

13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace for believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you will have hope.

Anidaso Nyankopɔn no a mugye no di no mfa anigye ne asomdwoe nhyɛ mo ma, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Honhom Kronkron tumi no bɛma mo anidaso mmoroso.

14 I myself am also convinced about you, my brothers. I am convinced that also you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge. I am convinced that you are also able to exhort one another.

Me nuanom, mʼankasa mete nka sɛ papayɛ ahyɛ mo ma, mowɔ nimdeɛ na mubetumi akyerɛkyerɛ mo ho mo ho.

15 But I am writing more boldly to you about some things in order to remind you again, because of the grace given me by God.

Mede akokoduru akyerɛw abobɔ nneɛma bi so, sɛnea meretwe mo adwene akɔ so bio, esiane adom bi a Onyankopɔn de adom me no nti.

16 This gift was that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus sent to the Gentiles, to offer as a priest the gospel of God. I should do this so that the offering of the Gentiles might become acceptable, consecrated by the Holy Spirit.

Meyɛ Kristo Yesu somfo a ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ asɔfodwuma a mepae mu ka Onyankopɔn Asɛmpa no sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a amanamanmufo bɛyɛ afɔrebɔde a ɛsɔ Onyankopɔn ani a Honhom Kronkron no atew ho.

17 In Christ Jesus I have reason to boast of my service for God.

Ɛno nti mitumi hoahoa me ho wɔ Kristo Yesu mu wɔ Onyankopɔn som yi mu.

18 For I will not dare to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me for the obedience of the Gentiles. These are things done by word and action,

Nea mɛka ho asɛm ara ne sɛnea Kristo nam nea maka ne nea mayɛ so ama amanamanmufo ayɛ osetie ama Onyankopɔn no.

19 by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Holy Spirit. This was so that from Jerusalem, and round about as far as Illyricum, I might fully carry out the gospel of Christ.

Saa nsɛnkyerɛnne ne anwonwade yi yɛ tumi a efi Honhom no mu. Enti efi Yerusalem de kosi Iliriko no, mapae mu aka Kristo Asɛmpa no nyinaa.

20 In this way, my desire has been to proclaim the gospel, but not where Christ is known by name, in order that I might not build upon another man's foundation.

Na me botae ne sɛ, daa mɛka asɛmpa no wɔ mmeaemmeae a wɔntee Kristo ho asɛm da no, na ankɔyɛ sɛ misii dan wɔ obi fapem so.

21 It is as it is written: “Those to whom no tidings of him came will see him, and those who have not heard will understand.”

Mmom sɛnea wɔakyerɛw no: “Wɔn a wɔnkaa ne ho asɛm nkyerɛɛ wɔn no behu, na wɔn a wɔntee no nso bɛte ase.”

22 Therefore I was also hindered many times from coming to you.

Eyi nti na bere biara a mepɛ sɛ meba mo nkyɛn no, biribi siw me kwan.

23 But now, I no longer have any place in these regions, and I have been longing for many years to come to you.

Nanso mprempren a mawie mʼadwuma wɔ saa amantam yi mu, na afei mfe bebree ni a mepɛɛ sɛ anka mɛba abehu mo no nti,

24 I am hopeful that I will see you in passing when I go to Spain, and to be helped by you along my journey there, once I have enjoyed your company for a while.

mayɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛkɔ Spania. Sɛ merekɔ a, mɛpɛ sɛ mehu mo na moaboa me ama makɔ hɔ bere a me ne mo atena anigye so kakraa bi no.

25 But now I am going to Jerusalem, bringing aid to the believers.

Mprempren ara, merekɔ Yerusalem akɔsom Onyankopɔn manfo a wɔwɔ hɔ no.

26 For it was the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution to the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.

Efisɛ asafo a ɛwɔ Makedonia ne Akaia no asi wɔn adwene pi sɛ wɔbɛboa ahiafo a wɔfra Onyankopɔn manfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem no mu.

27 Yes, it was their good pleasure, and, indeed, they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in material things.

Wɔn ara na wosii wɔn adwene pi saa, nanso nokware ni, ɛyɛ wɔn asɛde sɛ wɔboa saa ahiafo no. Amanamanmufo no nyaa Yudafo honhom no mu nhyira no bi. Ɛno nti na ɛsɛ sɛ amanamanmufo no de wɔn ahode som Yudafo no.

28 Therefore, when I have completed this task and have made sure that they have received what was collected, I will go to Spain and visit you on the way.

Sɛ miwie saa dwumadi yi na mekɔ wɔn nkyɛn na mede sika a wɔapɛ no nyinaa ma wɔn a, mefi hɔ akɔ Spania. Na sɛ merekɔ a mɛba mo hɔ abɛsra mo.

29 I know that when I come to you I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.

Sɛ meba mo nkyɛn a, minim sɛ mede Kristo nhyira a ɛboro so no bɛba.

30 Now I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me.

Anuanom, menam yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo ne ɔdɔ a Honhom no de ma me no so hyɛ mo sɛ mo ne me mmɔ mu mmɔ Onyankopɔn mpae dennen mma me.

31 Pray that I may be rescued from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the believers.

Mommɔ mpae, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a asɛm bi rento me wɔ Yudea. Mommɔ mpae mma wɔn a wonnye asɛm no nni. Afei nso mommɔ mpae mma me som a mɛsom wɔ Yerusalem no, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ahotefo a wɔwɔ hɔ no begye ato mu.

32 Pray that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and that I may, together with you, find rest.

Sɛ ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn pɛ a mede ahosɛpɛw bɛba mo nkyɛn abɛsra mo.

33 May the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

Asomdwoe Nyankopɔn no ne mo nyinaa ntena. Amen.
