Romans 15

1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

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

2 Let every one of us please [his] neighbor for [his] good to edification.

Yɛn mu biara nkamfo adepa biara ne yɔnko yɛ, mfa nhyɛ no den.

3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.

Kristo mpo anyɛ deɛ ɔpɛ, sɛdeɛ Atwerɛsɛm ka sɛ, “Nnipa a wɔbɔ mo ahohora no bɔ me ahohora nso.”

4 For whatever things were written formerly, were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

Biribiara a wɔatwerɛ wɔ Atwerɛsɛm no mu no, wɔatwerɛ de kyerɛkyerɛ yɛn sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, yɛnam boasetɔ, nkuranhyɛ a Kristo Atwerɛsɛm no de ma yɛn no so bɛnya anidasoɔ.

5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be like-minded one towards another according to Christ Jesus:

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

6 That ye may with one mind [and] one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, mo nyinaa de akoma korɔ ne ano korɔ bɛkamfo Onyankopɔn, yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Agya no.

7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

Momma mo ho nka mo ho mo ho mfa nhyɛ Onyankopɔn animuonyam sɛdeɛ Kristo agye mo no.

8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises [made] to the fathers:

Ɛfiri sɛ, meka kyerɛɛ mo sɛ, Kristo Yesu bɛyɛɛ Yudafoɔ ɔsomfoɔ de kyerɛɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ ɔnokwafoɔ a ɔbɛma ne bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ agyanom no aba mu,

9 And that the Gentiles might glorify God for [his] mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name.

na wama amanamanmufoɔ nso akamfo no wɔ ne mmɔborɔhunu ho, sɛdeɛ Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Yei enti, mɛkamfo wo wɔ amanamanmufoɔ mu; na mato nnwom akamfo wo din.”

10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.

Na ɛka bio sɛ, “Mo amanamanmufoɔ, monkamfo Awurade, mo ne ne nkurɔfoɔ, Yudafoɔ.”

11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people.

Na bio, “Amanamanmufoɔ nyinaa nyi Awurade ayɛ; asase so aman nyinaa monkamfo no.”

12 And again Isaiah saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.

Na bio Yesaia ka sɛ, “Yisai aseni bɛsɔre, deɛ ɔbɛsɔre abɛdi amanaman no so; ɔno na wɔn ani bɛda ne so.”

13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Anidasoɔ Onyankopɔn no a mogye no die no mfa anigyeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ nhyɛ mo ma, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Honhom Kronkron tumi no bɛma mo anidasoɔ mmorosoɔ.

14 And I myself also am persuaded concerning you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

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

15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly to you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me from God.

Mede akokoɔduru atwerɛ abobɔ nneɛma bi so, sɛdeɛ meretwe mo adwene akɔ so bio, ɛsiane adom bi a Onyankopɔn de adom me no enti.

16 That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

Meyɛ Kristo Yesu ɔsomfoɔ a ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ asɔfodwuma a mepae mu ka Onyankopɔn Asɛmpa no sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, amanamanmufoɔ bɛyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛsɔ Onyankopɔn ani a Honhom Kronkron no ate ho.

17 I have therefore cause for glorying through Jesus Christ, in those things which pertain to God.

Ɛno enti, metumi hoahoa me ho wɔ Kristo Yesu mu wɔ Onyankopɔn som yi mu.

18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,

Deɛ mɛka ho asɛm ara ne sɛdeɛ Kristo nam deɛ maka ne deɛ mayɛ so ama amanamanmufoɔ ayɛ ɔsetie ama Onyankopɔn.

19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and around to Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

Saa nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ne anwanwadeɛ yi yɛ tumi a ɛfiri Honhom no mu. Enti, ɛfiri Yerusalem kɔka Iliriko, mapae mu aka Kristo Asɛmpa no nyinaa.

20 And so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

Na me botaeɛ ne sɛ, daa mɛka asɛmpa no wɔ mmeammea a wɔntee Kristo ho asɛm da no, na ankɔyɛ sɛ mesii dan wɔ obi fapem so.

21 But as it is written, They shall see to whom he was not spoken of: and they that have not heard shall understand.

Mmom sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ no: “Wɔn a wɔnkaa ne ho asɛm nkyerɛɛ wɔn no bɛhunu, na wɔn a wɔnteeɛ no nso bɛte aseɛ.”

22 For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you.

Yei enti na ɛberɛ biara a mepɛ sɛ meba mo nkyɛn no, biribi si me ɛkwan.

23 But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you;

Nanso, seesei a mawie mʼadwuma wɔ saa amantam yi mu, na afei mfeɛ bebree ni a mepɛɛ sɛ anka mɛba abɛhunu mo no enti,

24 Whenever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I shall be somewhat filled with your [company].

mayɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛkɔ Spania. Sɛ merekɔ a, mɛpɛ sɛ mɛhunu mo na moaboa me ama makɔ hɔ ɛberɛ a me ne mo atena anigyeɛ so kakra bi no.

25 But now I go to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

Seesei ara, merekɔ Yerusalem makɔsom Onyankopɔn manfoɔ a wɔwɔ hɔ no.

26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who are at Jerusalem.

Ɛfiri sɛ, asafo a ɛwɔ Makedonia ne Akaia no asi wɔn adwene pi sɛ wɔbɛboa ahiafoɔ a wɔfra Onyankopɔn manfoɔ a wɔwɔ Yerusalem no mu.

27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in carnal things.

Wɔn ara na wɔsii wɔn adwene pi saa, nanso nokorɛm, ɛyɛ wɔn asɛdeɛ sɛ wɔboa saa ahiafoɔ no. Amanamanmufoɔ no nyaa Yudafoɔ honhom no mu nhyira no bi. Ɛno enti na ɛsɛ sɛ amanamanmufoɔ no de wɔn ahodeɛ som Yudafoɔ no.

28 When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go by you into Spain.

Sɛ mewie saa dwumadie yi na mekɔ wɔn nkyɛn na mede sika a wɔapɛ no nyinaa ma wɔn a, mɛfiri hɔ akɔ Spania. Na sɛ merekɔ a, mɛduru mo hɔ mabɛsra mo.

29 And I am sure that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

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

30 Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye 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 mpaeɛ denden mma me.

31 That I may be delivered from them in Judea who do not believe; and that my service which [I have] for Jerusalem, may be acceptable to the saints;

Mommɔ mpaeɛ, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, asɛm bi rento me wɔ Yudea. Mommɔ mpaeɛ mma wɔn a wɔnnye asɛm no nni. Afei nso, mommɔ mpaeɛ mma me som a mɛsom wɔ Yerusalem no, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ahotefoɔ a wɔwɔ hɔ no bɛgye atom.

32 That I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.

Sɛ ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn pɛ a, mede ahosɛpɛ bɛba mo nkyɛn mabɛsra mo.

33 Now the God of peace [be] with you all. Amen.

Asomdwoeɛ Onyankopɔn no ne mo nyinaa ntena. Amen.
