Luke 5
1 And it came to pass, in the multitude pressing on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret,
Ɛda bi a Yesu reka asɛmpa wɔ Genesaret ɔtadeɛ ho no, nnipakuo bɛkyeree ne so sɛ wɔrebɛtie Onyankopɔn asɛm.
2 and he saw two boats standing beside the lake, and the fishers, having gone away from them, were washing the nets,
Ɔhunuu akodoɔ mmienu a afarefoɔ bi a wɔrehohoro wɔn asau wɔ mu no agya wɔ ɔtadeɛ no ho.
3 and having entered into one of the boats, that was Simon's, he asked him to put back a little from the land, and having sat down, was teaching the multitudes out of the boat.
Yesu kɔtenaa kodoɔ no baako a na ɛyɛ Simon dea no mu. Ɔka kyerɛɛ Simon sɛ ɔmpia nkɔ nsuo no mu kakra sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔbɛtumi afiri hɔ akasa akyerɛ nnipa no.
4 And when he left off speaking, he said unto Simon, 'Put back to the deep, and let down your nets for a draught;'
Yesu wiee nʼasɛnka no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Simon sɛ, “Hare kɔ baabi a emu dɔ kakra na monkɔgu mo asau no na mobɛyi nam bebree.”
5 and Simon answering said to him, 'Master, through the whole night, having laboured, we have taken nothing, but at thy saying I will let down the net.'
Simon kaa sɛ, “Owura, yɛyɛɛ adwuma anadwo mu no nyinaa yɛannya hwee, nanso wʼasɛm enti, yɛbɛgu yɛn asau no.”
6 And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes, and their net was breaking,
Wɔguu asau no na wɔyii nam bebree maa anka mpo asau no retete.
7 and they beckoned to the partners, who [are] in the other boat, having come, to help them; and they came, and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking.
Wɔfrɛɛ wɔn mfɛfoɔ a wɔwɔ kodoɔ baako no mu no ma wɔbɛboaa wɔn twee asau no. Ɛnam no yɛɛ akodoɔ mmienu no nyinaa ma ma a anka ɛreyɛ amemem mpo.
8 And Simon Peter having seen, fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, 'Depart from me, because I am a sinful man, O lord;'
Simon Petro hunuu deɛ aba no, ɔbuu Yesu nkotodwe kaa sɛ, “Me wura, mesrɛ wo, firi me nkyɛn kɔ na meyɛ ɔdebɔneyɛfoɔ a mensɛ sɛ wobɛn me.”
9 for astonishment seized him, and all those with him, at the draught of the fishes that they took,
Ɛnam dodoɔ a wɔyiiɛ no yɛɛ Petro ne nʼahokafoɔ no nwanwa.
10 and in like manner also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon; and Jesus said unto Simon, 'Fear not, henceforth thou shalt be catching men;'
Saa ara nso na ɛyɛɛ Yakobo ne Yohane, Sebedeo mma no nso nwanwa. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Nsuro, ɛfiri ɛnnɛ, wobɛyɛ nnipayifoɔ.”
11 and they, having brought the boats upon the land, having left all, did follow him.
Wɔde akodoɔ no bɛduruu nsuo no ano hɔ no, wɔgyaa wɔn nneɛma nyinaa hɔ bɛdii nʼakyi.
12 And it came to pass, in his being in one of the cities, that lo, a man full of leprosy, and having seen Jesus, having fallen on [his] face, he besought him, saying, 'Sir, if thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me;'
Ɛda bi a Yesu wɔ kuro bi mu no, ɔbarima bi a kwata ayɛ ne honam nyinaa bɛkotoo nʼanim srɛɛ no sɛ, “Owura, mesrɛ wo, sɛ ɛyɛ wo pɛ a, sa me yadeɛ.”
13 and having stretched forth [his] hand, he touched him, having said, 'I will; be thou cleansed;' and immediately the leprosy went away from him.
Ɛhɔ ara Yesu tenee ne nsa de kaa no kaa sɛ, “Aane, ɛyɛ me pɛ. Wo ho mfi.” Amonom hɔ ara, ne ho teeɛ.
14 And he charged him to tell no one, 'But, having gone away, shew thyself to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing according as Moses directed, for a testimony to them;'
Yesu hyɛɛ no sɛ, “Wo ne obiara nni wʼayaresa yi ho nkɔmmɔ. Kɔ na fa wo ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfoɔ na bɔ afɔdeɛ a Mose hyɛɛ sɛ akwatafoɔ a wɔn ho ate no mmɔ sɛ adansedie no.”
15 but the more was the report going abroad concerning him, and great multitudes were coming together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities,
Yesu anwanwadwuma a ɔyɛeɛ yi maa ne ho asɛm trɛɛ mpɔtam hɔ nyinaa maa nnipa bebree bɛtiee no pɛɛ sɛ ɔsa wɔn yadeɛ nso.
16 and he was withdrawing himself in the desert places and was praying.
Nanso na ɔtaa twe ne ho kɔ ɛserɛ so kɔbɔ mpaeɛ.
17 And it came to pass, on one of the days, that he was teaching, and there were sitting by Pharisees and teachers of the Law, who were come out of every village of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem, and the power of the Lord was — to heal them.
Ɛberɛ bi a Yesu rekyerɛkyerɛ no, na Farisifoɔ ne Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ bi a wɔfiri Galilea ne Yudea nkuro ahodoɔ so ne Yerusalem nso wɔ hɔ bi a wɔretie no. Saa ɛberɛ no, na Onyankopɔn ayaresa tumi ahyɛ no ma.
18 And lo, men bearing upon a couch a man, who hath been struck with palsy, and they were seeking to bring him in, and to place before him,
Mmarima bi baa hɔ a wɔso obubuafoɔ bi.
19 and not having found by what way they may bring him in because of the multitude, having gone up on the house-top, through the tiles they let him down, with the little couch, into the midst before Jesus,
Esiane sɛ na wɔntumi mfa nnipakuo no mu nkɔ Yesu nkyɛn enti, wɔforoo ɛdan a Yesu wɔ mu no kɔtuu atifi tokuro, de obubuafoɔ a ɔda ne kɛtɛ so no faa mu gyaagyaa no brɛoo, kɔtoo Yesu anim.
20 and he having seen their faith, said to him, 'Man, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'
Yesu hunuu gyidie a wɔwɔ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔyarefoɔ no sɛ, “Onua, wɔde wo bɔne akyɛ wo.”
21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, 'Who is this that doth speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins, except God only?'
Farisifoɔ no ne Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no tee asɛm a Yesu kaeɛ no, wɔbisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, “Hwan ne saa onipa yi a ɔreka abususɛm yi? Hwan na ɔtumi sɛ ɔde bɔne kyɛ ka Onyankopɔn ho?”
22 And Jesus having known their reasonings, answering, said unto them, 'What reason ye in your hearts?
Esiane sɛ Yesu hunuu deɛ wɔdwennwene enti, ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn enti na modwene sɛ asɛm a mekaeɛ yi yɛ abususɛm?”
23 which is easier — to say, Thy sins have been forgiven thee? or to say, Arise, and walk?
Yesu bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Deɛ ɛwɔ he na ɛyɛ den, sɛ wɔbɛka akyerɛ obi sɛ, wɔde wo bɔne akyɛ wo anaasɛ, wɔbɛka sɛ, sɔre na nante?
24 'And that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority upon the earth to forgive sins — (he said to the one struck with palsy) — I say to thee, Arise, and having taken up thy little couch, be going on to thy house.'
Na sɛ ɛbɛyɛ na mobɛhunu sɛ Onipa Ba no wɔ tumi sɛ ɔde bɔne kyɛ wɔ asase so enti.” Mereka akyerɛ wo sɛ, “Sɔre yi wo kɛtɛ na kɔ efie!”
25 And presently having risen before them, having taken up [that] on which he was lying, he went away to his house, glorifying God,
Amonom hɔ ara, ɔsɔreeɛ, yii ne kɛtɛ kɔɔ efie. Ɔrekɔ no nyinaa na ɔreyi Onyankopɔn ayɛ.
26 and astonishment took all, and they were glorifying God, and were filled with fear, saying — 'We saw strange things to-day.'
Wɔn a wɔgyina hɔ no ho dwirii wɔn. Ehu kaa wɔn. Wɔyii Onyankopɔn ayɛ kaa sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ deɛ, yɛahunu anwanwadeɛ.”
27 And after these things he went forth, and beheld a tax-gatherer, by name Levi, sitting at the tax-office, and said to him, 'Be following me;'
Yei akyi no, Yesu firii hɔ kɔhunuu ɔtogyeni Lewi sɛ ɔte atogyeɛ. Ɔhunuu no no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Bɛdi mʼakyi.”
28 and he, having left all, having arisen, did follow him.
Ɛhɔ ara, Lewi sɔre, gyaa ne nneɛma nyinaa hɔ dii nʼakyi.
29 And Levi made a great entertainment to him in his house, and there was a great multitude of tax-gatherers and others who were with them reclining (at meat),
Akyire yi, Lewi too ɛpono wɔ ne fie maa Yesu. Togyefoɔ ne nnipa ahodoɔ bebree kɔɔ apontoɔ no ase.
30 and the scribes and the Pharisees among them were murmuring at his disciples, saying, 'Wherefore with tax-gatherers and sinners do ye eat and drink?'
Farisifoɔ ne Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no hunuu sɛ Yesu ne saa nnipa no ato nsa redidi no, wɔnwiinwii bisaa no sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wo ne ɔtogyefoɔ ne nnebɔneyɛfoɔ ato nsa redidi?”
31 And Jesus answering said unto them, 'They who are well have no need of a physician, but they that are ill:
Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Wɔn a wɔyare no na ɔyaresafoɔ ho hia wɔn na ɛnyɛ wɔn a wɔnyare.
32 I came not to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.'
Mamma sɛ merebɛfrɛ ateneneefoɔ na mmom mebɛfrɛɛ nnebɔneyɛfoɔ sɛ wɔnsakyera wɔn adwene.”
33 And they said unto him, 'Wherefore do the disciples of John fast often, and make supplications — in like manner also those of the Pharisees — but thine do eat and drink?'
Nnipa no kɔɔ so bisaa no bio sɛ, “Adɛn enti na Yohane Osubɔni asuafoɔ ne Farisifoɔ asuafoɔ no deɛ wɔtaa di mmuada, na wʼasuafoɔ deɛ daa wɔdidi na wɔnom?”
34 And he said unto them, 'Are ye able to make the sons of the bride-chamber — in the bridegroom being with them — to fast?
Yesu nso bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Ɛho hia sɛ wɔn a wɔn ani agye, anaasɛ wɔn a wɔahyia wɔn ayeforɔ ase no di mmuada, wɔ ɛberɛ a ayeforɔ kunu no wɔ wɔn nkyɛn anaa?
35 but days will come, and, when the bridegroom may be taken away from them, then they shall fast in those days.'
Nanso, da bi bɛba a wɔbɛfa ayeforɔkunu no afiri wɔn nkyɛn; saa ɛberɛ no na wɔbɛdi mmuada.”
36 And he spake also a simile unto them — 'No one a patch of new clothing doth put on old clothing, and if otherwise, the new also doth make a rent, and with the old the patch doth not agree, that [is] from the new.
Yesu buu wɔn bɛ yi sɛ, “Obi mmfa ntoma foforɔ ntare ntoma dada mu. Ɔyɛ saa a foforɔ no bɛma dada no asuane. Afei, ɛbɛma nsonsonoeɛ ada foforɔ no ne dada no ntam.
37 'And no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, and itself will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;
Obiara nso mmfa nsã foforɔ ngu mmoa nwoma nsã nkotokuo dada mu. Ɔyɛ saa a, nsã no bɛpaapae nkotokuo no na ahwie agu na nkotokuo no nso asɛe.
38 but new wine into new skins is to be put, and both are preserved together;
Yei enti, nsã nkotokuo foforɔ mu nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde nsã foforɔ gugu.
39 and no one having drunk old [wine], doth immediately wish new, for he saith, The old is better.'
Obi nnnom nsã dada nnwie mmisa nsã foforɔ ase. Deɛ ɔnom no ka sɛ, ‘dada no na ɛyɛ.’”
