Asomafo 28
1 Yeduu mpoano hɔ no, ankyɛ na yehuu sɛ yɛwɔ supɔw Malta so.
And when they were scaped then they knewe that the yle was called Milete.
2 Supɔw no sofo no gyee yɛn fɛw so. Esiane sɛ na osu atɔ ama awɔw aba nti, wɔsɔɔ ogya ma yɛtoe.
And the people of the countre shewed vs no lytell kyndnes: for they kyndled a fyre and receaved vs every one because of the present rayne and because of colde.
3 Paulo bubuu mmabaa sɛ ɔde regu ogya no mu. Ɔde regu mu no, ɔwɔ bi a ogya no hyew aka no no bebaree ne nsa ho.
And when Paul had gaddered a boundle of stickes and put them into the fyre ther came a viper out of the heet and lept on his honde.
4 Supɔw no sofo no huu ɔwɔ no sɛ ɔbebare ne nsa ho no, wɔkae se, “Saa onipa yi yɛ owudifo a wanya ne ti adidi mu wɔ po akwanhyia mu, nanso esiane ne bɔne nti owu ara na etwa sɛ owu.”
When the men of the contre sawe the worme hange on his honde they sayde amonge the selves: this man must nedes be a mortherer. Whome (though he have escaped the see) yet vengeaunce suffreth not to lyve.
5 Paulo petee ɔwɔ no too ogya no mu a hwee anyɛ no.
But he shouke of the vermen into the fyre and felt no harme.
6 Na nkurɔfo no nyinaa susuw sɛ Paulo bɛhonhon anaasɛ obetwa ahwe awu. Nanso wɔtwɛn ara a biribiara anyɛ no no, wɔsakraa wɔn adwene kae se, “Ɔyɛ onyame bi.”
Howbeit they wayted when he shuld have swolne or fallen doune deed sodenly. But after they had loked a greate whyle and sawe no harme come to him they chaunged their myndes and sayde that he was a God.
7 Na ɔpanyin a ɔhwɛ supɔw no so a wɔfrɛ no Publio no fi bɛn mpoano hɔ; ogyee yɛn fɛw so som yɛn hɔho nnansa.
In the same quarters the chefe man of the yle whose name was Publius had a lordshippe: the same receaved vs and lodged vs thre dayes courteously.
8 Saa bere no ara na Publio agya yare atiridii ne konkoruwa a aka no ato hɔ. Paulo kɔɔ ɔdan a na ɔda mu no mu de ne nsa guu no so, bɔɔ mpae maa ne ho yɛɛ no den.
And it fortuned that the father of Publius laye sicke of a fiever and of a bluddy flixe. To who Paul entred in and prayde and layde his hondes on him and healed him.
9 Nea Paulo yɛe no maa ayarefo a wɔwɔ supɔw no so no nyinaa baa ne nkyɛn ma ɔsaa wɔn yare.
When this was done other also which had diseases in the yle came and were healed.
10 Wɔmaa yɛn akyɛde bebree. Yɛrebefi hɔ akɔ no nso wɔde biribiara a ɛho hia yɛn no beguu hyɛn no mu maa yɛn.
And they dyd vs gret honoure. And when we departed they laded vs with thinges necessary.
11 Yedii asram abiɛsa wɔ supɔw no so ansa na yenyaa hyɛn bi a efi Aleksandria a ne nsɛnkyerɛnne yɛ eti abien a egyina hɔ ma anyame baanu bi. Na saa hyɛn no abedi awɔwbere no wɔ supɔw no so.
After thre monethes we departed in a ship of Alexandry which had wyntred in the yle whose badge was Castor and Pollux.
12 Yeduu Sidarakusa no, yedii nnansa wɔ hɔ.
And whe we came to Cyracusa we taryed there. iii. dayes.
13 Yefi hɔ toaa so koduu Regio. Ade kyee no, mframa bi bɔ fii anafo fam ma nnaanu akyi no yekoduu Puteoli.
And from thence we set a compasse and came to Regium. And after one daye the south wynde blewe and we came the next daye to Putiolus:
14 Ɛha na yehyiaa agyidifo bi a wɔsrɛɛ yɛn se yɛntena wɔn nkyɛn nnaawɔtwe. Ɛno akyi no, yɛtoaa so koduu Roma.
where we founde brethren and were desyred to tary with them seven dayes and so came to Rome.
15 Anuanom a wɔwɔ Roma no tee yɛn nka sɛ yɛreba no, ebinom behyiaa yɛn kwan wɔ aguabɔbea a ɛwɔ Apia kwan no so na afoforo nso hyiaa yɛn wɔ ahɔhobea bi a wɔfrɛ no Ahɔhodan Abiɛsa no. Bere a Paulo huu wɔn no, ne ho san no na ɔdaa Onyankopɔn ase.
And from thence when ye brethren hearde of vs they came agaynst vs to Apiphorum and to ye thre taverns. When Paul sawe the he thanked God and wexed bolde.
16 Yeduu Roma no, wɔmaa Paulo ho kwan sɛ ɔnkɔtena baabiara a ɔpɛ na ɔsraani bi nwɛn no.
And when he came to Rome ye vnder captayne delyvered ye presoners to ye chefe captayne of ye host: but Paul was suffered to dwell by him selfe with one soudier that kept him.
17 Nnansa akyi no, Paulo frɛɛ Yudafo mpanyin ne wɔn hyiae. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Anuanom, ɛwɔ mu sɛ manyɛ bɔne biara antia yɛn man ne yɛn amanne a yɛn agyanom de gyaw sɛ yɛn no de, nanso wɔkyeree me sɛ odeduani wɔ Yerusalem de me hyɛɛ Romafo nsa.
And it fortuned after thre dayes that Paul called ye chefe of ye Iewes together. And whe they were come he sayde vnto the: Men and brethren though I have comitted nothinge agaynst the people or lawes of oure fathers: yet was I delyvered presoner from Ierusalem in to the hondes of ye Romayns.
18 Wobisaa me nsɛm pɛɛ sɛ wogyaa me, efisɛ wɔannya afɔbude bi wɔ me ho a ɛno nti ɛsɛ sɛ wogyina so kum me.
Which when they had examined me wolde have let me goo because they founde no cause of deeth in me.
19 Nanso bere a Yudafo kasatia gyae a wɔpɛ sɛ wogyaa me no, mihuu sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ miguan toa Kaesare. Ɛnyɛ me nkurɔfo ho adwemmɔne a mewɔ nti na meyɛɛ saa.
But when ye Iewes cryed cotrary I was constrayned to appeale vnto Cesar: not because I had ought to accuse my people of.
20 Eyi nti na mepɛɛ sɛ mihu mo na me ne mo kasa no; na onipa a Israelfo ani da no so no nti na nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn gu me yi.”
For this cause have I called for you eve to se you and to speake with you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bounde with this chayne.
21 Wobuaa Paulo se, “Yennyaa nhoma biara a efi Yudea a ɛfa wo ho na yɛntee wo ho asɛmmɔne biara nso mfii anuanom a wofi hɔ ba ha no nso nkyɛn.
And they sayde vnto him: We nether receaved letters out of Iewry pertayninge vnto ye nether came eny of the brethren that shewed or spake eny harme of the.
22 Nanso yɛpɛ sɛ yehu wʼadwene, efisɛ yenim sɛ nnipa kasa tia Kristofo a wo nso woka wɔn ho no wɔ baabiara.”
But we will heare of the what thou thynkest. For we have hearde of this secte that every wheare it is spoken agaynst.
23 Wɔhyɛɛ da bi sɛ wobehyia Paulo. Saa da no dui no, nnipa bebree kɔɔ ne nkyɛn wɔ faako a ɔte hɔ no. Ɔkaa Onyankopɔn ahenni no ho asɛm kyerɛɛ wɔn. Ɔnam Mose mmara ne nsɛm a adiyifo no kae no so kaa Yesu ho asɛm fi anɔpa kosii anadwo kyerɛɛ wɔn pɛɛ sɛ ɔdan wɔn adwene.
And when they had apoynted him a daye ther came many vnto him into his lodgynge. To whom he expounded and testifyed the kyngdome of God and preached vnto the of Iesu: both out of the lawe of Moses and also out of the prophetes even from mornynge to nyght.
24 Nnipa no bi gyee Paulo asɛm a ɔkae no dii na bi nso annye anni.
And some beleved ye thinges which were spoken and some beleved not.
25 Bere a wɔregyigye wɔn ho wɔn ho akyinnye no, wofii hɔ kɔe. Na asɛm a etwa to a Paulo kae ne sɛ, “Nokwasɛm na Honhom Kronkron nam Odiyifo Yesaia so ka kyerɛɛ mo agyanom se,
When they agreed not amonge the selves they departed after that Paul had spoken one worde. Well spake the holy goost by Esay ye prophet vnto oure fathers
26 “Monkɔka asɛm yi nkyerɛ Yudafo se, ‘Ɔte de mobɛte, nanso morente ase. Ɔhwɛ de mobɛhwɛ, nanso morenhu,’
sayinge: Goo vnto this people and saye: with youre eares shall ye heare and shall not vnderstonde: and with youre eyes shall ye se and shall not perceave.
27 efisɛ nnipa yi apirim wɔn koma; moasisiw mo aso, akatakata mo ani. Ɛnyɛ saa a, anka mo ani behu ade, na mo koma ate asɛm ase, na moanu mo ho asan aba me nkyɛn, na masa mo yare.”
For the hert of this people is wexed grosse and their eares were thycke of hearynge and their eyes have they closed: lest they shuld se with their eyes and heare with their eares and vnderstonde with their hertes and shuld be converted and I shulde heale them.
28 Paulo kae se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ muhu sɛ Onyankopɔn nkwagye no adu amanamanmufo no nkyɛn. Wobetie!”
Be it knowen therfore vnto you that this salvacion of God is sent to the gentyls and they shall heare it.
29 Paulo kaa saa asɛm yi wiei no, Yudafo no fii hɔ kɔe a na wɔregyigye wɔn ho wɔn ho akyinnye denneennen.
And when he had sayde that the Iewes departed and had grete despicios amonge them selves.
30 Paulo tenaa hɔ mfe abien, a na ɔte ofi a ɔno ankasa tua ho ka mu, na nnipa bebree kɔɔ ne nkyɛn.
And Paul dwelt two yeares full in his lodgynge and receaved all that came to him
31 Na ɔde akokoduru kaa Onyankopɔn Ahenni no ne Awurade Yesu Kristo ho asɛm.
preachyng the kyngdome of God and teachynge those thinges which concerned the lorde Iesus with all confidence vnforboden.
