Luka 21
1 Yesu te asɔredan mu hɔ no, ohuu asikafo bi a wɔde wɔn afɔrebɔde akɛseakɛse regu afɔrebɔ adaka no mu.
And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.
2 Ohuu okunafo hiani bi nso sɛ ɔde sika kakraa bi too afɔre adaka no mu.
And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
3 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ nnipa a na wɔwɔ asɔredan mu hɔ no se, “Nokware ni, afɔre a okunafo hiani yi bɛbɔɔ no som bo sen afɔre akɛseakɛse a asikafo no bɛbɔɔ no nyinaa.
And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
4 Wɔn nyinaa de nea wɔanya ama aboro so no bi na ɛbɛbɔɔ afɔre, na oyi de, ofi ne hia mu de ne sika a ɔwɔ nyinaa na abegu mu yi.”
For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
5 Yesu akyidifo no bi kamfoo abo fɛfɛ a wɔde sii asɔredan no ne adwinni ahorow a wɔadi agu ɔdan no ho no. Nanso Yesu kae se,
And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,
6 “Bere bi bɛba a, wobedwiriw nneɛma a morekamfo yi nyinaa agu a hwee renka.”
[As for] these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
7 Wobisaa no se, “Kyerɛkyerɛfo, bere bɛn na asɛm a woreka yi besi, na ho nsɛnkyerɛnne bɛyɛ dɛn?”
And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign [ will there be] when these things shall come to pass?
8 Yesu buae se, “Monhwɛ mo ho so yiye na obi annaadaa mo, efisɛ nnipa pii bɛsɔre aka se, ‘Mene Kristo no’ na bere no abɛn, nanso monnnye wɔn nni!
And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
9 Sɛ mote akokoakoko ne sɛ wɔsɔre tia aman a, munnsuro efisɛ ɛsɛ sɛ saa nneɛma yi di kan ba nanso na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ awiei no abɛn.”
But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end [is] not by and by.
10 Ɔkaa bio se, “Aman bɛsɔre aman so na ahenni asɔre ahenni so.
Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11 Asasewosow a ɛyɛ hu bɛba, ɔkɔm bɛba na nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu befi wim asisi.
And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
12 “Nanso ansa na eyinom nyinaa besisi no, me din nti, wɔbɛtaa mo akyekyere mo, de mo akɔ hyiadan mu ne afiase ne ahemfo ne atumfo anim.
But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute [you], delivering [you] up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake.
13 Eyi bɛma moanya kwan adi me ho adanse.
And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14 Nanso, monnnwene nsɛm a mobɛka de ayi mo ho ano no ho;
Settle [it] therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
15 Efisɛ mɛma mo nsɛm ne nyansa a mode beyi mo ho ano a mo atamfo rentumi nnyina mo anim.
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16 Mo awofo, mo nuanom, mo abusuafo ne mo nnamfonom beyi mo ama na wobekum mo mu bi.
And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and [some] of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17 Na me nti nnipa bɛtan mo.
And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name’s sake.
18 Nanso mo tinwi baako pɛ mpo renyera.
But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
19 Na sɛ mutumi gyina pintinn a, mubenya nkwa a enni awiei.”
In your patience possess ye your souls.
20 “Sɛ muhu sɛ asraafo atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ne sɛe abɛn.
And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21 Saa bere no wɔn a wɔte Yudea nguan nkɔ mmepɔw no so; wɔn a wɔwɔ kurow no mu no nguan mfi mu, na wɔn nso a wɔwɔ nkuraa ne mfuw mu no ntena hɔ ara.
Then let them which are in Judæa flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22 Saa bere yi mu na Onyankopɔn asotwe a adiyifo no hyɛɛ ho nkɔm wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu no bɛba mu.
For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 Wɔn a wɔafa afuru ne wɔn a wɔma mma nufu no nnue. Amanehunu a enni kabea bɛba ɔman no so na Onyankopɔn abufuwhyew nso aba nnipa no so.
But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 Ebinom bɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano na wɔafa ebinom nso nnommum de wɔn akɔ amanaman so na amanaman bɛsɛe Yerusalem, adi so akosi bere a Onyankopɔn ahyehyɛ sɛ amanaman nni wɔn so no betwa mu.”
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
25 “Nsɛnkyerɛnne bɛba owia, ɔsram ne nsoromma mu na po asorɔkye bɛbobɔ mu, aworo so ama ne nnyigyei dennen no de ahoyeraw aba aman nyinaa so.
And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Esiane nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu a ɛbɛba asase so no nti, nnipa pii bɛtotɔ piti na abɔde a ɛwɔ wim nso awosow ahoɔden so.
Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27 Saa bere no na wobehu Onipa Ba no sɛ ɔde tumi ne anuonyam a ɛso nam omununkum mu reba.
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 Sɛ saa asɛm yi fi ase sisi a, momfa gyidi nnyina pintinn, efisɛ na mo nkwagye bere abɛn.”
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
29 Yesu buu wɔn bɛ bi se, “Monhwɛ borɔdɔma ne nnua nyinaa.
And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;
30 Sɛ eyiyi nhaban foforo a na ɛkyerɛ sɛ asusow bere adu.
When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.
31 Saa ara nso na sɛ muhu nsɛnkyerɛnne a mereka ho asɛm yi a, munhu sɛ Onyankopɔn ahenni no abɛn.
So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32 “Nokware mise mo sɛ, awo ntoatoaso yi rentwa mu, gye sɛ saa nneɛma yi nyinaa aba mu ansa.
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
33 Ɔsoro ne asase betwa mu akɔ, nanso me nsɛm de, ɛrentwa mu da.
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
34 “Monhwɛ mo ho so yiye! Mommma adiditraso ne asabow ne asetena mu dadwen nni mo so, anyɛ saa a, me ba a mɛba bio no befu mo mu.
And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and [so] that day come upon you unawares.
35 Efisɛ me ba a mɛba no befu nnipa a wɔte asase so nyinaa mu.
For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Monwɛn. Bere biara mommɔ mpae na moanya ahoɔden de agyina saa nneɛma yi nyinaa ano na mesan ba bio a, moatumi agyina mʼanim.”
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
37 Da biara, na Yesu kɔ asɔredan mu hɔ kɔkyerɛkyerɛ, na sɛ edu anwummere biara a, Yesu kɔ Ngo Bepɔw no so kɔhome.
And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called [the mount] of Olives.
38 Na nnipa pii sɔre anɔpahema biara kotie no wɔ asɔredan mu.
And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, for to hear him.
