Adiyisɛm 22
1 Ɔbɔfo no kyerɛɛ me nkwa asubɔnten a ani tew kurunnyenn sɛ ahwehwɛ a efi Onyankopɔn ne Oguamma no ahengua so,
He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb,
2 na ɛsen fa kurow no tempɔn kɛse no mfimfini. Nkwa dua si asu no fa biara a afe biara ɛsow aba ahorow dumien wɔ ɔsram biara. Wɔde so ahaban no sa aman ahorow no yare.
in the middle of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 Biribiara a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn nnome ase no nkɔ kurow no mu. Wobehu Onyankopɔn ne Oguamma no ahengua wɔ kurow no mu na nʼasomfo bɛsom no.
There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will serve him.
4 Wobehu nʼanim na wɔbɛkyerɛw ne din agu wɔn moma so.
They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.
5 Ade rensa wɔ hɔ bio, na akanea anaa hann ho nhia, efisɛ Awurade Nyankopɔn bɛyɛ wɔn hann na wobedi ade sɛ ahene daa daa. (aiōn g165)
There will be no night, and they need no lamp light or sun light; for the Lord God will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever. (aiōn g165)
6 Afei ɔbɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Saa nsɛm yi yɛ nokware a wode wo ho to so a, eye. Na Awurade Nyankopɔn a ɔde Honhom ma adiyifo no somaa ne bɔfo se ɔmmɛkyerɛ nʼasomfo nea ɛbɛba nnansa yi ara no.”
He said to me, “These words are faithful and true. The Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to show to his bondservants the things which must happen soon.”
7 Yesu kae se, “Muntie! Mereba nnansa yi ara, Nhyira nka wɔn a wotie adiyisɛm a ɛwɔ saa nhoma yi mu no!”
“Behold, I am coming soon! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.”
8 Me Yohane, mate na mahu saa nneɛma yi nyinaa. Na metee ne nyinaa, huu ne nyinaa wiei no, mibutuw ɔbɔfo no a ɔkyerɛɛ me saa nneɛma yi nyinaa no nan ase pɛɛ sɛ mesom no.
Now I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. When I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who had shown me these things.
9 Nanso ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Nyɛ saa! Meyɛ ɔsomfo te sɛ wo nuanom adiyifo ne wɔn a wodi nhoma yi mu nsɛm no so no ara pɛ. Som Onyankopɔn!”
He said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow bondservant with you and with your brothers, the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.”
10 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Nkata saa adiyisɛm a ɛwɔ nhoma yi mu no so, efisɛ bere no abɛn.
He said to me, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand.
11 Obiara a ɔyɛ bɔne no nkɔ so nyɛ bɔne, na nea ɔyɛ fi no nkɔ so nyɛ fi; nea ɔyɛ papa no nkɔ so nyɛ papa, na nea ɔyɛ kronkron no nkɔ so nyɛ kronkron.”
He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still.”
12 Hwɛ! Mereba ntɛm! Mikura mʼakatua sɛ mede rebɛma obiara sɛnea nʼadwumayɛ te.
“Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, to repay to each man according to his work.
13 Mene Alfa ne Omega, Ɔkannifo ne Okyikafo, Mfiase ne Awiei.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
14 “Nhyira nka wɔn a wɔhoro wɔn ntade ma efi, na wɔn na wɔwɔ ho kwan sɛ wodi nkwa dua no aba na wɔfa kurow no pon no mu.
Blessed are those who do his commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.
15 Na Kurow no akyi na akraman ne asumanfo ne nguamanfo ne awudifo ne abosonsomfo ne wɔn a wɔpɛ atoro na wodi atoro no nyinaa wɔ.
Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
16 “Me, Yesu, na masoma me bɔfo sɛ ɔmmɛbɔ mo saa nhoma yi nyinaa ho amanneɛ wɔ asafo mu. Meyɛ Dawid busuani. Mene anɔpa nsoromma a ɛhyerɛn no.”
I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify these things to you for the assemblies. I am the root and the offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”
17 Honhom no ne ayeforo no se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ obiara a ɔte saa asɛm yi nso ka se, ‘Bra!’ Na nea osukɔm de no no mmra, na nea ɔpɛ no nso, ommegye nkwa nsu no kwa.”
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” He who hears, let him say, “Come!” He who is thirsty, let him come. He who desires, let him take the water of life freely.
18 Me, Yohane, mebɔ obiara a ɔte saa adiyisɛm a ɛwɔ nhoma yi mu no kɔkɔ se: Sɛ obi de bi ka ho a, Onyankopɔn de asotwe bɛka ne haw a wakyerɛ mu wɔ saa nhoma yi mu no ho.
I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book.
19 Na sɛ obi nso yi bi fi adiyisɛm a ɛwɔ saa nhoma yi mu no mu a, Onyankopɔn beyi ne kyɛfa a obenya wɔ nkwa dua no ne kurow Kronkron a wɔakyerɛkyerɛ mu wɔ nhoma yi mu no.
If anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book.
20 Nea odi nhoma yi ho adanse no ka se, “Yiw! Mereba ntɛm!” Amen. Bra, Awurade Yesu!
He who testifies these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen! Yes, come, Lord Jesus!
21 Yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo adom nka ahotefo nyinaa. Amen.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with all the saints. Amen.
