Romafo 15

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

We which are strong, ought to beare the infirmities of the weake, and not to please our selues.

2 Yɛn mu biara nkamfo ade pa biara a ne yɔnko yɛ mfa nhyɛ no den.

Therefore let euery man please his neighbour in that that is good to edification.

3 Kristo mpo anyɛ nea ɔpɛ, sɛnea Kyerɛwsɛm ka se, “Nnipa a wɔbɔ mo ahohora no bɔ me ahohora nso.”

For Christ also would not please himselfe, but as it is written, The rebukes of them which rebuke thee, fell on me.

4 Biribiara a wɔakyerɛw wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu no, wɔakyerɛw de kyerɛkyerɛ yɛn sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a yɛnam boasetɔ, nkuranhyɛ a Kristo Kyerɛwsɛm no de ma yɛn no so benya anidaso.

For whatsoeuer things are written aforetime, are writte for our learning, that we through patience, and comfort of the Scriptures might haue hope.

5 Onyankopɔn a yenya boasetɔ ne nkuranhyɛ fi ne nkyɛn no mma mo honhom mu nkabom na mode adi Kristo Yesu akyi,

Now the God of patience and consolation giue you that ye be like minded one towards another, according to Christ Iesus,

6 sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mo nyinaa de koma koro ne ano koro bɛkamfo Onyankopɔn, yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Agya no.

That ye with one minde, and with one mouth may prayse God, euen the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ.

7 Munnyigye mo ho mo ho nto mu mfa nkamfo Onyankopɔn sɛnea Kristo agye mo no.

Wherefore receiue ye one another, as Christ also receiued vs to the glory of God.

8 Efisɛ meka kyerɛɛ mo se Kristo Yesu bɛyɛɛ Yudafo somfo de kyerɛɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ ɔnokwafo a ɔbɛma ne bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ agyanom no aba mu,

Nowe I say, that Iesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision, for the trueth of God, to confirme the promises made vnto the fathers.

9 na wama amanamanmufo nso akamfo no wɔ ne mmɔborɔhunu ho sɛnea Kyerɛwsɛm no ka se, “Eyi nti mɛkamfo wo wɔ amanamanmufo mu; na mato nnwom akamfo wo din.”

And let the Gentiles prayse God, for his mercie, as it is written, For this cause I wil confesse thee among the Gentiles, and sing vnto thy Name.

10 Na ɛka bio se, “Mo amanamanmufo, monkamfo Awurade, mo ne ne nkurɔfo Yudafo.”

And againe he saith, Reioyce, ye Gentiles with his people.

11 Bio, “Amanamanmufo nyinaa nyi Awurade ayɛ; asase so aman nyinaa monkamfo no.”

And againe, Prayse the Lord, all ye Gentiles, and laude ye him, all people together.

12 Na Yesaia ka bio se, “Yisai aseni bɛsɔre, nea ɔbɛsɔre abedi amanaman no so; ɔno na wɔn ani bɛda ne so.”

And againe Esaias sayth, There shall be a roote of Iesse, and hee that shall rise to reigne ouer the Gentiles, in him shall the Gentiles trust.

13 Anidaso Nyankopɔn no a mugye no di no mfa anigye ne asomdwoe nhyɛ mo ma, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Honhom Kronkron tumi no bɛma mo anidaso mmoroso.

Nowe the God of hope fill you with all ioye, and peace in beleeuing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the holy Ghost.

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

And I my selfe also am perswaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodnes, and filled with all knowledge, and are able to admonish one another.

15 Mede akokoduru akyerɛw abobɔ nneɛma bi so, sɛnea meretwe mo adwene akɔ so bio, esiane adom bi a Onyankopɔn de adom me no nti.

Neuerthelesse, brethren, I haue somewhat boldly after a sort written vnto you, as one that putteth you in remembrance, through the grace that is giuen me of God,

16 Meyɛ Kristo Yesu somfo a ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ asɔfodwuma a mepae mu ka Onyankopɔn Asɛmpa no sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a amanamanmufo bɛyɛ afɔrebɔde a ɛsɔ Onyankopɔn ani a Honhom Kronkron no atew ho.

That I should be the minister of Iesus Christ toward the Gentiles, ministring the Gospel of God, that the offering vp of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the holy Ghost.

17 Ɛno nti mitumi hoahoa me ho wɔ Kristo Yesu mu wɔ Onyankopɔn som yi mu.

I haue therefore whereof I may reioyce in Christ Iesus in those things which pertaine to God.

18 Nea mɛka ho asɛm ara ne sɛnea Kristo nam nea maka ne nea mayɛ so ama amanamanmufo ayɛ osetie ama Onyankopɔn no.

For I dare not speake of any thing, which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient in worde and deede,

19 Saa nsɛnkyerɛnne ne anwonwade yi yɛ tumi a efi Honhom no mu. Enti efi Yerusalem de kosi Iliriko no, mapae mu aka Kristo Asɛmpa no nyinaa.

With the power of signes and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God: so that from Hierusalem, and round about vnto Illyricum, I haue caused to abound the Gospel of Christ.

20 Na me botae ne sɛ, daa mɛka asɛmpa no wɔ mmeaemmeae a wɔntee Kristo ho asɛm da no, na ankɔyɛ sɛ misii dan wɔ obi fapem so.

Yea, so I enforced my selfe to preach the Gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should haue built on another mans foundation.

21 Mmom sɛnea wɔakyerɛw no: “Wɔn a wɔnkaa ne ho asɛm nkyerɛɛ wɔn no behu, na wɔn a wɔntee no nso bɛte ase.”

But as it is written, To whome hee was not spoken of, they shall see him, and they that heard not, shall vnderstand him.

22 Eyi nti na bere biara a mepɛ sɛ meba mo nkyɛn no, biribi siw me kwan.

Therefore also I haue bene oft let to come vnto you:

23 Nanso mprempren a mawie mʼadwuma wɔ saa amantam yi mu, na afei mfe bebree ni a mepɛɛ sɛ anka mɛba abehu mo no nti,

But nowe seeing I haue no more place in these quarters, and also haue bene desirous many yeeres agone to come vnto you,

24 mayɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛkɔ Spania. Sɛ merekɔ a, mɛpɛ sɛ mehu mo na moaboa me ama makɔ hɔ bere a me ne mo atena anigye so kakraa bi no.

When I shall take my iourney into Spaine, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my iourney, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, after that I haue bene somewhat filled with your company.

25 Mprempren ara, merekɔ Yerusalem akɔsom Onyankopɔn manfo a wɔwɔ hɔ no.

But now go I to Hierusalem, to minister vnto the Saints.

26 Efisɛ asafo a ɛwɔ Makedonia ne Akaia no asi wɔn adwene pi sɛ wɔbɛboa ahiafo a wɔfra Onyankopɔn manfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem no mu.

For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia, to make a certaine distribution vnto the poore Saints which are at Hierusalem.

27 Wɔn ara na wosii wɔn adwene pi saa, nanso nokware ni, ɛyɛ wɔn asɛde sɛ wɔboa saa ahiafo no. Amanamanmufo no nyaa Yudafo honhom no mu nhyira no bi. Ɛno nti na ɛsɛ sɛ amanamanmufo no de wɔn ahode som Yudafo no.

For it hath pleased them, and their detters are they: for if the Gentiles be made partakers of their spirituall things, their duetie is also to minister vnto them in carnall things.

28 Sɛ miwie saa dwumadi yi na mekɔ wɔn nkyɛn na mede sika a wɔapɛ no nyinaa ma wɔn a, mefi hɔ akɔ Spania. Na sɛ merekɔ a mɛba mo hɔ abɛsra mo.

When I haue therefore performed this, and haue sealed them this fruite, I will passe by you into Spaine.

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

And I knowe when I come, that I shall come to you with abundance of the blessing of the Gospel of Christ.

30 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 mpae dennen mma me.

Also brethren, I beseeche you for our Lord Iesus Christes sake, and for the loue of the spirit, that ye would striue with me by prayers to God for me,

31 Mommɔ mpae, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a asɛm bi rento me wɔ Yudea. Mommɔ mpae mma wɔn a wonnye asɛm no nni. Afei nso mommɔ mpae mma me som a mɛsom wɔ Yerusalem no, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ahotefo a wɔwɔ hɔ no begye ato mu.

That I may be deliuered from them which are disobedient in Iudea, and that my seruice which I haue to doe at Hierusalem, may be accepted of the Saintes,

32 Sɛ ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn pɛ a mede ahosɛpɛw bɛba mo nkyɛn abɛsra mo.

That I may come vnto you with ioy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.

33 Asomdwoe Nyankopɔn no ne mo nyinaa ntena. Amen.

Thus the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
