Hebrifoɔ 13
1 Monnodɔ mo ho mo ho sɛ anuanom wɔ Kristo mu.
Let brotherly love continue.
2 Monkae na monnye ahɔhoɔ wɔ mo afie mu. Ebinom yɛɛ saa nam so gyee abɔfoɔ a na wɔnnim.
Do not neglect to show hospitality; for by it some have even entertained angels unawares.
3 Monkae wɔn a wɔda afiase na momfa no sɛ mo ne wɔn na ɛda hɔ. Monkae wɔn a wɔrehunu amane na momfa no sɛ mo ne wɔn na ɛrehunu saa amane no.
Remember those who are in prison, as if you were fellow prisoners; remember too, those who are being ill-treated, since you too, are in the body.
4 Mo nyinaa nni awadeɛ ni, na okununom ne ɔyerenom nni wɔn ho nokorɛ, ɛfiri sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛbu adwamanfoɔ ne awaresɛefoɔ atɛn.
Let marriage be held in honor by all, and the marriage bed be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers will God judge.
5 Monyi sikanibereɛ mfiri mo abrabɔ mu, na momma mo ani nsɔ deɛ mo nsa ka. Ɛfiri sɛ Onyankopɔn aka sɛ, “Merennya wo, na merennya wo da.”
Let your life be untainted by love of money; be content with such things as you have; for God himself has said, I will never leave thee; I will never forsake thee.
6 Momma yɛnsi yɛn bo nka sɛ, “Awurade ne me ɔboafoɔ, enti merensuro. Ɛdeɛn na onipa bɛtumi ayɛ me?”
So that we can say with confidence, The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
7 Monkae mo mpanimfoɔ a wɔdii mo anim a wɔkaa Onyankopɔn asɛm kyerɛɛ mo no. Monkae ɛkwan a wɔfaa so tenaa ase na monsua wɔn gyidie no.
Remember your leaders, the men who spoke the message of God to you; consider the issue of their lives, and imitate their faith.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (aiōn g165)
9 Mommma nkyerɛkyerɛ foforɔ biara nntwe mo mmfiri ɛkwan pa so. Ɛyɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn adom enti, yɛn kra bɛnyini ahoɔden so a ɛmfiri aduane ho mmara a yɛdi so no. Wɔn a wɔdi mmara a ɛte saa so no nnya mmoa biara.
Do not allow yourselves to be swept away by various and strange teachings. For it is a beautiful thing to be established in heart by grace, and not by regulations regarding food, from which those that occupied themselves with them have derived no benefit.
10 Nanso yɛwɔ afɔrebukyia bi a Asɔfoɔ a wɔsom wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu no mpo nni ho ɛkwan sɛ wɔdidi so.
We Christians have an altar from which those have no right to eat who minister in the Tabernacle.
11 Yudafoɔ Sɔfopanin de mmoa mogya ba Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ de bɛbɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ nanso wɔhye mmoa no funu wɔ beaeɛ no akyi baabi.
For the bodies of the animals whose blood is carried by the High Priest into the Holy Place are burned outside the camp,
12 Yei enti, Yesu nso wuu wɔ kuro no ɛpono akyi sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ne mogya bɛma nnipa ayɛ kronkron.
and so Jesus suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people by his own blood.
13 Enti momma yɛnkɔ ne nkyɛn wɔ beaeɛ no akyi nkɔgye animguaseɛ no bi.
Let us then go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.
14 Ɛfiri sɛ, yɛnni atenaeɛ a ɛwɔ hɔ daa wɔ asase yi so. Yɛrehwehwɛ kuro a ɛrebɛba no akyiri ɛkwan.
For we have not here an abiding city, but we are earnestly seeking the city that is to be.
15 Momma yɛmfa Yesu so mfa yɛn anofafa nkamfo Onyankopɔn din daa sɛ yɛn afɔrebɔdeɛ.
In his name, then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is the fruit of lips that confess his name.
16 Mommma mo werɛ mfiri sɛ mobɛyɛ mo ho mo ho papa aboaboa mo ho mo ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛno ne afɔrebɔ a ɛsɔ Onyankopɔn ani.
And forget not to be kind and liberal; for with that sort of sacrifice God is well pleased.
17 Montie mo mpanimfoɔ na monni wɔn asɛm so. Esiane sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbu wɔn adwuma ho akonta enti, wɔhwɛ mo kra so a wɔnhome koraa. Sɛ motie wɔn a, wɔde anigyeɛ bɛyɛ wɔn adwuma. Sɛ anyɛ saa a wɔde awerɛhoɔ bɛyɛ adwuma no na ɛremmoa mo.
Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who must give account; that they may do thus with joy and not with lamentation, for this would be unprofitable to you.
18 Monkɔ so mmɔ mpaeɛ mma yɛn. Yɛnim pefee sɛ yɛwɔ adwene a emu da hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛpɛ sɛ ɛberɛ biara yɛyɛ adeɛ a ɛyɛ.
Keep on praying for me. I am persuaded that I have a clear conscience, and I desire in every way to live nobly.
19 Na mebɔ mpaeɛ kɔ so srɛ mo sɛ, mommɔ mpaeɛ na Onyankopɔn mfa me mmrɛ mo nnansa yi ara.
I the more earnestly ask for your prayers, that I may be the more speedily restored to you.
20 Onyankopɔn anyane yɛn Awurade Yesu a ɔyɛ odwanhwɛfoɔ panin no afiri awufoɔ mu ama yɛn na ɛnam ne owuo no so enti, wɔasɔ daa apam no ano ama yɛn. (aiōnios g166)
Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of an eternal covenant, (aiōnios g166)
21 Asomdwoeɛ Onyankopɔn mma mo deɛ ɛhia mo nyinaa na monam so ayɛ nʼapɛdeɛ, na ɔnam Yesu Kristo so ayɛ yɛn mu adwuma sɛdeɛ ɛsɔ ani. Animuonyam nka Kristo daa nyinaa. Amen. (aiōn g165)
equip you in every good deed for the doing of his will, doing in you what is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory unto the ages of the ages! Amen! (aiōn g165)
22 Anuanom, mesrɛ mo sɛ, monyɛ aso ntie nkuranhyɛ nsɛm yi, ɛfiri sɛ, saa krataa a matwerɛ mo yi nnyɛ tenten biara.
But I entreat you, brothers, bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.
23 Mepɛ sɛ mebɔ mo amaneɛ sɛ wɔayi yɛn nua Timoteo afiri afiase. Sɛ ɔba ntɛm a, me ne no bɛba mo nkyɛn.
You know that our brother Timothy has been set free. If he comes soon, I will see him with you.
24 Yɛkyea mpanimfoɔ no ne Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ no nyinaa. Anuanom a wɔwɔ Italia no kyea mo.
Salute all your leaders and the saints. The brothers from Italy send you greeting.
25 Adom nka mo nyinaa.
Grace be with you all, Amen.
