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.
Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have 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 in bonds, as bound with them; those in distress, as being yourselves also 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 honored in all respects, and the bed be undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will 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 disposition be without covetousness, and be content with what ye have; for he hath said, “I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee;”
6 Momma yɛnsi yɛn bo nka sɛ, “Awurade ne me ɔboafoɔ, enti merensuro. Ɛdeɛn na onipa bɛtumi ayɛ me?”
so that we boldly say, “The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear; what shall 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, who spoke to you the word of God; and considering well the end of their manner of life, imitate their faith.
Jesus Christ is yesterday and to-day the same, and for ever. (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.
Be not carried aside with various and strange teachings; for it is good that the heart be established with grace, not with meats, in which those who walked were not profited.
10 Nanso yɛwɔ afɔrebukyia bi a Asɔfoɔ a wɔsom wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu no mpo nni ho ɛkwan sɛ wɔdidi so.
We have an altar, of which they cannot eat who serve 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 those beasts whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high-priest are burned without the camp.
12 Yei enti, Yesu nso wuu wɔ kuro no ɛpono akyi sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ne mogya bɛma nnipa ayɛ kronkron.
Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered without the gate.
13 Enti momma yɛnkɔ ne nkyɛn wɔ beaeɛ no akyi nkɔgye animguaseɛ no bi.
Let us then go forth to him without 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 here we have no abiding city, but are seeking that which is to come.
15 Momma yɛmfa Yesu so mfa yɛn anofafa nkamfo Onyankopɔn din daa sɛ yɛn afɔrebɔdeɛ.
Through him therefore let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips giving thanks to 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.
But works of kindness and liberality forget not; for with such sacrifices 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 yourselves to them; for they keep watch in behalf of your souls, as those who must give an account; that they may do this with joy, and not with grief; for this is not for your advantage.
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.
Pray for us; for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring in all things to conduct ourselves well;
19 Na mebɔ mpaeɛ kɔ so srɛ mo sɛ, mommɔ mpaeɛ na Onyankopɔn mfa me mmrɛ mo nnansa yi ara.
but I the more earnestly entreat you to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
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 may the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of an everlasting covenant, even our Lord Jesus, (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)
make you perfect in every good work, to do his will, doing in you that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be the glory for ever. 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 beseech you, brethren, bear with the word of my exhortation; for I have written to you in few words.
23 Mepɛ sɛ mebɔ mo amaneɛ sɛ wɔayi yɛn nua Timoteo afiri afiase. Sɛ ɔba ntɛm a, me ne no bɛba mo nkyɛn.
Know that the brother Timothy hath been set at liberty, with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.
24 Yɛkyea mpanimfoɔ no ne Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ no nyinaa. Anuanom a wɔwɔ Italia no kyea mo.
Salute all your leaders, and all the saints. Those from Italy salute you.
25 Adom nka mo nyinaa.
Grace be with you all. Amen.
