< Yohane 2 >

1 Ne nnansa so, nnipa bi hyiaa ayeforɔ wɔ Kana a ɛwɔ Galilea asase so. Yesu maame kɔɔ saa ayeforɔhyia no bi.
And the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Wɔtoo nsa frɛɛ Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no nso kɔɔ hɔ bi.
Now Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, to the wedding.
3 Wɔgu so regye wɔn ani no, ayeforɔ no ase nsã saeɛ maa Yesu maame kɔɔ Yesu nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wɔn nsã a wɔrenom no asa.”
And when the wine ran out, Jesus' mother said to him, "They have no wine."
4 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ ne maame sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wopɛsɛ me yɛ, me berɛ nnya nnuruiɛ.”
Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does that have to do with you and me? My hour has not yet come."
5 Ne maame ka kyerɛɛ asomfoɔ no sɛ, “Biribiara a ɔbɛka sɛ monyɛ no, monyɛ.”
His mother said to the servants, "Whatever he says to you, do it."
6 Na aboɔ nsuhina nsia sisi hɔ; yeinom mu na na Yudafoɔ de nsuo gu de hohoro wɔn ho amanneɛ kwan so. Na suhina biara tumi fa nsuo galɔn aduasa.
Now there were six stone water jars set there after the Jewish manner of purifying, containing two or three metretes apiece.
7 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ asomfoɔ no sɛ, “Momfa nsuo nhyehyɛ nhina no ma ma.” Wɔde nsuo hyɛɛ no ma ma.
Jesus said to them, "Fill the water jars with water." They filled them up to the brim.
8 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monsa bi nkɔma onipa a ayeforɔ no ho ntotoeɛ hyɛ ne nsa no.”
He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the ruler of the feast." So they took it.
9 Deɛ ayeforɔ no ho ntotoeɛ hyɛ ne nsa no kaa nsuo no a adane nsã no hwɛeɛ. Na ɔnnim baabi a na nsã no firi, nanso na asomfoɔ no deɛ, wɔnim. Ɔfrɛɛ ayeforɔkunu no
When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom,
10 ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Saa nsã yi yɛ nsã pa. Wonte sɛ afoforɔ a wɔaka no. Obiara a ɔto ɛpono de nsã pa di ɛkan ba wɔ nʼapontoɔ ase, na akyire yi, ɔde nsã a ɛnni mu aba. Nanso, wo deɛ, wode nsã pa no atwa toɔ!”
and said to him, "Everyone serves the good wine first, and when the guests have drunk freely, then that which is worse. You have kept the good wine until now."
11 Saa nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a Yesu yɛɛ wɔ Kana a ɛwɔ Galilea asase so no ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɛdi ɛkan a ɔyɛɛ wɔ badwam de kyerɛɛ sɛ ne tumi firi ɔsoro. Ɛmaa nʼasuafoɔ no nso gyee no dii sɛ, ampa ara, ɔno ne Agyenkwa no.
This beginning of his signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
12 Ayeforɔhyia no akyi, ɔne ne maame ne ne nuanom ne nʼasuafoɔ no dii nna kakra wɔ Kapernaum.
After this, he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother and brothers, and his disciples; and they stayed there a few days.
13 Esiane sɛ na Yudafoɔ Twam Afahyɛ no rebɛduru no enti, Yesu kɔɔ Yerusalem.
The Jewish Passover was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 Ɔduruu asɔredan no mu hɔ no, ɔhunuu sɛ adwadifoɔ bi nso tete wɔn apono akyi resesa sika.
And he found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the money changers sitting.
15 Yesu faa ntampehoma, yɛɛ no mpire, de pamoo sikasesafoɔ no ne wɔn nnwan ne wɔn anantwie no firii asɔredan mu hɔ, kaa wɔn apono guiɛ maa wɔn sika a wɔresesa no nyinaa bɔ pansamee.
And he made a whip of cords, and threw all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers' money, and overthrew their tables.
16 Afei, ɔkɔɔ wɔn a wɔtɔn mmorɔnoma no so ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monsesa wɔn mfiri ha nkɔ ntɛm! Mommfa mʼAgya fie nyɛ adwadibea!”
To those who sold the doves, he said, "Take these things out of here. Do not make my Father's house a marketplace."
17 Asuafoɔ no kaa sɛ, wɔatwerɛ wɔ Atwerɛsɛm no mu sɛ, “Wo fie yiedie ho dadwene ahyɛ me so.”
His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me."
18 Afei, Yudafoɔ mpanin no bisaa Yesu sɛ, “Tumi bɛn na wowɔ a enti wopamoo nnipa no? Yɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bi fa di adanseɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn na ɔmaa wo saa tumi no.”
The Jewish leaders therefore answered him, "What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?"
19 Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Mate deɛ moaka no. Nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a mede bɛdi adanseɛ ara ne sɛ, mommubu asɔredan yi ngu na mede nnansa bɛsi bio.”
Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
20 Yudafoɔ mpanin no tee asɛm a Yesu kaeɛ no, wɔbisaa no sɛ, “Asɔredan a wɔde mfeɛ aduanan nsia siiɛ no, na wode nnansa bɛtumi asi?”
The Jewish leaders therefore said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?"
21 Nanso, Yesu deɛ, na ɔde ɔno ankasa ne onipadua na ɛreyɛ asɔredan no mfatoho,
But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22 Yesu wusɔreɛ no akyi ansa na asuafoɔ no kaee asɛm a ɔkaeɛ no. Yei ma wɔgyee Atwerɛsɛm ne nsɛm a Yesu kaeɛ no diiɛ.
When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
23 Ɛberɛ a Twam Afahyɛ no duruiɛ a na Yesu wɔ Yerusalem no, nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ahodoɔ bebree maa nnipa gyee no diiɛ.
Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, after seeing his signs which he did.
24 Nanso, Yesu amfa ne ho anto wɔn so, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔnim sɛdeɛ nnipa suban te.
But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew everyone,
25 Na ɔnhia onipa adanseɛ a ɔbɛdi afa onipa ho, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔnim deɛ ɛwɔ onipa mu.
and because he did not need anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
