Luka 21
1 Yesu te asɔredan mu hɔ no, ɔhunuu asikafoɔ bi a wɔde wɔn afɔrebɔdeɛ akɛseakɛseɛ regu afɔrebɔ adaka no mu.
And he looked up and saw the rich casting their gifts into the treasury;
2 Ɔhunuu okunafoɔ hiani bi nso sɛ ɔde sika kakra bi too afɔdeɛ adaka no mu.
but he saw also a certain poor widow casting therein two mites.
3 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ nnipa a na wɔwɔ asɔredan mu hɔ no sɛ, “Nokorɛ mu, afɔdeɛ a okunafoɔ hiani yi bɛbɔeɛ no som bo sene afɔdeɛ akɛseakɛseɛ a asikafoɔ no bɛbɔeɛ no nyinaa.
And he said, Verily I say unto you, that this poor widow has cast in more than all;
4 Wɔn nyinaa de deɛ wɔanya ama aboro so no bi na ɛbɛbɔɔ afɔdeɛ, na yei deɛ, ɔfiri ne hia mu de ne sika a ɔwɔ nyinaa na abɛgu mu yi.”
for all these out of their abundance have cast into the gifts [of God]; but she out of her need has cast in all the living which she had.
5 Yesu akyidifoɔ no bi kamfoo aboɔ fɛfɛ a wɔde sii asɔredan no ne adwinneɛ ahodoɔ a wɔadi agu ɛdan no ho no. Nanso, Yesu kaa sɛ,
And as some spoke of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones and consecrated offerings, he said,
6 “Ɛberɛ bi bɛba a, wɔbɛdwiri nneɛma a morekamfo yi nyinaa agu a hwee renka.”
[As to] these things which ye are beholding, days are coming in which there shall not be left stone upon stone which shall not be thrown down.
7 Wɔbisaa no sɛ, “Ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ, berɛ bɛn na asɛm a woreka yi bɛsi, na ɛho nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bɛyɛ sɛn?”
And they asked him saying, Teacher, when then shall these things be; and what [is] the sign when these things are going to take place?
8 Yesu buaa sɛ, “Monhwɛ mo ho so yie na obi annaadaa mo, ɛfiri sɛ, nnipa pii bɛsɔre aka sɛ, ‘Mene Kristo no’ na ɛberɛ no abɛn, nanso monnnye wɔn nni!
And he said, See that ye be not led astray, for many shall come in my name, saying, I am [he], and the time is drawn nigh: go ye not [therefore] after them.
9 Sɛ mote akokoakoko ne sɛ wɔsɔre tia aman a, monnsuro ɛfiri sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ saa nneɛma yi di ɛkan ba nanso na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ awieeɛ no abɛn.”
And when ye shall hear of wars and tumults, be not terrified, for these things must first take place, but the end is not immediately.
10 Ɔkaa bio sɛ, “Aman bɛsɔre aman so na ahennie asɔre ahennie so.
Then he said to them, Nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;
11 Asasewosoɔ a ɛyɛ hu bɛba, ɛkɔm bɛba na nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu bɛfiri ewiem asisi.
there shall be both great earthquakes in different places, and famines and pestilences; and there shall be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.
12 “Nanso, ansa na yeinom nyinaa bɛsisi no, me din enti, wɔbɛtaa mo akyekye mo, de mo akɔ hyiadan mu ne afiase ne ahemfo ne atumfoɔ anim.
But before all these things they shall lay their hands upon you and persecute you, delivering [you] up to synagogues and prisons, bringing [you] before kings and governors on account of my name;
13 Yei bɛma moanya ɛkwan adi me ho adanseɛ.
but it shall turn out to you for a testimony.
14 Nanso, monnnwene nsɛm a mobɛka de ayi mo ho ano no ho;
Settle therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand [your] defence,
15 Ɛfiri sɛ, mɛma mo nsɛm ne nyansa a mode bɛyi mo ho ano a mo atamfoɔ rentumi nnyina mo anim.
for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your opposers shall not be able to reply to or resist.
16 Mo awofoɔ, mo nuanom, mo abusuafoɔ ne mo nnamfonom bɛyi mo ama na wɔbɛkum mo mu bi.
But ye will be delivered up even by parents and brethren and relations and friends, and they shall put to death [some] from among you,
17 Na me enti, nnipa bɛtan mo.
and ye will be hated of all for my name's sake.
18 Nanso, mo tirinwi baako pɛ mpo renyera.
And a hair of your head shall in no wise perish.
19 Na sɛ motumi gyina pintinn a, mobɛnya nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ.”
By your patient endurance gain your souls.
20 “Sɛ mohunu sɛ asraafoɔ atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ne sɛeɛ abɛn.
But when ye see Jerusalem encompassed with armies, then know that its desolation is drawn nigh.
21 Saa ɛberɛ no wɔn a wɔte Yudea nnwane nkɔ mmepɔ no so; wɔn a wɔwɔ kuro no mu no nnwane mfiri mu, na wɔn nso a wɔwɔ nkuraase ne mfuom no ntena hɔ ara.
Then let those who are in Judaea flee to the mountains, and those who are in the midst of it depart out, and those who are in the country not enter into it;
22 Saa ɛberɛ yi mu na Onyankopɔn asotwe a adiyifoɔ no hyɛɛ ho nkɔm wɔ Atwerɛsɛm no mu no bɛba mu.
for these are days of avenging, that all the things that are written may be accomplished.
23 Wɔn a wɔafa afuro ne wɔn a wɔturu mma saa ɛberɛ no mu no nnue. Amanehunu a ɛnni kabea bɛba ɔman no so na Onyankopɔn abufuhyeɛ nso aba nnipa no so.
But woe to them that are with child and to them who give suck in those days, for there shall be great distress upon the land and wrath upon this people.
24 Ebinom bɛtotɔ wɔ sekan ano na wɔafa ebinom nso nnommum de wɔn akɔ amanaman so na amanaman bɛsɛe Yerusalem, adi so akɔsi ɛberɛ a Onyankopɔn ahyehyɛ sɛ amanaman nni wɔn so no bɛtwam.”
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and be led captive into all the nations; and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of [the] nations until [the] times of [the] nations be fulfilled.
25 “Nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bɛba owia, ɔsrane ne nsoromma mu na ɛpo asorɔkye bɛbobom, aworo so ama ne nnyegyeeɛ denden no de ahoyera aba aman nyinaa so.
And there shall be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity [at] the roar of the sea and rolling waves,
26 Esiane nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu a ɛbɛba asase so no enti, nnipa pii bɛtotɔ bera na abɔdeɛ a ɛwɔ ewiem nso awoso ahoɔden so.
men ready to die through fear and expectation of what is coming on the habitable earth, for the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.
27 Saa ɛberɛ no na wɔbɛhunu Onipa Ba no sɛ ɔde tumi ne animuonyam a ɛso nam omununkum mu reba.
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 Sɛ saa asɛm yi firi aseɛ sisi a, momfa gyidie nnyina pintinn, ɛfiri sɛ, na mo nkwagyeberɛ abɛn.”
But when these things begin to come to pass, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws nigh.
29 Yesu buu wɔn ɛbɛ bi sɛ, “Monhwɛ borɔdɔma ne nnua nyinaa.
And he spoke a parable to them: Behold the fig-tree and all the trees;
30 Sɛ ɛyiyi nhahan foforɔ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ osutɔberɛ aduru.
when they already sprout, ye know of your own selves, [on] looking [at them], that already the summer is near.
31 Saa ara nso na sɛ mohunu nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a moreka ho asɛm yi a, monhunu sɛ Onyankopɔn Ahennie no abɛn.
So also ye, when ye see these things take place, know that the kingdom of God is near.
32 “Nokorɛ me se mo sɛ, awontoatoasoɔ yi rentwam, gye sɛ saa nneɛma yi nyinaa aba mu ansa.
Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall in no wise pass away until all come to pass.
33 Ɔsoro ne asase bɛtwam, nanso me nsɛm deɛ, ɛrentwam da.
The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall in no wise pass away.
34 “Monhwɛ mo ho so yie! Mommma adiditrasoɔ ne nsãborɔ ne asetena mu dadwene nni mo so, anyɛ saa a, me ba a mɛba bio no bɛfu mo mu.
But take heed to yourselves lest possibly your hearts be laden with surfeiting and drinking and cares of life, and that day come upon you suddenly unawares;
35 Ɛfiri sɛ, me ba a mɛba no bɛfu nnipa a wɔte asase so nyinaa mu.
for as a snare shall it come upon all them that dwell upon the face of the whole earth.
36 Monwɛn. Ɛberɛ biara mommɔ mpaeɛ na moanya ahoɔden de agyina saa nneɛma yi nyinaa ano, na Onipa Ba no sane ba bio a, moatumi agyina nʼanim.”
Watch therefore, praying at every season, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things which are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
37 Ɛda biara, na Yesu kɔ asɔredan mu hɔ kɔkyerɛkyerɛ, na sɛ ɛduru anwummerɛ biara a, Yesu kɔ Ngo Bepɔ no so kɔhome.
And by day he was teaching in the temple, and by night, going out, he remained abroad on the mountain called [the mount] of Olives;
38 Na nnipa pii sɔre anɔpahema biara kɔtie no wɔ asɔredan mu.
and all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.
