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 people bringing their gifts to the treasury:
2 Ɔhunuu okunafoɔ hiani bi nso sɛ ɔde sika kakra bi too afɔdeɛ adaka no mu.
and He saw also a poor widow throwing in 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 tell you, this poor widow hath put in more than they 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 have out of their abundance contributed to the offerings of God: but she out of her penury hath given all 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 were speaking of the temple; how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts, He said, As for these things which ye see,
6 “Ɛberɛ bi bɛba a, wɔbɛdwiri nneɛma a morekamfo yi nyinaa agu a hwee renka.”
the days will come, in which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be demolished.
7 Wɔbisaa no sɛ, “Ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ, berɛ bɛn na asɛm a woreka yi bɛsi, na ɛho nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bɛyɛ sɛn?”
And they asked Him, saying, Master, when shall these things be? And what will be the sign when these things shall come to pass?
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, Take heed that ye be not deceived; for many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and the time is near: but do not therefore go 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 commotions, be not terrified: for these must first happen; but the end will not be directly.
10 Ɔkaa bio sɛ, “Aman bɛsɔre aman so na ahennie asɔre ahennie so.
Then said He unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;
11 Asasewosoɔ a ɛyɛ hu bɛba, ɛkɔm bɛba na nneɛma a ɛyɛ hu bɛfiri ewiem asisi.
and there will be great earthquakes in several places, and famines, and pestilences, and fearful sights and great prodigies 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 will lay hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues, and prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake:
13 Yei bɛma moanya ɛkwan adi me ho adanseɛ.
but it shall be for a testimony to you.
14 Nanso, monnnwene nsɛm a mobɛka de ayi mo ho ano no ho;
Fix it therefore in your hearts not to premeditate a defence: for I will give you a mouth and wisdom,
15 Ɛfiri sɛ, mɛma mo nsɛm ne nyansa a mode bɛyi mo ho ano a mo atamfoɔ rentumi nnyina mo anim.
which all your adversaries shall not be able to contradict nor withstand.
16 Mo awofoɔ, mo nuanom, mo abusuafoɔ ne mo nnamfonom bɛyi mo ama na wɔbɛkum mo mu bi.
But ye shall be betrayed even by parents, and brethren, and kindred and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death:
17 Na me enti, nnipa bɛtan mo.
and ye will be hated by all men for my sake.
18 Nanso, mo tirinwi baako pɛ mpo renyera.
But not an hair of your head shall perish.
19 Na sɛ motumi gyina pintinn a, mobɛnya nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ.”
In your patience therefore possess your souls.
20 “Sɛ mohunu sɛ asraafoɔ atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ne sɛeɛ abɛn.
And when ye shall see Jerusalem surrounded with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh: then let them that are in Judea flee to the mountains,
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.
and those that are in the midst of it, depart; and let not them that are in the countries 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 vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
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 wo to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days; for there shall be great distress in 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 nations: and Jerusalem shall be trampled down by the Gentiles, till the times of the Gentiles too shall 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 the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity, the sea and the waves roring:
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.
and men ready to die for fear and apprehension of the things that are coming upon the land; for the powers of heaven 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, as on 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 upwards and lift up your heads, for your redemption draweth nigh.
29 Yesu buu wɔn ɛbɛ bi sɛ, “Monhwɛ borɔdɔma ne nnua nyinaa.
And He spake a parable to them, Behold the fig-tree,
30 Sɛ ɛyiyi nhahan foforɔ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ osutɔberɛ aduru.
and all the trees, when they shoot out, ye see and know of yourselves that summer is now near:
31 Saa ara nso na sɛ mohunu nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a moreka ho asɛm yi a, monhunu sɛ Onyankopɔn Ahennie no abɛn.
so likewise know ye, when ye see these things coming to pass, that the kingdom of God is at hand.
32 “Nokorɛ me se mo sɛ, awontoatoasoɔ yi rentwam, gye sɛ saa nneɛma yi nyinaa aba mu ansa.
Verily I tell you, this generation shall not pass away till all be accomplished.
33 Ɔsoro ne asase bɛtwam, nanso me nsɛm deɛ, ɛrentwam da.
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not 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.
Take heed to yourselves, least at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness, and the cares of life, and so that day should come upon you 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 that dwell on 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 and be constant in prayer, that ye may be counted worthy to escape all these things, which shall 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.
Thus He was by day teaching in the temple; and at night He retired to the mount 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.
