< Marko 3 >

1 Yesu baa Kapernaum no, ɔkɔɔ hyiadan mu bio. Ɔduruu hɔ no, ɔhunuu ɔbarima bi a ne nsa baako awu.
And he entered again into the synagogue, and there was a man there who had his hand withered.
2 Na saa ɛda no yɛ Homeda enti na Yesu atamfoɔ no retetɛ no ahwɛ sɛ ɔbɛsa ɔbarima no yadeɛ anaa. Na wɔabɔ wɔn tirim sɛ, sɛ ɔsa no yadeɛ a, wɔbɛkyere no!
And They watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.
3 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no sɛ, “Sɔre gyina nnipa no anim.”
And he said to the man with the withered hand, "Stand up in the middle."
4 Ɔdanee ne ho kyerɛɛ nʼatamfoɔ no bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Ɛyɛ sɛ obi yɛ papa Homeda? Anaasɛ ɛyɛ ɛda a wɔde yɛ bɔne? Ɛyɛ ɛda a wɔde gye nkwa anaa wɔma obi nkwa hwere no” Nanso, wɔammua no.
And he said to them, "Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill?" But they were silent.
5 Ɔde abufuo hwɛɛ wɔn hyiaeɛ. Ɛhaa no sɛ wɔnni ahummɔborɔ mma nnipa enti ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima no sɛ, “Tene wo nsa no mu.” Ɔtenee mu, na amonom hɔ ara, ne nsa no yɛɛ yie.
And when he had looked around at them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their hearts, he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out, and his hand was restored.
6 Ɛhɔ ara, Farisifoɔ no kɔhyiaa Herodefoɔ no ne wɔn susuu ɛkwan a wɔbɛfa so akum Yesu no ho.
And the Pharisees went out, and immediately conspired with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.
7 Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no firii hɔ kɔɔ mpoano. Nnipadɔm fifiri Galilea, Yudea, Yerusalem,
And Jesus withdrew to the sea with his disciples, and a large crowd followed from Galilee, and from Judea,
8 Idumea, Asubɔnten Yordan agya, Tiro ne Sidon fam nyinaa, tu dii Yesu akyi. Ɛfiri sɛ, na nʼanwanwadeɛ a ɔyɛ no atrɛ afanan nyinaa enti na ebinom pɛ sɛ wɔbɛhwɛ no.
and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and beyond the Jordan, and those from around Tyre and Sidon. A large crowd, when they heard what great things he did, came to him.
9 Ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, wɔmpɛ kodoɔ bi nsi nkyɛn baabi, na sɛ nnipadɔm no kyere ne so wɔ mpoano hɔ a, watena mu akɔ.
And he told his disciples that a small boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they would not press on him.
10 Ɛda no, na wasa nyarewa bebree. Nanso, na ayarefoɔ no ba ara na wɔreba a wɔpɛɛ sɛ wɔde wɔn nsa ka nʼatadeɛ.
For he had healed many, so that as many as had diseases pressed on him that they might touch him.
11 Ɛberɛ biara a wɔn a wɔwɔ ahonhommɔne no bi bɛhunu no no, wɔtwa hwe fam, woso biribiri, ka sɛ, “Woyɛ Onyankopɔn Ba.”
And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, fell down before him, and shouted, saying, "You are the Son of God."
12 Nanso, ɔbɔɔ wɔn ano sɛ, wɔnnkyerɛ onipa ko a ɔyɛ.
And he sternly warned them that they should not make him known.
13 Akyire yi, ɔkɔɔ bepɔ so frɛɛ wɔn a wayi wɔn no baa ne nkyɛn.
And he went up into the mountain, and called to himself those whom he wanted, and they went to him.
14 Ɔyii wɔn mu dumienu a daa wɔne no bɛnante, na wɔakɔka asɛmpa no,
And he appointed twelve, that they might be with him, and that he might send them out to preach,
15 na wɔatu ahonhommɔne nso.
to have authority to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons.
16 Dumienu a ɔyii wɔn no din nie: Simon a ɔtoo no din foforɔ Petro.
And he appointed the twelve. And to Simon he gave the name Peter;
17 Sebedeo mma Yakobo ne Yohane nso, ɔfrɛɛ wɔn Boanerges a, aseɛ ne aprannaa mma.
and James the son of Zebedee; and John the brother of James (and he gave them the names Boanerges, which is to say, Sons of Thunder);
18 Wɔn a wɔka ho nso nie: Andrea, Filipo, Bartolomeo, Mateo, Toma, Alfeo ba Yakobo, Tadeo, ne Simon ɔmanyɛfoɔ,
and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot;
19 ɛnna Yuda Iskariot a ɔyii no maeɛ no.
and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
20 Ɔsane baa efie a ɔte mu no mu no, nnipakuo bi sane baa ne so bio. Ankyɛre koraa na ɛhɔ nyinaa yɛɛ ma a ɔnnya ɛkwan koraa nnidi.
And he came into a house, and the crowd came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.
21 Ne fiefoɔ tee asɛm a aba no, wɔkɔɔ hɔ sɛ wɔrekɔfa no akɔ wɔn efie ɛfiri sɛ, wɔkaa sɛ, “Ne tiri mu ka no.”
And when his family heard it, they went out to take charge of him: for they said, "He is out of his mind."
22 Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ a wɔfiri Yerusalem baeɛ no kaa sɛ, “Beelsebul a ɔyɛ ahonhommɔne panin no afa no, na ɔnam saa tumi no so na ɔtu ahonhommɔne no.”
And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, "He has Beelzebul," and, "By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons."
23 Yesu frɛɛ wɔn kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn abɛbuo mu sɛ, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na Ɔbonsam bɛtumi atu Ɔbonsam?
And so he summoned them, and said to them in parables, "How can Satan cast out Satan?
24 Ahennie biara a ɛne ne ho di asie no bɛgu.
And if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
25 Saa ara na efie biara a ɛne ne ho di asie no nnyina ara ne no.
And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.
26 Na sɛ Ɔbonsam twa ne ho ne ne ho di asie a, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na watumi adi nkonim? Ɔbɛdi nkoguo.
And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he will not be able to stand, but has an end.
27 Obiara ntumi nkɔ ɔhoɔdenfoɔ efie nkɔfa ne nneɛma kwa, agye sɛ, onii no di ɛkan kyekyere ɔhoɔdenfoɔ no, ansa na watumi afa ne nneɛma.
But no one can enter into the house of the strong man to plunder, unless he first binds the strong man; and then he will plunder his house.
28 Mereka akyerɛ mo sɛ, bɔne a onipa ayɛ biara no, wɔtumi de kyɛ no, na mpo obi ka abususɛm tia me a, wɔtumi de kyɛ no;
Truly I tell you, all human sins will be forgiven, including their blasphemies with which they may blaspheme;
29 nanso deɛ ɔka abususɛm tia Honhom Kronkron no deɛ, wɔremfa nkyɛ no da. Ɛyɛ bɔne a ɛrempepa da.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
but whoever may blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin"— (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
30 Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔka sɛ, “Ɔwɔ honhommɔne.”
because they said, "He has an unclean spirit."
31 Ɔgu so rekyerɛkyerɛ no, ne maame ne ne nuanom bɛgyinaa nnipadɔm no mu baabi somaa obi sɛ, ɔnkɔfrɛ no mmra, na wɔne no nkasa.
And then his mother and his brothers came, and standing outside, they sent to him, calling him.
32 Saa ɛberɛ no na nnipadɔm no atwa ne ho ahyia. Nnipa no ka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Wo maame ne wo nuanom gyina afikyire hɔ pɛ sɛ wɔne wo kasa.”
And a crowd was sitting around him, and they told him, "Look, your mother and your brothers are outside looking for you."
33 Yesu bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Hwan ne me maame? Ɛhefoɔ ne me nuanom?”
And he answered them, saying, "Who are my mother and my brothers?"
34 Ɔhwɛɛ nnipadɔm no hyiaeɛ kaa sɛ, “Yeinom ne me maame ne me nuanom!
And looking around at those who sat around him, he said, "Look, my mother and my brothers.
35 Obiara a ɔbɛyɛ Onyankopɔn apɛdeɛ no, ɔno ne me nuabarima ne me nuabaa ne me maame.”
For whoever does the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother."
