< Marko 5 >
1 Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ bɛduruu ɛpo no fa baabi wɔ Gerasefoɔ asase so.
And they came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarenes.
2 Ɔresi afiri kodoɔ no mu no, ɔbarima bi a honhommɔne wɔ ne mu de mmirika firi amusieeɛ bɛhyiaa no.
And immediately on his going out of the ship there met him out of the tombs a man possessed by an unclean spirit,
3 Na saa ɔbarima yi te amusieeɛ hɔ.
who had his dwelling in the tombs; and no one was able to bind him, not even with chains;
4 Ɔyɛ obi a na ne ho yɛ den yie enti, sɛ wɔde nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn mpo gu ne nsa a, ɔtumi bubu mu a obiara ntumi nkɔ nʼanim.
because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn asunder by him, and the fetters were shattered; and no one was able to subdue him.
5 Anadwo ne awia nyinaa na ɔnenam amusieeɛ hɔ mmepɔ no mu a, ɔde aboɔ a ano yɛ nam twitwa ne ho.
And continually night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying and cutting himself with stones.
6 Ɔbarima yi hunuu Yesu wɔ akyirikyiri no, ɔtuu mmirika, bɛbuu no nkotodwe.
But seeing Jesus from afar off, he ran and did him homage,
7 Ɔteateaam sɛ, “Yesu, Ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn no Ba, ɛdeɛn na wowɔ ne me yɛ? Mesrɛ wo, ɛnyɛ me ayayadeɛ biara!”
and crying with a loud voice he says, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, torment me not.
8 Yesu tiaa honhommɔne a ɛwɔ ɔbarima no mu no sɛ, “Honhommɔne, firi ne mu fi!”
For he said to him, Come forth, unclean spirit, out of the man.
9 Yesu bisaa no sɛ, “Wɔfrɛ wo sɛn?” Ɔbuaa Yesu sɛ, “Me din de ‘Ɛdɔm’ ɛfiri sɛ, yɛdɔɔso.”
And he asked him, What is thy name? And he says to him, Legion is my name, because we are many.
10 Afei, ɔsrɛɛ Yesu anibereɛ so sɛ ɔmmpam wɔn nkɔ akyirikyiri.
And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11 Saa ɛberɛ no, na mprakokuo bi redidi wɔ bepɔ no nkyɛn baabi a ɛbɛn ɛpo no.
Now there was there just at the mountain a great herd of swine feeding;
12 Enti, ahonhommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Tu yɛn na yɛnkɔhyɛ mprako no mu.”
and they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine that we may enter into them.
13 Yesu maa wɔn ho ɛkwan ma wɔkɔhyɛɛ mprako no mu. Mprako no de ahoɔherɛ sianee bepɔ no kɔguu ɛpo no mu ma ɛfaa wɔn.
And Jesus [immediately] allowed them. And the unclean spirits going out entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep slope, into the sea (about two thousand), and were choked in the sea.
14 Mprakohwɛfoɔ no dwane baa nkuro a ɛbɛn hɔ no mu bɛkaa deɛ wɔahunu no kyerɛɛ wɔn. Wɔn a wɔteeɛ no kɔhwɛɛ deɛ asie no.
And those that were feeding them fled and reported it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had taken place.
15 Nnipakuo no duruu baabi a Yesu wɔ no, wɔhunuu ɔbarima a na honhommɔne ahyɛ no ma no sɛ ɔte hɔ dinn a nʼadwenem ate no. Yei maa wɔn ho dwirii wɔn.
And they come to Jesus, and they see the possessed of demons sitting [and] clothed and sensible, [him] that had had the legion: and they were afraid.
16 Wɔn a wɔhunuu asɛm a asi no ka kyerɛɛ afoforɔ,
And they that had seen [it] related to them how it had happened to the [man] possessed by demons, and concerning the swine.
17 maa nnipakuo no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ, ɔmfiri wɔn nkyɛn nkɔ, na wɔn ho ntɔ wɔn!
And they began to beg him to depart from their coasts.
18 Enti, ɔsane foro kɔtenaa kodoɔ no mu. Ɔbarima a na honhommɔne wɔ ne mu no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔne no kɔ.
And as he went on board ship, the man that had been possessed by demons besought him that he might be with him.
19 Nanso, Yesu kaa sɛ, “Dabi, na kɔ na kɔka anwanwadeɛ a Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama wo yi ne nʼahummɔborɔ ho asɛm kyerɛ wʼabusuafoɔ.”
And he suffered him not, but says to him, Go to thine home to thine own people, and tell them how great things the Lord has done for thee, and has had mercy on thee.
20 Enti, ɔbarima no firi hɔ kɔɔ Dekapoli, “Nkuro Edu” no a, ɛwɔ saa ɔmantam no mu, kɔkaa anwanwadeɛ a Yesu ayɛ ama no no kyerɛɛ obiara. Wɔtee asɛm no, wɔn ho dwirii wɔn.
And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him; and all wondered.
21 Yesu de kodoɔ no tware baa ɛpo no fa baabi no, nnipakuo bɛtwaa ne ho hyiaa wɔ mpoano hɔ.
And Jesus having passed over in the ship again to the other side, a great crowd gathered to him; and he was by the sea.
22 Asafopanin bi a na ɔwɔ hɔ a wɔfrɛ no Yairo no, buu Yesu nkotodwe,
And [behold] there comes one of the rulers of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and seeing him, falls down at his feet;
23 srɛɛ no sɛ, ɔnsa ne babaa yadeɛ mma no. Ɔfiri ahoyera mu ka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Abɔfra no rewu, enti mesrɛ wo sɛ, fa wo nsa bɛka no na ɔnnya nkwa.”
and he besought him much, saying, My little daughter is at extremity; [I pray] that thou shouldest come and lay thy hands upon her so that she may be healed, and may live.
24 Yesu ne no kɔeɛ a nnipakuo no di wɔn akyi.
And he went with him, and a large crowd followed him and pressed on him.
25 Na ɔbaa bi a watu mogya mfirinhyia dumienu ka nnipakuo no ho.
And a certain woman who had had a flux of blood twelve years,
26 Ɔde ne yadeɛ no akyin ayaresafoɔ bebree so, atua sika bebree ama wayɛ ohiani, nanso na ne ho ntɔ no ara.
and had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent everything she had and had found no advantage from it, but had rather got worse,
27 Na wate anwanwadeɛ a Yesu ayɛ no nyinaa, na ɛno enti ɔde ne ho fraa nnipakuo no, firii Yesu akyi sɔɔ nʼatadeɛ ano.
having heard concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind and touched his clothes;
28 Ɔdwenee ho kaa sɛ, “Sɛ metumi nya ne ho ɛkwan, de me nsa sɔ nʼatadeɛ mu kɛkɛ a, me ho bɛtɔ me.”
for she said, If I shall touch but his clothes I shall be healed.
29 Ampa ara, ɛsɔ a ɔsɔɔ nʼatadeɛ no mu pɛ, na mogya no twa maa ne ho tɔɔ no!
And immediately her fountain of blood was dried up, and she knew in her body that she was cured from the scourge.
30 Amonom hɔ ara, Yesu tee nka sɛ tumi bi afiri ne mu. Ɔdanee ne ho kyerɛɛ nnipakuo no bisaa sɛ, “Hwan na ɔsɔɔ mʼatadeɛ mu no?”
And immediately Jesus, knowing in himself the power that had gone out of him, turning round in the crowd said, Who has touched my clothes?
31 Nʼasuafoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Saa nnipakuo a obiara de ne ho twitwiri ne yɔnko yi na worebisa sɛ, ‘Hwan na ɔde ne nsa aka mʼatadeɛ?’”
And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the crowd pressing on thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
32 Nanso, ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔhunu onipa ko a ɔsɔɔ nʼatadeɛ mu no.
And he looked round about to see her who had done this.
33 Ɛberɛ a ɔbaa no hunuu asɛm a asie no, ɔde ahopopoɔ bɛbuu Yesu nkotodwe kaa deɛ ɔyɛeɛ no kyerɛɛ no.
But the woman, frightened and trembling, knowing what had taken place in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
34 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɔbabaa, wo gyidie ama wo ho atɔ wo; fa asomdwoeɛ kɔ; wo yadeɛ no agyae.”
And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith has healed thee; go in peace, and be well of thy scourge.
35 Ɔgu so rekasa kyerɛ ɔbaa no no, abɔfoɔ firi Yairo efie bɛbɔɔ amaneɛ sɛ, Yairo babaa no awu, enti ɛho nhia sɛ Yesu bɛba bio.
While he was yet speaking, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's [house], saying, Thy daughter has died, why troublest thou the teacher any further?
36 Yesu antie deɛ na wɔreka no koraa, na ɔka kyerɛɛ Yairo sɛ, “Nsuro, gye di ara.”
But Jesus [immediately], having heard the word spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not; only believe.
37 Afei, Yesu amma obiara anni nʼakyi ankɔ Yairo efie hɔ gye Petro, Yakobo ne Yohane.
And he suffered no one to accompany him save Peter and James, and John the brother of James.
38 Ɛberɛ a Yesu duruu hɔ no, ɔhunuu sɛ ɛhɔ nyinaa ayɛ manyamanya a nnipa retwa agyaadwoɔ.
And he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and sees the tumult, and people weeping and wailing greatly.
39 Ɔkɔɔ efie no mu ne wɔn a wɔwɔ hɔ no kɔkasaeɛ. Ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn ne agyaadwotwa ne gyegyeegye yi? Abɔfra no nwuiɛ; nna na wada!”
And entering in he says to them, Why do ye make a tumult and weep? the child has not died, but sleeps.
40 Wɔn a wɔwɔ hɔ no tee asɛm a Yesu kae no, wɔseree no. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wɔwɔ efie hɔ no sɛ, wɔn nyinaa mfiri adi. Ɔne abɔfra no agya ne ne maame ne nʼasuafoɔ baasa no kɔɔ deɛ abɔfra no da hɔ.
And they derided him. But he, having put [them] all out, takes with [him] the father of the child, and the mother, and those that were with him, and enters in where the child was lying.
41 Ɔsɔɔ abɔfra no nsa kaa sɛ, “Talita, Kumm!” a aseɛ ne sɛ “Abaayewa, mese wo sɛ sɔre!”
And having laid hold of the hand of the child, he says to her, Talitha koumi, which is, interpreted, Damsel, I say to thee, Arise.
42 Amonom hɔ ara, abaayewa no sɔreeɛ, na ɔfiri aseɛ nanteeɛ. Na saa abaayewa no adi mfeɛ dumienu. Asɛm a ɛsiiɛ yi maa wɔn ho dwirii wɔn yie.
And immediately the damsel arose and walked, for she was twelve years old. And they were astonished with great astonishment.
43 Yesu bɔɔ wɔn ano sɛ wɔnnka asɛm a asie no nkyerɛ obiara, na mmom, wɔmma abɔfra no aduane nni.
And he charged them much that no one should know this; and he desired that [something] should be given her to eat.
