< Marko 5 >
1 Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ bɛduruu ɛpo no fa baabi wɔ Gerasefoɔ asase so.
And they came unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes.
2 Ɔresi afiri kodoɔ no mu no, ɔbarima bi a honhommɔne wɔ ne mu de mmirika firi amusieeɛ bɛhyiaa no.
And, when he went forth out of the boat, [straightway], there met him, from amongst the tombs, a man, in an impure spirit:
3 Na saa ɔbarima yi te amusieeɛ hɔ.
who had his dwelling among the tombs, and, not even with a chain, any longer, was anyone able to bind him, —
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 of his having been, many times, with fetters and chains, bound, and the chains having been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters smashed, and no one was mighty enough to tame 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, was he crying aloud, and cutting himself in pieces with stones.
6 Ɔbarima yi hunuu Yesu wɔ akyirikyiri no, ɔtuu mmirika, bɛbuu no nkotodwe.
And, seeing Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him;
7 Ɔteateaam sɛ, “Yesu, Ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn no Ba, ɛdeɛn na wowɔ ne me yɛ? Mesrɛ wo, ɛnyɛ me ayayadeɛ biara!”
and, crying out with a loud voice, saith—What have in common with thee? O Jesus, Son of God Most High? I adjure thee by God, —Do not torment me!
8 Yesu tiaa honhommɔne a ɛwɔ ɔbarima no mu no sɛ, “Honhommɔne, firi ne mu fi!”
For he was saying to him—Go forth thou impure 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 was questioning him—What is thy name? and he saith to him—Legion, is my name, because we are, many;
10 Afei, ɔsrɛɛ Yesu anibereɛ so sɛ ɔmmpam wɔn nkɔ akyirikyiri.
and he was beseeching him much that he would not send them forth outside the country.
11 Saa ɛberɛ no, na mprakokuo bi redidi wɔ bepɔ no nkyɛn baabi a ɛbɛn ɛpo no.
Now there was there, near the mountain, a large 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, into them, we may enter;
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 he suffered them. And the impure spirits, going out, entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the cliff 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, they who had been feeding them, fled, and bare tidings into the city and into the fields, —and they came to see what it was that had happened.
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 unto Jesus, and view the demonized man, clothed and of sound mind, him who had had the legion, —and they were struck with fear.
16 Wɔn a wɔhunuu asɛm a asi no ka kyerɛɛ afoforɔ,
And the beholders narrated to them, how it happened to the demonized man, and concerning the swine.
17 maa nnipakuo no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ, ɔmfiri wɔn nkyɛn nkɔ, na wɔn ho ntɔ wɔn!
And they began to beseech him, to depart from their bounds.
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 was entering into the boat, he who had been demonized was beseeching him, that, with him, he might be.
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 saith unto him—Withdraw into thy house, unto thine own, and bear tidings unto them, how many things the Lord for thee hath done, and hath 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 departed, and began proclaiming, in the Decapolis, how many things Jesus had done for him, —and, all, were marvelling.
21 Yesu de kodoɔ no tware baa ɛpo no fa baabi no, nnipakuo bɛtwaa ne ho hyiaa wɔ mpoano hɔ.
And, Jesus crossing over in the boat again unto the other side, there was gathered a large multitude unto him, and he was by the lake.
22 Asafopanin bi a na ɔwɔ hɔ a wɔfrɛ no Yairo no, buu Yesu nkotodwe,
And there cometh one of the synagogue-rulers, by name Jairus, and, seeing him, falleth 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 beseecheth him much, saying—My little daughter is at her last!—that, coming, thou wouldest lay thy hands upon her, that she may be made well, and live;
24 Yesu ne no kɔeɛ a nnipakuo no di wɔn akyi.
and he departed with him. And there was following him a large multitude, and they were pressing upon him.
25 Na ɔbaa bi a watu mogya mfirinhyia dumienu ka nnipakuo no ho.
And, a woman, who had had a flow 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 suffered much from many physicians, and spent all her means, and profited, nothing, —but had, rather, become 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.
hearing the things about Jesus, came in the crowd from behind, and touched his mantle;
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 was saying—If I can touch so much as his mantle, I shall be made well;
29 Ampa ara, ɛsɔ a ɔsɔɔ nʼatadeɛ no mu pɛ, na mogya no twa maa ne ho tɔɔ no!
and, straightway, the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she knew, in her body, that she was healed from the plague.
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, straightway, Jesus, taking note in himself of the power which, out of him, went forth, turning round in the crowd, was saying—Who hath touched my garments?
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 were saying to him—Thou seest the crowd pressing upon thee, —and sayest thou—Who hath touched me?
32 Nanso, ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔhunu onipa ko a ɔsɔɔ nʼatadeɛ mu no.
and he was looking round to see her who, this thing had done.
33 Ɛberɛ a ɔbaa no hunuu asɛm a asie no, ɔde ahopopoɔ bɛbuu Yesu nkotodwe kaa deɛ ɔyɛeɛ no kyerɛɛ no.
And, the woman, overcome with fear, and trembling, knowing what had happened to 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 hath made thee well; withdraw into peace, and be whole from thy plague.
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 yet he is speaking, they come from the synagogue-ruler’s, saying—Thy daughter, is dead! Why, further, annoy the teacher?
36 Yesu antie deɛ na wɔreka no koraa, na ɔka kyerɛɛ Yairo sɛ, “Nsuro, gye di ara.”
But, Jesus, overhearing the word being spoken, saith unto the synagogue-ruler—Do not fear, only have faith!
37 Afei, Yesu amma obiara anni nʼakyi ankɔ Yairo efie hɔ gye Petro, Yakobo ne Yohane.
And he suffered no one to follow with 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 they come into the house of the synagogue-ruler, and he observeth a tumult, and persons 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, he saith unto them—Why are ye making a tumult, and weeping? The child, is, not dead, but, is sleeping;
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 were deriding him. But, he, thrusting all forth, taketh with him the father of the child, and the mother, and them who were with him, —and entereth where the child was;
41 Ɔsɔɔ abɔfra no nsa kaa sɛ, “Talita, Kumm!” a aseɛ ne sɛ “Abaayewa, mese wo sɛ sɔre!”
and, grasping the hand of the child, he saith unto her—Talitha, koum! which is, when translated—O damsel! to thee, I say, 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, straightway, the damsel arose, and was walking about; for she was twelve years of age. And they were beside themselves, straightway, with a great transport;
43 Yesu bɔɔ wɔn ano sɛ wɔnnka asɛm a asie no nkyerɛ obiara, na mmom, wɔmma abɔfra no aduane nni.
and he commanded them, again and again, that, no one, should get to know this thing, —and bade that food should be given her to eat.
