< Mateo 15 >
1 Ɛda bi, Farisifoɔ ne Yudafoɔ mpanin no bi firi Yerusalem baa Yesu nkyɛn bɛbisaa no sɛ,
Ngalesosikhathi abanye abaFarisi labafundisi bomthetho beza kuJesu bevela eJerusalema bambuza bathi,
2 “Adɛn enti na wʼasuafoɔ no nni Yudafoɔ amanneɛ so? Yɛn amanneɛ a yɛhohoro yɛn nsa ho ansa na yɛadidi no, wɔnni so.”
“Kungani abafundi bakho besephula isiko labadala na? Kabagezi izandla zabo bengakadli!”
3 Yesu nso bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn enti na mo nso mode mo amanneɛ no bu Onyankopɔn mmaransɛm so?
UJesu waphendula wathi, “Kungani lina lisephula umlayo kaNkulunkulu ngenxa yamasiko enu na?
4 Ebi ne sɛ, Onyankopɔn mmara no ka sɛ, ‘Di wʼagya ne wo maame ni,’ na baako nso ne sɛ, ‘Obiara a ɔbɛka asɛmmɔne afa nʼawofoɔ ho no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no,’
Phela uNkulunkulu wathi, ‘Hlonipha uyihlo lonyoko’njalo ‘Lowo othuka uyise loba unina ufanele ukubulawa.’
5 Na mo deɛ, deɛ moka ne sɛ, sɛ obi ka kyerɛ ne maame anaa nʼagya sɛ, ‘Mewɔ adeɛ bi a anka mɛtumi de aboa mo, nanso mede rekɔma Onyankopɔn’ a, ɛnyɛ bɔne.
Kodwa lina lithi nxa umuntu esithi lokho obekungaba lusizo kuyise kumbe unina kuphawulelwe uNkulunkulu,
6 Enti, mo ara monam mo mmara a moahyɛ so bu Onyankopɔn mmara a ɔhyɛɛ sɛ di wʼagya ne wo maame ni no so.
akasamelanga ahloniphe uyise lonina ngakho. Ngaleyondlela lichitha ilizwi likaNkulunkulu ngenxa yesiko lenu.
7 Mo nyaatwomfoɔ! Sɛ Yesaia hyɛɛ mo ho nkɔm sɛ:
Lina bazenzisi! U-Isaya wayeqinisile aze aphrofithe ngani esithi:
8 “‘Saa nnipa yi ka sɛ wɔdi me ni, nanso wɔn akoma mmɛn me.
‘Lababantu bangidumisa ngezindebe zabo, kodwa inhliziyo zabo zikhatshana lami.
9 Wɔsom me ani so kɛkɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔkyerɛkyerɛ mmara a onipa ayɛ na ɛnyɛ deɛ ɛfiri Onyankopɔn.’”
Bangikhonza ngeze; imfundiso yabo yimithetho yabantu.’”
10 Afei, Yesu frɛɛ nnipadɔm no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Montie deɛ meka no na mommɔ mmɔden nte aseɛ.
UJesu wabizela ixuku labantu kuye wathi, “Lalelani lizwisise.
11 Ɛnyɛ adeɛ a ɛbɛkɔ onipa mu no na ɛmma ne ho nte, na mmom, deɛ ɛbɛfiri ne mu aba no na ɛgu ne ho fi.”
Lokho okungena emlonyeni womuntu ‘kakumngcolisi’ kodwa lokho okuphuma emlonyeni wakhe yikho ‘okumngcolisayo.’”
12 Nsɛm a Yesu kaeɛ yi maa nʼasuafoɔ no ba bɛka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wonim sɛ wo nsɛm a wokaeɛ no ama Farisifoɔ no bo afu?”
Abafundi basebesiza kuye bambuza bathi, “Uyakwazi yini ukuthi abaFarisi kubakhubile ukuzwa lokhu?”
13 Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Dua biara a ɛnyɛ mʼagya na ɔduaeɛ no, wɔbɛtu atwene.
Waphendula wathi, “Zonke izihlahla ezingahlanyelwanga nguBaba osezulwini zizasitshunwa lezimpande zazo.
14 Mommmua wɔn koraa! Na wɔyɛ anifirafoɔ a wɔrekyerɛ anifirafoɔ ɛkwan enti wɔn nyinaa bɛkɔ akɔte ahwe amena mu.”
Bayekeleni; ngabakhokheli abazimpumputhe. Nxa impumputhe ihola impumputhe zombili zizawela egodini.”
15 Petro ka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Kyerɛ yɛn ɛbɛ no ase.”
UPhethro wathi, “Sichasisele umzekeliso lowo.”
16 Yesu nso bisaa no sɛ, “Ampa ara sɛ monte aseɛ?
UJesu wababuza wathi, “Lilokhu lingelakuqedisisa na?
17 Monnim sɛ adeɛ a ɛfa onipa anom no fa onipadua no mu na asane aba bio?
Kaliboni yini ukuthi noma yini engena emlonyeni iya esiswini besekuphuma emzimbeni?
18 Asɛm a ɛho nteɛ biara firi akoma a emu nteɛ mu ma ɛgu deɛ ɔkaa saa asɛm no ho fi.
Kodwa lezozinto eziphuma emlonyeni womuntu zivela enhliziyweni yizo ezenza umuntu angcole.
19 Akoma mu na adwemmɔne, awudie, ayerefasɛm, adwamammɔ, korɔno, atorɔ ne ntwatosoɔ firi.
Ngoba enhliziyweni kuphuma imicabango emibi, ukubulala, ukufeba, ukuhlobonga, ubusela, ukufakaza amanga, ukunyeya lokuhlambaza.
20 Yeinom na ɛgu onipa ho fi. Nanso, sɛ obi anhohoro ne nsa sɛdeɛ mo amanneɛ teɛ no na ɔdidi a, ne ho nguu fi honhom mu.”
Lokhu yikho okwenza umuntu angcole, kodwa ukudla ngezandla ezingagezwanga kakumenzi angcole.”
21 Yesu firii ɔman no mu hɔ kɔɔ Tiro ne Sidon.
Esuka kuleyondawo uJesu waya emangweni waseThire leSidoni.
22 Kanaanni baa bi a ɔte ɔman no mu hɔ de su baa Yesu nkyɛn bɛkaa sɛ, “Awurade, Dawid Ba, hunu me mmɔbɔ! Honhommɔne hyɛ me ba mu na sɛ ɛka ne ho a, ɛma ne ho yera no.”
Umfazi ongumKhenani wakuleyondawo weza kuye ezokhala esithi, “Nkosi, Ndodana kaDavida, ake ungihawukele! Indodakazi yami ithwele nzima, ihlutshwa ngamadimoni.”
23 Yesu anka hwee. Nʼasuafoɔ no hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔmpam ɔbaa no mfiri hɔ. Wɔtii mu ka kyerɛɛ no bio sɛ, “Ka kyerɛ no na ɔmfiri ha nkɔ, na ɔde nʼadesrɛ no retuatua yɛn aso.”
UJesu kazange amphendule. Ngakho abafundi bakhe beza kuye bamkhuthaza bathi, “Mxotshe, nangu uselokhu ememeza esilandela.”
24 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ ɔbaa no sɛ, “Wɔsomaa me sɛ memmɛboa Yudafoɔ, Israel nnwan a wɔayera no, na ɛnyɛ amanamanmufoɔ.”
Waphendula wathi, “Ngathunywa kuphela ezimvini ezilahlekileyo zako-Israyeli.”
25 Ɔba bɛkotoo no kɔɔ so srɛɛ no sɛ, “Me wura, boa me!”
Owesifazane lowo weza waguqa phambi kwakhe wathi, “Nkosi, ake ungisize.”
26 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ sɛ wɔbɛgye burodo afiri mmɔfra nsam ato ama nkraman.”
Waphendula uJesu wathi, “Kakulunganga ukuthatha isinkwa sabantwana usiphosele izinja.”
27 Ɔbaa no nso buaa sɛ, “Ɛwom saa deɛ, nanso nkraman no nso tumi di mporoporowa a ɛfiri wɔn wura no ɛpono so gu fam no.”
Owesifazane wathi, “Yebo Nkosi, angithi izinja ziyayidla imvuthu eziwa etafuleni yabaninizo.”
28 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ ɔbaa no sɛ, “Ɔbaa, wo gyidie mu yɛ den. Mɛyɛ wʼabisadeɛ ama wo.” Ɛhɔ ara, ne babaa no ho tɔɔ no.
UJesu wasephendula wathi, “Nkosazana, ulokukholwa okukhulu! Isicelo sakho sesamukelwe.” Indodakazi yakhe yahle yasila ngalesosikhathi.
29 Yesu sane baa Galilea ɛpo no ho. Ɔforo kɔtenaa bepɔ bi so.
UJesu wasuka lapho wehla egudlana loLwandle lwaseGalile. Wasekhwela entabeni wahlala phansi.
30 Nnipa bebree de mpakye, anifirafoɔ, apirafoɔ, mumu ɛnna wɔn a wɔyare nyarewa ahodoɔ baa ne nkyɛn sɛ ɔnsa wɔn yadeɛ, ma ɔsaa wɔn nyinaa yadeɛ.
Kweza kuye amaxuku amakhulu abantu eletha abaqhulayo, iziphofu, izigoga, izimungulu labanye abanengi, bababeka phambi kwakhe; wabasilisa.
31 Anwanwasɛm ni! Wɔn a wɔnkasaa da kasaeɛ; mpakye nyaa ahoɔden; na mmubuafoɔ nanteeɛ, hurihuriiɛ na anifirafoɔ hunuu adeɛ. Nnipadɔm no ho dwirii wɔn ma wɔkamfoo Israel Onyankopɔn.
Abantu bamangala ukubona izimungulu sezikhuluma, izigoga sezitshwaphulukile, abaqhugezelayo sebezihambela leziphofu sezibona. Bamdumisa uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
32 Afei Yesu frɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no nyinaa baa ne nkyɛn ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Nnipa yi yɛ me mmɔbɔ. Wɔabɛdi me nkyɛn ha nnansa. Aduane a ɛwɔ ha nyinaa nso asa. Nanso mempɛ sɛ mema wɔkɔ wɔn afie mu a wɔnnidiiɛ, anyɛ saa a, wɔbɛtotɔ bera wɔ ɛkwan so.”
UJesu wabiza abafundi bakhe wathi, “Ngibazwela usizi lababantu; sebehlale lami insuku ezintathu bengadlanga lutho. Angifuni kubakhulula belambile funa bayathe endleleni.”
33 Nʼasuafoɔ no nso bisaa no sɛ, “Ɛserɛ so ha deɛ, ɛhe na yɛbɛnya nnipadɔm yi ano aduane?”
Abafundi bakhe bamphendula bathi, “Singakuthatha ngaphi ukudla okwaneleyo endaweni ekhatshana kanje ukuba sisuthise ixuku elingaka na?”
34 Yesu nso bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Burodo dodoɔ bɛn na mowɔ?” Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Yɛwɔ burodo nson ne mpataa kakraa bi.”
UJesu wabuza wathi, “Lilezinkwa ezingaki?” Bathi, “Eziyisikhombisa lenhlanzi ezincane ezimbalwa.”
35 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ nnipadɔm no maa wɔn nyinaa tenatenaa ase wɔ ɛserɛ no so.
Wasetshela ixuku labantu ukuba lihlale phansi.
36 Afei ɔfaa burodo nson no ne mpataa no, hyiraa so na ɔbubuu mu de maa asuafoɔ no sɛ wɔmfa mma nnipadɔm no nni.
Wasethatha lezozinkwa eziyisikhombisa lenhlanzi, kwathi esebongile, wazihlephula waziqhubela abafundi, labo bazinika abantu.
37 Wɔn nyinaa dii aduane no mee pintinn.
Bonke badla basutha. Ngemva kwalokho abafundi babutha imvuthu kwagcwala izitsha eziyisikhombisa.
38 Wɔn a wɔdii saa aduane no, na wɔn dodoɔ yɛ nnipa mpemnan a wɔankan mmaa ne mmɔfra anka ho. Wɔdidi wieeɛ no, akyire mporoporowa a wɔtaseeɛ no yɛɛ nkɛntɛmma nson.
Inani lalabo abadlayo lalizinkulungwane ezine kungabalwa abafazi labantwana.
39 Yei akyi, Yesu gyaa nkurɔfoɔ no kwan, ma ɔno nso kɔtenaa kodoɔ mu tware kɔɔ Magadan.
UJesu eselikhulule ixuku labantu, wangena esikepeni waya emangweni waseMagadani.
