Mateo 28
1 Homeda no akyi, Memeneda ahemadakye, Maria Magdalene ne Maria baako no kɔɔ ɛda no so.
Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb.
2 Amonom, asase wosoo denden; na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ siane firii ɔsoro baeɛ bɛpiree ɛboɔ no firii ɛda no ano, na ɔtenaa so.
And look, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from the sky, and came and rolled away the stone, and sat on it.
3 Nʼanim hyerɛn te sɛ kanea na nʼatadeɛ yɛ fitaa te sɛ nwera.
His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.
4 Awɛmfoɔ no hunuu no no, ehu maa wɔn ho popoeɛ, na wɔhwehwee ase, danee sɛ awufoɔ.
For fear of him, the guards shook, and became like dead men.
5 Ɔbɔfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ mmaa no sɛ, “Monnsuro! Menim sɛ, morehwehwɛ Yesu a wɔbɔɔ no asɛnnua mu no,
The angel answered the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus, who has been crucified.
6 nanso ɔnni ha. Wasɔre kɔ sɛdeɛ ɔkaeɛ no. Mommra mmɛhwɛ deɛ na ɔda hɔ no.
He is not here, for he has risen, just like he said. Come, see the place where he was lying.
7 Afei, monkɔ ntɛm nkɔka nkyerɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, ‘Wasɔre afiri awufoɔ mu, na ɔredi mo anim ɛkan akɔ Galilea akɔhyia mo wɔ hɔ.’ Yei ne nkra a mewɔ de ma mo.”
Go quickly and tell his disciples, 'He has risen from the dead, and look, he goes before you into Galilee; there you will see him.' See, I have told you."
8 Mmaa no de ehu ne anigyeɛ a adi afra tutuu mmirika firii ɛda no so sɛ, wɔrekɔhwehwɛ asuafoɔ no aka ɔbɔfoɔ no nkra no akyerɛ wɔn.
They departed quickly from the tomb, frightened yet with great joy, and ran to bring his disciples word.
9 Wɔrekɔ no, prɛko pɛ, Yesu bɛgyinaa wɔn anim. Ɔkyeaa wɔn sɛ, “Asomdwoeɛ nka mo.” Wɔbuu no nkotodwe, somm no.
And look, Jesus met them, saying, "Rejoice!" And they came and took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.
10 Afei, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnsuro! Monkɔ nkɔka nkyerɛ me nuanom no sɛ wɔnkɔ Galilea nkɔhyia me wɔ hɔ.”
Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go tell my brothers that they should go into Galilee, and there they will see me."
11 Ɛberɛ a mmaa no rekɔ kuro no mu no, awɛmfoɔ a wɔwɛn ɛda no mu bi kɔɔ asɔfoɔ mpanin no nkyɛn kɔkaa deɛ asie no nyinaa kyerɛɛ wɔn.
Now while they were going, look, some of the guards came into the city, and told the chief priests all the things that had happened.
12 Yudafoɔ mpanin no nyinaa hyiaeɛ, na wɔsii no gyinaeɛ sɛ, wɔbɛma awɛmfoɔ no sika aka akyerɛ wɔn
When they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave a large amount of silver to the soldiers,
13 sɛ, “Monka sɛ, ‘Anadwo a yɛdaeɛ no, na nʼasuafoɔ no ba bɛwiaa amu no de kɔeɛ.’”
saying, "Say that his disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.
14 Wɔhyɛɛ awɛmfoɔ no bɔ sɛ, “Sɛ ɛba sɛ amrado te ɛho asɛm a, yɛbɛkyerɛkyerɛ no mu sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔrenyɛ mo hwee.”
If this comes to the governor's ears, we will persuade him and make you free of worry."
15 Yei enti, awɛmfoɔ no gyee sika no kɔyɛɛ sɛdeɛ wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no. Asɛm a wɔkaeɛ no trɛ faa Yudafoɔ no mu nyinaa na wɔgye di de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
So they took the money and did as they were told. This saying was spread abroad among the Jewish people, and continues until this day.
16 Afei, asuafoɔ dubaako no siim kɔɔ Galilea bepɔ a Yesu kaa sɛ wɔnkɔ so no so.
But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had sent them.
17 Ɛhɔ na wɔhunuu no, koto sɔree no. Nanso, na wɔn mu bi nnye nni ara.
When they saw him, they bowed down to him, but some doubted.
18 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, “Wɔde ɔsoro ne asase so tumi nyinaa ama me.
Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
19 Enti, monkɔ nkɔyɛ amanaman nyinaa mʼasuafoɔ. Mommɔ wɔn asu nhyɛ Agya, Ɔba ne Honhom Kronkron din mu,
Therefore go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
