< Mateo 8 >
1 Ɛberɛ a Yesu sianee bepɔ no no, nnipadɔm bebree dii nʼakyi.
Now as he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him.
2 Ɔkwatani bi baa Yesu nkyɛn bɛkotoo no, srɛɛ no sɛ, “Me wura, mesrɛ wo, sɛ ɛyɛ wo pɛ a, sa me yadeɛ.”
And behold a leper came and worshipped Him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me:
3 Yesu tenee ne nsa de kaa ɔkwatani no kaa sɛ, “Mɛsa wo yadeɛ. Kwata, firi ne ho kɔ!” Amonom hɔ ara, kwata no firii ne ho.
and Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed: and immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wo ne obiara nni wʼayaresa yi ho nkɔmmɔ. Kɔ na fa wo ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfoɔ, na bɔ afɔdeɛ a Mose hyɛɛ sɛ wɔmmɔ sɛ adansedie no.”
And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
5 Yesu kɔɔ Kapernaum. Ɔduruu hɔ no, Roma asraafoɔ panin bi a ɛdɔm hyɛ nʼase baa ne kyɛn bɛbuu no nkotodwe kaa sɛ,
And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto Him a centurion beseeching Him, and saying, Lord,
6 “Awurade, mʼabɔfra abubu gu hɔ a ɔrehunu amane; mesrɛ wo, bɛsa no yadeɛ ma me.”
my servant lieth in my house ill of the palsy, grievously afflicted:
7 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mɛba abɛsa no yadeɛ.”
and Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
8 Asraafoɔ panin no tee Yesu asɛm a ɔkaeɛ no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Awurade, memfata sɛ woba me fie. Ka biribi na mʼabɔfra no ho bɛyɛ no den.
But the centurion answering said, Lord, I am not worthy that Thou shouldst come under my roof, but speak the word, and my servant will be healed:
9 Meyɛ ɔsraani a mehyɛ tumi ase, na mesane wɔ asraafoɔ a wɔhyɛ mʼase. Meka kyerɛ wɔn mu bi sɛ ɔnkɔ a, ɔkɔ. Meka kyerɛ ɔfoforɔ sɛ ɔmmra a, ɔba. Saa ara nso na sɛ meka kyerɛ mʼabɔfra sɛ ɔnyɛ biribi a, ɔyɛ ara no no.”
for I also am a man under the authority of others, yet have soldiers under me; and I say to one, go, and he goeth; and to another, come, and he cometh; and to my servant, do this, and he doth it.
10 Yesu tee saa asɛm yi no, ɛyɛɛ no nwanwa. Ɔdanee nʼani, ka kyerɛɛ nnipadɔm a wɔdi nʼakyi no sɛ, “Israelman mu nyinaa, menhunuu gyidie a ɛte sei da.
And when Jesus heard it He marvelled, and said to them that followed Him, Verily, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith even in Israel:
11 Na mereka akyerɛ mo sɛ, nnipa pii bɛfiri apueeɛ ne atɔeɛ aba, na wɔne Abraham, Isak ne Yakob ato nsa adidi wɔ ɔsoro ahennie no mu.
but I tell you, that many shall come from the east and from the west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven;
12 Na Israelfoɔ a wɔsiesiee ɔsoro ahennie maa wɔn no mu pii wɔ hɔ a wɔbɛto wɔn agu esum kabii mu, na wɔde wɔn nsa bɛgu wɔn tiri atwa agyaadwoɔ.”
and the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into the outer darkness; where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13 Yesu ka kyerɛ asraafoɔ panin no sɛ, “Kɔ efie. Deɛ wogye die no aba mu ama wo!” Saa ɛberɛ korɔ no ara mu, abɔfra no ho tɔɔ no!
And Jesus said to the centurion, Go, and be it unto thee as thou hast believed. And his servant was healed in that very hour.
14 Yesu kɔɔ Petro fie. Ɔkɔtoo sɛ huraeɛ akyere Petro ase baa ma ɔda hɔ.
And when Jesus came to Peter's house. He saw his wife's mother lying ill of a fever:
15 Yesu sɔɔ ne nsa na amonom, huraeɛ no tu firii ne so. Ɔsɔre noaa aduane maa wɔn.
and He did but touch her hand, and the fever left her; and she rose up and waited on them.
16 Saa ɛda no anwummerɛ no, wɔde wɔn a wɔwɔ ahonhommɔne pii brɛɛ Yesu. Nʼanom asɛm a ɔkaeɛ no maa ahonhommɔne no nyinaa tu yeraeɛ, na wɔn a wɔyare no nyinaa nso ho tɔɔ wɔn.
And when it was evening they brought to him many demoniacs: and he cast out the evil spirits with a word, and healed all that were ill: that it might be fulfilled,
17 Yei maa deɛ Odiyifoɔ Yesaia kaa sɛ, “Ɔfaa yɛn ahoɔmmerɛ, na ɔsoaa yɛn nyarewa nyinaa” no baa mu.
which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, He took our infirmities himself, and bore our diseases.
18 Yesu hunuu sɛ ɛdɔm no redɔɔso no, ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no sɛ, wɔntwa nkɔ asuogya nohoa.
But when Jesus saw great multitudes about Him, he gave orders for departing to the other side of the lake.
19 Ɛhɔ ara Yudani ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ bi ka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ, baabiara a wobɛkɔ no, mɛdi wʼakyiri!”
And a certain scribe came to Him, and said, Master, I will follow Thee whithersoever Thou goest:
20 Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Sakraman wɔ abɔn, ewiem nnomaa nso wɔ mpirebuo, nanso me, Onipa Ba no deɛ, menni baabi a mede me tiri to!”
and Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the fowls of heaven their nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
21 Asuafoɔ no mu baako bɛka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Owura, ma me kwan na menkɔsie mʼagya ansa na mʼabɛdi wʼakyi.”
But another of his disciples, whom he ordered to follow Him, said unto Him, Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father:
22 Nanso, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Di mʼakyi. Wɔn a wɔawu no nsie wɔn awufoɔ”.
but Jesus said unto him; Do thou follow me, and let the dead bury their dead.
23 Yesu saa nyarewa no wieeɛ no, ɔkɔtenaa kodoɔ mu na nʼasuafoɔ no dii nʼakyi.
And when He was entered into the ship, his disciples followed Him:
24 Prɛko pɛ, ahum kɛseɛ bi tuiɛ maa asorɔkye bu bɛkataa kodoɔ no so. Nanso, na Yesu deɛ, wada.
and behold a great tempest rose on the sea, so that the vessel was even covered by the waves; but He was asleep.
25 Nʼasuafoɔ no de nteateamu kɔɔ ne nkyɛn, kɔnyanee no kaa sɛ, “Awurade! Gye yɛn na yɛreyɛ amem!”
And His disciples came to Him, and awoke Him, saying, Lord save us, for we are perishing: and He saith unto them,
26 Yesu nyaneeɛ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mo a mo gyidie sua, adɛn na moabɔ hu saa?” Ɛhɔ ara, ɔsɔre teateaa ahum ne asorɔkye no ma ɛyɛɛ dinn.
Why are ye so frighted, O ye of little faith? Then He rose up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
27 Asuafoɔ no ho dwirii wɔn yie. Wɔbisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, “Onipa bɛn mpo ni a ahum ne ɛpo tie no yi?”
And the men wondered, saying, What an amazing person is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him!
28 Yesu ne nʼasuafoɔ no duruu asuogya wɔ Gadarafoɔ asase so no, nnipa baanu bi a ahonhommɔne wɔ wɔn so firi amusieeɛ bɛhyiaa no. Esiane sɛ na saa nnipa yi yɛ keka enti, na obiara ntumi mfa faako a wɔwɔ hɔ.
And when He was come to the other side, into the country of the Gergesenes, there met Him two demoniacs coming out from the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no one could pass by that way:
29 Wɔhunuu no pɛ, wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ teateaam sɛ, “Onyankopɔn Ba, ɛdeɛn na worehwehwɛ afiri yɛn nkyɛn? Woaba ha sɛ worebɛyɛ yɛn ayayadeɛ ɛberɛ a mmerɛ no nsoeɛ anaa?”
and they cried out, saying, What have we to do with Thee, Jesus thou Son of God? Art Thou come hither to torment us before the time?
30 Saa ɛberɛ korɔ no ara mu na mprakokuo bi redidi wɔ nkyɛn baabi.
Now there was at some distance from them a large herd of swine seeding: and the devils besought Him,
31 Ahonhommɔne no srɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Sɛ wotu yɛn a, fa yɛn kɔhyɛ mprakokuo yi mu.”
saying, If Thou cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine:
32 Yesu tiaa wɔn sɛ, “Momfiri!” Ɛhɔ ara ahonhommɔne no firii nnipa no mu, kɔwuraa mprako no mu. Mprakokuo no nyinaa de mmirika sianee bepɔ no, kɔguu ɛpo no mu ma ɛfaa wɔn.
and He said unto them, Go: and they came out and went away into the herd of swine; and lo, all the herd of swine ran furiously down a precipice into the sea,
33 Ntɛm ara, wɔn a wɔhwɛ mprako no so no tuu mmirika kɔɔ kurom, kɔkaa deɛ asie no kyerɛɛ nkurɔfoɔ.
and perished in the waters. And they that were feeding them fled, and went away into the city, and related all these things, as also concerning the demoniacs.
34 Kurom hɔfoɔ no tee deɛ aba no, wɔbɔɔ twi, kɔɔ deɛ Yesu wɔ hɔ no. Wɔhunuu Yesu no, wɔsrɛɛ no sɛ ɔmfiri wɔn ɔman mu hɔ nkɔ.
And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they intreated Him to depart from their coasts.
