1 Nwoma yi fa adiyisɛm a Onyankopɔn de maa Yesu Kristo sɛ ɔnkyerɛ nʼasomfoɔ deɛ ɛrebɛba no ho. Kristo somaa ne ɔbɔfoɔ kɔɔ nʼakoa Yohane nkyɛn kɔdaa asɛm yi adi kyerɛɛ no,
This is the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants what must soon come to pass. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John,
2 sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Yohane bɛka biribiara a ɔhunuiɛ. Yei ne nʼadansedie ne asɛm a ɛfiri Onyankopɔn nkyɛn ne nokorɛ a Yesu Kristo daa no adi no.
who testifies to everything he saw. This is the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
3 Nhyira nka obiara a ɔbɛkan saa nwoma yi, na nhyira nka wɔn nso a wɔtie adiyisɛm no na wɔdi so sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ wɔ saa nwoma yi mu no. Ɛberɛ no abɛn.
Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear and obey what is written in it, because the time is near.
4 Yohane, Nkyea a ɔkyea asafo ahodoɔ nson a ɛwɔ Asia no nie: Adom ne asomdwoeɛ a ɛfiri deɛ ɔwɔ hɔ, na ɔtenaa hɔ, na ɔreba no ne ahonhom nson a wɔwɔ nʼahennwa anim,
John, To the seven churches in the province of Asia: Grace and peace to you from Him who is and was and is to come, and from the seven Spirits before His throne,
5 ne Yesu Kristo a ɔyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafoɔ ne awufoɔ mu abakan ne asase so ahene sodifoɔ no nkyɛn nka mo. Ɔdɔ yɛn, na ɔnam ne wuo no so agye yɛn afiri yɛn bɔne mu.
and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and has released us from our sins by His blood,
6 Wayɛ yɛn ahemman ne asɔfoɔ sɛ yɛnsom ne Onyankopɔn ne nʼAgya. Ɔno na wɔmfa animuonyam ne tumi mma no daa daa! Amen. (aiōn g165)
who has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and power forever and ever! Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Ɔnam omununkum mu reba. Wɔn a wɔwɔɔ no pea no ne obiara bɛhunu no. Asase so nnipa nyinaa bɛsu no.
Behold, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him—even those who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen.
8 Awurade Onyankopɔn Otumfoɔ no se, “Mene Alfa ne Omega a ɔwɔ hɔ seesei na ɔwɔ hɔ dada na ɔrebɛba no.”
“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is and was and is to come—the Almighty.
9 Mene Yohane, a me ne mo nyinaa yɛ akyidifoɔ. Yɛhunu amane ɛfiri sɛ Yesu ne yɛn ɔhene, na ɔma yɛn ahoɔden wɔ ahohia mu. Esiane sɛ mekaa Onyankopɔn asɛm kaa nokorɛ a Yesu daa no adi enti, wɔtwaa me asuo de me kɔɔ Supɔ Patmo so.
I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance that are in Jesus, was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God and my testimony about Jesus.
10 Awurade da no, Honhom no faa me na metee nne denden bi a ɛte sɛ totorobɛnto a ɛrebɔ wɔ mʼakyi.
On the Lord’s day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet,
11 Ɛkaa sɛ, “Twerɛ biribiara a wohunu, na fa nwoma no kɔma saa asafo ahodoɔ nson a ɛwɔ Efeso ne Smirna ne Pergamo ne Tiatira ne Sardi ne Filadelfia ne Laodikea no.”
saying, “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.”
12 Medanee mʼani pɛɛ sɛ mehunu deɛ ɔrekasa kyerɛ me no. Ɛhɔ na mehunuu sikakɔkɔɔ nkaneadua nson.
Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me. And having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands,
13 Na nkaneadua no mfimfini na onipa bi a ɔte sɛ Onipa Ba a ɔhyɛ atadeɛ yuu a ɛsi ne nan ase a sika abɔsoɔ kyekyere ne koko no gyina.
and among the lampstands was One like the Son of Man, dressed in a long robe, with a golden sash around His chest.
14 Na ne tirinwi yɛ fitaa te sɛ asaawafuturo anaasɛ sukyerɛmma, na nʼani dɛre sɛ ogya.
The hair of His head was white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes were like a blazing fire.
15 Ne nan ase hyerɛnee sɛ ayowaa a wɔanane wɔ fononoo mu na afei wɔatwi ho na ne nne woro so te sɛ nsuworosoɔ a ano yɛ den.
His feet were like polished bronze refined in a furnace, and His voice was like the roar of many waters.
16 Na ɔkura nsoromma nson wɔ ne nsa nifa mu na sekan anofanu a ɛyɛ nnam firi nʼanom baeɛ. Na nʼanim hyerɛn te sɛ owigyinaeɛ awia.
He held in His right hand seven stars, and a sharp double-edged sword came from His mouth. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
17 Mehunuu no no, mekɔhwee ne nan ase te sɛ owufoɔ. Ɔde ne nsa nifa too me so kaa sɛ, “Nsuro! Mene Ɔkannifoɔ ne Okyikafoɔ.
When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. But He placed His right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last,
19 “Enti afei twerɛ nneɛma a wohunu; deɛ wohunu no seesei ne deɛ ɛbɛba akyire no, twerɛ.
Therefore write down the things you have seen, and the things that are, and the things that will happen after this.
20 Nsoromma nson a wohunu wɔ me nsa nifa mu ne sika nkaneadua no nkyerɛaseɛ a ɛyɛ ahintasɛm no ni; Nsoromma nson no yɛ asafo nson no abɔfoɔ, ɛnna nkaneadua nson no nso yɛ asafo nson no.”
This is the mystery of the seven stars you saw in My right hand and of the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.
