John 21 – KJV & ASCB

King James Version

John 21:1-25

1After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself. 2There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples. 3Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing. 4But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. 5Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No. 6And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes. 7Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher’s coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea. 8And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes. 9As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread. 10Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught. 11Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken. 12Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. 13Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. 14This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.

15¶ So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. 16He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep. 17He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. 18Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not. 19This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me. 20Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee? 21Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do? 22Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me. 23Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? 24This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true. 25And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

Yohane 21:1-25

Yesu Yi Ne Ho Adi Bio

1Akyire no, Yesu yii ne ho adi bio wɔ Tiberia Po ho kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no mu bi. Ɛkwan a ɔfaa so yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ wɔn no nie: 2Saa ɛberɛ no, na Simon Petro, ne Toma (a wɔfrɛ no Ata), ne Natanael a ɔfiri Kana a ɛwɔ Galilea ne Sebedeo mma ne Yesu asuafoɔ no mu baanu na na wɔwɔ ɔtadeɛ no ho. 3Wɔwɔ hɔ no, Petro ka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wɔaka no sɛ, “Merekɔyi nam.” Wɔn a na wɔka ne ho no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne wo bɛkɔ.” Wɔn nyinaa kɔtenaa kodoɔ mu kɔɔ ɛpo, nanso saa anadwo no wɔanyi nam biara.

4Adeɛ kyee anɔpa a anim retete no, Yesu bɛgyinaa mpoano hɔ, nanso na asuafoɔ no nnim sɛ ɛyɛ ɔno.

5Ɔfrɛɛ asuafoɔ no bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Anuanom, moayi nam bi anaa?”

Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Dabi.”

6Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mongu mo asau no wɔ nifa fam na mobɛyi nam.” Wɔguu asau no sɛdeɛ ɔkaeɛ no. Nam yɛɛ asau no ma sei tɔ a na wɔtwe a ɛntwe.

7Afei, osuani a Yesu dɔ no no ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Awurade.” Ɛberɛ a Simon Petro tee sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade no, ɔhyɛɛ nʼatadeɛ, huri tɔɔ nsuo no mu dware kɔɔ mpoano hɔ. 8Asuafoɔ a wɔaka no tenaa kodoɔ no mu baa mpoano hɔ bi. Wɔreba no, na wɔretwe asau a na nam ahyɛ no ma sei tɔ no. Ɛkwan a ɛfiri faako a wɔwɔ wɔ ɛpo no so ba mpoano hɔ no bɛyɛ mita ɔha. 9Wɔduruu mpoano hɔ no wɔhunuu sɛ obi asɔ ogya retoto nam na burodo bi nso gu nkyɛn.

10Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Momfa nam a moayi no bi mmra.” 11Simon Petro foro kɔɔ kodoɔ no mu kɔtwee asau a na nam akɛseɛ bɛyɛ ɔha aduonum mmiɛnsa wɔ mu no baa mpoano hɔ. Ɛwom sɛ na nam ayɛ asau no ma deɛ, nanso antete. 12Yesu frɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mommɛdidi.” Asuafoɔ no mu biara ammisa no onipa ko a ɔyɛ ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔnim sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade. 13Yesu faa burodo no kyekyɛ maa wɔn. Yei akyi no, ɔkyɛɛ nam a na wɔatoto no nso maa wɔn. 14Yei ne ne mprɛnsa so a Yesu sɔre firii awufoɔ mu no, ɔyii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no.

Petro Kyerɛ Ne Dɔ

15Wɔdidi wieeɛ no, Yesu bisaa Simon Petro sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, wodɔ me sene sɛdeɛ yeinom dɔ me no anaa?”

Petro buaa sɛ, “Aane, Awurade, wonim sɛ medɔ wo.”

Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne me nnwammaa.”

16Yesu sane bisaa no sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, wodɔ me anaa?”

Petro sane buaa sɛ, “Aane, Awurade, wonim sɛ medɔ wo.”

Yesu sane ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hwɛ me nnwan.”

17Yesu bisaa no ne mprɛnsa so sɛ, “Yohane ba Simon, ampa ara sɛ wodɔ me?”

Asɛm yi yɛɛ Petro awerɛhoɔ sɛ Yesu abisa no saa asɛm korɔ no ara mprɛnsa. Enti, ɔka kyerɛɛ Yesu sɛ, “Awurade, wonim biribiara, na wonim nso sɛ, medɔ wo!”

Yesu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛne me nnwan. 18Meka nokorɛ akyerɛ wo. Woyɛ aberanteɛ no, na wotumi siesie wo ho kɔ baabiara a wopɛ, na woyɛ deɛ wopɛ biara nso. Nanso, sɛ wobɔ akɔkoraa a, wobɛtene wo nsam na obi asiesie wo ho ama wo, de wo akɔ baabi a anka wompɛ sɛ wokɔ.” 19Asɛm a Yesu kaeɛ no, ɔde kyerɛɛ owu ko a Petro bɛwu de ahyɛ Onyankopɔn animuonyam. Yesu ka kyerɛɛ Petro sɛ, “Di mʼakyi.”

20Petro twaa nʼani hwɛɛ nʼakyi hunuu sɛ osuani a Yesu dɔ no no di wɔn akyi. Saa osuani yi ne obi a wɔredidi no, ɔtwe bɛn Yesu bisaa no sɛ, “Awurade, hwan na ɔbɛyi wo ama” no? 21Petro hunuu saa osuani yi no, ɔbisaa Yesu sɛ, “Awurade, na yei nso ɛdeɛn na ɛbɛto no?”

22Yesu buaa no sɛ, “Sɛ mepɛ sɛ ɔtena hɔ kɔsi sɛ mɛsane aba a, ɛfa wo ho bɛn? Wo deɛ, di mʼakyi.” 23Asɛm a Yesu ka faa saa osuani yi ho no maa Yesu akyidifoɔ no mu pii susuu sɛ, saa osuani no renwu da. Nanso, na ɛnyɛ deɛ Yesu hwehwɛ akyerɛ ne no, ɛberɛ a ɔkaa sɛ, “Sɛ mepɛ sɛ ɔtena hɔ kɔsi sɛ mɛsane aba a, ɛfa wo ho bɛn?”

24Saa osuani yi ne onipa a ɔdi yeinom nyinaa ho adanseɛ na ɔtwerɛeɛ nso. Yɛnim sɛ nʼadanseɛ no yɛ nokorɛ.

25Nneɛma bebree wɔ hɔ nso a Yesu yɛeɛ a wɔantwerɛ, na sɛ wɔtwerɛeɛ no mmaako mmaako a, anka megye di sɛ ɛrensene ewiase.
