MAT.1.19 | 3,971 | Joseph her husband was a righteous man. Because he didnt want to humiliate her, he decided to call off their engagement quietly. | Ɔnam sɛ na Yosef a ɔyɛ n'asiwa yerɛ he yɛ nipa tenenee na ɔmpɛ sɛ obegu Maria anim ase badwam nti, ɔbɔɔ ne tim pɔ sɛ obegyae no kokoam. |
MAT.1.20 | 3,971 | As he was thinking about this, an angel from the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, Joseph son of David, dont be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child she carries was conceived by the Holy Spirit. | Nso berɛ a ɔyɔɔ sɛ obetu saa anammɔn he pɛ ne Nyankopɔn bɔfoɔ yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ no daeɛso mu, kaa sɛ, Yosef, Dawid ba, nsuro sɛ wobɛfa Maria a ɔyɛ w'asiwa-yerɛ he akɔ wo fie, efiri sɛ, abɔfra a ɔnyem no he firi Honhom Kronkron. |

MAT.1.24 | 3,971 | When Joseph woke up, he did just as an angel from God commanded and took Mary as his wife. | Berɛ a Yosef nyane firii ne nna mu he, ɔyɔɔ sɛdeɛ Awurade bɔfoɔ he hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɔ he; na ɔfaa Maria baa ne nkyɛne sɛ ne yerɛ. |

MAT.14.1 | 3,971 | At that time Herod the ruler heard the news about Jesus. | Saa berɛ he Herode a na ɔyɛ mantam sodifoɔ he tee Yesu ho asɛm;. |

MAT.14.4 | 3,971 | Thats because John told Herod, Its against the law for you to marry her. | efiri sɛ na Yohane taa ka kyerɛ no sɛ, Mmara mma kwane sɛ wobɛware no. |
MAT.14.5 | 3,971 | Although Herod wanted to kill him, he feared the crowd because they thought John was a prophet. | Owom sɛ na Herode pɛ sɛ oku no deɛ, nso na osuro nkurofoɔ he, efiri sɛ bebu Yohane sɛ diyifoɔ. |
MAT.14.6 | 3,971 | But at Herods birthday party Herodias daughter danced in front of the guests and thrilled Herod. | Berɛ a Herode awoda duruu so he, Herodia babaa bɛsaa badwam hɔ, na ɔsɔɔ Herode aniaa. |

MAT.14.8 | 3,971 | At her mothers urging, the girl said, Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a plate. | Ogyinaa ne maame afotuo so, kaa sɛ, Fa Suboni Yohane ti to apampaa so ma me ha yiaa. |
MAT.14.9 | 3,971 | Although the king was upset, because of his solemn pledge and his guests he commanded that they give it to her. | Na hene he werɛ hoeɛ, nso ntam a ɔkaa ne badwafoɔ ne ahɔhoɔ he anim nti, ɔhyɛɛ sɛ bɛmfa ma no. |
MAT.14.10 | 3,971 | Then he had John beheaded in prison. | Ɔsoma maa bɛkɔɔ afiase kotwaa Yohane ti. |
MAT.14.11 | 3,971 | They brought his head on a plate and gave it to the young woman, and she brought it to her mother. | Bɛde too apampaa so braa abaayaa he, na ɔde kɔmaa ne maame. |
MAT.14.12 | 3,971 | But Johns disciples came and took his body and buried it. Then they went and told Jesus what had happened. | Yohane asuafoɔ bɛfaa namu he kosiee no; na bɛkɔ ka kyerɛɛ Yesu. |
MAT.14.13 | 3,971 | When Jesus heard about John, he withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself. When the crowds learned this, they followed him on foot from the cities. | Afei berɛ a Yesu teeɛ he, ɔtenaa kodoɔ mu firii nnipadɔm he nkyɛne kɔɔ baabi a biaa nni. Nso nnipadɔm he teeɛ he, befirii nkuro so nam fam tii no. |
MAT.14.14 | 3,971 | When Jesus arrived and saw a large crowd, he had compassion for them and healed those who were sick. | Na osii fam he, ohuu nkurofoɔ bebree; ne yam hyehyɛɛ no maa bɛ, na ɔsaa bɛ mu ayarefoɔ he yadeɛ. |
MAT.14.15 | 3,971 | That evening his disciples came and said to him, This is an isolated place and its getting late. Send the crowds away so they can go into the villages and buy food for themselves. | Nnwunu dwoeɛ he, nasuafoɔ he baa ne nkyɛne bɛkaa sɛ, Ha yɛ bea a biaa nni, adeɛ so asa; gya nkurofokuo he kwane ma bɛnkɔ nkuraa he ase nkɔtɔ aduane nni. |
MAT.14.16 | 3,971 | But Jesus said to them, Theres no need to send them away. You give them something to eat. | Nso Yesu ka kyerɛɛ bɛ sɛ, Ɔnsɛ sɛ bɛkɔ; homma bɛ bibi nni. |
MAT.14.17 | 3,971 | They replied, We have nothing here except five loaves of bread and two fish. | Bebuaa sɛ, Yenni hwee sɛ paanoo num ne nkyenam mmienu. |
MAT.14.18 | 3,971 | He said, Bring them here to me. | Na ɔkaa sɛ, Homfa mmra me. |
MAT.14.19 | 3,971 | He ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves of bread and the two fish, looked up to heaven, blessed them and broke the loaves apart and gave them to his disciples. Then the disciples gave them to the crowds. | Afei ɔhyɛɛ nnipadɔm he sɛ bɛntenatena serɛ he so. Ɔfaa paanoo nnum ne nkyenam mmienu he, ɔhwɛɛ soro, hyiraa so bubuu paanoo he, na ɔde maa asuafoɔ he, na asuafoɔ he de maa nkurofoɔ he. |
MAT.14.20 | 3,971 | Everyone ate until they were full, and they filled twelve baskets with the leftovers. | Na biaa diiɛ na bɛmeeɛ; na bɛsesaa aseɛ mporoporowa nkɛntɛmma dummienu. |
MAT.14.21 | 3,971 | About five thousand men plus women and children had eaten. | Sɛ yɛde mmaa ne mmɔfra si nkyɛne a, bɛ a bɛdiiɛ he bɛyɛ mmeema mpemnum. |
MAT.14.22 | 3,971 | Right then, Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead to the other side of the lake while he dismissed the crowds. | Amonom hɔaa Yesu maa asuafoɔ he kɔɔ kodoɔ he mu sɛ bentwa nni nanim kane nkɔ asuogya nohoa, na onnya nnipadɔm he kwane. |
MAT.14.23 | 3,971 | When he sent them away, he went up onto a mountain by himself to pray. Evening came and he was alone. | Na ogyaa bɛ kwane wieeɛ he, ɔkɔɔ bepɔ he so kɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ. Nnwunu dwoeɛ he, na ɔno nkoaa ne ya hɔ. |
MAT.14.24 | 3,971 | Meanwhile, the boat, fighting a strong headwind, was being battered by the waves and was already far away from land. | Saa berɛ yi na kodoɔ he mmɛne asaase koraa, na na asorɔkye he ama nnoɔma mu ayɛ dene, efiri sɛ na mframa he bɔ tia bɛ. |
MAT.14.25 | 3,971 | Very early in the morning he came to his disciples, walking on the lake. | Na ahemakye nnɔn mmeɛnsa ɔɔkɔ he, Yesu nantee po he so hyiaa bɛ. |
MAT.14.26 | 3,971 | When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified and said, Its a ghost! They were so frightened they screamed. | Na berɛ a asuafoɔ he huu sɛ ɔnam po he so he, bɛ akoma tuiɛ, na bɛkaa sɛ, Ɔyɛ samane! Na bɛde hu teateam. |
MAT.14.27 | 3,971 | Just then Jesus spoke to them, Be encouraged! Its me. Dont be afraid. | Nso amonom hɔaa Yesu ka kyerɛɛ bɛ sɛ, Homa ho akoma ntɔ ho yam, ɔyɛ me a; honnsuro koraa. |
MAT.14.28 | 3,971 | Peter replied, Lord, if its you, order me to come to you on the water. | Petro buaa no sɛ, Awurade, sɛ ɔyɛ wo a, hyɛ me, na menante nsuo he so mmra wo nkyɛne. |
MAT.14.29 | 3,971 | And Jesus said, Come. Then Peter got out of the boat and was walking on the water toward Jesus. | Ɔkaa sɛ, Bra! Nti Petro si firii kodoɔ he mu, firii aseɛ nantee nsuo he so sɛ ɔɔkɔ Yesu nkyɛne. |
MAT.14.30 | 3,971 | But when Peter saw the strong wind, he became frightened. As he began to sink, he shouted, Lord, rescue me. | Nso ohuu mframa dendene he, osuroeɛ, na ofirii aseɛ sɛ ɔɔmmem he, ɔteaam sɛ, Awurade, gye me. |
MAT.16.1 | 3,971 | The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus. In order to test him they asked him to show them a sign from heaven. | Na Farisifoɔ ne Sadukifoɔ baa Yesu nkyɛne sɛ bɛbɛsɔ no ahwɛ. Nti bɛka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɔ nsɛnkyerɛnne bi a ofiri soro nkyerɛ bɛ. |
MAT.14.31 | 3,971 | Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him, saying, You man of weak faith! Why did you begin to have doubts. | Na ntɛmaa Yesu tenee ne nsa sɔɔ ne mu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, Wo a wo gyidie sua, mmɛ nti ne wogyee akyinnye. |
MAT.16.2 | 3,971 | But he replied, At evening you say, It will be nice weather because the sky is bright red. | Na obuaa bɛ sɛ, Sɛ awia ɔkɔtɔ a, hoka sɛ, Wiem bɛte, efiri sɛ anim ayɛ kɔkɔɔ. |
MAT.14.32 | 3,971 | When they got into the boat, the wind settled down. | Berɛ a beduruu kodoɔ he mu he, mframa he gyaeɛ. |
MAT.16.3 | 3,971 | And in the morning you say, There will be bad weather today because the sky is cloudy. You know how to make sense of the skys appearance. But you are unable to recognize the signs that point to what the time is. | Na anɔpa, Ahum betu, efiri sɛ anim ayɛ kɔkɔɔ ne kusuu. Honim sɛ deɛ bɛkyerɛ wiem tebea ase, nso honnim sɛnea bɛkyerɛ mmerɛ ho nsɛnkyerɛnne ase. |
MAT.14.33 | 3,971 | Then those in the boat worshipped Jesus and said, You must be Gods Son. | Na bɛ a bɛ ya kodoɔ he mu he koto sɔree Yesu, kaa sɛ, Ampa, wo ne Nyankopɔn Ba he. |
MAT.16.4 | 3,971 | An evil and unfaithful generation searches for a sign. But it wont receive any sign except Jonahs sign. Then he left them and went away. | Ho nneemmafoɔ a hoyɛ nnebɔnyɛfoɔ ne adwamammɔfoɔ bisa nsɛnkyerɛnne, nso nsɛnkyerɛnne biaa nni hɔ a bɛde bɛma ho sɛ Yona nsɛnkyerɛnne. Na ogyaa bɛ hɔ kɔeɛ. |
MAT.14.34 | 3,971 | When they had crossed the lake, they landed at Gennesaret. | Na betwaa nsuo he kɔɔ nagya he, bebeduruu Genesaret asaase so. |

MAT.16.5 | 3,971 | When the disciples arrived on the other side of the lake, they had forgotten to bring bread. | Berɛ a asuafoɔ he duruu asuogya nohoa he, bɛ werɛ firii sɛ bɛamfa paanoo biaa. |
MAT.14.35 | 3,971 | When the people who lived in that place recognized him, they sent word throughout that whole region, and they brought to him everyone who was sick. | Na asaase he sofoɔ huu no he, bɛde nkra kɔmaa bɛ a bɛtete mpɔtamu hɔ nyinaa ma bɛde ayarefoɔ a bɛya hɔ nyinaa braa no. |
MAT.3.2 | 3,971 | Change your hearts and lives! Here comes the kingdom of heaven. | Honsakra ho adwene, na soro ahennie he abɛne. |
MAT.16.6 | 3,971 | Jesus said to them, Watch out and be on your guard for the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees. | Yesu ka kyerɛɛ bɛ sɛ, Honhwɛ yie Farisifoɔ ne Sadukifoɔ mmɔreka ho. |
MAT.3.3 | 3,971 | He was the one of whom Isaiah the prophet spoke when he said: The voice of one shouting in the wilderness, Prepare the way for the Lord; make his paths straight. . | Yei ne deɛ diyifoɔ Yesaia kaa ne ho asɛm sɛ, Nea ɔɔteam serɛ so he dɛ, Siesie Awurade akwane, ma natempɔno ntene. |
MAT.14.36 | 3,971 | Then they begged him that they might just touch the edge of his clothes. Everyone who touched him was cured. | na bɛsrɛɛ no sɛ ɔma bɛmfa bɛ nsa nka nataadeɛ mmuano ano; na bɛ a bɛde bɛ nsa kaeɛ nyinaa nyaa ayaresa koraa. |

Verse-aligned text for Ghanaian languages, plus several world languages, for building parallel and monolingual corpora. Every language is aligned on a shared verse key, so any two languages can be joined into a parallel corpus:
- Ghanaian ↔ English (English is the default pair)
- Ghanaian ↔ Ghanaian (e.g. Twi ↔ Ewe)
- Ghanaian ↔ other language (French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Arabic, Chinese, Swahili)
- Monolingual corpus for any single language
How to use
This dataset is meant to be used through the Ghana Corpus Builder library, which downloads only the files you need and joins them for you:
👉 https://github.com/GhanaNLP/ghana-corpus-builder
pip install huggingface_hub
git clone https://github.com/GhanaNLP/ghana-corpus-builder.git
cd ghana-corpus-builder
# Twi ↔ English
python ghana_corpus.py --source twi
# Twi ↔ Ewe, a random 5,000-pair sample
python ghana_corpus.py --source twi --target ewe --limit 5000 --sample
# Monolingual Twi
python ghana_corpus.py --source twi --monolingual
# List every available language
python ghana_corpus.py --list
You can also load the raw CSVs directly:
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
import pandas as pd
path = hf_hub_download("ghananlpcommunity/ghana-corpus",
"Ewe_ewe_v1613.csv", repo_type="dataset")
df = pd.read_csv(path)
Layout
The dataset is split into three viewer configs (ghanaian, english,
reference) because the file groups have different columns:
| Config | File pattern | Columns |
|---|---|---|
ghanaian |
{Language}_{code}_v{id}.csv |
verse_key, version_id, eng, local |
english |
english_cache.csv |
verse_key, eng |
reference |
reference_caches/{Language}_{code}_v{id}.csv |
verse_key, version_id, lang_code, text |
All files share the verse_key column (e.g. JHN.3.16), which is how any two
languages are aligned. The filename itself encodes the language name, code, and
Bible version id, so each file is self-describing.
Identifying a language from a row: the reference config also carries a
lang_code column directly. For Ghanaian rows, the version_id column maps to
a language via
youversion_ghana_versions.csv.
