Yohana 20
1 Ni bu'u bu'u mble ni vi u mumla, ni mi sati'a u bubu ri tie bu'u ri, Maryamu Magdaliya aye ni nyu be, aye to ba ban tita wa ahe ni ny be rju ye.
Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance.
2 Nda kma tsutsu hi ni ba Siman Bitrus mba almajere mba wa Yesu ni son'a, na hla bawu, “Ba ban Bachi ni mi be, ki na to bubu wa ba ka yo'a na.”
So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb,” she said, “and we do not know where they have put Him!”
3 U ba Bitrus ni almajere mba ba rju na hi ni be'a.
Then Peter and the other disciple set out for the tomb.
4 Wawu mba wu ba tsutsu me, u almajiri ri ma a kari guchi ni Bitrus ni be'a.
The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.
5 Wa kudran na kloto ya, na to ipri nkinkla re me ni bubu'a, nda na ri hi ni mi na.
He bent down and looked in at the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.
6 U Siman Bitrus a ye ri ni kogon na ri hi ni mi be'a, na to ipri nkinklan re me a kri
Simon Peter arrived just after him. He entered the tomb and saw the linen cloths lying there.
7 ni vi pre wa a he ni tuma. Ani he ni bubu riri ni pre na, na ch'bi kpama kuru kan.
The cloth that had been around Jesus’ head was rolled up, lying separate from the linen cloths.
8 U almajiri wa a guchi hi ni nyu be'a ngame, lu ri hi ni mi be'a na ka to, na kpanyeme.
Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.
9 Hra ye ni nton kime, bana ya to tre Irji wa a hla, ani la ta sh'me ni kwu.
For they still did not understand from the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.
10 U almajere ba ba kma hi koh ngari.
Then the disciples returned to their homes.
11 U Maryamu kri nyu be na siyi. Niwa a siyi, na kudran ya mi be'a.
But Mary stood outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent down to look into the tomb,
12 Iwa to Maleku hari ba son ni nklon nkinklan, iri kotu u iri ni ko za ni bubu wa ba ka Yesu yo.
and she saw two angels in white sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and the other at the feet.
13 U ba hla niwu, “Iwa ni nko u yi ni tu ngye? Wa hla, nitu wa ba ban Bachi mu, mina to bubu wa ba ka zi'a na.
“Woman, why are you weeping?” they asked. “Because they have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I do not know where they have put Him.”
14 A tre kle, nikogon ki, na k'ma ya na to Yesu kri niki, nda na to ndi a Yesu na.
When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there; but she did not recognize that it was Jesus.
15 Yesu tre niwu, “Iwa u yi ngye? Wu si wa nha yi?” A ban andi ahi indji wa ani tie ndu ni rju'a, (labu). U wa hla niwu, “Iti ko u tie ban wu, u ka hla wurji wa u ka zi'a, ni ndu mi ban wu.”
“Woman, why are you weeping?” Jesus asked. “Whom are you seeking?” Thinking He was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried Him off, tell me where you have put Him, and I will get Him.”
16 Yesu hla niwu, “Maryamu.” Wa kma ya, na hla niwu ni Armaniyanci, “Rabboni” andi mala.
Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
17 Yesu hla niwu, na bre wo ni me na, mi na hon hi ni Ti'a rina, hi ni mri vayi Mu ni hla bawu, mi hi ni Timu ni Timbi, Irji mu ni Irji mbi.
“Do not cling to Me,” Jesus said, “for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go and tell My brothers, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, to My God and your God.’”
18 Maryamu Magadaliya ahi na ka hla almaere “Mi ka to Bachi” na hla andi a hla wawu ikpe biyi.
Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them what He had said to her.
19 Ni yalu chachuki ni vi u mumla u sati'a almajere ba tro kpamba krju ti ni miko nitu sissri Yahudawa, Yesu ye kukri ni mi tsutsu mba, na tre, “Isi suron ni yi.”
It was the first day of the week, and that very evening, while the disciples were together with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them. “Peace be with you!” He said to them.
20 Ni kogon wa a hla naki, na ka wo ma tsro ba ni ko san, u almajere ba ngyiri ni wa ba to Bachi'a
After He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
21 Yesu la hla bawu ngari, “Isi sron niyi, na wa Iti'a a ton me, Ime me mi ton yi.”
Again Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, so also I am sending you.”
22 Wa Yesu tre naki, na fu vri ma sru ni bawu, na hla bawu kpa Brji Tsatsra (Ruhu) Maitsarki.
When He had said this, He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
23 Indji wa bi kpa latre wru hle niwu, ba kpa wru hle niwu indji wa bi nji latrema ba nji latre'a.
If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you withhold forgiveness from anyone, it is withheld.”
24 Toma, iri ni mi wlon don ha, wa ba yo ni vren hlan hen'a, ahe ni bana ninton wa Yesu ye rju ni tuma ni bawu'a na.
Now Thomas called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.
25 Imbru almajere ba hla niwu, “ki to Bachi.” A hla ni bawu, “Se mi toh wrji wa ba kpan ni wo ma ri, ni ka vren wo mu yo nitu wrji'a ri mika kpa nyeme.”
So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he replied, “Unless I see the nail marks in His hands, and put my finger where the nails have been, and put my hand into His side, I will never believe.”
26 Niwa a tie vi tandra, mri koh ma ba he nimi ngari, u Toma ahe ni ba. Yesu ka ye ka ba tro ba nkon ba, na kri ni mi mba, nda hla ndi, “Si sron ni yiwu.”
Eight days later, His disciples were once again inside with the doors locked, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”
27 U nda hla ni Toma, “Ka vren wo me yo niwayi ndi to wo Mu'a. Ka wo me yo ni wayi ni yo'u ni kosan Mu. Na ka kpa nyeme na, ndi kpa nyeme.
Then Jesus said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and look at My hands. Reach out your hand and put it into My side. Stop doubting and believe.”
28 Toma ka kpa sa na hla niwu ndi, “Bachi mu ni Irji mu.”
Thomas replied, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Yesu ka hla ni wu ndi, “Nitu wa wu to Me ri, ndi kpa nyeme. Lulu ni ba ndji biwa bana to na, nda kpa nyeme.”
Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
30 Zizan Yesu tie gbugbu gban bari ni shishi mri koh Ma, gban wa bana nha ba sru ni mi nvunvu yi na,
Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.
31 ama biyi ba nha ba zi nitu dun yi kpa nyeme ndi Yesu yi a Kristi'a, Ivren Irji, nitu kpa nyeme mbi, bi kpa ivri ni mi nde Ma.
But these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name.
