Yohana 21
1 Ni kogon bi kima, Yesu hla ka tsro Itu Ma ni almajere ma ni nyu nne Tiberiyas. Gen ya nda a tsro tuma:
Afterward, Jesus again appeared to the disciples, at the sea of Tiberias; and in this manner he appeared.
2 Siman Bitrus he mba Toma wa ba yo ni dan tagwai, ni Nataniyel, ni Kana u Galili, ni mri Zabadi, ni almajere Yesu hari bari ngari.
Simon Peter and Thomas, that is, Didymus, Nathanael of Cana, in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples of Jesus, being together,
3 Siman Bitrus hla bawu, “mi hi vu lambe.” U ba tre, “Kita me, ki huwu hi me.” U ba lu rju hi naka ri ni mi ingyu'a, ni chu chachuki bana vu kperi na.
Simon Peter said, I am going a-fishing. They answered, We will go with you. Immediately they went, and got aboard a bark, but that night caught nothing.
4 Se imble ni kpan, u Yesu kri ki ni nye nne, u almajere bana to me nda a Yesu na.
In the morning Jesus stood on the shore; the disciples, however, knew not that it was Jesus.
5 U Yesu tre ni ba, “Mri nze, bi he ni kpe wa bi ri'a?” U ba ti san na tre, “A'a.”
Jesus said to them, My children, have you any victuals? They answered, No.
6 A hla ni bawu, “ta walawa u bu lambe hi ni wo kori ni gyu'a, bi vu bari.” U ba ta walawa mba, yo ni mma, na chu wo kran nitu wa lambe ba ku babran.
Cast the net, cried he, on the right side of the bark, and you will find. They did so, but were not able to draw it, by reason of the multitude of fishes.
7 U almajere ma wa Yesu ni son zan ba hla ni Bitrus, “Ahi Bachi.” U Siman Bitrus a wo naki Ashe ahi Irji, na lu sru kpi ma u ko tu'a (ana son ni kpa kuklu), na ton ku ni mi nne.
Then that disciple whom Jesus loved, said to Peter, It is the Master. Simon Peter, hearing that it was the Master, girt on his upper garment (which was laid aside) and threw himself into the sea.
8 Imbru almajere ba ba ye ni mi gyu vi tsitsa, (nitu wa bana gbonron gon ni bubu'a na, ina kamu deri ha hi ni ko tu), wa chu walawa shu ni lambe rju ni mi mma.
But the other disciples came in the boat, (for they were not farther from land than about two hundred cubits, ) dragging the net, with the fishes.
9 Ni ka walawa yo kora ni lambe'a, u ba to kla nu ni lambe ni tuma ni bredi.
When they came ashore, they saw a fire burning, and a fish laid on it, and bread.
10 Yesu bla nji bari ye ni mi lambe'a niwa bi vu zizan.”
Jesus said to them, Bring of the fishes which you have now taken.
11 U Siman Bitrus a hon, na gbi walawa shu ni lambe deri ni hamsi don tra. Ni bran mba me, walwa na ya ba na.
Simon Peter went back, and drew the net to land, full of large fishes, a hundred and fifty-three; and the net was not rent, notwithstanding the number.
12 U Yesu hla ni bawu, ye ni ye kle ye.” U riri me ni mi almajere ma me na ya miyen na, “A wu nha?” Ba to nda Yesu.
Jesus said to them, Come and dine. Meantime none of the disciples ventured to ask him, Who are you? knowing that it was the Master.
13 Yesu ye, na ban bredi'a, na ga ba, nilambe me.
Jesus drew near, and taking bread and fish, distributed among them.
14 Iki a hi gyu u tra mba Yesu ni tsro tu ma ni almajere ma ni kogon wa a lunde ni be.
This is the third time that Jesus appeared to his disciples, after his resurrection.
15 Ni kogon wa ba kle ya, Yesu hla ni Siman Bitrus, Bitrus vren Yohana, u son me zan biyie?” Bitrus hla niwu, “Ee Bachi, U to ndi mi son wu.” Yesu hla niwu ndi, “No ntma mu ba biri.”
When they had dined, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me more than these? He answered, Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.
16 Ala tre niwu ngari ni nkpu u ha, Siman ivren Yohana, U son me? Bitrus hla niwu, “E, ana Bachi, U to ndi mi son wu.” Yesu hla niwu, “krju ntma mu.”
A second time he said, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love m? He answered, Yes, Lord, you know that I love you. Jesus replied, Tend my sheep.
17 Ala tre niwu u gyu u tra, “Siman ivren Yohana, u son Me?” U Bitrus a ku niri mre nitu wa Yesu a hla tre niwu u gyu tra, “U son Me?” A hla niwu “Bachi, U to wawu kpi, U to ndi mi son wu.” Yesu hla niwu, “No ntma mu biri.
A third time he said, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me? Peter, grieved at his asking this question a third time, answered, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus replied, Feed my sheep.
18 Njanji, njanji, Mi hla ni yiwu, ni wa u na he ni nze me, U ta zon kpame, ni hi wurji iwa u son'a, u ta cheye, u nme wo ba me son, u ndji ri mu ni zon kpa ni wu na ban wu hi ni wurji wa u na son hi'a na.
Most assuredly, I say to you, in your youth you girt yourself, and went whither you would; but in your old age, you shall stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you whither you would not.
19 Yesu hla naki nitu bibi ikwu wa Bitrus ni kwu'a ni ndu Irji kpa gbre san, ni kogon wa a hla naki, na ni Bitrus, hu me.
This he spoke, signifying by what death he should glorify God. After these words, he said to him, Follow me.
20 Bitrus ka ban ya na to almajiri wa Yesu ni son asi hu ba, ni wa a ku yeren ni san Yesu ni ton wa ba si ta ri jibi wa tre, “Bachi, a nha mba ni ka wu le'a?”
And Peter turning about, saw the disciple, whom Jesus loved, following, (the same who, leaning on his breast at the supper, had asked who it was, that would betray him.)
21 Wa Bitrus a to'a na tre Yesu, “Bachi, ahi ngye igu mu ni ti?”
Peter seeing him, said to Jesus, And what, Lord, shall become of this man?
22 U Yesu tre, “Mi ti ni son ni ndu son gben Me niwayi hi ni nton wa Mi kma ye, ume hi ngye? Ye hu Me.”
Jesus answered, If I will that he wait my return, what is that to you? Follow me.
23 Itre ki yra shu ni mi Yahudawa andi, almajiri ki na kwu na. U wana naki na Yesu hla ni Bitrus na, almajiri mba ana kwu na, a tre Mita ni son ndu san, u ime ahi ngye?”
Hence arose the rumor among the brethren, that that disciple should not die; nevertheless, Jesus said not, that he should not die; but, If I will, that he wait my return, what is that to you?
24 A wawu yi almajere wa asi sheda ikpi biyi, iwa a nha ba, u ki to gbigbi sheda ma njanji.
It is this disciple, who attests these things, and wrote this account; and we know that his testimony deserves credit.
25 U mbrun ikpi bari gbugbuwu wa Yesu atie, u ba ni nha ba ni yiyri, mi hla ni yiwu, gbungblu wawu ani na ya ban nvunvu wa ba nha ni ba na.
There were many other things also performed by Jesus, which, were they to be severally related, I imagine, the world itself could not contain the volumes that would be written.
