Yohane 2
1 Pa tsiku lachitatu munali ukwati mu Kana wa ku Galileya. Amayi ake a Yesu anali komweko,
Two days after this there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and Jesus’ mother was there.
2 ndipo Yesu ndi ophunzira ake anayitanidwanso ku ukwatiwo.
Jesus himself, too, with his disciples, was invited to the wedding.
3 Vinyo atatha, amayi a Yesu anati kwa Iye, “Wawathera vinyo.”
And, when the wine ran short, his mother said to him, “They have no wine left.”
4 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Amayi, chifukwa chiyani mukundiwuza Ine? Nthawi yanga sinakwane.”
“What do you want with me?” answered Jesus. “My time has not come yet.”
5 Amayi ake anati kwa antchito, “Inu muchite chilichonse chimene akuwuzeni.”
His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Pamenepo panali mitsuko yamiyala yothiramo madzi isanu ndi umodzi, imene Ayuda amagwiritsa ntchito pa mwambo wodziyeretsa. Uliwonse unali ndi malita 100 kapena kupitirirapo.
There were standing there six stone water-jars, in accordance with the Jewish rule of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons.
7 Yesu anati kwa antchitowo, “Dzazani madzi mʼmitsukoyi,” ndipo iwo anadzaza ndendende.
Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the water-jars with water.”
8 Ndipo Iye anatinso kwa iwo, “Tsopano tungani ndipo kaperekeni kwa mkulu waphwando.” Iwo anachita momwemo.
And, when they had filled them to the brim, he added, “Now take some out, and carry it to the Master of the feast.” The servants did so.
9 Mkulu waphwando analawa madziwo amene anasandulika vinyo, ndipo sanazindikire kumene vinyoyo anachokera, ngakhale kuti antchito amene anatunga madziwo amadziwa. Kenaka anayitanira mkwati pambali
And, when the Master of the feast had tasted the water which had now become wine, not knowing where it had come from – although the servants who had taken out the water knew –
10 ndipo anati, “Aliyense amatulutsa vinyo wokoma kwambiri poyambirira ndipo kenaka vinyo wosakoma pamene oyitanidwa atamwa kale wambiri; koma iwe wasunga wokoma mpaka tsopano.”
He called the groom and said to him, “Everyone puts good wine on the table first, and inferior wine afterward, when his guests have drunk freely; but you have kept back the good wine till now!”
11 Ichi chinali chizindikiro chodabwitsa choyamba chimene Yesu anachita ku Kana wa ku Galileya. Potero Iye anawulula ulemerero wake, ndipo ophunzira ake anamukhulupirira Iye.
This, the first sign of his mission, Jesus gave at Cana in Galilee, and by it revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
12 Zitatha izi Iye anatsikira ku Kaperenawo pamodzi ndi amayi ake, abale ake ndi ophunzira ake. Iwo anakhala kumeneko masiku owerengeka.
After this, Jesus went down to Capernaum – he, his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; but they stayed there only a few days.
13 Nthawi ya Paska ya Ayuda itayandikira, Yesu anapita ku Yerusalemu.
Then, as the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 Mʼbwalo la Nyumba ya Mulungu Iye anapeza anthu akugulitsa ngʼombe, nkhosa ndi nkhunda ndipo ena akusintha ndalama pa matebulo.
In the Temple Courts he found people who were selling bullocks, sheep, and pigeons, and the money changers at their counters.
15 Chifukwa cha zimenezi Iye anapanga chikwapu cha zingwe ndipo anatulutsa onse mʼbwalo la Nyumbayo, pamodzi ndi nkhosa ndi ngʼombe; Iye anamwaza ndalama zawo ndi kugudubuza matebulo.
So he made a whip of cords, and drove them all out of the Temple Courts, and the sheep and bullocks as well; he scattered the money of the money changers, and overturned their tables,
16 Kwa amene amagulitsa nkhunda, Iye anati, “Tulutsani izi muno! Osasandutsa Nyumba ya Atate anga msika!”
and said to the pigeon-dealers, “Take these things away. Do not turn my Father’s house into a market house.”
17 Ophunzira ake anakumbukira kuti zinalembedwa kuti, “Kudzipereka kwanga ku nyumba yanu kudzandiphetsa.”
His disciples remembered that scripture said – ‘Passion for your house will consume me.’
18 Kenaka Ayuda anamufunsa Yesu kuti, “Kodi mungationetse chizindikiro chodabwitsa chotani chotsimikizira ulamuliro wanu wochitira izi?”
Then some of the religious authorities asked Jesus, “What sign are you going to show us, since you act in this way?”
19 Yesu anawayankha kuti, “Gwetsani Nyumba ya Mulunguyi ndipo Ine ndidzayimanganso mʼmasiku atatu.”
“Destroy this temple,” was his answer, “and I will raise it in three days.”
20 Ayuda anayankha kuti, “Zinatenga zaka makumi anayi kumanga Nyumbayi, kodi Inu mungayimange masiku atatu?”
“This Temple,” the authorities replied, “has been forty-six years in building, and are you going to ‘raise it in three days’?”
21 Koma Nyumba ya Mulungu imene amanena linali thupi lake.
But Jesus was speaking of his body as a temple.
22 Iye ataukitsidwa kwa akufa, ophunzira ake anakumbukira zimene Iye ananena ndipo anakhulupirira Malemba ndi mawu amene Yesu anayankhula.
Afterward, when he had risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the passage of scripture, and the words which Jesus had spoken.
23 Tsopano Iye ali mu Yerusalemu pa phwando la Paska, anthu ambiri anaona zizindikiro zodabwitsa zimene amachita ndipo anakhulupirira dzina lake.
While Jesus was in Jerusalem, during the Passover Festival, many came to trust in him, when they saw the signs of his mission that he was giving.
24 Koma Yesu sanawakhulupirire iwo, pakuti amadziwa anthu onse.
But Jesus did not put himself in their power because he knew what was in their hearts.
25 Iye sanafune umboni wa wina aliyense popeza amadziwa zomwe zinali mʼmitima mwa anthu.
He did not need anyone to tell him about people because he could read what was in them.
