< Yohana 2 >

1 Pagamasile moŵa gaŵili wapali ulombela musi wa ku Kana chilambo cha ku Galilaya. Ni achikulugwe Che Yesu ŵaliji kweleko,
And, on the third day, a marriage, took place, in Cana, of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there, —
2 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao nombe ŵalalichikwe ku ulombela wo.
and Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, unto the marriage.
3 Pajamasile divai jiŵalingenye kwa ligongo lya ulombela, achikulugwe Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Nganakola divai!”
And, wine falling short, the mother of Jesus saith unto him—Wine, have they none!
4 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Nkaasalila chakupanganya, katema kangu kakanaŵe kwika.”
And Jesus saith unto her—What part can I take with thee, O woman? Not yet, hath come, mine hour.
5 Pelepo achikulugwe Che Yesu ŵaasalile achikatumetume, “Chachilichose chichansalile, mpanganye.”
His mother saith unto them who are ministering—Whatsoever he may say to you, do!
6 Pelepo syapali lulo syekulungwa nsano ni umo sya maganga, lwaluli lose lwakombwele kugumbala lulo sya mwana siŵili pane sitatu sya meesi. Syaŵichikwe pelepo mpela itite pakusyoŵeleka kwa Ŵayahudi kutaga meesi ga kuliswejesya kwaligongo lya kwapopelela Akunnungu.
Now there were there, six stone water-vessels, placed, according to the purification of the Jews; holding each, two or three measures.
7 Che Yesu ŵaasalile achikatumetume ŵala, “Ngumbasye meesi lulo syo.” Ni ŵanyawo ŵagumbesye ndendende.
Jesus saith unto them—Fill the vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
8 Nipele ŵaasalile, “Sano ntechanje munjauchisye jwankulu jwa chindimba.” Ni ŵanjauchisye.
And he saith unto them—Draw out now, and be bearing unto the master of the feast. And they bare.
9 Jwankulu jwa chindimba paŵajipasisye divai jijaliji meesi kundanda, nombejo nganakumanyilila kujikopochele divai jo, nambo achikatumetume ŵala ŵaimanyi. Jwankulu jwa chindimba jula ŵambilasile nlombela,
And, when the master of the feast had tasted the water, now made, wine, and knew not whence it was, —though, they who were ministering, knew, even they who had drawn out the water, the master accosteth the bridegroom,
10 ni kunsalila, “Mundu jwalijose kundanda akwapa ŵandu divai jambone ni ŵamalaga kung'wa ni kukolelwa akwapa janganong'a nnope. Nambo mmwejo ntupele divai jambone mpaka sambano.”
and saith unto him—Every man, first the good wine, setteth out; and, when they had been well-supplied, the inferior: —Thou, hast kept the good wine until, even now.
11 Chelechi chili chimanyisyo chakusimosya chandanda chiŵapanganyisye Che Yesu mmusi wa ku Kana chilambo cha ku Galilaya ni ŵaulosisye ukulu wao nombe ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaakulupilile.
This, beginning of his signs, did Jesus, in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
12 Payamasile yeleyo, Che Yesu pamo ni achikulugwe ni achapwakwe ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵala ŵatuluchile ku Kapelenaumu. Ŵatemi kweleko moŵa kanandi.
After this, he came down into Capernaum, —he, and his mother and brethren, and his disciples; and, there, they abode, not many days.
13 Katema ka lyuŵa lyekulungwa lya Pasaka ja Ŵayahudi kaŵandichile ni Che Yesu ŵakwesile ku Yelusalemu.
And, near, was the passover of the Jews; and, Jesus, went up unto Jerusalem.
14 Pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ŵaasimene ŵandu achisumisyaga ng'ombe ni ngondolo ni nguunda ni ŵakutindanya mbiya ali atemi.
And he found, in the temple, them that were selling oxen and sheep and doves, also the money-changers sitting.
15 Ŵapotile ngonji ni kuŵa lubokola ni ŵaaŵinjile wose paasa pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu pamo ni ng'ombe ni ngondolo syao. Ni ŵapikulenye mesa sya ŵakutindanya mbiya ŵala ni kumwasya mbiya syao.
And, making a scourge out of rushes, all of them, thrust he forth out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and, the money-changers’ small coins, poured he forth, and, the tables, he overturned;
16 Ni ŵaŵaliji nkusumisya nguunda ŵala ŵaasalile, “Ntyosyanje pelepa indu yi. Nkajipanganya nyuumba ja Atati ŵangu kuŵa nyuumba jakusumichisya malonda!”
and unto them who were selling, the doves, he said—Take these things hence! Be not making, the house of my Father, a house of merchandise.
17 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵakumbuchile kuti, malembelo gakusala, “Alakwe Akunnungu, unonyelo wangu kwa nyuumba jenu ukundinisya mpela mooto mu ntima.”
His disciples remembered that it was written—The zeal of thy house, eateth me up.
18 Ilongola ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵausisye Che Yesu, “Ana chimpanganye chimanyisyo chachi chakusimosya chakutulosya kuti nkwete lilamulo lya kupanganya yelei?”
The Jews therefore answered, and said unto him, What sign, dost thou point out to us, in that, these things, thou doest?
19 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngumulanje Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ji, ni uneji chindaŵe kwa moŵa gatatu pe.”
Jesus answered, and said unto them—Take down this shrine, and, in three days, will I raise it.
20 Pelepo Ŵayahudi ŵala ŵatite, “Aji Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ji twataŵile kwa yaka makumi ncheche konjechesya nsano ni umo. Ana mmwejo chinkombole chinauli kujitaŵa kwa moŵa gatatu?”
The Jews, therefore, said—In forty and six years, was this shrine built. And, thou, in three days, wilt raise it!
21 Nambo Nyuumba ja Akunnungu jiŵajigambaga Che Yesu jo jaliji chiilu chakwe nsyene.
But, he, was speaking concerning the shrine of his body.
22 Nipele Che Yesu paŵasyuchile, ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵakumbuchile kuti ŵaŵechete gelega, ni ŵagakulupilile Malembelo ga Akunnungu ni maloŵe gaŵaŵechete Che Yesu gala.
When, therefore, he had been raised from among the dead, his disciples remembered, that, this, he had been saying; and they believed in the Scripture, and in the word which Jesus had spoken.
23 Che Yesu paŵaliji ku Yelusalemu mmoŵa ga chindimba cha Pasaka ŵandu ŵajinji paŵaiweni imanyisyo iŵaipanganyisye ŵaakulupilile.
Now, when he was in Jerusalem, during the passover, during the feast, many, believed on his name, viewing his signs which he was doing.
24 Nambo Che Yesu nganalilechelelaga kukwao pakuŵa ŵajimanyilile mitima jao
Jesus himself, however, was not trusting himself unto them, by reason of his understanding them all,
25 ni pakuŵa ŵaimanyilile uchenene yaili mmitima jao, nganasaka kusalilwa chachilichose nkati ŵandu ŵane.
and because he had, no need, that anyone should bear witness concerning man; for, he, understood what was in man.
