< Yohana 2 >

1 Pagamasile moŵa gaŵili wapali ulombela musi wa ku Kana chilambo cha ku Galilaya. Ni achikulugwe Che Yesu ŵaliji kweleko,
And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao nombe ŵalalichikwe ku ulombela wo.
And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
3 Pajamasile divai jiŵalingenye kwa ligongo lya ulombela, achikulugwe Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Nganakola divai!”
And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith to him, They have no wine.
4 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Nkaasalila chakupanganya, katema kangu kakanaŵe kwika.”
Jesus saith to her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? my hour is not yet come.
5 Pelepo achikulugwe Che Yesu ŵaasalile achikatumetume, “Chachilichose chichansalile, mpanganye.”
His mother saith to the servants, Whatever he saith to you, do [it].
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.
And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
7 Che Yesu ŵaasalile achikatumetume ŵala, “Ngumbasye meesi lulo syo.” Ni ŵanyawo ŵagumbesye ndendende.
Jesus saith to them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them to the brim.
8 Nipele ŵaasalile, “Sano ntechanje munjauchisye jwankulu jwa chindimba.” Ni ŵanjauchisye.
And he saith to them, Draw out now, and bear to the governor of the feast. And they bore [it].
9 Jwankulu jwa chindimba paŵajipasisye divai jijaliji meesi kundanda, nombejo nganakumanyilila kujikopochele divai jo, nambo achikatumetume ŵala ŵaimanyi. Jwankulu jwa chindimba jula ŵambilasile nlombela,
When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was; (but the servants who drew the water knew) the governor of the feast called 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 to him, Every man at the beginning presenteth good wine; and when men have well drank, then that which is worse: [but] thou hast kept the good wine until 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 miracles Jesus performed 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 went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples; and they continued there not many days.
13 Katema ka lyuŵa lyekulungwa lya Pasaka ja Ŵayahudi kaŵandichile ni Che Yesu ŵakwesile ku Yelusalemu.
And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
14 Pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ŵaasimene ŵandu achisumisyaga ng'ombe ni ngondolo ni nguunda ni ŵakutindanya mbiya ali atemi.
And found in the temple those that sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the changers of money, 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 when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;
16 Ni ŵaŵaliji nkusumisya nguunda ŵala ŵaasalile, “Ntyosyanje pelepa indu yi. Nkajipanganya nyuumba ja Atati ŵangu kuŵa nyuumba jakusumichisya malonda!”
And said to them that sold doves, Take these things hence: make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.
17 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵakumbuchile kuti, malembelo gakusala, “Alakwe Akunnungu, unonyelo wangu kwa nyuumba jenu ukundinisya mpela mooto mu ntima.”
And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thy house hath eaten me up.
18 Ilongola ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵausisye Che Yesu, “Ana chimpanganye chimanyisyo chachi chakusimosya chakutulosya kuti nkwete lilamulo lya kupanganya yelei?”
Then answered the Jews, and said to him, What sign showest thou to us, seeing that thou doest these things?
19 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngumulanje Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ji, ni uneji chindaŵe kwa moŵa gatatu pe.”
Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
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?”
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 Nambo Nyuumba ja Akunnungu jiŵajigambaga Che Yesu jo jaliji chiilu chakwe nsyene.
But he spoke of the temple 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 risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this to them: and they believed the scripture, and 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 at the passover, in the feast [day], many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he performed.
24 Nambo Che Yesu nganalilechelelaga kukwao pakuŵa ŵajimanyilile mitima jao
But Jesus did not commit himself to them, because he knew all [men].
25 ni pakuŵa ŵaimanyilile uchenene yaili mmitima jao, nganasaka kusalilwa chachilichose nkati ŵandu ŵane.
And needed not that any should testify concerning man: for he knew what was in man.
