Yohana 20
1 Kundaŵi pe kukanaŵe kucha, lyuŵa lyaandanda lya chijuma pakumala Lyuŵa lya kupumulila, che Maliamu jwa ku Magidala ŵajawile ku lilembe, ni ŵaliŵeni liganga lila lili lyegalambule pambali kutyochela pakwinjilila mwilembe.
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 Nipele, ŵautuchile ku che Simoni Petulo ni ajula jwakulijiganya jwine juŵanonyelwe nnope ni Che Yesu ni kwasalila, “Achikopwesye chiilu cha Ambuje mwilembe mula, ni sooni ngatukukumanyilila kwapi ambisile.”
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 Che Petulo pamo ni jwakulijiganya jwine jula ŵajawile ku lilembe.
Then Peter and the other disciple set out for the tomb.
4 Wose ŵanaŵaŵili ŵautwiche nambo jwakulijiganya jwine jula jwampundile che Petulo, jwaliji jwaandanda kwika ku lilembe.
The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.
5 Paŵakoteme ni kulingulila, ŵasiweni nguo syeswela pe, nambo nganajinjila.
He bent down and looked in at the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.
6 Nipele, che Simoni Petulo nombejo ŵaiche achakuyaga, ŵajinjile mwilembe ni ŵasiweni nguo syeswela sisyaŵijilile chiilu chi Che Yesu,
Simon Peter arrived just after him. He entered the tomb and saw the linen cloths lying there.
7 ni chiguo chiŵammijilile Che Yesu mu ntwe. Chiguo chila nganichiŵa pamo ni nguo syeswela sila, nambo chaliji chepinde ni chaliji pajika.
The cloth that had been around Jesus’ head was rolled up, lying separate from the linen cloths.
8 Pelepo jwakulijiganya jwine juŵalongolele kwika ku lilembe jula, nombejo ŵajinjile nkati, ni ŵaiweni ni kukulupilila.
Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.
9 Ŵaliji nganaŵe kugamanya Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti Che Yesu akusachilwa asyuche.
For they still did not understand from the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.
10 Nipele ŵakulijiganya wo ŵausile kumangwao.
Then the disciples returned to their homes.
11 Che Maliamu ŵajimi paasa lilembe, achililaga. Paŵalilaga, ŵakoteme achilingulilaga mwilembe mula,
But Mary stood outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent down to look into the tomb,
12 ni ŵaweni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaŵili ŵaŵawasile iwalo yeswela, atemi paŵachigoneche chiilu chi Che Yesu pala jumo kuntwe ni jwine ku makongolo.
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 Ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani wo ŵambusisye, “Amao, nkulila ichichi?” Ni ŵajanjile, “Achikopwesye chiilu cha Ambuje ŵangu, ni sooni ngangukumanyilila kwapi achiŵisile!”
“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 Nipele che Maliamu paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, ŵagalawiche panyuma ni kwaona Che Yesu ali ajimi pelepo, nambo nganaimanyilila kuti jwelejo ali Che Yesu.
When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there; but she did not recognize that it was Jesus.
15 Che Yesu ŵambusisye, “Amao, ana nkulilila ichichi? Ana nkwasosa ŵaani?” Che Maliamu akuno achiganisyaga kuti akukunguluka ni jwakuugosa ngunda wa mwana, ŵajanjile, “Achimwene, iŵaga mmwejo nchijigele chiilu chi Che Yesu, musalile kunchiŵisile ni uneji chingachijigale.”
“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 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Che Maliamu!” Ni che Maliamu ŵagalawiche panyuma, ni kwasalila Mchiebulania, “Laboni!” Malumbo gakwe “Jwakwiganya.”
Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
17 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Nkangamula, pakuŵa ngunaŵe kwaula kwa Atati. Nambo njaule kwa achalongo achinjangu nkaasalile kuti, ngwaula kwa Atati ŵangu ŵaali Atati ŵenu, Akunnungu ŵangu ŵaali Akunnungu ŵenu.”
“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 Nipele che Maliamu jwa ku Magidala ŵajawile kukwasalila ŵakulijiganya kuti, ŵaweni Ambuje ni ŵaasalile achila chiŵasalilwe ni Che Yesu.
Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them what He had said to her.
19 Lyaliji ligulo lya lyuŵa lyaandanda lya chijuma pakumala Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila. Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵasongangene pamo mu nyuumba ni minango jaliji jeugale ligongo lya kwajogopa achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi. Pelepo ŵaiche Che Yesu ni kwima pasikati jao ni kwasalila, “Chitendewele kukwenu!”
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 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, Che Yesu ŵalosisye makono gao ni luŵalati lwao. Nipele ŵakulijiganya wo ŵasengwile nnope kwawona Ambuje.
After He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
21 Che Yesu ŵaasalile sooni, “Chitendewele kukwenu! Mpela ila Atati iŵandumile une, ni uneji nguntuma ŵanyamwe.”
Again Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, so also I am sending you.”
22 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵapepelele ni kwasalila, “Mumpochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
When He had said this, He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
23 Mwalechelesyaga ŵandu sambi syao, ŵele ŵandu chalecheleswe, ni aŵala ŵangankwalechelesya, ŵele ŵandu ngalecheleswa.”
If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you withhold forgiveness from anyone, it is withheld.”
24 Che Tomasi jumo jwa ŵakulijiganya likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵala, jwakuŵilanjikwa maŵila, nganaŵa pamo ni achinjakwe paŵaiche Che Yesu.
Now Thomas called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.
25 Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵane ŵala ŵansalile, “Twaweni Ambuje.” Che Tomasi ŵaasalile, “Chingulupilile pachinagawone maŵasi ga misumali ni kuchiŵika chala changu pa maŵasi go ni kuuŵika nkono wangu pa luŵalati lwao.”
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 Nipele pagapite moŵa nsano ni gatatu ŵakulijiganya wo ŵasongangene sooni nkati mula ni che Tomasi ŵaliji pamo nawo. Minango jaliji jeugale, ni Che Yesu ŵaiche ni kwima pasikati jao ni kuti, “Chitendewele kukwenu!”
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 Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile che Tomasi, “Mbiche chala chenu pelepa nnole magasa gangu ni njisenawo nkono wenu mbiche pa luŵalati lwangu. Nkakola lipamba nambo nkulupilile!”
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 Che Tomasi ŵajanjile, “Mmwe ndi Ambuje ŵangu ni mmwe ndi Akunnungu ŵangu!”
Thomas replied, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Ana nkukulupilila ligongo muuweni? Akwete upile ŵelewo ŵakukulupilila pangamona.”
Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
30 Che Yesu ŵapanganyisye imanyisyo ine yejinji paŵaliji ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao yanganiilembekwe mchitabu chi.
Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.
31 Nambo ayiyi ilembekwe nkole kukulupilila kuti Che Yesu ali Kilisito Jwakuwombola, Mwana jwa Akunnungu ni kwa kunkulupilila nkole umi wausyene kwa machili ga liina lyao.
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.
