< 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.
On the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from it.
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 ran, as fast as she could, to find Simon Peter and the other disciple--the one who was dear to Jesus--and to tell them, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put Him."
3 Che Petulo pamo ni jwakulijiganya jwine jula ŵajawile ku lilembe.
Peter and the other disciple started at once to go to the tomb, both of them running,
4 Wose ŵanaŵaŵili ŵautwiche nambo jwakulijiganya jwine jula jwampundile che Petulo, jwaliji jwaandanda kwika ku lilembe.
but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and reached it before he did.
5 Paŵakoteme ni kulingulila, ŵasiweni nguo syeswela pe, nambo nganajinjila.
Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there on the ground, 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, however, also came, following him, and entered the tomb. There on the ground he saw the cloths;
7 ni chiguo chiŵammijilile Che Yesu mu ntwe. Chiguo chila nganichiŵa pamo ni nguo syeswela sila, nambo chaliji chepinde ni chaliji pajika.
and the towel, which had been placed over the face of Jesus, not lying with the cloths, but folded up and put by itself.
8 Pelepo jwakulijiganya jwine juŵalongolele kwika ku lilembe jula, nombejo ŵajinjile nkati, ni ŵaiweni ni kukulupilila.
Then the other disciple, who had been the first to come to the tomb, also went in and saw and was convinced.
9 Ŵaliji nganaŵe kugamanya Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti Che Yesu akusachilwa asyuche.
For until now they had not understood the inspired teaching, that He must rise again from among the dead.
10 Nipele ŵakulijiganya wo ŵausile kumangwao.
Then they went away and returned home.
11 Che Maliamu ŵajimi paasa lilembe, achililaga. Paŵalilaga, ŵakoteme achilingulilaga mwilembe mula,
Meanwhile Mary remained standing near the tomb, weeping aloud. She did not enter the tomb, but as she wept she stooped and looked in,
12 ni ŵaweni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaŵili ŵaŵawasile iwalo yeswela, atemi paŵachigoneche chiilu chi Che Yesu pala jumo kuntwe ni jwine ku makongolo.
and saw two angels clothed in white raiment, sitting one at the head and one at the feet where the body of Jesus had been.
13 Ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani wo ŵambusisye, “Amao, nkulila ichichi?” Ni ŵajanjile, “Achikopwesye chiilu cha Ambuje ŵangu, ni sooni ngangukumanyilila kwapi achiŵisile!”
They spoke to her. "Why are you weeping?" they asked. "Because," she replied, "they have taken away my Lord, 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.
While she was speaking, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but did not recognize Him.
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.”
"Why are you weeping?" He asked; "who are you looking for?" She, supposing that He was the gardener, replied, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him and I will remove him."
16 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Che Maliamu!” Ni che Maliamu ŵagalawiche panyuma, ni kwasalila Mchiebulania, “Laboni!” Malumbo gakwe “Jwakwiganya.”
"Mary!" said Jesus. She turned to Him. "Rabboni!" she cried in Hebrew: the word 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," said Jesus, "for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But take this message to my brethren: '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 of Magdala came and brought word to the disciples. "I have seen the Master," she said. And she told them that He had said these things 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!”
On that same first day of the week, when it was evening and, for fear of the Jews, the doors of the house where the disciples were, were locked, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, "Peace be to you!"
20 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, Che Yesu ŵalosisye makono gao ni luŵalati lwao. Nipele ŵakulijiganya wo ŵasengwile nnope kwawona Ambuje.
Having said this He showed them His hands and also His side; and the disciples were filled with joy at seeing the Master.
21 Che Yesu ŵaasalile sooni, “Chitendewele kukwenu! Mpela ila Atati iŵandumile une, ni uneji nguntuma ŵanyamwe.”
A second time, therefore, He said to them, "Peace be to you! As the Father sent me, I also now send you."
22 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵapepelele ni kwasalila, “Mumpochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
Having said this He breathed upon them and said, "Receive the Holy Spirit.
23 Mwalechelesyaga ŵandu sambi syao, ŵele ŵandu chalecheleswe, ni aŵala ŵangankwalechelesya, ŵele ŵandu ngalecheleswa.”
If you remit the sins of any persons, they remain remitted to them. If you bind fast the sins of any, they remain bound."
24 Che Tomasi jumo jwa ŵakulijiganya likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵala, jwakuŵilanjikwa maŵila, nganaŵa pamo ni achinjakwe paŵaiche Che Yesu.
Thomas, one of the twelve--surnamed 'the Twin' --was not among them 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 rest of the disciples told him, "We have seen the Master!" His reply was, "Unless I see in his hands the wound made by the nails and put my finger into the wound, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it."
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!”
A week later the disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them, when Jesus came--though the doors were locked--and stood in their midst, and said, "Peace be to 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 He said to Thomas, "Bring your finger here and feel my hands; bring you hand and put it into my side; and do not be ready to disbelieve but to believe."
28 Che Tomasi ŵajanjile, “Mmwe ndi Ambuje ŵangu ni mmwe ndi Akunnungu ŵangu!”
"My Lord and my God!" replied Thomas.
29 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Ana nkukulupilila ligongo muuweni? Akwete upile ŵelewo ŵakukulupilila pangamona.”
"Because you have seen me," replied Jesus, "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.
There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not recorded 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 have been recorded in order that you may believe that He is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, through believing, you may have Life through His name.
