Yohana 6
1 Payamasile yeleyo Che Yesu ŵajombweche litanda lya Galilaya pane likuŵilanjikwa litanda lya Tibelia.
After this, Jesus crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias).
2 Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wakuiye ligongo ŵandu wo ŵaiweni imanyisyo iŵapanganyisye kwa kwalamya ŵandu.
A large crowd followed Him because they saw the signs He was performing on the sick.
3 Nipele Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵakwesile mwitumbi ni kutama.
Then Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples.
4 Katema ka chindimba cha Pasaka ja Ŵayahudi kaŵandichile.
Now the Jewish Feast of the Passover was near.
5 Che Yesu paŵalolesyelolesye ŵauweni mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu uchaichililaga, nipele ŵausisye che Filipo, “Ana chitusume kwapi chakulya kuti twape ŵandu ŵa alye?”
When Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”
6 Ŵaŵechete yeleyo kuti ŵalinje che Filipo, pakuŵa asyene ŵaimanyi chichaapanganye.
But He was asking this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do.
7 Che Filipo ŵajanjile, “Ipande machila gaŵili ga madini ga feza ngaikukwana kusumila mikate kwa kila mundu!”
Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a small piece.”
8 Jumo jwa ŵakulijiganya ŵa Che Yesu jwakuŵilanjikwa che Andulea, mpwao che Simoni Petulo, ŵaasalile Che Yesu,
One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him,
9 “Kwana jwanchanda pelepa jwali ni ipande nsano ya mikate ja shayili ni somba siŵili. Nambo yakulya yi kanandi ngayajikutisya ŵandu ŵajinji ŵanti nyi?”
“Here is a boy with five barley loaves and two small fish. But what difference will these make among so many?”
10 Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Mwasalile ŵandu atame paasi.” Pelepo paliji ni manyasi, nipele ŵandu wose ŵatemi paasi, winji wa achalume pe waliji mpela elufu tano.
“Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the men sat down, about five thousand of them.
11 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaijigele ipande ya mikate ila, ni ŵatogolele Akunnungu ni kwagaŵila ŵandu ŵaŵatemi paasi ŵala. Ŵatesile iyoyo peyo ni somba sila ni kila mundu ŵapatile mpela iŵatite pakusaka.
Then Jesus took the loaves and the fish, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted.
12 Ŵandu wo paŵajikwite Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Nkumbikanye mbakatika yaisigele yo kuti inapotele.”
And when everyone was full, He said to His disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over, so that nothing will be wasted.”
13 Nipele, ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵakumbikenye isigasi ya mikate nsano ja shayili iyasigesye ŵandu ŵaŵalile ŵala, ŵagumbesye itundu likumi ni iŵili.
So they collected them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.
14 Ŵandu paŵachiweni chimanyisyo chiŵachipanganyisye Che Yesu cho, ŵatite, “Isyene ajuju ni jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu jwaŵechetekwe kuti chaiche pachilambo.”
When the people saw the sign that Jesus had performed, they began to say, “Truly this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
15 Che Yesu ŵaimanyi kuti ŵandu ŵasachile kwakanganichisya aŵe mwenye jwao, ni ŵatyosile sooni jikape ni kwaula ku chitumbi.
Then Jesus, realizing that they were about to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself.
16 Pakwaswele ŵakulijiganya ŵa Che Yesu ŵatulwiche kwaula ku litanda.
When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
17 Ŵajinjile mu ngalaŵa ŵatandite komboka kwaula ku Kapelenaumu. Chipi chajinjile ni Che Yesu ŵaliji akanaŵe kwaichilila.
got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them.
18 Litanda lyatandite matumbela kwa ligongo lya chimbunga chekulungwa chichaliji chininkupuga.
A strong wind was blowing, and the sea grew agitated.
19 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao paŵajawile kwakutalichila uleu wa maili sitatu pane ncheche, ŵammweni Che Yesu alinkwenda pachanya meesi, ni kujiŵandichila ngalaŵa, ŵajogwepe nnope.
When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the sea—and they were terrified.
20 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nkajogopa, ndili uneji!”
But Jesus spoke up: “It is I; do not be afraid.”
21 Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵala kwakusangalala ŵammendile Che Yesu ajinjile mu ngalaŵa mula. Palapala ngalaŵa jaiche mungulugulu litanda kuŵajaulaga.
Then they were willing to take Him into the boat, and at once the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
22 Malaŵi jakwe mpingo wa ŵandu uŵasigele peesi litanda ula ŵaimanyi kuti apala paliji ni ngalaŵa jimo pe. Che Yesu nganajinjila mu ngalaŵa pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao, nambo ŵakulijiganya ŵao wo ŵajawile achinsyene pe.
The next day, the crowd that had remained on the other side of the sea realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded it with His disciples, but they had gone away alone.
23 Syaiche ngalaŵa sine kutyochela ku Tibelia pepala mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu paŵalile mikate, Ambuje ali amasile kwatogolela Akunnungu.
However, some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
24 Nipele, ŵandu wo paŵaimanyi kuti Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao nganapagwa pepala, ŵasikwesile ngalaŵa sila ni kwaula ku Kapelenaumu achinsosaga.
So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum to look for Him.
25 Ŵandu ŵala paŵasimene Che Yesu ali ajombweche ŵambusisye, “Ana, Jwakwiganya akuno nnyiche katema chi?”
When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they asked Him, “Rabbi, when did You get here?”
26 Che Yesu ŵaajanjile, “Ngunsalila isyene, nkusosasosa une ngaŵa kwaligongo mwaiweni imanyisyo imbanganyisye, nambo kwaligongo mwalile mikate jila ni kwikuta.
Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is not because you saw these signs that you are looking for Me, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill.
27 Kasinchenjeuchila chakulya chachikuwola, nambo nchenjeuchile chakulya chingachikuwola cha umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Mwana jwa Mundu champe chakulya chi pakuŵa Akunnungu Atati, alosisye kuti ansagwile ni kunkunda.” (aiōnios g166)
Do not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on Him God the Father has placed His seal of approval.” (aiōnios g166)
28 Nombewo ŵambusisye Che Yesu, “Tutende chichi kuti tukombole kugapanganya masengo gakugasakaga Akunnungu tugapanganye?”
Then they inquired, “What must we do to perform the works of God?”
29 Che Yesu ŵaajanjile, “Chelechi ni chakuchisaka Akunnungu nchipanganye, munkulupilile jwantumile jula.”
Jesus replied, “The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent.”
30 Pelepo ŵaasalile, “Ana chintende chimanyisyo chi tulole kuti tunkulupilile mmwe? Chintende chichi?
So they asked Him, “What sign then will You perform, so that we may see it and believe You? What will You do?
31 Achambuje ŵetu ŵalile chakulya chachikuŵilanjikwa mana mwipululu mula mpela igakuti pakusala Malembelo ga Akunnungu, ‘Ŵalisisye mikate jajityochele kwinani.’”
Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’”
32 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngunsalila isyene, che Musa nganampanga nkate kutyochela kwinani, nambo Atati ŵangu ni ŵampele ŵanyamwe nkate usyene kutyochela kwinani.
Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.
33 Pakuŵa nkate wakutupa Akunnungu uli ajula jwatulwiche kutyochela kwinani ni kwapa umi ŵandu ŵaali mchilambo.”
For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”
34 Nipele ŵaasalile, “Ambuje, ntupeje nkate wu kila lyuŵa.”
“Sir,” they said, “give us this bread at all times.”
35 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Uneji ndili nkate waukwikanawo umi. Jwakwika kukwangu ngasijinkola sala, jwakungulupilila une ngasijinkola njota ng'oo.
Jesus answered, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst.
36 Nambo nansalile kuti namuno muuweni, nganimme kungulupilila.
But as I stated, you have seen Me and still you do not believe.
37 Wose ŵakuumba Atati chaiche kukwangu, noneji jwalijose jwakwika kukwangu ngasinankana ng'oo.
Everyone the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will never drive away.
38 Nganinduluka kutyochela kwinani kwaligongo lya kuitendekanya ingusaka uneji, nambo ndulwiche kuti ndendekanye yakusaka ŵandumile une ŵala.
For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me.
39 Yakusaka ŵandumile une ŵala ni ayiyi, ninanjase jwalijose juŵambele, nambo naasyusye pa lyuŵa lya mbesi.
And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.
40 Pakuŵa chakusaka Atati ŵangu ni achichi, jwalijose jwakunlola Mwana ni kunkulupilila akole umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, ni uneji chinansyusye pa lyuŵa lya mbesi.” (aiōnios g166)
For it is My Father’s will that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.” (aiōnios g166)
41 Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵatandite kwasongonechela Che Yesu pakuŵa ŵatite, “Uneji ndili nkate wautulwiche kutyochela kwinani.”
At this, the Jews began to grumble about Jesus because He had said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”
42 Ni ŵatite, “Uli, ajuju ngaŵa Che Yesu mwana ju che Yusufu jula? Atatigwe ni achikulugwe twamanyi! Ana akukombola chinauli kuti atulwiche kutyochela kwinani?”
They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have come down from heaven?’”
43 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nneche kusongonechelana jwine ni jwine.
“Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus replied.
44 Ngapagwa mundu juchakombole kwika kukwangu pangali Atati juŵandumile une jo kwautila kukwangu, ni une chinansyusye mundu jo pa lyuŵa lyambesi.
“No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.
45 Ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵalembile kuti, ‘Ŵandu wose chajiganyikwe ni Akunnungu.’ Mundu jwalijose jwakumpilikana Atati ni kulijiganya kutyochela kwa ŵelewo, chaiche kukwangu.
It is written in the Prophets: ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from Him comes to Me—
46 Ngapagwa mundu jwambweni Atati, ikaŵe ajula pe jwatyosile kwa Akunnungu, jwelejo ni juŵambweni Atati.
not that anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father.
Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
48 Uneji ndili nkate waukwikanawo umi.
I am the bread of life.
49 Achambuje ŵenu ŵalile mana mwipululu mula, nambo ŵawile.
Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.
50 Nambo weleu ni nkate waukutuluka kutyochela kwinani kuti jwalijose jwakulya anajasiche.
This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and not die.
51 Uneji ndili nkate waukwikanawo umi wautulwiche kutyochela kwinani. Mundu jwalijose alyaga nkate wo chalame moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Ni nkate uchinaape wo uli chiilu changu chinguchityosya kuti ŵandu wose ŵapachilambo akole umi.” (aiōn g165)
I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh.” (aiōn g165)
52 Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵatandite kwangangana achinsyene pe, “Ana aju akukombola chinauli kutupa uwe chiilu chakwe kuti tulye?”
At this, the Jews began to argue among themselves, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”
53 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngunsalila isyene, iŵaga ngankulya chiilu cha Mwana jwa Mundu ni kung'wa miasi jakwe, ngankola umi nkati mwenu.
So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you.
54 Mundu jwalijose jwakulya chiilu changu ni kungwa miasi jangu akwete umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, ni uneji chinansyusye pa lyuŵa lyambesi. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
55 Pakuŵa chiilu changu chili chakulya chisyenesyene, ni miasi jangu jili chakung'wa chisyenesyene.
For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink.
56 Mundu jwalijose jwakulya chiilu changu ni kung'wa miasi jangu, jwelejo akutama nkati mwangu ni uneji ngutama mwa jwelejo.
Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him.
57 Mpela ila Atati ŵaali ŵajumi iŵandumile, ni kwa ligongo lya Atati ndili ŵajumi, kwayele jwakundya une chaŵe ŵajumi kwa ligongo lyangu.
Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me.
58 Nipele, weleu uli nkate wautulwiche kutyochela kwinani, ngaŵa mpela mana jiŵalile achambuje ŵenu ni kuwa. Nambo juchalye nkate wu chakole umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi.” (aiōn g165)
This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.” (aiōn g165)
59 Che Yesu ŵaŵechete yeleyo paŵaliji nkwiganya mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana Ŵayahudi ku Kapelenaumu kula.
Jesus said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
60 Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajinji paŵapilikene yeleyo ŵatite, “Aga majiganyo ga gali gakulimba! Ana nduni juchakombole kugakunda?”
On hearing it, many of His disciples said, “This is a difficult teaching. Who can accept it?”
61 Che Yesu ŵaimanyi pangasalilwa ni mundu kuti ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaliji nkusongoneka yankati yeleyo, ni ŵausisye, “Ana majiganyo ga gakuntesya nneche kungulupilila?
Aware that His disciples were grumbling about this teaching, Jesus asked them, “Does this offend you?
62 Nambi chiiŵe uli pachimummone Mwana jwa Mundu alinkujigalikwa kwaula kwinani kuŵaliji kundanda?
Then what will happen if you see the Son of Man ascend to where He was before?
63 Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni jwakwichisya umi, machili ga mundu gangali chindu. Maloŵe ginansalile gali Mbumu nombe gali umi.
The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.
64 Natamuno yeleyo apali ŵane mwa ŵanyamwe ŵangakukulupilila.” Che Yesu ŵaŵechete yeleyo pakuŵa ŵaimanyi chitandile kundanda kuti ŵaani ŵangakulupilila ni nduni juchangalauche.
However, there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.)
65 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaŵechete sooni, “Kwa ligongo lyo nansalile kuti ngapagwa juchakombole kwika kukwangu mpaka akamuchikwe ni Atati ŵangu.”
Then Jesus said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless the Father has granted it to him.”
66 Kutyochela lyuŵa lyo ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajinji ŵalesile kulongana nawo kwaligongo lya maloŵe gala ni ŵaujile panyuma.
From that time on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him.
67 Nipele Che Yesu ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵala, “Ana, ni ŵanyamwe nombe nkusaka kwaula?”
So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?”
68 Che Simoni Petulo ŵajanjile, “Ambuje, tutujaule kwa acheni? Mmwejo nkwete maloŵe gagakwikanawo umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios g166)
Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
69 Uweji tukukulupilila ni sooni tukwimanyilila kuti mmwejo ndi Jwanswela kutyochela kwa Akunnungu.”
We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”
70 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Uli, nganinansagula ŵanyamwe likumi ni ŵaŵili? Nambo jumo jwenu ali Shetani.”
Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”
71 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaliji nkwagamba che Yuda mwana ju che Simoni Isikaliote, pakuŵa jwelejo ni juchangalauche namuno ali jumo jwa ŵakulijiganya likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵala.
He was speaking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. For although Judas was one of the Twelve, he was later to betray Jesus.
