< John 20 >

1 Now on the first [day] of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, while it was yet dark, unto the tomb, and seeth the stone taken away from the tomb.
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.
2 She runneth therefore, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.
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.”
3 Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and they went toward the tomb.
Che Petulo pamo ni jwakulijiganya jwine jula ŵajawile ku lilembe.
4 And they ran both together: and the other disciple outran Peter, and came first to the tomb;
Wose ŵanaŵaŵili ŵautwiche nambo jwakulijiganya jwine jula jwampundile che Petulo, jwaliji jwaandanda kwika ku lilembe.
5 and stooping and looking in, he seeth the linen cloths lying; yet entered he not in.
Paŵakoteme ni kulingulila, ŵasiweni nguo syeswela pe, nambo nganajinjila.
6 Simon Peter therefore also cometh, following him, and entered into the tomb; and he beholdeth the linen cloths lying,
Nipele, che Simoni Petulo nombejo ŵaiche achakuyaga, ŵajinjile mwilembe ni ŵasiweni nguo syeswela sisyaŵijilile chiilu chi Che Yesu,
7 and the napkin, that was upon his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but rolled up in a place by itself.
ni chiguo chiŵammijilile Che Yesu mu ntwe. Chiguo chila nganichiŵa pamo ni nguo syeswela sila, nambo chaliji chepinde ni chaliji pajika.
8 Then entered in therefore the other disciple also, who came first to the tomb, and he saw, and believed.
Pelepo jwakulijiganya jwine juŵalongolele kwika ku lilembe jula, nombejo ŵajinjile nkati, ni ŵaiweni ni kukulupilila.
9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
Ŵaliji nganaŵe kugamanya Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti Che Yesu akusachilwa asyuche.
10 So the disciples went away again unto their own home.
Nipele ŵakulijiganya wo ŵausile kumangwao.
11 But Mary was standing without at the tomb weeping: so, as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb;
Che Maliamu ŵajimi paasa lilembe, achililaga. Paŵalilaga, ŵakoteme achilingulilaga mwilembe mula,
12 and she beholdeth two angels in white sitting, one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
ni ŵaweni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaŵili ŵaŵawasile iwalo yeswela, atemi paŵachigoneche chiilu chi Che Yesu pala jumo kuntwe ni jwine ku makongolo.
13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.
Ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani wo ŵambusisye, “Amao, nkulila ichichi?” Ni ŵajanjile, “Achikopwesye chiilu cha Ambuje ŵangu, ni sooni ngangukumanyilila kwapi achiŵisile!”
14 When she had thus said, she turned herself back, and beholdeth Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
Nipele che Maliamu paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, ŵagalawiche panyuma ni kwaona Che Yesu ali ajimi pelepo, nambo nganaimanyilila kuti jwelejo ali Che Yesu.
15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou hast borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
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.”
16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turneth herself, and saith unto him in Hebrew, Rabboni; which is to say, Teacher.
Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Che Maliamu!” Ni che Maliamu ŵagalawiche panyuma, ni kwasalila Mchiebulania, “Laboni!” Malumbo gakwe “Jwakwiganya.”
17 Jesus saith to her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended unto the Father: but go unto my brethren, and say to them, I ascend unto my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.
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.”
18 Mary Magdalene cometh and telleth the disciples, I have seen the Lord; and [that] he had said these things unto her.
Nipele che Maliamu jwa ku Magidala ŵajawile kukwasalila ŵakulijiganya kuti, ŵaweni Ambuje ni ŵaasalile achila chiŵasalilwe ni Che Yesu.
19 When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first [day] of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.
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!”
20 And when he had said this, he showed unto them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord.
Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, Che Yesu ŵalosisye makono gao ni luŵalati lwao. Nipele ŵakulijiganya wo ŵasengwile nnope kwawona Ambuje.
21 Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace [be] unto you: as the Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
Che Yesu ŵaasalile sooni, “Chitendewele kukwenu! Mpela ila Atati iŵandumile une, ni uneji nguntuma ŵanyamwe.”
22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Spirit:
Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵapepelele ni kwasalila, “Mumpochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
23 whose soever sins ye forgive, they are forgiven unto them; whose soever [sins] ye retain, they are retained.
Mwalechelesyaga ŵandu sambi syao, ŵele ŵandu chalecheleswe, ni aŵala ŵangankwalechelesya, ŵele ŵandu ngalecheleswa.”
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
Che Tomasi jumo jwa ŵakulijiganya likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵala, jwakuŵilanjikwa maŵila, nganaŵa pamo ni achinjakwe paŵaiche Che Yesu.
25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.
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.”
26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them. Jesus cometh, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace [be] unto you.
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!”
27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and see my hands; and reach [hither] thy hand, and put it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.
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!”
28 Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
Che Tomasi ŵajanjile, “Mmwe ndi Ambuje ŵangu ni mmwe ndi Akunnungu ŵangu!”
29 Jesus saith unto him, Because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed [are] they that have not seen, and [yet] have believed.
Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Ana nkukulupilila ligongo muuweni? Akwete upile ŵelewo ŵakukulupilila pangamona.”
30 Many other signs therefore did Jesus in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book:
Che Yesu ŵapanganyisye imanyisyo ine yejinji paŵaliji ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao yanganiilembekwe mchitabu chi.
31 but these are written, that ye may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye may have life in his name.
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.
