John 4
1 Now when it was clear to the Lord that word had come to the ears of the Pharisees that Jesus was making more disciples than John and was giving them baptism
Jesu ing Johan anglakawh hubat khawzah khqoet hu nawh baptisma awm khawzah pehy tice Farasikhqi ing za uhy,
2 (Though, in fact, it was his disciples who gave baptism, not Jesus himself),
Jesu amah ingtaw baptisma ce am pehy, a hubatkhqi ing ni ami peek hy.
3 He went out of Judaea into Galilee again.
Bawipa ing ce ce a sim awh, Judah ce cehta nawh Kalili na cet tlaih hy.
4 And it was necessary for him to go through Samaria.
Cawh Samari qam awhkawng ceh aham ce awm hy.
5 So he came to a town of Samaria which was named Sychar, near to the bit of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph:
Cedawngawh Jakob ing a capa Joseph a venawh a peek lo a venawh ak awm, Sikar ak mingnaak Samari khaw ce pha hy.
6 Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.
Cawh Jakob ing tui ak cawh tuikuk awm hy, lam a cehnaak awh ce hoet nawh, Jesu taw cawhkaw tuikuk a venawh ce ngawi hy. Khawnoek kquk tluk law hawh hy.
7 A woman of Samaria came to get water, and Jesus said to her, Give me some water.
Cawh Samari nu pynoet ce tui ak than na law hy, Jesu ing a venawh, “Tui awk ahamni pe lah,” tina hy.
8 For his disciples had gone to the town to get food.
A hubatkhqi taw buh ak thlai aham khawk khuina cet hawh uhy.
9 The woman of Samaria said to him, Why do you, a Jew, make a request for water to me, a woman of Samaria? She said this because Jews have nothing to do with the people of Samaria.
Samari nu ing a venawh, “Nang taw Juda thlang, kai ve Samari nu ni. Ikawmyihna tui awk aham kai a venna na thoeh law?” tina hy. (Judakhqi ing Samarikhqi ve am pawlneng qu khawi uhy.)
10 In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water.
Jesu ing a venawh, “Khawsa a kutdo ce sim nawh na venawh tui ak thoeh lawkung ve na sim mantaw, nang ing thoeh kawm tiksaw anih ing hqingnaak tui ce ni pe hlai voei,” tina hy.
11 The woman said to him, Sir, you have no vessel and the fountain is deep; from where will you get the living water?
Cawh cawhkaw nu ing, “Bawipa, cawhtaw tui awm na than aham am ngoe voel hy, tuikuk awm dung soeih hy. Cawhkaw hqingnaak tui ce hana kaw nu na huh thai kaw?
12 Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us the fountain and took the water of it himself, with his children and his cattle?
Nang ve kaimih a pa Jocob anglakawh na bau khqoet nawh nu? Anih ing vawhkaw tuikuk ve kaimih a venawh ni ceh pe taak khqi hy, amah ingawm ve a tui ve a na aw hy, a canaakhqi ingkaw ak khqin a taakkhqi ingawm a na aw uhy,” tina hy.
13 Jesus said to her, Everyone who takes this water will be in need of it again:
Jesu ing a venawh, “U awm vawhkaw tui ak awkhqi boeih taw tui ngaih tlaih kaw,
15 The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be in need again of drink and will not have to come all this way for it.
Nu ing a venawh, “Bawipa, tui am ka ngaihnaak voel aham cawhkaw tui ce ni pe lah, vawhkaw tui awm am ka thannaak voel aham,” tina hy.
16 Jesus said to her, Go, get your husband and come back here with him.
Jesu ing, “Cet nawh na vaa ce vak khy nawhtaw voei law tlaih,” tina hy.
17 In answer, the woman said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have said rightly, I have no husband:
Anih ing, “Vaa am ta nyng,” tina hy. Jesu ing a venawh, “Vaa am ta nyng, na ti ce thym hy.
18 You have had five husbands, and the man you have now is not your husband: that was truly said.
Cehlai vaa pumha ta hawh hyk ti, tuhkaw pa na taak ce awm na vaa amni. Tuhkaw nak kqawn ce thym hy,” tina hy.
19 The woman said to him, Sir, I see that you are a prophet.
Nu ing, “Bawipa, nang ve tawngha ni tice ni sim nyng.
20 Our fathers gave worship on this mountain, but you Jews say that the right place for worship is in Jerusalem.
Ka pakhqi ing ve a tlang awh Khawsa ana beek uhy, cehlai nangmih Judakhqi ingtaw Jerusalem awh ni Khawsa beek aham a awm hy, ti uhyk ti,” tina hy.
21 Jesus said to her, Woman, take my word for this; the time is coming when you will not give worship to the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.
Jesu ing, “Nang nu, nik cangna lah, ve tlang ingkaw Jerusalem kqawn kaana, Pa bawknaak a tym ce law hawh kaw.
22 You give worship, but without knowledge of what you are worshipping: we give worship to what we have knowledge of: for salvation comes from the Jews.
Nangmih Samari thlangkhqi ing am nami sim ce bawk uhyk ti; cehlai thaawngnaak ce Judakhqi venawh kawng a law dawngawh, kaimih ingtaw ka mi sim ce bawk unyng.
23 But the time is coming, and is even now here, when the true worshippers will give worship to the Father in the true way of the spirit, for these are the worshippers desired by the Father.
Cehlai Khawsa ak bawkkhqi ing Pa ce Myihla ingkaw awitak ing bawknaak a tym ce law kaw, tuh awm law hawh hy, cemyihna Khawsa ak bawk thlangkhqi ce Pa ing sui hy.
24 God is Spirit: then let his worshippers give him worship in the true way of the spirit.
Khawsa taw Myihla na a awm dawngawh amah ak beek thlangkhqi ing Myihla ingkaw awitak ing a beek aham awm hy,” tina hy.
25 The woman said to him, I am certain that the Messiah, who is named Christ, is coming; when he comes he will make all things clear to us.
Nu ing, “Messiah law kaw tice sim nyng. Anih a law awh, ik-oeih boeih boeih ce kqawn caih law kaw,” tina hy.
26 Jesus said to her, I, who am talking to you, am he.
Cawh Jesu ing, “Nang a venawh awi ak kqawn kai ve anih hawh ni,” tina hy.
27 At that point the disciples came back, and they were surprised to see him talking to a woman; but not one of them said to him, What is your purpose? or, Why are you talking to her?
Cekcoengawh a hubatkhqi ce voei law tlaih uhy, nu ing awi anik kqawn ce ami huh awh amik kawpoek kyi hy. Cehlai u ingawm “Kaw na ngaih? Ikawtih aw nu ingqawi awi na nik kqawn?” tinawh am doet uhy.
28 Then the woman put down her water-pot and went into the town, and said to the people,
Cawhkaw nu ing a tuium ce cehta nawh khawk khuina ang dawng coengawh thlangkhqi venawh,
29 Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?
“Law unawh taw, ka them sai boeih boeih ak kqawn lawkung thlang ce toek law lah uh. Khrih hy leek nu?” tinak khqi hy.
30 So they went out of the town and came to him.
Thlangkhqi ce khawk khui awhkawng law unawh anih ce ak toek na cet uhy.
31 While this was taking place, the disciples were saying to Jesus, Master, take some food.
Cawh a hubatkhqi ing, “Cawngpyikung, buh ai cang thoeih ti,” tina uhy.
32 But he said to them, I have food of which you have no knowledge.
Cehlai a mingmih a venawh, “Nangmih ing am nami sim ai kawi buh ta nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
33 So the disciples said one to another, Did anyone give him food?
A hubatkhqi ing, “Thlang pynoet oet ing ai kawi haw law pe nawh hy voei nu?” ti uhy.
34 Jesus said, My food is to do the pleasure of him who sent me and to make his work complete.
Jesu ing, “Anik tyikung ak kawngaih sai aham ingkaw a bibi coeng peek aham ve ka buh ni.
35 You would say, Four months from now is the time of the grain-cutting. Take a look, I say to you, at the fields; they are even now white for cutting.
Hlak phli coeng awhtaw caang ah khoek hawh kaw, ti uhyk ti ka ti my? Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, nami mik dai unawh lokhqi ce toek lah uh! Caang hin nawh ah aham khoek hawh hy.
36 He who does the cutting now has his reward; he is getting together fruit for eternal life, so that he who did the planting and he who gets in the grain may have joy together. (aiōnios g166)
Tuh za caang ak aatkung ing thaphu hu hawh hy, caang ak sawkung ingkaw caang ak aatkung ce ani zeelnaak thai aham, kumqui hqingnaak aham caang ce tuh aat hawh hy. (aiōnios g166)
37 In this the saying is a true one, One does the planting, and another gets in the grain.
Thlang pynoet ing saw nawh, pynoet ing aat hy,’ tinaak awi ve thym hy.
38 I sent you to get in grain which you had no hand in planting: other men did that work, and you take the reward.
Nangmih ing am nami bi lo khuiawh cang ah ahamni tyi khqi nyng. Thlak chang ing bibi ak kyi ce ana bi hawh uhy, nangmih ing a mingmih a bibinaak ce aat uhyk ti,” tinak khqi hy.
39 Now a number of the people of that town had faith in him because of the woman's witness: He has been talking to me of everything I ever did.
Cawhkaw nu ing, “Ka ik-oeih sai boeih kqawn law hy,” tinawh a simpyinaak awh ce a khawk khui awhkaw Samari thlang khawzah ing cangna uhy.
40 So when the people came to him they made request to him to be among them for a time, and he was there two days.
Samari thlangkhqi ce a ven ami pha law awh, a mingmih a venawh awm aham thoeh uhy, cedawngawh khaw hih voei a mingmih ce awm pyi hy.
41 And a great number more of them came to have faith in him because of what he himself said.
Ak awih kqawn awh thlang khawzah ngai ing cangna uhy.
42 And they said to the woman, Now we have faith, but not because of your story: we ourselves have given ear to his words, and we are certain that he is truly the Saviour of the world.
Cekkhqi ing cawhkaw nu a venawh, “Nang ing nak kqawn awh ap cangna unyng saw; ka mimah qoe qoe ing za unawh ve ak thlang ve khawmdek thaawngkung ni tice ka sim dawgawh, cangna hawh unyng,” tina uhy.
43 And after the two days he went on from there into Galilee.
Khaw hihvoei a awm coengawh Kalili na cet hy.
44 For Jesus himself said that a prophet has no honour in the country of his birth.
Tawngha a u awm amah a ram awh zoeksang na am awm khawi hy, tinawh Jesu amah qoe ing ak kqawn hawh dawngawh.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans took him to their hearts because of the things which they had seen him do in Jerusalem at the feast — they themselves having been there at the feast.
Kalili ce a pha awh, Kalili thlangkhqi ing do uhy. Jerusalem khaw awh cehtaak poei awhkaw a them saikhqi boeih ce ami huh dawngawh, cawh cekkhqi ce cawh awm lawt uhy.
46 So he came to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And there was a certain man of high position whose son was ill at Capernaum.
Cekcoengawh tui misur na ang coeng saknaak Kalili ram awhkaw Kana khaw na cet tlaih hy. Cawh Kapernaum khaw awh a capa ak tlo qalboei pynoet ce cawh awm hy.
47 When it came to his ears that Jesus had come from Judaea into Galilee, he went to him and made a request that he would come down to his son, who was near to death, and make him well.
Cawhkaw boei ing Judah ram awhkawng Kalili ram na Jesu law hy tice ang zaak awh, a venna law nawh ak thi tawm a capa ce qoei sak aham qeennaak thoeh hy.
48 Then Jesus said to him, You will not have faith if you do not see signs and wonders.
Jesu ing a venawh, “Nangmih ing kawpoek kyi ik-oeih ingkaw hatnaakkhqi am nami huh awhtaw ityk awh awm ap cangna hly uhyk ti,” tina hy.
49 The man said, Sir, come down before my boy is dead.
Cawhkaw boei ing, “Bawipa, ka capa a thih hlanawh law cang lah,” tina hy.
50 And Jesus said, Go in peace; your son is living. The man had faith in the word which Jesus said to him and went away.
Jesu ing, “Cet hlah, na capa ce qoei hawh hy,” tina hy. Jesu ak awi ce cangna nawh cet hy.
51 And while he was going down, his servants came to him and said, Your boy is living.
Lam awh a ceh awh, a tyihzawihkhqi ing a capa ce leek tlaih hawh hy ti awithang leek ing ana do law uhy.
52 So he put a question to them as to the hour when he became better; and they said to him, The disease went from him yesterday at the seventh hour.
Han a tym awh nu a capa a leek tlaih tice a doet awh, a venawh, “Zan awh khawnoek khqih awh a tlawhnaak ing hlah law hy,” tina uhy.
53 It was clear then to the father that this was the very time at which Jesus said to him, Your son is living. And he had faith in Jesus, he and all his family.
Ce a tym ce Jesu ing a venawh, “Na capa ce qoei hawh hy,” a tinak a tym na awm hy tice a pa ing sim hy. Cedawngawh amah ingkaw a ipkhuikaw boeih ing cangna uhy.
54 Now this is the second sign which Jesus did after he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.
Vawhkaw kawpoek kyi hatnaak ik-oeih ve Jesu ing Judah qam awhkawng Kalili qam na a law coengawh a sai hih voeinaak na awm hy.
