John 4
1 When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus makes and baptises more disciples than John
Yesu ayokaki ete Bafarizeo bazwi sango oyo ezali koloba ete akomi na bayekoli ebele koleka Yoane mpe azali kobatisa bato mingi koleka Yoane.
2 (however, Jesus himself did not baptise, but his disciples),
(Nzokande, Yesu Ye moko azalaki kobatisa te, kasi ezalaki nde bayekoli na Ye.)
3 he left Judaea and went away again unto Galilee.
Boye, alongwaki na Yuda mpe azongaki na Galile.
4 And he must needs pass through Samaria.
Lokola asengelaki kolekela na Samari,
5 He comes therefore to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near to the land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
akomaki na engumba Sishari ya Samari, oyo ezalaki mosika te na elanga oyo Jakobi apesaki epai ya mwana na ye, Jozefi.
6 Now a fountain of Jacob's was there; Jesus therefore, being wearied with the way he had come, sat just as he was at the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.
Nzokande libulu ya mayi ya Jakobi ezalaki kati na elanga yango. Boye lokola Yesu alembaki nzoto mpo na mobembo, avandaki pembeni ya libulu yango. Ezalaki pene ya ngonga ya midi.
7 A woman comes out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus says to her, Give me to drink
Tango mwasi moko ya engumba Samari akendeki kotoka mayi, Yesu alobaki na ye: — Pesa Ngai mayi mpo ete namela.
8 (for his disciples had gone away into the city that they might buy provisions).
(Bayekoli ya Yesu bakendeki na engumba mpo na kosomba biloko ya kolia).
9 The Samaritan woman therefore says to him, How dost thou, being a Jew, ask to drink of me who am a Samaritan woman? for Jews have no intercourse with Samaritans.
Kasi mwasi yango alobaki: — Ebandi ndenge nini yo oyo ozali Moyuda osenga ngai, mwasi ya engumba Samari, mayi mpo ete omela? —Pamba te Bayuda bazalaki koyokana te na bato ya Samari.—
10 Jesus answered and said to her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that says to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Soki oyebaki likabo ya Nzambe mpe nani oyo asengi yo mayi, ezali yo nde olingaki kosenga Ye mayi mpo ete omela, mpe Ye alingaki kopesa yo mayi ya bomoi.
11 The woman says to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou the living water?
Mwasi alobaki na Yesu: — Nkolo, ozali na eloko moko te mpo na kotoka mayi, mpe libulu ezali mozindo; bongo mayi yango ya bomoi, olingaki kozwa yango wapi?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
Koko na biso, Jakobi, apesa biso libulu oyo; ye moko mpe amela mayi na yango, elongo na bana na ye mpe bibwele na ye. Boni, okanisi ete oleki ye?
13 Jesus answered and said to her, Every one who drinks of this water shall thirst again;
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Moto nyonso oyo amelaka mayi oyo, ayokaka lisusu posa ya mayi;
15 The woman says to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst nor come here to draw.
Mwasi yango alobaki na Yesu: — Nkolo, pesa ngai mayi yango mpo ete nayokaka lisusu posa ya mayi te mpe nazonga lisusu awa te mpo na kotoka mayi.
16 Jesus says to her, Go, call thy husband, and come here.
Yesu alobaki na ye: — Kende, benga mobali na yo mpe zonga awa.
17 The woman answered and said, I have not a husband. Jesus says to her, Thou hast well said, I have not a husband;
Mwasi azongisaki: — Nazali na mobali te. Yesu alobaki na ye: — Ozali koloba penza ya solo ete ozali na mobali te,
18 for thou hast had five husbands, and he whom now thou hast is not thy husband: this thou hast spoken truly.
pamba te ozalaki na mibali mitano; mpe ye oyo ozali na ye sik’oyo azali mpe mobali na yo te. Boye likambo oyo owuti koloba ezali ya solo.
19 The woman says to him, Sir, I see that thou art a prophet.
Mwasi yango alobaki na Yesu: — Nkolo, namoni ete ozali mosakoli.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain, and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where one must worship.
Bakoko na biso, bato ya Samari, bagumbamelaki Nzambe na likolo ya ngomba oyo; kasi bino, Bayuda, bolobaka ete esika epai wapi tosengeli kogumbamela ezali kati na Yelusalemi.
21 Jesus says to her, Woman, believe me, [the] hour is coming when ye shall neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem worship the Father.
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Mwasi, ndima Ngai: tango ezali koya, tango oyo bakogumbamela lisusu Tata te na likolo ya ngomba oyo to kati na Yelusalemi.
22 Ye worship ye know not what; we worship what we know, for salvation is of the Jews.
Bino, bato ya Samari, bogumbamelaka nzambe oyo boyebi te; kasi biso, togumbamelaka Nzambe oyo toyebi, pamba te lobiko ewuti epai ya Bayuda.
23 But [the] hour is coming and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for also the Father seeks such as his worshippers.
Kasi tango ezali koya mpe esili na yango kokoka, tango oyo bagumbameli ya solo bokogumbamela Tata, kati na Molimo mpe kati na solo; pamba te Tata alukaka bato oyo bogumbamelaka Ye na lolenge wana.
24 God [is] a spirit; and they who worship him must worship [him] in spirit and truth.
Nzambe azali Molimo; esengeli ete bato oyo bagumbamelaka Ye bagumbamela Ye kati na Molimo mpe kati na solo.
25 The woman says to him, I know that Messias is coming, who is called Christ; when he comes he will tell us all things.
Mwasi alobaki na Yesu: — Nayebi ete Masiya azali koya, Ye oyo babengaka Klisto; mpe tango akoya, akoyebisa biso makambo nyonso.
26 Jesus says to her, I who speak to thee am [he].
Yesu alobaki na ye: — Nazali Masiya, Ngai oyo nazali koloba na yo.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and wondered that he spoke with a woman; yet no one said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?
Kaka na tango yango, bayekoli ya Yesu bazongaki. Bakamwaki mingi komona Yesu kosolola na mwasi. Kasi moko te kati na bango amekaki kotuna Ye: « Ozali koluka nini? » to « Mpo na nini ozali kosolola na ye? »
28 The woman then left her waterpot and went away into the city, and says to the men,
Bongo mwasi atikaki mbeki na ye wana, azongaki na engumba mpe alobaki na bato:
29 Come, see a man who told me all things I had ever done: is not he the Christ?
— Boya kotala moto oyo ayebisi ngai makambo nyonso oyo nasalaki. Akoki kozala Klisto te?
30 They went out of the city and came to him.
Bato babimaki longwa na engumba mpe bakendeki epai ya Yesu.
31 But meanwhile the disciples asked him saying, Rabbi, eat.
Na tango yango, bayekoli bazalaki kosenga na Yesu: — Rabi, lia.
32 But he said to them, I have food to eat which ye do not know.
Kasi Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Ngai, nakolia bilei oyo bino boyebi te.
33 The disciples therefore said to one another, Has any one brought him [anything] to eat?
Bongo bayekoli na Ye balobanaki bango na bango: — Boni, ekoki kozala na moto oyo amemelaki Ye bilei?
34 Jesus says to them, My food is that I should do the will of him that has sent me, and that I should finish his work.
Yesu alobaki na bango: — Bilei na Ngai ezali: kosala mokano ya Ye oyo atindaki Ngai mpe kosilisa mosala oyo apesaki Ngai.
35 Do not ye say, that there are yet four months and the harvest comes? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and behold the fields, for they are already white to harvest.
Bino bolobaka: « Etikali sanza minei mpo ete tobuka mbuma kati na bilanga. » Kasi Ngai, nazali koloba na bino: bofungola miso na bino mpe botala malamu bilanga; bambuma ekomeli mpe ekoki mpo na kobuka.
36 He that reaps receives wages and gathers fruit unto life eternal, that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
Moto oyo azali kobuka azali komizwela lifuti mpe kosangisa bambuma mpo na bomoi ya seko. Boye, moloni mpe mobuki mbuma bazali kosepela elongo, bango mibale. (aiōnios g166)
37 For in this is [verified] the true saying, It is one who sows and another who reaps.
Awa nde ekokisami bosolo ya lisese oyo elobaka: « Moko alonaka, mosusu abukaka. »
38 I have sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured; others have laboured, and ye have entered into their labours.
Natindaki bino kobuka bambuma ya elanga oyo bino bolonaki te; ezali bato mosusu nde basalaki mosala, mpe bino bozali bobele kosepela na motoki ya bato mosusu.
39 But many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him because of the word of the woman who bore witness, He told me all things that I had ever done.
Bato mingi ya Samari, oyo bazalaki kovanda kati na engumba wana bandimelaki Yesu mpo na litatoli oyo mwasi azalaki kopesa: « Ayebisi ngai makambo nyonso oyo nasalaki. »
40 When therefore the Samaritans came to him they asked him to abide with them, and he abode there two days.
Tango bato ya Samari bayaki epai ya Yesu, basengaki na Ye ete avanda elongo na bango; mpe Yesu avandaki elongo na bango mikolo mibale.
41 And more a great deal believed on account of his word;
Bato ebele koleka bakomaki kondimela Ye mpo na maloba oyo Ye moko azalaki koloba.
42 and they said to the woman, [It is] no longer on account of thy saying that we believe, for we have heard him ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.
Bongo balobaki na mwasi wana: — Tondimi kaka te mpo na makambo oyo olobaki, pamba te biso moko toyoki sik’oyo mpe toyebi ete azali penza Mobikisi ya mokili.
43 But after the two days he went forth thence and went away into Galilee,
Sima na mikolo mibale, Yesu alongwaki wana mpe akendeki na Galile.
44 for Jesus himself bore witness that a prophet has no honour in his own country.
Solo, Ye moko Yesu alobaki ete mosakoli azwaka lokumu te kati na ekolo na ye.
45 When therefore he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem during the feast, for they also went to the feast.
Tango akomaki na Galile, bato ya Galile bayambaki Ye, pamba te bango mpe bakendeki na Yelusalemi, na tango ya feti, mpe bamonaki makambo nyonso oyo asalaki kuna.
46 He came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain courtier in Capernaum whose son was sick.
Yesu ayaki lisusu na Kana ya Galile, epai wapi abongolaki mayi vino. Nzokande, na Kapernawumi, ezalaki na mokonzi moko ya basoda oyo mwana na ye ya mobali azalaki kobela.
47 He, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to him and asked [him] that he would come down and heal his son, for he was about to die.
Tango ayokaki ete Yesu akomi na Galile longwa na Yuda, akendeki kokutana na Ye mpe asengaki na Ye ete akende kobikisa mwana na ye ya mobali oyo akomi pene ya kokufa.
48 Jesus therefore said to him, Unless ye see signs and wonders ye will not believe.
Yesu alobaki na ye: — Boni, bokondima kaka soki bomoni bilembo mpe bikamwa?
49 The courtier says to him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
Mokonzi wana ya basoda alobaki: — Nkolo na ngai, yaka noki liboso ete mwana na ngai ya mobali akufa.
50 Jesus says to him, Go, thy son lives. And the man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went his way.
Yesu alobaki na ye: — Kende, mwana na yo ya mobali azali na bomoi. Moto yango andimaki maloba oyo Yesu alobaki mpe azongaki.
51 But already, as he was going down, his servants met him and brought [him] word saying, Thy child lives.
Wana azalaki kozonga, basali na ye bayaki kokutana na ye mpe bayebisaki ye: — Mwana na yo ya mobali abiki na bokono na ye.
52 He inquired therefore from them the hour at which he got better. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
Atunaki bango soki ezalaki na ngonga nini mwana abikaki. Bazongisaki: — Fievele etikaki ye lobi oyo eleki, na ngonga ya liboso sima na midi.
53 The father therefore knew that [it was] in that hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son lives; and he believed, himself and his whole house.
Tata asosolaki ete ezalaki kaka na ngonga oyo Yesu alobaki na ye: « Mwana na yo ya mobali azali na bomoi. » Bongo ye elongo na bato nyonso ya ndako na ye bandimaki.
54 This second sign again did Jesus, being come out of Judaea into Galilee.
Oyo nde ezalaki likamwisi ya mibale oyo Yesu asalaki sima na Ye kozonga na Galile longwa na Yuda.
