John 4
1 AS soon then as the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptised more disciples than John
| ܝܕܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܥܒܕ ܘܡܥܡܕ ܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܝܘܚܢܢ |
2 (though Jesus himself did not baptise, but his disciples),
| ܟܕ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܘ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܥܡܕ ܗܘܐ ܐܠܐ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ |
3 he left Judea, and went again into Galilee.
| ܘܫܒܩܗ ܠܝܗܘܕ ܘܐܙܠ ܠܗ ܬܘܒ ܠܓܠܝܠܐ |
4 Now he must necessarily pass through Samaria.
| ܡܥܒܕܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܢܥܒܪ ܥܠ ܒܝܬ ܫܡܪܝܐ |
5 Then he cometh to a city of Samaria, called Sichar, near the spot of ground which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
| ܘܐܬܐ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܫܡܪܝܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܫܟܪ ܥܠ ܓܢܒ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܕܝܗܒ ܗܘܐ ܝܥܩܘܒ ܠܝܘܤܦ ܒܪܗ |
6 And Jacob’s well was there. Therefore Jesus, weary with his journey, e’en sat himself down on the well: it was about the sixth hour.
| ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܡܥܝܢܐ ܕܡܝܐ ܕܝܥܩܘܒ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܐܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܥܡܠܐ ܕܐܘܪܚܐ ܘܝܬܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܥܠ ܡܥܝܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܝ ܫܬ ܫܥܝܢ |
7 A woman of Samaria comes to draw water: Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.
| ܘܐܬܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܡܢ ܫܡܪܝܢ ܕܬܡܠܐ ܡܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܗܒ ܠܝ ܡܝܐ ܐܫܬܐ |
8 (For his disciples were gone into the city to buy provisions.)
| ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܓܝܪ ܥܠܘ ܗܘܘ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܢܙܒܢܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܤܝܒܪܬܐ |
9 The Samaritan woman therefore saith to him, How canst thou, a Jew, ask of me, who am a Samaritan woman, to drink? for Jews avoid all intercourse with Samaritans.
| ܐܡܪܐ ܠܗ ܗܝ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܫܡܪܝܬܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܐܢܬ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܢܬ ܘܡܢܝ ܫܐܠ ܐܢܬ ܠܡܫܬܐ ܕܐܝܬܝ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܫܡܪܝܬܐ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܬܚܫܚܝܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܥܡ ܫܡܪܝܐ |
10 Jesus answered and said to her, If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who he is that speaketh to thee, thou wouldest have requested him, and he would have given thee life-giving water.
| ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܠܘ ܝܕܥܐ ܗܘܝܬܝ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܡܢܘ ܗܢܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܟܝ ܗܒ ܠܝ ܐܫܬܐ ܐܢܬܝ ܫܐܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܝ ܠܗ ܘܝܗܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܟܝ ܡܝܐ ܚܝܐ |
11 The woman saith unto him, Thou hast no bucket, and the well is deep: whence then canst thou have this water that giveth life?
| ܐܡܪܐ ܠܗ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝ ܡܪܝ ܠܐ ܕܘܠܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟ ܘܒܪܐ ܥܡܝܩܐ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܠܟ ܡܝܐ ܚܝܐ |
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?
| ܠܡܐ ܐܢܬ ܪܒ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܐܒܘܢ ܝܥܩܘܒ ܗܘ ܕܗܘ ܝܗܒ ܠܢ ܒܪܐ ܗܕܐ ܘܗܘ ܡܢܗ ܐܫܬܝ ܘܒܢܘܗܝ ܘܥܢܗ |
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one who drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
| ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܟܠ ܕܢܫܬܐ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܝܐ ܬܘܒ ܢܨܗܐ |
14 but whosoever shall drink of the water which I shall give him, he shall no more thirst to eternity; but the water which I will give him, shall be in him a fountain of water springing up to life eternal. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
| ܟܠ ܕܝܢ ܕܢܫܬܐ ܡܢ ܡܝܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܬܠ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܢܨܗܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܐܠܐ ܡܝܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܗܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܒܗ ܡܥܝܢܐ ܕܡܝܐ ܕܢܒܥܝܢ ܠܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166) |
15 The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may no more thirst, nor come hither to draw.
| ܐܡܪܐ ܠܗ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝ ܡܪܝ ܗܒ ܠܝ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܝܐ ܕܠܐ ܬܘܒ ܐܨܗܐ ܘܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܐܬܝܐ ܕܠܝܐ ܡܢ ܗܪܟܐ |
16 Jesus saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܙܠܝ ܩܪܝ ܠܒܥܠܟܝ ܘܬܝ ܠܗܪܟܐ |
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou hast spoken right, that thou hast no husband:
| ܐܡܪܐ ܠܗ ܠܝܬ ܠܝ ܒܥܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܫܦܝܪ ܐܡܪܬܝ ܕܠܝܬ ܠܝ ܒܥܠܐ |
18 for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in this thou hast spoken true.
| ܚܡܫܐ ܓܝܪ ܒܥܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܟܝ ܘܗܢܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܟܝ ܗܫܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܥܠܟܝ ܗܕܐ ܫܪܝܪܬܐ ܐܡܪܬܝ |
19 The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
| ܐܡܪܐ ܠܗ ܗܝ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܡܪܝ ܚܙܝܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܐܢܬ |
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye affirm, That the place where we ought to worship is at Jerusalem.
| ܐܒܗܝܢ ܒܗܢܐ ܛܘܪܐ ܤܓܕܘ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܗܘ ܐܬܪ ܕܘܠܐ ܠܡܤܓܕ |
21 Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe me, that the hour approaches, when ye shall worship the Father neither in this mountain, nor at Jerusalem.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝܡܢܝܢܝ ܕܐܬܝܐ ܫܥܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܒܗܢܐ ܛܘܪܐ ܘܐܦ ܠܐ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܬܤܓܕܘܢ ܠܐܒܐ |
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we worship what we do know: for salvation cometh from the Jews.
| ܐܢܬܘܢ ܤܓܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܕܡ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܚܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܤܓܕܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܠܡܐ ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܕܚܝܐ ܡܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܢܘܢ |
23 But the hour is coming, yea, is now come, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such worshippers of him.
| ܐܠܐ ܐܬܝܐ ܫܥܬܐ ܘܗܫܐ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܐܡܬܝ ܕܤܓܘܕܐ ܫܪܝܪܐ ܢܤܓܕܘܢ ܠܐܒܐ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܘܒܫܪܪܐ ܐܦ ܐܒܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܝܟ ܗܠܝܢ ܗܘ ܤܓܘܕܐ ܒܥܐ |
24 God is a Spirit: and they who worship him, must worship him in spirit and in truth.
| ܪܘܚܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܤܓܕܝܢ ܠܗ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܘܒܫܪܪܐ ܘܠܐ ܕܢܤܓܕܘܢ |
25 The woman saith, I know that Messiah is coming (who is called Christ): when he cometh, he will inform us of all things.
| ܐܡܪܐ ܠܗ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝ ܝܕܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܬܐ ܘܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܗܘ ܡܠܦ ܠܢ ܟܠܡܕܡ |
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that am speaking to thee am he.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܥܡܟܝ |
27 And upon this came his disciples, and wondered that he talked with the woman: yet no one said, What art thou seeking? or, Why art thou talking with her?
| ܘܟܕ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܬܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܡܬܕܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܥܡ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܡܡܠܠ ܠܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܢܫ ܐܡܪ ܡܢܐ ܒܥܐ ܐܢܬ ܐܘ ܡܢܐ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܬ ܥܡܗ |
28 Then the woman left her pitcher, and went into the city, and said to the men,
| ܘܫܒܩܬ ܩܘܠܬܗ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܘܐܙܠܬ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܘܐܡܪܐ ܠܐܢܫܐ |
29 Come with me; behold a man, who told me all things that I ever did: is not this the Messiah?
| ܬܘ ܚܙܘ ܓܒܪܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܥܒܕܬ ܠܡܐ ܗܘܝܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ |
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
| ܘܢܦܩܘ ܐܢܫܐ ܡܢ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܘܐܬܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܘܬܗ |
31 In the mean time his disciples invited him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
| ܘܒܝܢܬ ܗܠܝܢ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܪܒܢ ܠܥܤ |
32 But he said to them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܝ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܕܐܟܘܠ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ |
33 Then said his disciples to each other, Hath any person brought him ought to eat?
| ܐܡܪܝܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܒܝܢܝܗܘܢ ܠܡܐ ܐܢܫ ܐܝܬܝ ܠܗ ܡܕܡ ܠܡܐܟܠ |
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܕܐܥܒܕ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܘܐܫܠܡܝܘܗܝ ܠܥܒܕܗ |
35 Do ye not say, That yet there are four months, and then the harvest cometh? behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and look upon the fields; for they are now white for harvest.
| ܠܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܒܬܪ ܐܪܒܥܐ ܝܪܚܝܢ ܐܬܐ ܚܨܕܐ ܗܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܪܝܡܘ ܥܝܢܝܟܘܢ ܘܚܙܘ ܐܪܥܬܐ ܕܚܘܪ ܘܡܛܝ ܠܚܨܕܐ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ |
36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
| ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܚܨܕ ܐܓܪܐ ܢܤܒ ܘܟܢܫ ܦܐܪܐ ܠܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܘܙܪܘܥܐ ܘܚܨܘܕܐ ܐܟܚܕܐ ܢܚܕܘܢ (aiōnios g166) |
37 For herein is the saying true, That one soweth and another reapeth.
| ܒܗܕܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܕܐܚܪܝܢ ܗܘ ܙܪܥ ܘܐܚܪܝܢ ܚܨܕ |
38 I have sent you to reap that on which ye have bestowed no labour: others have laboured, and ye have entered into their labour.
| ܐܢܐ ܫܕܪܬܟܘܢ ܠܡܚܨܕ ܡܕܡ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐܝܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܠܐܝܘ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܥܡܠܗܘܢ ܕܗܢܘܢ |
39 Now many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him, on the report of the woman, who said, That he told me all things I ever had done.
| ܡܢ ܗܝ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܗ ܫܡܪܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܬܗ ܕܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܡܤܗܕܐ ܗܘܬ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܕܥܒܕܬ |
40 So on this the Samaritans came to him, and besought him to abide with them: and he tarried there two days.
| ܘܟܕ ܐܬܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܗܢܘܢ ܫܡܪܝܐ ܒܥܘ ܡܢܗ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܘܗܘܐ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܬܪܝܢ ܝܘܡܝܢ |
41 And many more believed because of his own word;
| ܘܤܓܝܐܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܗ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܬܗ |
42 and said to the woman, Now we believe, not merely on account of thy relation: for we ourselves have heard, and know that this is of a certainty the Saviour of the world, the Messiah.
| ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܡܟܝܠ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܬܟܝ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܒܗ ܚܢܢ ܓܝܪ ܫܡܥܢ ܘܝܕܥܢ ܕܗܢܘ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܡܚܝܢܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ |
43 Then after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
| ܘܒܬܪ ܬܪܝܢ ܝܘܡܝܢ ܢܦܩ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܘܐܙܠ ܠܓܠܝܠܐ |
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
| ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܤܗܕ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܒܡܕܝܢܬܗ ܠܐ ܡܬܝܩܪ |
45 When therefore he was come into Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all the things which he did at the feast: for they also had gone to the feast.
| ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܐ ܠܓܠܝܠܐ ܩܒܠܘܗܝ ܓܠܝܠܝܐ ܕܚܙܘ ܐܬܘܬܐ ܟܠ ܕܥܒܕ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܒܥܕܥܕܐ ܐܬܘ ܗܘܘ ܓܝܪ ܘܐܦ ܗܢܘܢ ܠܥܕܥܕܐ |
46 Then came Jesus again to Cana of Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And there was a certain attendant on the king, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
| ܐܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܘܒ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܩܛܢܐ ܕܓܠܝܠܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܡܝܐ ܚܡܪܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܥܒܕ ܡܠܟܐ ܚܕ ܕܒܪܗ ܟܪܝܗ ܗܘܐ |
47 This person having heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, went to him, that he might come down, and cure his son: for he was at the point of death.
| ܗܢܐ ܫܡܥ ܕܐܬܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܝܗܘܕ ܠܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܐܙܠ ܠܘܬܗ ܘܒܥܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢܗ ܕܢܚܘܬ ܘܢܐܤܐ ܠܒܪܗ ܩܪܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܓܝܪ ܠܡܡܬ |
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Unless ye see miracles and wonders, ye will not believe.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢ ܐܬܘܬܐ ܘܬܕܡܪܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܚܙܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ |
49 The courtier said to him, Sir, come down before my child is dead.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܘ ܥܒܕ ܡܠܟܐ ܡܪܝ ܚܘܬ ܥܕܠܐ ܡܐܬ ܠܗ ܛܠܝܐ |
50 Jesus saith to him, Go home; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word which Jesus had spoken, and went home.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܙܠ ܒܪܟ ܚܝ ܗܘ ܘܗܝܡܢ ܗܘ ܓܒܪܐ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܙܠ |
51 And as he was now going down home, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son is recovered!
| ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܢܚܬ ܗܘܐ ܐܪܥܘܗܝ ܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܘܤܒܪܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܒܪܟ ܚܝܐ |
52 Then inquired he of them the hour at which he began to amend? and they told him, It was yesterday, at the seventh hour, when the fever left him.
| ܘܫܐܠ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܐܝܢܐ ܥܕܢܐ ܐܬܚܠܡ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܬܡܠܝ ܒܫܒܥ ܫܥܝܢ ܫܒܩܬܗ ܐܫܬܐ |
53 Then the father knew that it was the very hour when Jesus said, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole family.
| ܘܝܕܥ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܕܒܗܝ ܫܥܬܐ ܕܒܗ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܒܪܟ ܚܝܐ ܘܗܝܡܢ ܗܘ ܘܒܝܬܗ ܟܠܗ |
54 This is again a second miracle which Jesus did, when he came from Judea into Galilee.
| ܗܕܐ ܬܘܒ ܐܬܐ ܕܬܪܬܝܢ ܥܒܕ ܝܫܘܥ ܟܕ ܐܬܐ ܡܢ ܝܗܘܕ ܠܓܠܝܠܐ |
