John 4
1 WHEN therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
Bafalisi balanyumfweti Yesu lasandulunga bantu bangi kuba beshikwiya ne kubabatisha kupita Yohane,
2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples, )
Yesu uliya kubatishapo muntu naba umo, nsombi beshikwiya bakendi ebalikubatisha.
3 He left Judæa, and departed again into Galilee.
Yesu mpwalenshiba ncebalikwamba, walafumako kuYudeya ne kubwelela ku Galileya.
4 And he must needs go through Samaria.
Pabulwendo bwakendi walaciboneti welela kupitila mucishi ca Samaliya.
5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
Lino walashika ku munshi waku Samaliya, walikukwiweti Sika, pepi ne kamusena ako Yakobo nkalapa Yosefe mwanendi.
6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
Kopeloko kwalikuba mukalo walikuba waYakobo. Yesu walekala panshi pambali pamukalo uyo, pakwinga walikuba laleme nemusuma. Cindi calikuba muma 12 koloko munshi.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
Mutukashi wa kuSamaliya walesakuteka menshi. Yesu walamusengeti, “kamumpako menshi akunwa.”
8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
Pacindi ico beshikwiya bakendi balikuba balayi akula cakulya mumunshi.
9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
Mutukashi usa walakumbuleti, “Amwe Bayuda, nicani mulasengenga menshi kuli nde Musamaliya?” Pakwinga Bayuda nkabendelana ne Basamaliya.
10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
Yesu walambeti, “Nkocishi cipo Lesa ncalayandanga kukupa, kayi nkomwinshi lakusengenga menshi akunwa, numwinshi nshinga nulamusenge menshi eshikupa buyumi.”
11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
Mutukashi uyo walambeti, “Nkambo, muliyawa cakutekesha, kayi mukalo uyu nutali, nomba menshi eshikupa buyumi ayo nimwafunye kupeyo?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
Sena amwe mwapita bata bakulukulu balikubako ba Yakobo? uyo walashiya mukalo uyu ngalikunwamo mwine ne bana bendi kayi ne biswika byakendi.”
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
Yesu walakumbuleti, “Muntu uliyense lanunga menshi aya nakanyumfwe inyotwa kayi.
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
Mutukashi uyo walambeti, “Nkambo, kamumpako ayo menshi kwambeti ntakanyumfwapo nyotwa nambi ntakesa kayi kuno akuteka menshi.”
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
Yesu walambeti, “Koya ukuwe baibobe mwise,”
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
Mutukashi uyo walambeti, “Ndiyawa mulume.” Yesu walakumbuleti, “Ulambanga cakubinga uliyawa mulume.
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
Obe walebwapo kendi kubatuloba basanu, kayi mutuloba ngoli nendi lino nte ibobe, mutukashi walambeti, mulamba cakubinga.”
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
Mutukashi walambeti, “Nkambo, ndacinshibi kwambeti njamwe Mushinshimi.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
Bamashali betu bakulukulu balikupaila Lesa pa mulundu uyu, nsombi amwe Bayuda mukute kwambeti kuYelusalemu ekwelela kupailila.”
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
Yesu walamwambileti, “Koshoma ncendambanga.” Cindi nicikashike nceshi mukabule kupailila Bata pa mulundu pano, nambi kuYelusalemu.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
Basamaliya mukute kupaila ngo mutenshi, afwe Bayuda tukute kupaila ngotwinshi, pakwinga lupulusho nilukacanike kupitila mu Bayuda.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
“Nomba cindi nicikashike, kayi cilashiki kendi, bantu beshikupaila Cancine ncine mpoti bakapaile Bata mu Mushimu nemu cancine ncine. Bata bakute kuyanda bantu beshikumupaila mumushoboyo.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Lesa ni Mushimu, neco beshikumupaila bela kumupaila mu Mushimu ne mu Cancine ncine.”
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
Mutukashi usa walambeti, “Ndicinsheti Klistu Mupulushi Walaiwa lakesanga, akashika, nakatwambile byonse.”
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
Yesu walamwambileti, “Ame ngolambanga nendi njame wopeloyo.”
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
Pacindi copeleco beshikwiya ba Yesu balashika, nomba balakankamana mpobalacana kabandika ne mutukashi. Paliya walamwipusheti, “Ulayandanga cani” Nambi, “Nicani mulabandikinga nendi?”
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
Mutukashi usa walashiya mungomo wakendi ne kuya mu munshi akwambila bantu,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
“Katuyani mubone muntu lang'ambili byonse mbyondalensa. Sena ngakali usa Mupulushi Walaiwa?
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
Lino bantu balayoboloka kufuma mumunshi kwisa kuli Yesu.”
31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
Pacindi copeleco beshikwiya ba Yesu balamusengeti, “Mwiyi, kamulyani.”
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
Nendi walakumbuleti, “Ame nkute cakulya amwe ncomutenshi.”
33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat?
Popelapo beshikwiya balatatika kwipushana, “Sena kuli naumbi lamuletele cakulya?”
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
Nomba Yesu walambeti, “Cakulya cakame nikwinsa ibyo mbyasuni Lesa walantuma ne kupwisha mulimo wakendi.”
35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
Mukute kwambeti, pakati pakushanga ne kutebula pali myenshi ina nambi ingi, nsombi kamulangishisha bishango bilapi kendi, bilapembelengowa kutebula.
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)
Musebenshi shikutebula latatiki kendi kufola, kayi labunganyanga bisepo kubuymi butapu. Neco shikushanga ne shikutebula nibakakondwe pamo. (aiōnios g166)
37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
Neco mwambo wakwambeti, “Nabambi bakute kushanga, kayi nabambi bakute kwisa kutebula niwakubinga.”
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
Ndamutumunga kuya kutebula bishango mumabala alalimwa kendi ne bantu bambi. Amwe mulacaninipo pindu pa ncito yabo.
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
Basamaliya bangi ba mumunshi musa balamushoma Yesu pacebo cabukamboni bwa mutukashi usa, bwakwambeti, “nendi langambili byonse mbyondalensa.”
40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
Lino Basamaliya mpobalashika kuli Yesu, balamusengeti ekale nabo. Neco walekala kopeloko masuba abili.
41 And many more believed because of his own word;
Popelapo bantu bangi balashoma pacebo ca maswi ngobalanyumfwa kuli Yesu.
42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
Usa mutukashu balamwambileti, “Tulashomo lino, tuliya kushoma pacebo ca maswi akobe, nsombi pacebo cakwambeti tulalinyumfwili tobene. Tulenshibi cakubinga kwambeti uyu eMupulushi wa bantu ba pacishi capanshi conse.”
43 Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
Nomba mpopalapita masuba abili, Yesu walafumako nekuya ku Galileya.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
Nomba Yesu mwine walambeti, “mushinshimi, nkakute kupewa bulemu kucomwabo.”
45 Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilæans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
Mpwalashika kuGalileya, bantu balamutambula, pakwinga balabonapo kendi byonse mbyalensa pakusekelela Pasika ku Yelusalemu pakwinga naboyo balikubako.
46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
Kufumapo Yesu walaya kumunshi wa kana ku Galileya, kusa nkwalasandula menshi kuba waini. Kopeloko kwalikuba mukulene wamfulumende ku Kapelenaumu walikukute mwana mulwashi.
47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judæa into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.
Mpalanyumfweti Yesu lashiki kuGalileya kufuma kuYudeya, walesa kulyendiye nekumusengeti enga nendi ku Kapelenaumu, kwambeti enga ashilike mwanendi walikuba pepi kufwa.
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
Yesu walamwambileti, “wabula kubona bingashilo ne bikankamanisho, nkamushomo sobwe.”
49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
Mukulene wa mfulumende walambeti, “Nkambo, katuyani pamo mwaname nkatanafwa.”
50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.
Yesu walamwambileti, “Koya mwanobe lasenguku kendi.” Muntuyo walashoma maswi a Yesu nekuya kucomwabo.
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth.
Mpwalikuya walakumana ne basebenshi bakendi, nabo balamwambileti, “Mwanenu laba cena.”
52 Then inquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
Walabepusha cindi ncalaba cena mwanoyo, nabo balambeti, “Watatika kunyumfwa cena lilo munshi muma 1 koloko.”
53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
Lino baishi mwana balanuketi ecindi Yesu mpwalabambileti, “Mwanobe lasenguku.” Neco bonse bamung'anda yakendi balamushoma.
54 This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judæa into Galilee.
Ici calikuba cingashilo cacibili ncalensa ku Kana, wa kuGalileya mpwalafuma ku Yudeya.
