< John 21 >

1 After these things Jesus Himself again appeared to the disciples on the Sea of Tiberias, and He revealed Himself thus:
Lani n pendi Jesu go den doagidi o yuli, o hoadikaaba po tibeliada ñincianma boanjaali po. Diidi wan den doagidi o yuli bi po maama:
2 Simon Peter, and Thomas who is called Didymus, and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two of His other disciples were together.
Simono Pieli, Toma ban go yi yua li poli, Nataneli Galile yua, leni Sebede bi jaba leni Jesu hoadikaaba toaba bonbilie, den taa ki ye.
3 Simon Peter says to them, “I go away to fish”; they say to him, “We go—we also—with you”; they went forth and immediately entered into the boat, and on that night they caught nothing.
Simono Pieli den yedi ba: N baa gedi u jankpaanu. Bi den yedi o: Ti moko baa yegi leni a. Bi den ñani ki kua ku ñinbiagu nni ki gedi u jankpaanu, ama laa ñiagu baa den baa li ba kuli.
4 And morning having now come, Jesus stood at the shore, yet indeed the disciples did not know that it is Jesus;
U yienu n den pudi yaa yogunu Jesu den se li boanjaali po, ama bi hoadikaaba ki den bandi ke li tie Jesu yo.
5 Jesus, therefore, says to them, “Boys, do you have any meat?”
Jesu den yedi ba: N bila yii pia bonjekaala? Bi den guani ki yedi o: Tii pia li ba.
6 They answered Him, “No”; and He said to them, “Cast the net at the right side of the boat, and you will find [some]”; they cast, therefore, and no longer were they able to draw it, from the multitude of the fishes.
Oden yedi ba: Lu mani yi taali ku ñinbiagu jienu po yi baa ba. Lane bi den luni utaalu ki cuo yi jami hali maama ke baa fidi ki baa dadi u.
7 That disciple, therefore, whom Jesus was loving says to Peter, “It is the Lord!” Simon Peter, therefore, having heard that it is the LORD, girded on the outer coat (for he was naked), and cast himself into the sea;
Lane Jesu n den bua yaa hoadikoa yeni den yedi pieli: O diedo yo de! Pieli n den gbadi ke li tie o Diedo, o den ñani ki taa o tiadi ki yie kelima o den ye mubile mi ñima nni.
8 and the other disciples came by the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits away, dragging the net of the fishes;
Yaa hoadikaaba n sieni den cua leni ku ñinbiagu ki dadi yi taali ke yi gbie leni ijami ki ñani li gbanli po, kelima bani leni li gbanli foagimu ki den cie nukpanduna kobilie.
9 when, therefore, they came to the land, they behold a fire of coals lying [there], and a fish lying on it, and bread.
Ban den ñani ku ñinbiagu nni ki sedi li boanjaali po bi den sua ke mi fantama co likani ke ijami huaba ke dupen mo ye.
10 Jesus says to them, “Bring from the fishes that you caught now”;
Jesu den yedi ba: Cuani mani yin cuo yaa jami yeni ne.
11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net up on the land, full of great fishes—one hundred fifty-three; and though they were so many, the net was not split.
Simono Pieli den kua ku ñinbiagu nni, ki dadi yi taali ki cuani li boanjaali po, ke yi gbie leni yaa jangbenga n pundi kobiga n piimu n bonbitaa, ama baa ke yi jami den yaba bi taali naa den padi.
12 Jesus says to them, “Come, dine”; and none of the disciples were venturing to inquire of Him, “Who are You?” Knowing that it is the LORD;
Jesu den yedi ba: Cua mani ki siibi, ama bi siiga baa yendo ki den buali o, a tie ŋme yo? Bi den bani ke li tie o Diedo.
13 Jesus, therefore, comes and takes the bread and gives [it] to them, and the fish in like manner;
Jesu den nagini ki taa dupen ki teni ba ki go teni ba ijami moko.
14 this [is] now a third time Jesus was revealed to His disciples, having been raised from the dead.
Lani n den tie mi tataama ke Jesu doagidi o yuli, o hoadikaaba po, o fiima bi tinkpiba siiga puoli.
15 When, therefore, they dined, Jesus says to Simon Peter, “Simon, [son] of Jonas, do you love Me more than these?” He says to Him, “Yes, Lord; You have known that I cherish You”; He says to him, “Feed My lambs.”
Ban den dini ki gbeni Jesu den yedi simono pieli: Jonasa bijua Simono, a buani ki cie yaaba n tiene bi? O den guani ki yedi o: Mm, n Diedo a bani ke n bua ha. Jesu den guani ki yedi o: Yaa kpaa n pebila.
16 He says to him again, a second time, “Simon, [son] of Jonas, do you love Me?” He says to Him, “Yes, Lord; You have known that I cherish You”; He says to him, “Tend My sheep.”
O go den yedi o mi taaliema, Jonasa bijua Simono ha buani? Pieli den guani ki yedi o: Mm, n Diedo a bani ke n bua ha. Jesu den yedi o: Yaa kpaa n pe.
17 He says to him the third time, “Simon, [son] of Jonas, do you cherish Me?” Peter was grieved that He said to him the third time, “Do you cherish Me?” And he said to Him, “Lord, You have known all things; You know that I cherish You.” Jesus says to him, “Feed My sheep;
O go den yedi o mi tataama: Jonasa bijua Simono a bua nni? Lanyaapo Pieli yama den yagi leni wan buali o, hali taalimata ha bua nni, lane o den guani ki yedi o: o Diedo a bani li bonla kuli, a bani ke n bua ha. Jesu den yedi o: Yaa kpaa n pe.
18 truly, truly, I say to you, when you were younger, you were girding yourself and were walking to where you willed, but when you may be old, you will stretch forth your hands, and another will gird you, and will carry [you] to where you do not will”;
N waani a imoamoani han bi tie jawaalo a bi yie ki ñagindi a gbanñagidigu fini a ba ki caa han bua naani. Ama a yaa ban podi a baa tandi a nii, nitoa n ñagini apo, ki go dadi ki gedini a, han ki bua naani.
19 and this He said, signifying by what death he will glorify God; and having said this, He says to him, “Follow Me.”
O den maadi yeni ki waani pieli n baa kpe yaa kuuma lan kpiagi o Diedo, lani o den yedi pieli hoadi nni.
20 And having turned, Peter sees the disciple whom Jesus was loving following (who also reclined in the dinner on His breast and said, “Lord, who is he who is delivering You up?”)
Pieli den jigidi ki laa Jesu n bua yaa hoadikoa yeni ke o kpendi bi kani, wani n tie yua n den duani ki paani o yuli Jesu benli po ban den janbi o yaa ñiagu yeni, ki buali o: o Diedo ŋme n baa janbi a?
21 Having seen this one, Peter says to Jesus, “Lord, and what of this one?”
Pieli n den laa o, o den yedi Jesu: N Diedo one mote? li baa tua opo lede?
22 Jesus says to him, “If I will him to remain until I come, what [is that] to you? Follow Me.”
Jesu den yedi o: N yaa bua wan yaa ye hali min baan guani ki cua, lan tie maama kuli fini wani li huadini de!
23 This word, therefore, went forth to the brothers that this disciple does not die, yet Jesus did not say to him that he does not die, but, “If I will him to remain until I come, what [is that] to you?”
Lane mi maama den yadi bi kpiiba siiga, Jesu yedi laa hoadikoa kan kpe, ki sua Jesu naa yedi Pieli ke laa hoadikoa kan kpe ka, ama o den yedi o: N yaa bua wan yaa ye hali min baa guani ki cua, li hua ha bi?
24 This is the disciple who is testifying concerning these things, and he wrote these things, and we have known that his testimony is true.
Laa hoadikoa n tiendi yaa bonla n tiena siedi ki go diani la, ti bani ke osiedi tie moamoani.
25 And there are also many other things—as many as Jesus did—which, if they may be written one by one, I think the world itself does not even have place for the scrolls written. Amen.
Jesu go den tieni bontoala boncianla, bi ya bi diani li kuli bonyenla yenla, handuna na niinni kan bi yaa pia yaa kaanu n baa fidi ki ga ban diani yaa tila.
