John 4
1 When therefore the LORD knew that the Pharisees heard that Jesus makes and immerses more disciples than John,
Jesuh naw Johana kthaka Baptican jah pe lü, axüisaw hea jah pyangki tia mawng, Pharisee naw ngjakie.
2 (though indeed Jesus Himself was not immersing, but His disciples),
(Akcanga ta, Jesuh amät naw baptican am jah pe, axüisaw he naw ami jah peta kyaki),
3 He left Judea and went away again to Galilee,
Ami pyena mawng Jesuh naw a ngjak ja Judah khaw ceh ta lü, Kalile khaw da,
4 and it was necessary [for] Him to go through Samaria.
Samarih khaw sunpah lü cit yahki.
5 He comes, therefore, to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the place that Jacob gave to his son Joseph;
Jakop naw a capa Josep üng a peta khaw pei, Samarih khaw hne Sukhar mlüha pha lawki.
6 and there was there a well of Jacob. Jesus therefore having been weary from the journeying, was thus sitting on the well; it was as it were the sixth hour;
Acuia Jakopa tuikhui veki. Jesuh lam a lawnak bawngbai lü, tuikhui peia ngawki. Acun cun mhnüp ngsunga kyaki.
7 there comes a woman out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus says to her, “Give Me to drink”;
Samarih nghnumi tui than khaia law se Jesuh naw, “Ka awk vai tui na pea,” a ti.
8 for His disciples were gone away into the city that they may buy food;
(Acun k'um üng, axüisaw he cun mlüh k’uma ei vai khyäi acun hea citkie.)
9 the Samaritan woman therefore says to Him, “How do You, being a Jew, ask drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?” For Jews have no dealing with Samaritans.
Samarih nghnumi naw, “Ihawkba, nang Judah khyang naw, kei Samarih nghnumia veia tui na awk vai na täeiki ni?” ti lü, a kthäh be. (Judah khyang mjüe cun Samarih khyangea eiawknak tuikhawt üng eiawk am thum na u.)
10 Jesus answered and said to her, “If you had known the gift of God, and who it is who is saying to you, Give Me to drink, you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”
Jesuh naw, “Pamhnam naw nang üng i ning pet hlüki ti am ksingki, u naw tui ning täeiki ti pi am ksingki. Na ksinga ta, angsäia xünnak tui ning pet vaia na na täei khai sü,” a ti.
11 The woman says to Him, “Lord, You do not even have a vessel to draw with, and the well is deep; from where, then, have You the living water?
Nghnumi naw, “Saja aw, tuikhui thuki, vähnak vai tuipung pi am na taki. Hawia kaa xünnak tui na taki ni?
12 Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself drank out of it, and his sons, and his livestock?”
“Hina tuikhui, amät naw aw khawi lü, a cae ja, a khyüngseie naw pi ami awk khawi, kami pu Jakop naw a jah pet, nang ania kthaka kyäp bawk aih lü,” a ti.
13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Everyone who is drinking of this water will thirst again;
Jesuh naw msang lü, “Hina tui awki naküt ta, tui cawi be ham khai.
15 The woman says to Him, “Lord, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”
Nghnumi naw, “Saja aw, tui am cawi ti lü, tui than khaia hia käh ka law be ti vaia, acuna tui na pea,” a ti.
16 Jesus says to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here”;
Jesuh naw, “Cita, na cei va khü lü, law bea,” a ti.
17 the woman answered and said, “I do not have a husband.” Jesus says to her, “Well did you say—I do not have a husband;
Nghnumi naw, “Ka cei am ve,” ti se, Jesuh naw, “Ka cei am ve na ti cang veki,
18 for you have had five husbands, and now, he whom you have is not your husband; you have said this correctly.”
Na cei mhma ve pängki, tuh na vepüi pi na ceia am kya; acen üng akcang pyen veki,” a ti.
19 The woman says to Him, “Lord, I perceive that You are a prophet;
Nghnumi naw, “Saja aw, sahma mata na kya khaia ning ksing veng.
20 our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and You say that in Jerusalem is the place where it is required to worship.”
“Kami pupae naw hina mcung üng Pamhnam a na hjawkhah khawikie. Nangmi Judahe naw, ‘Jerusalema ni Pamhnam hjawkhahnak’ nami tiki” a ti.
21 Jesus says to her, “Woman, believe Me, that there comes an hour when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, will you worship the Father;
Jesuh naw, “Nghnumi aw, ka pyen hin juma. Khyang he naw Pa cun ahina mcung ja Jerusalem mlüha am ami hjawkhahnak tia kcün pha law khai.
22 you worship what you have not known; we worship what we have known, because salvation is of the Jews;
“Nangmi Samarihe naw nami hjawkhah am ksing uki. Cunüngpi, keimi Judahe naw ta u kami hjawkhahki ti kami ksingki. Isetiakyaküng, küikyannak cun Judahe üngka naw lawkia kyaki.
23 but there comes an hour, and it now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also seeks such to worship Him;
“Acunsepi, akcün pha law khai, hjawkhahkie naw Ngmüimkhya ja akcanga ami hjawkhah vai cun tukbäih yea kya ve. Pa naw acukba hjawkhah khaie jah hlüeiki.
24 God [is] Spirit, and those worshiping Him should worship in spirit and truth.”
“Mhnam cun Ngmüimkhyaa kyaki. Hjawkhahki naküt naw Ngmüimkhya ja ngthungtak am hjawkhah yah vai,” a ti.
25 The woman says to Him, “I have known that Messiah comes, who is called Christ, when that One may come, He will tell us all things”;
Nghnumi naw, “Mesijah law khai ti ka ksingki. Ani a law üng, ani naw ahmäi naküt jah mtheh law khai,” a ti.
26 Jesus says to her, “I who am speaking to you am [He].”
Jesuh naw, “Nang ning ngthuheipüiki hin ani ni,” a ti.
27 And on this came His disciples, and were wondering that He was speaking with a woman, no one, however, said, “What do You seek?” Or “Why do You speak with her?”
Acunüng axüisaw he law bekie naw nghnumi am a na ngthuhei se hmuh u lü müncankie. Acunsepi, u naw pi, “I na ngaihki? Ise hina nghnumi na ngthuheipüiki ni?” ti lü, am kthäh u.
28 The woman then left her water-jug and went away into the city, and says to the men,
Nghnumi naw a tui um hawih hüt lü, a lawnak khaw da citki naw khyange üng jah mtheh lü,
29 “Come, see a Man who told me all things—as many as I did; is this the Christ?”
“Law ua, ka awmih khawi naküt ksingkia khyang mat ve ve, teng law u. Mesijah am niki aw?” a ti.
30 They went forth therefore out of the city, and were coming to Him.
Mlüh ceh ta u lü, Jesuha veia citkie.
31 And in the meanwhile His disciples were asking Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat”;
Acun k'um üng axüisaw he naw, “Rabbi, na ei eia” ti lü, ami mtheh.
32 and He said to them, “I have food to eat that you have not known.”
Acunsepi Jesuh naw, “Nangmi naw am nami ksing ka ei vai ta veng,” a ti.
33 The disciples then said to one another, “Did anyone bring Him anything to eat?”
Axüisawe amimät üng, “A ei vai tha lawki veki aw” ti lü, ngthähkie.
34 Jesus says to them, “My food is that I may do the will of Him who sent Me, and may finish His work;
Jesuh naw, “Na tüih lawkia a ngjak hlü bilawh ja, a khut kpäng vai cun keia eiawka kyaki ni.
35 do not say that it is yet four months, and the harvest comes; behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes, and see the fields, that they are white to harvest already.
“‘Khya kphyü ve hamki, acun käna cang ahnaka kcün pha law khai’ am nami ti khawiki aw? Teng u, ka ning jah mthehki, mang hü u lü, loe jah teng süm ua, hmin päng lü, ah vai kcün ve u.
36 And he who is reaping receives a reward, and gathers fruit to continuous life, that both he who is sowing and he who is reaping may rejoice together; (aiōnios g166)
“Atki naw ngkhyengnak yah lü anglät xünnak vaia a ktheipai mcun ve, sawki ja atki ani nghngih atänga je yüm khai xawi. (aiōnios g166)
37 for in this the saying is the true one, that one is the sower and another the reaper.
“Ahin üng, ‘mat naw saw se, mat naw atki’ tia khuisui cun cang ve.
38 I sent you to reap on that which you have not labored; others labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
“Am nami khüinak khawia loa cang at khaia ka ning jah tüihki. Acuia akce he naw khüi u se, ami khüinak kce cun nangmia ngmangnak ni,” a ti.
39 And many from that city believed in Him, of the Samaritans, because of the word of the woman testifying, “He told me all things—as many as I did.”
Acunüng, “Ka awmih naküt ksingki ve ve,” tia, ngthu, nghnumi naw a pyena phäha Samarih khyang khawhah naw Jesuh jum lawkie.
40 When, then, the Samaritans came to Him, they were asking Him to remain with them, and He remained there two days;
Samarih khyange Jesuh veia ami law üng ami veia a ve vaia nghui na u se, acuia Jesuh cun mhnüp nghngih awmki.
41 and many more believed because of His word,
Jesuh a ngthu pyena phäh khyang khawkän naw jum lawkie.
42 and said to the woman, “We no longer believe because of your speaking; for we ourselves have heard and known that this is truly the Savior of the world—the Christ.”
Acunakyase, nghnumia veia, “Tuh ta, nanga pyena phäha am kya lü, kamimät naw kami ngjak ja akcanga hin hin khawmdeka Küikyan Bawia kyaki ti, kami ksinga phäha kami jumki,” ami ti.
43 And after the two days He went forth from there, and went away to Galilee,
Amhnüp nghngih käna, acun üngka naw Kalile hne da citki.
44 for Jesus Himself testified that a prophet will not have honor in his own country;
Isetiakyaküng, Jesuh amät naw, “Sahma cun amäta hminaka khawa mhlünmtainak am yah khawi naw,” a ti.
45 when then, He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all things that He did in Jerusalem in the celebration—for they also went to the celebration.
Jerusalem Lätnak Pawia cit u lü Pawi k’um üng Jesuh naw a jah pawhmsah naküt jah hmukie naw ta, Kalile khawa Jesuh a law üng, Kalile khyange naw dokhamkie.
46 Jesus came, therefore, again to Cana of Galilee, where He made the water wine, and there was a certain attendant, whose son was ailing in Capernaum,
Acun käna Jesuh Kalile khaw Kana, tui cun capyituia a nglatnak sak hnüna law beki. Acuia khyang ngvai mat a capa Kapenawm mlüha a mhnatei veki.
47 he, having heard that Jesus comes out of Judea to Galilee, went away to Him, and was asking Him that He may come down and may heal his son, for he was about to die.
Ani naw Jesuh Judah khaw üngka naw Kalile khawa lawki ti a ngjak üng, a capa thih law hlüki, law lü a mdaw law be vaia cit lü a va nghuinak.
48 Jesus then said to him, “If you may not see signs and wonders, you will not believe.”
Jesuh naw, “U naw pi müncanksee ja cäiletnake am nami hmuh üng amdanga am jum hlü uki,” a ti.
49 The attendant says to Him, “Lord, come down before my child dies”;
Khyang ngvai naw, “Saja aw, ka ca am a thih ham üng akjanga lawa,” a ti.
50 Jesus says to him, “Be going on; your son lives.” And the man believed the word that Jesus said to him, and was going on,
Jesuh naw, “Cit bea, na capa daw be khai ni,” a ti. Khyang ngvai cun Jesuha pyen jum lü nghlat beki.
51 and he now going down, his servants met him, and told, saying, “Your child lives”;
A nghlat be lama a mpyae naw a na khyum u lü, “Na capa dawei law be ve,” ti lü, ami mtheh.
52 he inquired then of them the hour in which he became better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him”;
Ngvai naw iti üng a capa a daw law bea mawng jah kthäh se, amimi naw, “Müta, mü lam naji mat üng mhnat naw khyah ve,” ti lü, ami mtheh.
53 then the father knew that [it was] in that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives,” and he himself believed, and his whole house;
Jesuh naw, “Na capa daw be khai ni,” a tinaka kcüna kyaki ti a ksing. Acunakyase, amät ja a khuiim kyawnglawng ami van naw jumkie.
54 this again [was] a second sign Jesus did, having come out of Judea to Galilee.
Ahin cun Jesuh Judah khaw üngka naw Kalile khawa a law käna anghngihnak müncankse a pawha kyaki.
