John 4
1 When therefore the LORD knew that the Pharisees heard that Jesus makes and immerses more disciples than John,
Mafalisayu wapikiniriti handa Yesu kaweriti kankubatiza na kankuwapata wafundwa wavuwa kuliku Yohani.
2 (though indeed Jesus Himself was not immersing, but His disciples),
Kumbiti nakaka Yesu kawera ndiri kankubatiza ira wafundwa wakuwi ndo waweriti wankubatiza.
3 He left Judea and went away again to Galilee,
Yesu pakapikaniriti aga, kalawa Yudeya kagenda Galilaya,
4 and it was necessary [for] Him to go through Samaria.
pamwanja gwakuwi kalazimika kupitila Samariya.
5 He comes, therefore, to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the place that Jacob gave to his son Joseph;
Su kafikiti Sikari, lushi lumu lwa Samariya, pakwegera na lirambu lilii Yakobu lyakamupiti mwana gwakuwi Yosefu.
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;
Na panu paweriti na linegu lya Yakobu. Yesu kaweriti katoka toziya ya mwanja, su kalivagiti pasi pampenku pa linegu. Iweriti ipata saa sita paliwala.
7 there comes a woman out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus says to her, “Give Me to drink”;
Mdala Msamariya kiziti kuteka mashi na Yesu kamgambira, “Gunupi mashi nandi.”
8 for His disciples were gone away into the city that they may buy food;
Wafundwa wakuwi wagenditi mulushi kuhemera shiboga.
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.
Mdala uliya kamgambira, “Gwenga gwa Muyawudi, neni na Msamariya! Su guwezahashi kunduwa mashi ga kulanda?” Wayawudi hapeni watumii vikombi na vibakuli vyavihanganyikiti na vya wantu wa Samariya.
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.”
Yesu kamwankula, “Handa meguvimaniti mafupu ga Mlungu na gaa yakakuluwa mashi ga kulanda, megumluwi na yomberi mekakupi mashi ga ukomu.”
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?
Mdala uliya kalonga, “Mtuwa, gwenga gwahera shintu sha kutekera mashi na linegu ndo litalipa. Su, hagupati koshi mashi gana ukomu?
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?”
Mbuyi gwetu Yakobu ndo yakatupiti linegu ali, yomberi na wana wakuwi pamuhera na mifugu yakuwi yoseri walanditi mashi aga. Ashi gwenga gulitumba kuwera mkulu kuliku Yakobu?”
13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Everyone who is drinking of this water will thirst again;
Yesu kamwankula, “Woseri walanda mashi aga hawaweri na kwimiluwa kayi.
15 The woman says to Him, “Lord, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”
Mdala uliya kamgambira, “Mtuwa, gunupi mashi aga! Shakapanu hapeni numuluwi kayi na hapeni nizi kayi panu kuteka mashi.”
16 Jesus says to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here”;
Yesu kamgambira, “Gugendi gwakamshemi mpalu gwaku gwizi nayomberi.”
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;
Mdala uliya kamwankula, “Neni nahera mpalu,” Yesu kamgambira, “Gutakula weri pagutakuliti gwahera mpalu.
18 for you have had five husbands, and now, he whom you have is not your husband; you have said this correctly.”
Guyugwa na wapalu wamuhanu, yomberi yagulikala nayu vinu, mpalu gwaku ndiri. Gung'ambira nakaka.”
19 The woman says to Him, “Lord, I perceive that You are a prophet;
Mdala uliya kamgambira, “Mtuwa, mona gwenga gwa mbuyi gwa Mlungu.
20 our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and You say that in Jerusalem is the place where it is required to worship.”
Wambuyi wangu wa Samariya wamguwiriti Mlungu mulugongu alu, su mwenga Wayawudi mlonga kuwera Yerusalemu ndo pahala pa kumwabudu Mlungu.”
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;
Yesu kamgambira, “Mdala, gunjimira, shipindi shankwiza ndo sheni wantu hapeni wamguwira Tati mulugongu alu ama ku Yerusalemu.
22 you worship what you have not known; we worship what we have known, because salvation is of the Jews;
Mwenga Wasamaliya muvimana ndiri nakaka yawamguwira, kumbiti twenga Wayawudi tumumana yatumguwira, toziya ulopoziya wiza kulawa kwa Wayawudi.
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;
Kumbiti shipindi shankwiza na kayi shisoka kala, peni wawamguwira nakaka, hawamguwili Tati kwa likakala lya Rohu, wantu wamguwira hangu ndo Tati yakawafira.
24 God [is] Spirit, and those worshiping Him should worship in spirit and truth.”
Mlungu ndo Rohu, na wantu hawawezi hera kumwabudu nakaka kwa likakala lya Rowu gwakuwi.”
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”;
Mdala ulii kamgambira, “Nuvimana kuwera Kristu Mlopoziya yakasyagulitwi hakizi na pakiza hakatugambiri twenga kila shintu.”
26 Jesus says to her, “I who am speaking to you am [He].”
Yesu kamgambira, “Neni, ndo yantakula na gwenga.”
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?”
Shipindi shila shilii wafundwa wa Yesu wawuyiti na waweriti na likangasha likulu pawamwona Yesu pakatakula na mdala. Kwehera yumu pakati pawu yakamgambiriti mdala ulii, “Gufira shishi?” Ama kumkosiya Yesu, “Iwera hashi gwankutakula na mdala ayu?”
28 The woman then left her water-jug and went away into the city, and says to the men,
Su, mdala uliya kaileka vulu yakuwi, kagenda mulushi na kuwagambira wantu,
29 “Come, see a Man who told me all things—as many as I did; is this the Christ?”
“Mwizi mloli muntu yakang'ambiriti vitwatira vyoseri vyantenditi. Hashi, iwezikana yomberi kawera Kristu yakasyagulitwi na Mlungu?”
30 They went forth therefore out of the city, and were coming to Him.
Wantu walawa mulushi, wamgendera Yesu.
31 And in the meanwhile His disciples were asking Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat”;
Shipindi shila shiriya wafundwa waweriti wankumuhiga Yesu, “mfunda, gulii shiboga!”
32 and He said to them, “I have food to eat that you have not known.”
Su Yesu kawankula, “Neni nana shiboga shamshimana ndiri.”
33 The disciples then said to one another, “Did anyone bring Him anything to eat?”
Wafundwa wakuwi walitakuziyana weni, “Hashi, kwana muntu yoseri yakamjegiriti shiboga?”
34 Jesus says to them, “My food is that I may do the will of Him who sent Me, and may finish His work;
Yesu kawagambira, “Shiboga shaneni ndo kugajimira gakafira ulii yakantumiti neni na kumalira lihengu lyakanupiti kutenda.
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.
Mwenga mtakula, ‘Kunkali myezi ya msheshi hera, shipindi sha kubenanga hashisoki.’ Su nukugambirani, mloli marambu, viboga vinu vipiya kala na viwera kala kubenanga!
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)
Yakabena viboga kankupata shibenamgongu na kankujojinira viboga kwa mashaka goseri, su yumonga yakayala na ulii yakabena hawanemeleri pamuhera. (aiōnios g166)
37 for in this the saying is the true one, that one is the sower and another the reaper.
Kutakula aku kwa nakaka, ‘Yumu kayalaga na yumonga kabenaga.’
38 I sent you to reap on that which you have not labored; others labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
Neni nuwatumiti mwenga mwakabeni viboga mulirambu mtenda ndiri lihengu, wamonga watenditi lihengu kulii na mwenga muna mota kulawirana na lihengu lyawatenditi.”
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.”
Wasamariya wavuwa mulushi lulii wamjimiriti Yesu toziya mdala uliya katakuliti, “Kang'ambiriti neni shintu shoseri shantenditi.”
40 When, then, the Samaritans came to Him, they were asking Him to remain with them, and He remained there two days;
Su Wasamariya pawamgendiriti Yesu, wamuluwiti yomberi kalikali pamuhera na womberi na Yesu kalikaliti kulii mashaka mawili.
41 and many more believed because of His word,
Wantu wavuwa wamjimiriti toziya ya ujumbi wakuwi,
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.”
na womberi wamgambira mdala uliya, “Vinu twenga tujimira, toziya ndiri ya shilii shagutakuliti, ira toziya twenga tumpikanira twaweni na tuvimana kuwera nakaka ndo Mlopoziya gwa pasipanu.”
43 And after the two days He went forth from there, and went away to Galilee,
Pagapititi mashaka mawili, Yesu kawukiti paliya na kugenda Galilaya.
44 for Jesus Himself testified that a prophet will not have honor in his own country;
Mana Yesu mweni katakuliti, “Mbuyi gwa Mlungu hapeni kapananwi ligoya muisi yakuwi.”
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.
Pakafikiti Galilaya, wantu wa paliya wamshemiriti, toziya pawaweriti mumsambu gwa Pasaka kulii Yerusalemu wawonaga vitwatira vyoseri vyakatenditi Yesu shipindi sha msambu.
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,
Su Yesu kawuyiti kayi Kana mumkowa gwa Galilaya, pahala pakagalambuziti mashi kuwera divayi. Afisa gwa sirikali kaweriti paliya mwana gwakuwi kaweriti kalwala ku Kafarinaumu.
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.
Pakapikaniriti handa Yesu kankwiza Galilaya pakalawila Yudeya, kamgendiriti yomberi na kumgambira kagendi Kaferinawumu na kamuponiziyi mwana gwakuwi, yakaweriti sambira kahowa.
48 Jesus then said to him, “If you may not see signs and wonders, you will not believe.”
Yesu kamgambira, “Pamwona ndiri malangaliru na mauzauza, hapeni mjimiri!”
49 The attendant says to Him, “Lord, come down before my child dies”;
Afisa ulii kamwankula, “Mtuwa, tugendi pamuhera vinu, mwana keni howi.”
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,
Yesu kamgambira, “Gugendi, mwana gwaku hakaweri mkomu!” Muntu uliya kavimaniti visoweru vya Yesu, su kagenda zakuwi.
51 and he now going down, his servants met him, and told, saying, “Your child lives”;
Pakaweriti kankali kamunjira kuwuya ukaya kaliwoniti na wantumintumi wakuwi pawamjegera visoweru, “Mndemba gwakuwi kawera mkomu!”
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”;
Kawakosiya shipindi gaa mwana gwakuwi pakaweriti mkomu na womberi wamwankula, “Iweriti saa saba paliwala lishu nshimba kupyupa paimlekeziyiti.”
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;
Tati uliya kaliholiti kuwera shipindi shiliya ndo Yesu pakamgambiriti, “Mwana gwaku hakaweri mkomu.” Su mweni pamuhera na kaya yakuwi yoseri wamjimira Yesu.
54 this again [was] a second sign Jesus did, having come out of Judea to Galilee.
Liuzauza ali ndo lya pili lyakatenditi Yesu pakaweriti kankulawa Yudeya na kugenda Galilaya.
