John 20
1 Now on the first day of the week, Maryam Magdelaitha went early, while it was still dark, to the tomb, and saw the stone taken away from the tomb.
Ekuseni kakhulu ngosuku lokuqala lweviki, kulokhu kusemnyama, uMariya Magadalini waya ethuneni wafumana ukuthi ilitshe laselisusiwe emlonyeni wethuna.
2 Therefore she ran and came to Shimon Kipha, and to the other disciple whom Yeshua loved, and said to them, "They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put him."
Ngakho wafika egijima kuSimoni Phethro elomunye umfundi, lowo uJesu ayemthanda, wathi, “Sebeyithethe iNkosi ethuneni, kodwa kasazi ukuthi bayise ngaphi!”
3 Therefore Kipha and the other disciple went out, and they went toward the tomb.
Yikho uPhethro lalowomfundi omunye baqonda ethuneni.
4 They both ran together. The other disciple outran Kipha, and came to the tomb first.
Bobabili babegijima, kodwa lowo omunye umfundi wamtshiya uPhethro wayafika kuqala ethuneni.
5 Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying, yet he did not enter in.
Wakhothama walunguza phakathi wabona amaqhele elineni ekhonapho, kodwa kangenanga.
6 Then Shimon Kipha came, following him, and entered into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying,
Khonokho uSimoni Phethro owayengemuva kwakhe wafika wangena ethuneni. Wawabona amaqhele elineni ethe qekele khonapho,
7 and the cloth that had been on his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but rolled up in a place by itself.
kanye lelembu lokungcwaba elalithandele ikhanda likaJesu. Ilembu lelo laseligoqiwe lodwa lingekho kwawelineni.
8 So then the other disciple who came first to the tomb also entered in, and he saw and believed.
Ekucineni lowo omunye umfundi owayefike kuqala ethuneni laye wangena. Wabona, wakholwa.
9 For as yet they did not know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead.
(Babelokhu bengezwisisi emibhalweni ukuthi uJesu wayemele avuke kwabafileyo.)
10 So the disciples went away again to their own homes.
Abafundi basebebuyela emizini yabo.
11 But Maryam was standing outside at the tomb weeping. So, as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb,
Kodwa uMariya wasala emi ngaphandle kwethuna ekhala. Wathi elokhu ekhala wakhothama walunguza ethuneni
12 and she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Yeshua had lain.
wabona izingilosi ezimbili zigqoke okumhlophe zihlezi lapho isidumbu sikaJesu sasikade sikhona, enye ngasemakhanda, enye ngasezinyaweni.
13 They told her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have put him."
Zambuza zathi, “Mama, ukhalelani na?” Wathi, “Bayisusile iNkosi yami, kangazi ukuthi bayibeke ngaphi.”
14 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Yeshua standing, and did not know that it was Yeshua.
Wasephenduka wabona uJesu emi khonapho, kodwa kananzelelanga ukuthi kwakunguJesu.
15 Yeshua said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?" She, supposing him to be the gardener, said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away."
Wathi, “Mama, ukhalelani na? Ufuna ubani na?” UMariya wayesithi kumbe ngumlimi, wasesithi, “Nkosi, nxa kunguwe omthetheyo, ngitshela ukuthi umbeke ngaphi ukuze ngiyemthatha.”
16 Yeshua said to her, "Maryam." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rabbuli." which is to say, "Teacher."
UJesu wathi, “Mariya.” Waphendukela kuye wamemeza ngesiHebheru wathi, “Rabhoni!” (okutsho ukuthi “Mfundisi”).
17 Yeshua said to her, "Do not touch me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers, and tell them, 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'"
UJesu wathi, “Ungangibambi, ngoba kangikabuyeli kuBaba. Kodwa hamba kubafowethu ubatshele uthi, ‘Sengibuyela kuBaba njalo uYihlo, kuNkulunkulu wami, uNkulunkulu wenu.’”
18 Maryam Magdelaitha came and told the disciples, "I have seen the lord," and that he had said these things to her.
UMariya Magadalini waya kubafundi elombiko othi, “ngiyibonile iNkosi!” Njalo wabatshela ukuthi wayekutshilo lokhu kuye.
19 When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were locked where the disciples were, for fear of the Jewish leaders, Yeshua came and stood in the midst, and said to them, "Peace be to you."
Kusihlwa ngalolosuku lokuqala lweviki, abafundi babendawonye behluthulele iminyango ngoba besesaba amaJuda, uJesu wafika wema phakathi kwabo wathi, “Ukuthula kakube kini!”
20 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore were glad when they saw the Lord.
Esekutshilo lokhu wabatshengisa izandla zakhe lohlangothi lwakhe. Abafundi bathaba kakhulu beyibona iNkosi.
21 Yeshua therefore said to them again, "Peace be to you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you."
UJesu waphinda wathi, “Ukuthula kakube kini! Njengoba uBaba engithumile, lami ngiyalithuma.”
22 When he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Rukha d'Qudsha.
Esitsho lokho wabaphefumulela wathi, “Yamukelani uMoya oNgcwele.
23 Whoever's sins you forgive, they are forgiven them. Whoever's sins you retain, they have been retained."
Nxa lithethelela loba ngubani izono zakhe, zizathethelelwa lezenu, kodwa nxa lingathetheleli ezabanye kazisoze zithethelelwe lezenu.”
24 But Tama, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Yeshua came.
UThomasi (othiwa nguDidimasi), omunye wabalitshumi lambili, wayengekho kwabanye abafundi uJesu aze afike.
25 The other disciples therefore said to him, "We have seen the Lord." But he said to them, "Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and put my finger into the mark of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe."
Kwathi lapho abanye abafundi bemtshela bathi “sesiyibonile iNkosi,” wathandabuza wathi, “Ngaphandle kokuthi ngibone amanxeba ezipikili ezandleni zakhe ngibeke umunwe wami emanxebeni ezipikili, ngifake isandla sami ehlangothini lwakhe, kangisoze ngikholwe.”
26 After eight days again his disciples were inside, and Tama was with them. Yeshua came, the doors being locked, and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace be to you."
Sekudlule iviki abafundi bakhe babesendlini njalo, loThomasi elabo. Njengoba iminyango yayihluthulelwe uJesu wafika wema phakathi kwabo wathi, “Ukuthula kakube kini!”
27 Then he said to Tama, "Put your finger here, and observe my hands. Reach out your hand, and put it into my side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing."
Wasesithi kuThomasi, “Faka umunwe wakho lapha; bona izandla zami. Yelula isandla sakho usibeke ehlangothini lwami. Yekela ukuthandabuza ukholwe.”
28 Tama answered and said to him, "My Lord and my God."
UThomasi wathi kuye, “Nkosi yami, Nkulunkulu wami!”
29 Yeshua said to him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen, and have believed."
UJesu wasemtshela wathi, “Usukholiwe ngoba usungibonile; babusisiwe labo abathi bengabonanga, kodwa sebekholiwe.”
30 Therefore Yeshua did many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book;
UJesu wenza eminye imimangaliso eminengi abafundi bakhe bekhangele, kodwa engabhalwanga kule incwadi.
31 but these are written, that you may believe that Yeshua is the Meshikha, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.
Kodwa le ibhaliwe ukuze likholwe ukuthi uJesu unguKhristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, njalo ukuze kuthi ngokukholwa libe lokuphila ngebizo lakhe.
