John 2
1 And on the third day there was a marriage-feast in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.
Siku ya tatu kulikuwa na arusi katika mji wa Kana ya Galilaya, naye mama yake Yesu alikuwepo pale.
2 And both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the feast.
Yesu pamoja na wanafunzi wake walikuwa wamealikwa arusini pia.
3 And they had no wine, because the wine of the feast had failed. Then the mother of Jesus saith to him, There is no wine.
Divai ilipokwisha, mama yake Yesu akamwambia, “Wameishiwa na divai.”
4 Jesus saith to her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? My hour is not yet come.
Yesu akamwambia, “Mwanamke, nina nini nawe? Saa yangu haijawadia.”
5 His mother saith to the servants, Whatever he saith to you, do it.
Mama yake akawaambia wale watumishi, “Lolote atakalowaambia, fanyeni.”
6 Now there were set there six water-pots of stone, in conformity with the Jews' custom of purifying, containing two or three firkins apiece.
Basi ilikuwepo mitungi sita ya kuhifadhia maji iliyotengenezwa kwa mawe kwa ajili ya kujitakasa kwa desturi ya Kiyahudi; kila mtungi ungeweza kuchukua vipipa viwili au vitatu.
7 Jesus saith to them, Fill the water-pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
Yesu akawaambia wale watumishi, “Ijazeni hiyo mitungi maji.” Nao wakaijaza ile mitungi mpaka juu.
8 And he saith to them, Draw out now, and bear it to the master of the feast. And they bore it.
Kisha akawaambia, “Sasa choteni hayo maji kidogo, mpelekeeni mkuu wa meza.” Hivyo wakachota, wakampelekea.
9 But when the master of the feast tasted the water that had been made wine, not knowing whence it was, but the servants who drew the water knew, he called the bridegroom
Yule mkuu wa meza akayaonja yale maji ambayo yalikuwa yamebadilika kuwa divai. Hakujua divai hiyo ilikotoka ingawa wale watumishi waliochota yale maji wao walifahamu. Basi akamwita bwana arusi kando
10 and said to him, Every man setteth on the good wine first, and when men have drunk freely, that which is worse. Thou hast kept the good wine until now.
akamwambia, “Watu wote hutoa kwanza divai nzuri, kisha huleta ile divai hafifu wageni wakisha kunywa vya kutosha, lakini wewe umeiweka ile nzuri kupita zote mpaka sasa.”
11 This beginning of the signs Jesus made in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
Huu, ndio uliokuwa muujiza wa kwanza Yesu aliofanya Kana ya Galilaya. Hivyo Yesu alidhihirisha utukufu wake, nao wanafunzi wake wakamwamini.
12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples; and they abode there not many days.
Baada ya hayo, Yesu pamoja na mama yake, ndugu zake na wanafunzi wake, walishuka mpaka Kapernaumu, wakakaa huko siku chache.
13 And the passover of the Jews was near; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Ilipokaribia wakati wa Pasaka ya Wayahudi, Yesu alipanda kwenda Yerusalemu.
14 And he found in the temple those who sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money-changers sitting.
Huko Hekaluni aliwakuta watu wakiuza ngʼombe, kondoo na njiwa, nao wengine walikuwa wameketi mezani wakibadili fedha.
15 And having made a scourge of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and poured out the money of the exchangers, and overthrew the tables;
Akatengeneza mjeledi kutokana na kamba, akawafukuza wote kutoka kwenye eneo la Hekalu, pamoja na kondoo na ngʼombe. Akazipindua meza za wale wabadili fedha na kuzimwaga fedha zao.
16 and said to those who sold the doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.
Akawaambia wale waliokuwa wakiuza njiwa, “Waondoeni hapa! Mnathubutuje kuifanya nyumba ya Baba yangu kuwa mahali pa biashara?”
17 His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for thy house will consume me.”
Wanafunzi wake wakakumbuka kuwa imeandikwa: “Wivu wa nyumba yako utanila.”
18 The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign dost thou show us, seeing thou doest these things?
Ndipo Wayahudi wakamuuliza, “Unaweza kutuonyesha ishara gani ili kuthibitisha mamlaka uliyo nayo ya kufanya mambo haya?”
19 Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
Yesu akawajibu, “Libomoeni hili Hekalu, nami nitalijenga tena kwa siku tatu!”
20 Then said the Jews, Forty-six years was this temple in building; and wilt thou raise it up in three days?
Wale Wayahudi wakamjibu, “Hekalu hili lilijengwa kwa muda wa miaka arobaini na sita, nawe wasema utalijenga kwa siku tatu?”
21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.
Lakini yeye Hekalu alilozungumzia ni mwili wake.
22 When therefore he had risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken.
Baada ya kufufuliwa kutoka kwa wafu, wanafunzi wake wakakumbuka yale aliyokuwa amesema. Ndipo wakayaamini Maandiko na yale maneno Yesu aliyokuwa amesema.
23 And when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, at the feast, many believed in his name, when they saw his signs which he wrought.
Ikawa Yesu alipokuwa Yerusalemu kwenye Sikukuu ya Pasaka, watu wengi waliona ishara na miujiza aliyokuwa akifanya, wakaamini katika jina lake.
24 But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men;
Lakini Yesu hakujiaminisha kwao kwa sababu aliwajua wanadamu wote.
25 and had no need that any one should testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
Hakuhitaji ushuhuda wa mtu yeyote kuhusu mtu, kwa kuwa alijua yote yaliyokuwa moyoni mwa mtu.
