< John 21 >

1 After these things he manifested himself again to the disciples at the lake of Tiberias. And he manifested himself in this manner.
Lani ń pendi, Jesu go legdi ki waani o bá o ŋɔdkaaba Tiberiyad mɔgli kunga. Wan den waani o bá maama n ne.
2 There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana of Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.
Siimɔn Pieri, Toma, ban yi yua Didim Natanayel, Galile nni Kaana yua, Sebede bijaba yeni Jesu ŋɔdkaaba bilie den taani ki ye
3 Simon Peter saith to them, I am going a fishing. They say to him, We also will go with thee. They set out and went into the boat, and on that night caught nothing.
Siimɔn Pieri ń maadi ba: “N ba gedi u jankpaanu.” Ban yedi o: “Ti mo ba yegi yeni a ki gedi.” Ban ñ ki kua ku ŋadgu. Li daali, ñiamungu baa cuo pu.
4 But when the morning was coming on, Jesus stood on the shore; but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
Lan fandi, ke Jesu ye gbangbanli li jaali po; ama ke bi ŋɔdkaaba ki bani ke li tie wani Jesu i.
5 Then Jesus saith to them, Children, have ye any fish? They answered him, No.
Jesu ń maadi ba: «A bila, i ki pia bonjekaali i? Ban jiini o: “n n “
6 And he said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye will find. And they cast it, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of the fishes.
Wan maadi ba: «Lu mani i taalu ku ŋadgu jienu po, i ba cuo.» Ban lu nani wan maadi maama, ki ji gbali mi dadima, kelima i jami den yabdi.
7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith to Peter, It is the Lord. Simon Peter therefore, hearing that it was the Lord, girded on his outer garment, for he had on nothing but his under one, and threw himself into the lake.
Jesu ń den ŋanbi ki bua ya ŋɔdkaa ń maadi Pieri: O Diedo i! Siimɔn Pieri ń bandi ke li tie O Diedo, wan la o liadli, ki ñagni gbanñagdigu, kelima o den ye benbili i. ki baa mi ñima nni
8 And the other disciples came in the boat, (for they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits, ) dragging the net with the fishes.
Ya ŋɔdkaaba n sieni ń nagni yeni ku ŋadgu, ki dadi u taalu ke u gbie yeni i jami, kelima bani yeni li gbangbanli ji den tie nani nuukpanduna kobilie yeni.
9 When therefore they had come to land, they see a fire of coals there, and a fish lying thereon, and bread.
Ban ñani ki doni gbangbanli, ke bi la ke a mukuana co, ke i jami ye o mu nni yeni kpanu.
10 Jesus saith to them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.
Jesu ń yedi ba: «Cua mani yeni yin cuo ya jami waamu na
11 Simon Peter therefore went on board, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty three; and though there were so many, the net was not broken.
Siimɔn Pieri ń kua ku ŋadgu nni, ki dadi ki duoni u taalu gbangbanli ke u gbie yeni kobga n piimu n jangbenga taa. Bá yeni i jami ń yabi maama kuli, u taalu naa den padi.
12 Jesus saith to them, Come and breakfast. But no one of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.
Jesu ń maadi ba: «Cua mani, ya di mani» Bá ŋɔdkaayendo ki paani o pali ki buali: “A tie ŋma i? “Ki nan bani ke li tie O Diedo i.
13 Jesus cometh and taketh the bread, and giveth them, and the fish likewise.
Jesu ń nagni, ki taa kpanu, ki teni ba; ki go teni ba i jami mo.
14 This is now the third time that Jesus manifested himself to his disciples, after he had risen from the dead.
Li ji den tie mi taama n yeni, ke Jesu dɔgdi o ŋɔdkaaba kani, ki waani o bá hali wan yiedi bi tinkpiba siiga.
15 So when they had breakfasted, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, lovest thou me more than these? He saith to him, Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Feed my lambs.
Ban dini ki gbeni, Jesu ń buali Siimɔn Pieri: «Jonaas bijua Siimɔn, a bua nni ki cie bi ne i? Wan jiini o: “Nn n Diedo, a bani ke n bua ŋa. “Jesu ń yedi o: «Ya kpaa n pebidi.»
16 He saith to him again a second time, Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? He saith to him, Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Tend my sheep.
Wan go yedi o mi liema: Jonaas bijua Siimɔn, a bua nni i? Pieri ń go jiini o: “Nn n Diedo, a bani ke n bua ŋa.” Jesu ń yedi o: «Ya kpaa n pañoe.»
17 He saith to him the third time, Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Feed my sheep.
Wan go buali o mi taama: Jonaas bijua Siimɔn, a bua nni i? Lan biidi Pieri pali yeni wan buali o taalma taa: “Abua nni i? Wan jiini o: “N Diedo, a bani bonli kuli, a bani ke n bua ŋa. Jesu ń yedi o: «Ya kpaa n pañoe, »
18 Truly, truly do I say to thee, when thou wast young, thou didst gird thyself, and walk whither thou wouldst; but when thou hast grown old, thou wilt stretch forth thy hands, and another will gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldst not.
«N maadi a i mɔmɔni, ŋan dá den tie naaciemo, a den yen ñagni a bá, u gbanñagdu, ki gedi ŋan bua naani. A ya ti ciandi, a ba ti tandi a nui, nitiano ń ñagni a, ki gedi yeni a, ŋan ki bua ke a gedi naani.»
19 This he said, signifying by what manner of death he was to glorify God. And having thus spoken, he saith to him, Follow me.
Jesu den maadi lani, ki bua wan waani Pieri ń ba ti kpe ya kuubuolu i, ki kpiagi U Tienu. Wan maadi yeni ki gbeni, ke o yedi o: «Ya ŋua nni, »
20 Peter, turning round, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following, —who also at supper leaned back on his breast, and said, Lord, who is he that betrayeth thee?—
Pieri ń gbagi, ki sua ke Jesu ń bua ya ŋɔdkaa yeni, mi yenjojiema di yogu, yua n den kpagni ki buali Jesu: “ŋma ba (kuadi) janbi a?” yeni ke o ŋua ba;
21 Peter, seeing him, saith to Jesus, Lord, and how will it be with him?
Wan la o, wan buali Jesu: “N Diedo, one mo te, o ba juodi ledi i?”
22 Jesus saith to him, If it be my will that he remain till I come, what is it to thee? Follow thou me.
Jesu ń yedi o: «N ya bua wan ya ye hali mi ba guani, li nan la ŋa le? Fini ń ya ŋua nni.
23 This report therefore went abroad among the brethren, that this disciple was not to die. And yet Jesus did not say to him, He will not die; but, If it be my will that he remain till I come, what is it to thee?
Lanyapo, laabaali den yadi li naataanli nni ke lanya ŋɔdkaa wani kan kpe. Ama Jesu den ki maadi ke o kan kpe ka; ama: “N ya bua wan ya ye hali mi ba guani te, li la ŋa le i?
24 This is the disciple who testifieth of these things, and hath written these things; and we know that his testimony is true.
Lan ya ŋɔdkaa n tie kasiedi ki wangi yi li bona po ne, o diani li bona. Ti bani ke o kasiedi tie mɔmɔni,
Jesu go tieni bontɔla boncianla. Li ya bi tie ke ti ba diani likuli, n ki tama ke ŋanduna kuli ba dagdi ki ga lan ya diani kuli.
