John 4
1 When therefore Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
Vafalisayu vayuwini kuvya Yesu avi mukupata vawuliwa vamahele na kuvabatiza kuliku Yohani.
2 (though Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples, )
Ndi chakaka kuvya Yesu mwene abatiza lepi, nambu vawuliwa vaki ndi vevabatizayi vandu.
3 he left Judaea, and went again to Galilee.
Hinu Yesu peagayuwini genago, akawuka ku Yudea na kuwuya ku Galilaya.
4 And he must necessarily pass through Samaria.
Mulugendu lwenulo yamganili kuvedukila kumulima wa Samaliya.
5 He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the piece of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
Ndi peahikili muji umonga pamulima wa Samaliya weukemiwa Sikali, papipi na mgunda wa Yakobo weampelilli mwana waki, mweikemiwa Yosefu.
6 And Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with the journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
Pandu penapo pavi na chiliva cha Yakobo, na Yesu ndava ya kutotokela na lugendu, akatama pamuhana ya chiliva. Yavili ngati lukumbi lwa muhi.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.
Kangi, akabwela mdala mmonga mkolonjinji wa ku Samaliya kunega manji. Yesu akamjovela, “Nipelayi manji ninywayi.”
8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
Lukumbi lwenulo vawuliwa vaki vahambili kumuji kugula chakulya.
9 The Samaritan woman saith to him, How is it that thou, who art a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
Nambu mdala yula akamjovela, “Veve wa Myawudi, na nene namdala msamaliya! Uhotola wuli kuniyupa manji?” Muni Vayawudi na Vasamaliya katu vitama lepi pamonga.
10 Jesus answered and said to her, If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
Yesu akamyangula, “Ngati kuvya umanyayi chindu chechiwusiwa na Chapanga ndi yani mweakukujovela, ‘nipelayi manji ninywai,’ Ngawamali, kumuyupa manji gegileta wumi.”
11 The woman saith to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Whence hast thou the living water?
Mdala yula akamjovela, “Bambu, veve wangali ndeve ya kunegela manji, na chiliva chinyoliki. Ugapata koki manji gegavi na wumi?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
Wu, veve ukujikita wa mkulu kuliku dadi witu Yakobo? Mwene ndi mweatipelili chiliva ichi, mwene na vana vaki pamonga na mifuya yaki vanywayi manji ga chiliva ichi.”
13 Jesus answered and said to her, Every one that drinketh of this water, will thirst again;
Yesu akamyangula, “Yoyoha mweinywa manji aga yati ivya na njota kavili.
15 The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
Mdala mwenuyo akamjovela, “Bambu, unipela manji genago muni nikotoka kuvya na njota kavili na nikotoka kubwela penapa kunega manji.”
16 He saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
Yesu akamjovela, “Uhamba ukamkemela mngwana waku, ubwela nayu penapa.”
17 The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidst well, that thou hast no husband.
Mdala yula akayangula, “Nene nangali mgosi.” Yesu akamjovela “Uyangwili chakaka, wangali mgosi.
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband; in this thou hast spoken truly.
Muni wavi na vagosi mhanu, na mgosi mweutama nayu hinu mgosi waku lepi. Penapo ujovili chakaka.”
19 The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
Mdala yula akamjovela, “Bambu, niwona kuvya veve wa mlota wa Chapanga.
20 Our fathers worshipped on this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
Vagogo vitu vamufugamila Chapanga kuchitumbi ichi, nambu nyenye mwijova kuvya pandu pa kumuyupila Chapanga ndi ku Yelusalemu.”
21 Jesus saith to her, Believe me, woman, the hour is coming, when ye shall neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.
Yesu akamjovela “Unisadika chenijova lwalabwela lukumbi nakumfugamila Dadi, panani ya chitumbi amala ku Yelusalemu kula.
22 Ye worship that which ye know not; we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
Nyenye Vasamaliya mukumfugamila yula mwangammanya, nambu tete tikumfugamila yula mwetimumanyili, ndava muni usangula wihuma kwa Vayawudi.
23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for such worshippers the Father seeketh.
Nambu lukumbi lubwela, kangi lumali kubwela ndi vala vandu vevakumfugamila kwa uchakaka, yati vamfugamila Dadi mukulongoswa na Mpungu Msopi na chakaka. Muni dadi akuvagana vandu vamfugamila chenicho.
24 God is a spirit; and they who worship must worship in spirit and in truth.
Chapanga ndi Mpungu na vandu vevamfugamila yikuvagana vamfugamila Dadi mukulongoswa na Mpungu Msopi na kuumanya uchakaka.”
25 The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh (who is called Christ); when he hath come, he will tell us all things.
Mdala yula akamjovela, “Nimanyili kuvya Msangula mweikemiwa Kilisitu ibwela. Peibwela yati akutimanyisa tete kila chindu.”
26 Jesus saith to her, I who speak to thee am he.
Yesu akamjovela, “Nene mwenilongela na veve ndi mwene.”
27 And upon this his disciples came, and marveled that he was talking with a woman. Yet no one said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?
Bahapo vawuliwa vaki vakawuya, na kukangasa neju pavamuweni ilongela na mdala. Nambu kawaka mundu mweajovili, “Ugana kyani?” Amala, “Ndava kyani wilongela na mdala?”
28 The woman then left her water-pot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,
Hinu, mdala yula akachileka chihulu chaki palapala na kuhamba kumuji na kuvajovela vandu,
29 Come, see a man who told me all things which I have done. Is this the Christ?
“Mbwela mukamlola mundu mweanijovili mambu goha genikitili! Wu, yihotoleka kuvya ndi Kilisitu Msangula?”
30 They went out of the city, and came to him.
Vandu vakawuka kumuji na kumuhambila Yesu.
31 In the mean while the disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
Lukumbi lwenulo vawuliwa vaki vamyupili neju Yesu, “Muwula, ulyayi chakulya.”
32 But he said to them, I have food to eat that ye know not of.
Nambu Yesu akavajovela, “Nene nivii nachu chakulya chemwangachimanya nyenye.”
33 The disciples therefore said to one another, Hath any one brought him anything to eat?
Vawuliwa vaki vakakotana vene kwa vene, “Wu, avi mundu mweamletili chakulya?”
34 Jesus saith to them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
Yesu akavajovela, “Chakulya changu ndi kuhenga geigana yula mweanitumili na kumalakisa lihengu laki.
35 Do ye not say, There are yet four months, and the harvest cometh? Lo! I say to you, lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest.
Nyenye mwijova, ‘Yakona miheyi mcheche ndu na lukumbi lwa kubena yati lubwela!’ Nambu nene nikuvajovela, myinula mihu ginu mlola migunda, mabenu gakangili giganikiwa kubenwa!
36 Already is the reaper receiving wages, and gathering fruit unto everlasting life; that both the sower and the reaper may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
Yula mweibena ipokela luhuna lweluganikiwa kupewa kwa lihengu laki, na kuyola mabenu ndava ya wumi wa magono goha wangali mwishu, muni mweimija na mbenaji vihekelela pamonga. (aiōnios g166)
37 And herein is fulfilled the true saying, One soweth, and another reapeth.
Vandu pevijova kuvya ‘Mundu mmonga imija na mundu yungi ibena, luhumu ulu ndi chakaka.’
38 I have sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored. Others have labored, and ye have entered into their labor.
Nene navatumili nyenye mkabena changali lihengu, vangi vahengili lihengu, nambu nyenye mupatili utangatila ndava ya lihengu lavi.”
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in him because of the words of the woman, who testified, He told me all things which I have done.
Vasamaliya vamahele pachijiji chila vamsadiki Yesu ndava ya malovi geajovili mau yula, “Anijovili mambu goha genihengili.”
40 When therefore the Samaritans came to him, they besought him to remain with them; and he remained there two days.
Vasamaliya vamhambili Yesu vakamuyupa neju atama navu, namwene akatama navu magono gavili.
41 And many more believed on account of his word;
Vandu vamahele, vamsadiki Yesu ndava ya malovi gaki.
42 and said to the woman, No longer do we believe on account of what thou hast told us; for we have ourselves heard him, and know that this is in truth the Saviour of the world.
Vakamjovela mdala yula, “Tete tisadika, nambu lepi ndava ya malovi gaku, muni tavete tiyuwini na timanyili kuvya mwenuyu ndi chakaka Msangula wa vandu va pamulima.”
43 And after the two days he went from that place into Galilee.
Pagamaliki magono gavili, Yesu akawuka penapo, akahamba ku Galilaya.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
Muni Yesu mwene ajovili hotohoto kuvya, “Mlota wa Chapanga nakuyidakiliwa pamulima waki.”
45 When therefore he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also went to the feast.
Hinu peahikili ku Galilaya, Vagalilaya vamahele vampokili. Ndava vagawene goha geahengili ku Yelusalemu, muni navene vavi kukoko kumselebuko wa Pasaka.
46 So he came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick, at Capernaum.
Kangi Yesu ahikili kavili ku Kana, kumuji wa Galilaya, pandu peang'anamwisi manji kuvya divayi. Kwenuko kwavi na chilongosi mmonga wa chinkosi mweavi na mwana waki mtamu ku Kapelanaumu.
47 He, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to him, and asked him to go down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
Chilongosi yula peayuwini kuvya Yesu ahumili ku Yudea na kuhika ku Galilaya, akamhambila na kumuyupa ahamba akamlamisa mwana waki mweavi mulung'olelu.
48 Then Jesus said to him, Unless ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
Yesu akamjovela, “Nyenye changalola ulangisu na gachinamtiti katu mwisadika lepi!”
49 The nobleman saith to him, Sir, come down before my child die.
Yula chilongosi akamjovela, “Bambu, chondi tihamba kwakona mwana vangu kufwa.”
50 Jesus saith to him, Go; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and went away.
Yesu akamjovela, “Uhambayi, mwana waku yati ilama.” Mundu yula akasadika malovi ga Yesu, akahamba.
51 And as he was now going down, the servants met him, and brought word that his child was living.
Peavi akona munjila akakonganeka na vatumisi vaki, vakamjovela kuvya mwana waku alamili!
52 Then he inquired of them the hour when he began to mend. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
Mwene akavakota lukumbi msongolo pealamili, vene vakamyangula, “Golo saa saba ya muhi, utamu wamuhumili.”
53 So the father knew that it was in the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is living. And he himself believed, and his whole house.
Dadi yula akamanya kuvya lwavi lukumbi lulolo, Yesu peamjovili “Mwana waku yati ilama.” Penapo mwene pamonga na valongo vaki vakamsadika Yesu.
54 This again, a second sign, Jesus wrought, when he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.
Wenuwu wavi ulangisu wa kukangasa weahengili Yesu peawukili ku Yudea kuhamba ku Galilaya.
