John 20
1 Now on the first [day] of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, while it was yet dark, unto the tomb, and seeth the stone taken away from the tomb.
Alfajiri na mapema siku ya kwanza ya juma, kulipokuwa kungali giza bado, Maria Magdalene alikwenda kaburini na kukuta lile jiwe limeondolewa penye ingilio.
2 She runneth therefore, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.
Hivyo akaja akikimbia kwa Simoni Petro pamoja na yule mwanafunzi mwingine ambaye Yesu alimpenda, na kusema, “Wamemwondoa Bwana kaburini, na hatujui walikomweka!”
3 Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and they went toward the tomb.
Petro na yule mwanafunzi mwingine wakaondoka mara kuelekea kaburini.
4 And they ran both together: and the other disciple outran Peter, and came first to the tomb;
Wote wawili walikuwa wanakimbia, lakini yule mwanafunzi mwingine akakimbia mbio zaidi kuliko Petro, akatangulia kufika kaburini.
5 and stooping and looking in, he seeth the linen cloths lying; yet entered he not in.
Alipofika, akainama na kuchungulia mle kaburini, akaona vile vitambaa vya kitani mle ndani, lakini hakuingia.
6 Simon Peter therefore also cometh, following him, and entered into the tomb; and he beholdeth the linen cloths lying,
Ndipo Simoni Petro akaja, akimfuata nyuma akaenda moja kwa moja hadi ndani ya kaburi. Naye akaona vile vitambaa vya ile sanda vikiwa pale chini
7 and the napkin, that was upon his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but rolled up in a place by itself.
na kile kitambaa kilichokuwa kichwani mwa Yesu. Kitambaa hicho kilikuwa kimekunjwa mahali pa peke yake, mbali na vile vitambaa vya kitani vya ile sanda.
8 Then entered in therefore the other disciple also, which came first to the tomb, and he saw, and believed.
Kisha yule mwanafunzi aliyetangulia kufika kaburini naye akaingia ndani, akaona, akaamini,
9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
(kwa kuwa mpaka wakati huo walikuwa bado hawajaelewa kutoka Maandiko kwamba ilikuwa lazima Yesu afufuke kutoka kwa wafu).
10 So the disciples went away again unto their own home.
Kisha hao wanafunzi wakaondoka wakarudi nyumbani kwao.
11 But Mary was standing without at the tomb weeping: so, as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb;
Lakini Maria Magdalene akasimama nje ya kaburi akilia. Alipokuwa akilia, akainama, kuchungulia mle kaburini,
12 and she beholdeth two angels in white sitting, one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
naye akaona malaika wawili wamevaa mavazi meupe, wameketi pale mwili wa Yesu ulipokuwa umelazwa, mmoja upande wa kichwani na mwingine upande wa miguuni.
13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.
Wakamuuliza Maria, “Mwanamke, mbona unalia?” Akawaambia, “Nalia kwa kuwa wamemchukua Bwana wangu na sijui walikomweka.”
14 When she had thus said, she turned herself back, and beholdeth Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
Baada ya kusema hayo, akageuka, akamwona Yesu amesimama, lakini hakumtambua.
15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou hast borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
Yesu akamwambia, “Mwanamke, mbona unalia? Unamtafuta nani?” Maria akidhani ya kuwa aliyekuwa anaongea naye ni mtunza bustani, kwa hiyo akamwambia, “Bwana, kama ni wewe umemchukua, tafadhali nionyeshe ulikomweka, nami nitamchukua.”
16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turneth herself, and saith unto him in Hebrew, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
Yesu akamwita, “Maria!” Ndipo Maria akamgeukia Yesu na kusema naye kwa Kiebrania, “Rabboni!” (maana yake Mwalimu).
17 Jesus saith to her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended unto the Father: but go unto my brethren, and say to them, I ascend unto my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.
Yesu akamwambia, “Usinishike, kwa maana sijapaa kwenda kwa Baba. Lakini nenda kwa ndugu zangu ukawaambie, ‘Ninapaa kwenda kwa Baba yangu ambaye ni Baba yenu, kwa Mungu wangu ambaye ni Mungu wenu.’”
18 Mary Magdalene cometh and telleth the disciples, I have seen the Lord; and [how that] he had said these things unto her.
Kwa hiyo Maria Magdalene akaenda kuwatangazia wanafunzi wa Yesu, akisema, “Nimemwona Bwana!” Naye akawaambia kwamba Yesu alikuwa amemweleza mambo hayo yote.
19 When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first [day] of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.
Ikawa jioni ya ile siku ya kwanza ya juma, wanafunzi wake walikuwa pamoja, milango ikiwa imefungwa kwa kuwaogopa Wayahudi. Naye Yesu aliwatokea, akasimama katikati yao, akasema, “Amani iwe nanyi!”
20 And when he had said this, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord.
Baada ya kusema haya, akawaonyesha mikono yake na ubavu wake. Wanafunzi wake wakafurahi sana walipomwona Bwana.
21 Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace [be] unto you: as the Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
Yesu akawaambia tena, “Amani iwe nanyi! Kama vile Baba alivyonituma mimi, mimi nami nawatuma ninyi.”
22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
Naye alipokwisha kusema haya, akawavuvia, akawaambia, “Pokeeni Roho Mtakatifu.
23 whose soever sins ye forgive, they are forgiven unto them; whose soever [sins] ye retain, they are retained.
Mkimwondolea mtu yeyote dhambi zake, zitaondolewa, na yeyote msiyemwondolea dhambi zake, hazitaondolewa.”
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
Lakini Tomaso, aliyeitwa Didimasi, yaani Pacha, mmoja wa wale kumi na wawili, hakuwa pamoja nao Yesu alipokuja.
25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.
Hivyo wale wanafunzi wengine wakamwambia, “Tumemwona Bwana.” Lakini yeye akawaambia, “Nisipoona zile alama za misumari mikononi mwake, na kuweka kidole changu kwenye hizo alama za misumari na mkono wangu ubavuni mwake, sitaamini.”
26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them. Jesus cometh, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace [be] unto you.
Baada ya siku nane, wanafunzi wake walikuwa tena pamoja ndani ya nyumba, naye Tomaso alikuwa pamoja nao. Ndipo Yesu akaja milango ikiwa imefungwa na kusimama katikati yao akasema, “Amani iwe nanyi.”
27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and see my hands; and reach [hither] thy hand, and put it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.
Kisha akamwambia Tomaso, “Weka kidole chako hapa na uone mikono yangu, nyoosha mkono wako uguse ubavuni mwangu. Usiwe na shaka, bali uamini tu.”
28 Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
Tomaso akamwambia, “Bwana wangu na Mungu wangu!”
29 Jesus saith unto him, Because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed [are] they that have not seen, and [yet] have believed.
Yesu akamwambia, “Umeamini kwa kuwa umeniona? Wamebarikiwa wale ambao hawajaona lakini wameamini.”
30 Many other signs therefore did Jesus in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book:
Yesu alifanya miujiza mingine mingi mbele za wanafunzi wake, ambayo haikuandikwa katika kitabu hiki.
31 but these are written, that ye may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye may have life in his name.
Lakini haya yameandikwa ili mweze kuamini ya kuwa Yesu ndiye Kristo, Mwana wa Mungu, na kwa kumwamini mpate uzima katika jina lake.
