John 4
1 When therefore the Lord knew, that the Pharisees had heard—Jesus, more disciples, is making and immersing, than John, —
Erile Morena a itse gore Bafarasai ba utlwile kaga bontsintsi jo bo yang kwa go ene go na le kwa go Johane go kolobediwa le go nna barutwa ba gagwe
2 although indeed, Jesus himself, was not immersing, but his disciples,
(ntswa Jesu ene ka boene a ne a sa ba kolobetse, go ne go kolobetsa barutwa ba gagwe).
3 he left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
A tswa mo Judea mme a boela kwa kgaolong ya Galalea.
4 Now he must needs pass through Samaria.
Mme a tshwanelwa ke go ralala Samaria a le mo tseleng.
5 He cometh, therefore, unto a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground which Jacob gave unto Joseph his son.
Mme erile motshegare wa sethoboloko, fa a atamela motse wa Sikara, a goroga fa Sedibeng sa ga Jakobe se se neng se le mo setsheng sa lefatshe se Jakobe a neng a se neile morwawe Josefe.
6 Now Jacob’s fountain was there. Jesus, therefore, having become toil-worn with the journey, was sitting thus, upon the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.
Jesu o ne a lapisitswe ke go tsamaya mo mogoteng wa letsatsi sekgala se se leele, hong a nna fa thoko ga sediba a lapile thata.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith unto her—Give me to drink!
Mme ka bofefo ga tla mosadi wa Mosamaria a tla go ga metsi, mme Jesu a mo kopa metse a go nwa.
8 for, his disciples, had gone away into the city, that, food, they might buy.
O ne a le nosi ka nako eo, barutwa ba gagwe ba ile kwa motseng go reka dijo.
9 The Samaritan woman, therefore, saith unto him—How dost, thou, being, a Jew, ask to drink, of me, who am, a Samaritan woman? [for, Jews, have no dealings with Samaritans.]
Mosadi a gakgamala gore a Mojuta o ka kopa “Mosamaria yo o nyatsegang” sengwe, ka tlwaelo ba ne ba sa buisanye! Mme a bua kaga selo se le Jesu.
10 Jesus answered, and said unto her—If thou hadst known the free gift of God, and who it is that is saying unto thee, Give me to drink, thou, wouldst have asked him, and he would have given thee living water.
Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Fa o ne o itsile gore Modimo o go tsholetse neo e e gakgamatsang jang, le gore ke nna mang, o kabo o nkopile metse a botshelo!”
11 She saith unto him—Sir! not even a bucket, hast thou, —and, the well, is, deep: —Whence, then, hast thou the living water?
Mme mosadi a re, “Ga o na segelelo, le gone sediba se se boteng thata! O ne o tlaa tsaya kae metse a botshelo?
12 Art, thou, greater than, our father Jacob, who gave us the well, —and, himself, out of it drank, and his sons, and his flocks?
Kwa ntle ga moo, a o mogolo mo go rraarona mogolwagolwane Jakobe? O ka mpha metse a a botoka jang go na le a Jakobe le bo morwawe le dikgomo tsa bone di a noleng ka boitumelo?”
13 Jesus answered, and said unto her—Whosoever drinketh of this water, will thirst, again;
Jesu a fetola a re, “Batho ba tshwarwa ke lenyora ka bofefo fa ba sena go nwa metsi a.
15 The woman saith unto him—Sir! give me this water, that I thirst not, neither be coming hither to draw.
Mme mosadi a mo raya a re, “Tswee-tswee rra, nnosa metsi ao! Hong ga ke na go tlhola ke nyorwa gape, le fa e le go tsamaya mosepele o moleele o wa go tla go ga metse fano malatsi otlhe.”
16 He saith unto her—Go, call thy husband, and come hither!
Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Tsamaya o ye go tla le monna wa gago.”
17 The woman answered, and said [unto him]—I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her—Well, saidst thou, A husband, I have not;
Mme mosadi a mo fetola a re, “Kana ga ke a nyalwa.”
18 for, five husbands, thou hast had, —and, now, he whom thou hast, is not thy, husband: This true thing, hast thou spoken.
Jesu a re, “O bua boammaaruri Ka gore o kile wa nna le banna ba le batlhano, mme monna yo o nnang le ene gompieno jaana ga a go nyala.”
19 The woman saith unto him—Sir! I perceive that, a prophet, art, thou: —
Mme mosadi a mo raya a re, “Rra, o tshwa-netse wa bo o le moporofiti.
20 Our fathers, in this mountain, worshipped; and, ye, say, that, in Jerusalem, is the place, where, to worship, it behoveth.
Mme he, mpolelela, ke eng fa lona Bajuta lo re Jerusalema ke lone fela lefelo la kobamelo-Modimo, fa rona Basamaria re re ke fano [mo Thabeng ya Gerasime] kwa borraa-rona mogolwagolwane ba neng ba obamela teng?”
21 Jesus saith unto her—Believe me, woman! There cometh an hour, when, neither in this mountain, nor yet in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father.
Jesu a fetola a re, “Nako e e tla, mma, fa re tlaa bong re sa tlhole re tshwenyega ka gore a re obamela Rara fano kgotsa mo Jerusalema.
22 Ye, worship, that which ye know not; We, worship, that which we know; because, salvation, is, of the Jews.
Gonne ga go mo go reng re obamela kae, fa e se gore re obama jang, ebong gore a kobamelo ya rona ke ya semowa le ya boammaaruri? A re na le thuso ya Mowa O O Boitshepo?
23 But there cometh an hour, and, now, is, —when, the real worshippers, shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for, even the Father, is seeking, such as these, as his worshippers.
Gonne Modimo ke Mowa, jalo re tshwanetse go nna le thuso ya one go o obamela jaaka re tshwanetse. Rara o batla one mofuta o wa kobamelo mo go rona.
24 God is, spirit; and, they that worship him, in spirit and truth, must needs worship.
Mme lona Basamaria lo itse go se kae fela kaga gagwe, lo obamela ka bofofu fa rona Bajuta re itse gotlhe kaga gagwe, gonne poloko e tla mo lefatsheng ka Bajuta.”
25 The woman saith unto him—I know that, Messiah, cometh, who is called Christ, —Whensoever, he, shall come, he will tell us, everything.
Mosadi a re, “Go siame, le fa go ntse jalo ke itse gore Mesia o tlaa tla, yo ba mmitsang Keresete, mme fa a tla o tlaa re tlhalosetsa sengwe le sengwe.”
26 Jesus saith unto her—I, that speak unto thee, am he.
Hong Jesu a mo raya a re, “Ke nna Mesia!”
27 And, hereupon, came his disciples, and they began to marvel, that, with a woman, he was talking. No one, however, said—What seekest thou? or—Why talkest thou with her?
Mme erile gone foo fela barutwa ba gagwe ba goroga. Ba gakgamalela go mmona a bua le mosadi, mme le fa e le ope wa bone a se ka a mmotsa gore ke eng.
28 The woman, therefore, left her water-vessel, and went away into the city, and saith unto the men—
Mme mosadi a tsamaya a tlogela nkgwana ya gagwe ya metsi fa thoko ga sediba a boela kwa motseng mme a feta a bolelela mongwe le mongwe jaana,
29 Come! see a man, that told me all things that ever I did: Can, this, be, the Christ?
“Tlang lo bone monna yo o mpoleletseng sengwe le sengwe se ke neng ke tshela ke se dira! A e ka ne e le ene Mesia?”
30 They came forth out of the city, and were coming unto him.
Mme batho ba motse ba tla ba tsositse modumo ba ya go mmona.
31 In the meantime, the disciples were requesting him, saying—Rabbi! eat.
Erile ka lobakanyana fa mosadi a sa ntse a ile go bolelela batho kwa motseng, barutwa ba sala ba leka go kgothaletsa Jesu go ja.
32 But, he, said unto them—I, have, food, to eat, of which, ye, know not.
Mme Jesu a ba fetola a re, “Nnyaa, ke na le dijo tse lo sa itseng kaga tsone.”
33 The disciples, therefore, began to say, one to another—Hath anyone brought him, to eat?
Mme barutwa ba botsanya ba re, “Yo o di mo lereditseng ke mang?”
34 Jesus saith unto them—My food, is, that I should do the will of him that sent me, and complete, his work.
Mme Jesu a ba tlhalosetsa jaana a re: “Dikotla tsa me di mo go direng go rata ga Modimo o o nthomileng, le mo go fetseng tiro ya One.
35 Are, ye, not saying—Yet, a fourmonth, it is, and, the harvest, cometh? Lo! I say unto you—Lift up your eyes, and gaze at the fields, —that, white, are they unto, harvest. Already,
A lo gopola gore tiro ya thobo ga e na go simolola go fitlhelela selemo se fela mo dikgweding tse nne go simolola jaanong jaana? Lebang mo tikologong! Masimo a magolo a e leng mewa ya batho, a simolola go butswa mo tikologong yotlhe ya rona, ebile a setse a ka rojwa.
36 he that reapeth, receiveth, a reward, and gathereth fruit unto life age-abiding; that, he that soweth, together may rejoice, with him that reapeth. (aiōnios g166)
Barobi ba tlaa duelwa tuelo e ntle, mme ba tlaa phuthela mewa e e bolokwang mo difalaneng tsa legodimo! Ke boitumelo jo bogolo jang jo bo letileng mojadi le morobi! (aiōnios g166)
37 For, herein, doth the saying, hold good, —One, is the sower, and, another, is the reaper.
Gonne ke boammaaruri gore mongwe o a jala mme yo mongwe o a roba.
38 I, sent you forth, to be reaping that whereon, ye, have not toiled: Others, have toiled, and, ye, into their toil, have entered.
Ke lo romile go roba kwa lo sa jalang teng; ba bangwe ba dirile tiro ya bone mme lona lwa amogela thobo.”
39 And, out of that city, many, believed on him—of the Samaritans, —by reason of the word of the woman in bearing witness—He told me all things that ever I did.
Batho ba le bantsi ba ba tswang mo motseng wa Samarea, ba dumela gore ke Mesia ka ntlha ya polelo ya mosadi e e reng, “O mpoleletse sengwe le sengwe se ke neng ke aga ke se dira!”
40 When, therefore, the Samaritans came unto him, they went on to request him to abide with them; and he abode there two days.
Erile ba ya go mmona kwa sedibeng, ba feta ba mo kopa go ya go nna mo motseng wa bone; mme a dira jalo, a nna malatsi a le mabedi,
41 And, many more, believed by reason of his discourse;
a a neng a lekanye ba le bantsi go dumela mo go ene ba sena go mo utlwa.
42 and, unto the woman, began to say—No longer, by reason of thy talk, do we believe; for, we ourselves, have heard, and know that, This One, is, in truth, the Saviour of the world.
Mme ba raya mosadi ba re, “Jaanong re a dumela gonne re mo ikutlwetse, e seng fela ka ntlha ya se wena o se re boleletseng. Ke ene tota Mmoloki wa lefatshe.”
43 But, after the two days, he went forth from thence, into Galilee.
Erile a sena go nna malatsi a mabedi, a ya Galalea
44 For, Jesus himself, bare witness, that, a prophet, in his own fatherland, hath not, honour.
fela jaaka a ne a tle a re, “Moporofiti o tlotlega gongwe le gongwe fa e se fela mo lefatsheng la ga gabo!”
45 So, when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed him, having seen, all things, whatsoever he had done in Jerusalem during the feast; for, they also, went unto the feast.
Mme Bagalalea ba feta ba mo amogela sentle ka diatla tsoo pedi gonne ba ne ba le mo Jerusalema ka moletlo wa Tlolaganyo le gore ba ne ba bonye dikgakgamatso dingwe tsa gagwe.
46 So he came again into Cana of Galilee, where he had made the water, wine. And there was a certain courtier, whose son was sick, in Capernaum.
Mo lobakeng lwa loeto lwa gagwe a raletse Galalea, o ne a goroga mo motseng wa Kana kwa a neng a kile a fetola metsi mofine teng. Erile a sale teng koo, monna mongwe mo motseng wa Kaperenama, yo e neng e le kgosana, yo morwawe o neng a lwala thata,
47 The same, hearing that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, came away unto him, and began requesting him, that he would come down and heal his son; for he was on the point of dying.
a utlwa gore Jesu o boile kwa Judea jaanong o mo Galalea. Monna yo a ya kwa Kana, a fitlhela Jesu, mme a kopa gore a ye le ene kwa Kaperenama go ya go fodisa morwawe yo a neng a le fa gare ga loso le botshelo.
48 Jesus therefore said unto him—Except, signs and wonders, ye see, in nowise will ye believe.
Mme Jesu a mmotsa a re, “A ga gona ope wa lona yo o dumelang mo go nna fa e se ke tswelela ka go dira dikgakgamatso?”
49 The courtier saith unto him—Sir! come down, ere my child die!
Kgosana ya mo rapela ya re, “Rra, tswee-tswee itlhaganele pele ngwanake o a swa.”
50 Jesus saith unto him—Be going thy way: thy son, liveth! And the man believed in the word which Jesus spake to him, and at once went his way.
Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Boela kwa gae. Morwao o fodile!” Mme kgosana ya dumela Jesu ya boela kwa gae.
51 And, when he was even now going down, his servants, met him, saying, that, his boy, was living.
Mme ya re fa a sale mo tseleng, bangwe ba batlhanka ba gagwe ba mo rakantsha ka mafoko a a reng sengwe le sengwe se siame, morwao o namologile mo bolwetseng.
52 So he enquired the hour, from them, when he began, to amend. They said, therefore, unto him—Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him.
A ba botsa gore mosimanyana o sale a simolola go ikutlwa botoka leng? Mme ba mo fetola ba re, “Erile maabane mo tshokologong nako e ka nna ya bongwe, letshoroma la gagwe la bo le nyelela!”
53 So the father took note that it was, in that hour, wherein Jesus said unto him—Thy son, liveth! and he believed, he, and all his house.
Hong rraagwe a lemoga gore e ne e le ka lone lobaka lo Jesu a neng a mo raya a re, “Morwao o fodile.” Mme Kgosana le bantlo ya gagwe ba dumela gore Jesu ke Mesia.
54 Now, this again, as, a second sign, Jesus did, after coming out of Judaea into Galilee.
Se e ne e le kgakgamatso ya bobedi mo Ga-lalea morago ga go boa ga ga Jesu kwa Judea.
