John 2
1 Two days later there was a wedding [celebration] in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. Jesus’ mother was there.
Baada ye nsiku zitatu, hwa ne harusi ohwo hukana ye Galilaya no nyina wakwe oYesu ali ohwo.
2 Jesus and [we] his disciples [were also there, because] we had been invited {someone had invited us} also.
O Yesu na bhanafunzi bhakwe bhali bhalihwe hu harusi.
3 When the guests had drunk all the wine [that was there], Jesus’ mother said to him, “The wine is all gone; [can you do something about that]?”
Lwabhamali shelwe ne divai, onyina wakwe oYesu abhozezye, “Sebhali ne divai.”
4 Jesus said to her, “Ma’am/Woman, (do not [tell] me [what to do]!/why do you [tell] me [what to do]?) [RHQ] It is not yet time [MTY] [to show] that I am [the Messiah by working miracles].”
O Yesu ajile, “Oshe oyo ego ane gahusu yenu ane? Ensiku zyane anezilisele afishile.”
5 Then Jesus’ mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you!”
Onyina wakwe abhabhozezye atumwa, “Hahonti hanzabhabhozye bhombaji.”
6 There were six [empty] stone jars there. The Jews [habitually put water in them] to use for washing things [to make them acceptable to God]. Each jar held (20 to 30 gallons/80 to 120 liters).
Eshi hwali ne nsonta sita zye mawe pala pabhele pa nawe munsikulukulu zya Yahudi, shila muntu ali noumemuwe nzio zibhele zitatu.
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water!” So they filled the jars to the brim.
O Yesu wabhawozya, “Zimemyi amenze ensonta mawe.” Bhamemeya bhamememya paka pamwanya.
8 Then he told them, “Now, ladle out some [of it] and take it (to the head waiter/to the master of ceremonies).” So the servants did that.
Nantele wabhabhozya bhala aboyieji, “Hashe esalezi mtulwe hwa bhabhahudumu agosi bhe meza.” Bhabhomba nanshi shalibhalajiziwe.
9 (The head waiter/The master of ceremonies) tasted the water, which had now become wine. He did not know where the wine had come from, but the servants who had ladled out the wine knew. [The wine was delicious]! So he called the bridegroom over,
Ohudumu ogosi abhonjile gala amenze gagali gabadilishe abhe divai, ila sagamenye hwagafumaga (ila atumwa watapaga amenze bhagamenye hwa gafumaga). Pamande bhakwizya omwene harusi na
10 and said to him, “Everyone [else] serves the best wine first. Then when the guests have drunk so much [that they cannot tell the difference], [they serve] the cheap wine. But you [have not done what others do]. You have kept the best wine until now!”
hubhozye, “Kila muntu ahwanda abhahudumile abhantu edivai ila sebhagamenye. Abhapele bhabhapiye edivai yasaga nyinza”
11 That was the first miracle that Jesus did. He did it in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. By doing it he showed how awesome he is, and as a result, [we] his disciples believed that he [truly was the Messiah].
Oujiza ogugwa hu Kana ya Galilaya, gwali gwa hwande gweshimanyilo uujiza gwa bhombile oYesu, akwinkule oumwamu wakwe, esho abhanafunzi bhakwe bhamwetesheye.
12 Jesus then went down to Capernaum [city] with his mother and [younger] brothers and [us] his disciples. We stayed there several days.
Baada yene, oYesu, onyina wakwe, aholo wakwe na wanafunzi bhakwe bhabhalile hunsi ye Kaperanaumu na bhakheye ohwo ensiku ndodo.
13 Later, when it was almost time for the Jewish Passover [celebration], Jesus [and we his disciples] went up to Jerusalem.
Epasaka ya Bhayahudi yali epalamiye afishe, oYesu abhalile hu Yelusalemu.
14 There, in the Temple [courtyard], he saw some men who were selling cattle, sheep, and pigeons [for sacrifices]. He also saw men who were sitting at tables, [making a big profit as they] gave people [Temple tax] coins in exchange for [their Roman] coins.
Abhajile bhabhakazya eng'ombe, engole ne njebha Mshibhanza. Nantele na wabadilisha fedha walikuwa wameketi ndani ya Hekalu.
15 Then Jesus made a whip from some cords and [used it to] chase out the sheep and cattle from the Temple [courtyard]. By overturning their tables he scattered the coins of the men who were exchanging them.
akatengeza mjeledi wenye vifundo, akawatoa wote walikuwemo katika hekalu, ikijumuisha ng'ombe na kondoo. Nabhavunzilanaga ehela na zigaluzanye emeza zyabho.
16 He said to those who were selling doves, “Take these doves away [from here]! Stop [defiling] my Father’s Temple [by] making it a market!”
Bhabhakazya enjebha abhabhozezye, “Efwi evintu vyenye bheshi hutali nepa, leshi abheshe ibhanza lya Ngolobhe pakazizye.”
17 Then [we] disciples remembered that these words had been written {that [someone/David] had written [these words]} [in the Scriptures prophesying what the Messiah would say]: “Others [PRS] will strongly oppose me because I greatly desire that [people respect] your Sacred Tent.”
Abhanafunzi bhakwe bhakomboha aje ehandihwe, “Owivu we nyumba yaho waindya.”
18 So [one of] the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied to him, “What miracle will you perform to show us that [you have authority from God] to do these things?”
Agosi bheshi Yahudi bhajile, shimanyilo bhole shawaiilanga alengane nambo ega gebhomba?”
19 Jesus replied to them, “If/When you destroy this temple, I will build it again within three days.”
O Yesu wayanga, libomoli ibhanza eli nane embalizenje hunsiku zitatu.”
20 So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said, “We have been building this Temple for 46 years [and it is not finished yet]! So (there is no way you will build it within three days!/how will you build it within three days?) [RHQ]”
Agosi bha Yahudi bhayanga, “Wagatabhombile amah alobaini na sita awe oiga ubhazenje hunsiku zitatu?”
21 But when Jesus said that about the temple, [he was really talking about] his own body.
Japo, omwa ayanjile iwanza ayanjilaga obele gwakwe.
22 [Later], after Jesus had [died and had] become alive again, [we] his disciples remembered the words he had said. As a result, we believed [what had been prophesied in] the Scriptures [about the Messiah becoming alive again], and we believed that what Jesus said [was true].
Esho pamande nkawafufuha afume hwa bhafwe, abhanafunzi wakwe bhakomboha aje ayanjile esho, weteshela izu ne njango ene o Yesu yatanguliye ayanje.
23 While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover celebration, many people came to believe [that he was the Messiah] because they saw the miracles he was performing.
Lwa hali hu Yelusalemu owakati wa Pasaka, owakati we shikulukulu abhantu abhinji bhalyetesheye itawa lyakwe, na bhaloliwe embembo zya bhombaga.
24 But he did not let them tell him what he should do [as the Messiah], because he knew within himself what they were all [thinking].
Ila oYesu saga abheteshe afuatanaje abhamanye awantu bhonti.
25 He did not need anyone to tell him what others were thinking, because he already knew what they were [thinking and wanting].
Sagahanzaga omuntu wawonti ahubhozye alengane ne shabhali awantu afuatanaje amenye hahali muhati yabho.
