John 4
1 Now, when the Master heard that the Pharisees had been told that he was making and baptizing more disciples than John
O Diedo den bandi ke falisieninba gbadi ke yaa niba n kpendi o kani ki gaani mi walima ki go hua o, yaba ki cie Jan yaaba.
2 (Though it was not Jesus himself, but his disciples, who baptized),
Ama Jesu nan ka den batisi bi niba, o hoadikaaba n den batisi ba.
3 he left Judea, and set out again for Galilee.
O den ñani jude ki guani Galile.
4 He had to pass through Samaria,
Ama li den tie tiladi wan tagini samali.
5 and, on his way, he came to a Samaritan town called Shechem, near the plot of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
O den pundi samali doyendu nni ke bi yi u sikali li kani den den kuu leni Jakobo n den puni o bijua Josefi yaa kuanu.
6 Jacob’s Spring was there, and Jesus, being tired after his journey, sat down beside the spring, just as he was. It was then about mid-day.
Jakobo n den gbini yaa caali den ye li kani, Jesu den cuoni ki coagi ki kali li caa gbanli po, li den bua ki pundi u yensiinu.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water; and Jesus said to her — “Give me some to drink,”
Samali pua den cua ki baa luuni mi ñima, Jesu den yedi o: Pa nni ñima min ño.
8 For his disciples had gone into the town to buy food.
Kelima li den sua ke o hoadikaaba kua udogu nni ki baan da mi jiema.
9 “How is it,” replied the Samaritan woman, “that you who are a Jew ask for water from a Samaritan woman like me?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans).
Samali pua den yedi o: Li ga lede ke fi yua n tie jufi nan mia mini samali pua mi ñima ki baa ño. O den yedi yeni kelima Jufinba leni Samali yaaba ki den pia mi tuginma bi siiga.
10 “If you knew of the gift of God,” replied Jesus, “and who it is that is saying to you ‘Give me some water,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you ‘living water’.”
Jesu den guani ki yedi: A ya bi bani U Tienu paabu n tie yaala leni yua n tua ha: Pa nni min ño n tie yua, fini n bi baa mia o. Lani o bi baa pa ha yaa ñima n pia li miali.
11 “You have no bucket, Sir, and the well is deep,” she said; “where did you get that ‘living water?’
O pua yeni den guani ki yedi o: o Diedo haa pia yaala n baa luuni ke li caali mo nan ñua, a baa ba yaa ñima n pia li miali le?
12 Surely you are not greater than our ancestor Jacob who gave us the well, and used to drink from it himself, and his sons, and his cattle!”
Atema ke ha cie ti yaa ja jakobo yua nden puni ti li naa caali, wani oba n den ñini naani leni obila leni oyandi?
13 “All who drink of this water,” replied Jesus, “will be thirsty again;
Jesu den goani ki yedi o: Yua n ñuni mi naa ñima kuli ñu ñuulu go baa cuo o,
15 “Give me this water, Sir,” said the woman, “so that I may not be thirsty, nor have to come all the way here to draw water.”
O pua yeni den yedi o: o Diedo pa nni laa ñima ke u ñuñuulu n da go cuo nni, ke min da go cua nekanba ki luni mi ñima.
16 “Go and call your husband,” said Jesus, “and then come back.”
Jesu den yedi o: Gedi ki ban yini a calo ki cuani ne.
17 “I have no husband,” answered the woman. “You are right in saying ‘I have no husband,’” replied Jesus,
O pua yeni den guani ki yedi o: N naa pia joa, Jesu den yedi o: Amaadi moamoani leni han yedi: N naa pia joa.
18 “For you have had five husbands, and the man with whom you are now living is not your husband; in saying that, you have spoken the truth.”
Kelima a den kuni ti jadi taalimamu, han ye leni yaa joa moala ne yeni mo naa tie acalo ka, han yedi yaala tie moamoani.
19 “I see, Sir, that you are a Prophet!” exclaimed the woman.
O pua yeni den yedi o: o Diedo n laa ke a tie sawalipualo.
20 “It was on this mountain that our ancestors worshiped; and yet you Jews say that the proper place for worship is in Jerusalem.”
Ti yaajanba den kpiagidi U Tienu li naa juali kane, ama yinba Jufinba mo yedi ke li tie tilade yaaba n baa kpiagidi U Tienu kuli kali Jelusalema.
21 “Believe me,” replied Jesus, “a time is coming when it will be neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem that you will worship the Father.
Jesu den yedi o: O pua ne daani n maama u yogunu kpendi ke yaaba n baa kpiagidi Baa kan go yaa kpiagidi o li naa juali po bi Jelusalema ka.
22 You Samaritans do not know what you worship; we know what we worship, for Salvation comes from the Jews.
Yi kpiagidi yin ki bani yaala, ama tinba wani bani tin kpiagidi yaala kelima mi faabima ñani Jufinba kane.
23 But a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father spiritually and truly; for such are the worshipers that the Father desires.
Ama uyogunu kpendi ke yaaba n baa kpiagidi Baa baa kpiagidi o leni mi fuoma nni leni yi moamoani kelima Baa lingi landabe.
24 God is Spirit; and those who worship him must worship spiritually and truly.”
U Tienu tie fuome lanyaapo yo ke li tie tiladi yaaba n baa kpiagidi o n yaa kpiagidi o leni mi fuoma nni leni yi moamoani.
25 “I know,” answered the woman, “that the Messiah, who is called the Christ, is coming; when once he has come, he will tell us everything.”
O pua yeni den yedi o: N bani ke Mesia ba cua ban yi yua Kilisiti yeni o ya cua obaa waani ti libonla kuli.
26 “I am he,” Jesus said to her, “I who am speaking to you.”
Jesu den guani ki yedi o: Mini yua n maadi leni a yeni tie wane.
27 At this moment his disciples came up, and were surprised to find him talking with a woman; but none of them asked ‘What do you want?’ or ‘Why are you talking with her?’
Wan den boe leni o pua yeni yaa yogunu ohoadikaaba den cua, li den pakiba leni ban sua ke o maadi leni o, ama bi siiga obakuli ki den buali o, abua be yo? Bi be yaapo yo ke a maadi leni o?
28 So the woman, leaving her pitcher, went back to the town, and said to the people:
O pua yeni den ha o cuali ki sani ki kua udogu nni, ki ban yini bi niba ki yedi ba
29 “Come and see someone who has told me everything that I have done. Can he be the Christ?”
: Cua mani ne ki ban le ya nilo n fidi ki bandi min tieni yaala kuli, naani waa baa tie Kilisiti kaa?
30 And the people left the town and went to see Jesus.
Bi den ñani udogu nni cua o kani.
31 Meanwhile the disciples kept saying to him: “Take something to eat, Rabbi.”
Laa yogunu den sua ke ohoadikaaba tigini o ke wan je ki tua: canba yi di.
32 “I have food to eat,” he answered, “of which you know nothing.”
Ama o den yedi ba: N pia yin ki bani yaa jiema ki baa je.
33 “Can any one have brought him anything to eat?” the disciples said to one another.
Bi hoadikaaba den tua bi yaba niloba nan cuani opo jiema bii?
34 “My food,” replied Jesus, “is to do the will of him who sent me, and to complete his work.
Jesu den guani ki yedi ba: N yaa jiema tie min yaa tiendi yua n soani nni yanbuama ki soani o tuonli ki dudi.
35 Do not you say that it still wants four months to harvest? Why, look up, and see how white the fields are for harvest!
Yii tua ke ŋmaalita ka sieni yin taani ti kpaandi? Ama mini wani n yedi yi baa moalane yaadi mani ki diidi, yi kuani pendi ki pundi ujetaagu.
36 Already the reaper is receiving wages and gathering in sheaves for Immortal Life, so that sower and reaper rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
Yua n yendi baadi opanpaani ki taagi ti kpaandi ya miali n kan gbeni po, ke yua n buu leni yua n yendi kuli n taani ki mangi bi pala. (aiōnios g166)
37 For here the proverb holds good — ‘One sows, another reaps.’
Kelima ban yedi yaala ne tie moamoani, one buu one mo yendi.
38 I have sent you to reap that on which you have spent no labour; others have laboured, and you have entered upon the results of their labour.”
N soani yi yin ban yendi yin ki den soani naani, nitoaba n den soani li tuonli yi mo kua bi tuonli nni.
39 Many from that town came to believe in Jesus — Samaritans though they were — on account of the woman’s statement — ‘He has told me everything that I have done.’
Samali yaaba siiga boncianla yaaba n ye laa dogu nni den daani Jesu kelima o pua yeni n den doagidi ki waani ba yaa maama ne «o bandi min tieni yaala kuli»
40 And, when these Samaritans had come to Jesus, they begged him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days.
Samali yaaba, yaaba n den cua Jesu kani yeni den mia o, ke wan sedi leni ba, o den tieni li kani danalie.
41 But far more came to believe in him on account of what he said himself,
Bi niba boncianla den daani omaama po.
42 and they said to the woman: “It is no longer because of what you say that we believe in him, for we have heard him ourselves and know that he really is the Saviour of the world.”
Bi den yedi o pua yeni: Laa tie han bi waani ti yaa maama po ka ke ti daani o, kelima tinba yaaba gbadi wan yedi yaala, ti bandi ke o tie handuna candaano moamoani.
43 After these two days Jesus went on to Galilee;
Danalie n den pendi Jesu den ñani likani ki guani Galile,
44 for he himself declared that ‘a Prophet is not honoured in his own country.’
kelima wani o ba den tuodi ki yedi ke bi kan kpiagi Sawalipualo odandogu nni.
45 When he entered Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, for they had seen all that he did at Jerusalem during the Festival, at which they also had been present.
Wan den pundi Galile, Galile yaaba den ga ocangu hali bohanla kelima ban moko den gedi Jelusalema mi jaanma yogunu ki laa wan den tiendi yaala.
46 So Jesus came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. Now there was one of the King’s officers whose son was lying ill at Capernaum.
O den guani kana Galile dogu nni wan den kpa lebidi mi ñima naani ke mi tua duven obado koanbali den ye kapenayuma dogu nni ke o bijua yia.
47 When this man heard that Jesus had returned from Judea to Galilee, he went to him, and begged him to come down and cure his son; for he was at the point of death.
Wan den gbadi ke Jesu cua jude Galile diema nni o den fii ki gedi okani ki mia ke wan cua ki paagi opo obijua yua n den sieni waamu ki kpe.
48 Jesus answered: “Unless you all see signs and wonders, you will not believe.”
Jesu den yedi o: Yi yaa laa mi bancianma leni libonpakikaala yaaka yi kan daani nni.
49 “Sir,” said the officer, “come down before my child dies.” And Jesus answered: “Go, your son is living.”
Obado koanbali den yedi o: Canba cua tin yegi ki gedi hali ke n biga daa kpe.
50 The man believed what Jesus said to him, and went;
Jesu den yedi o: Kuni abiga baa laa fia. Laa joa den daani Jesu n den yedi o yaala ki gedi.
51 and, while he was on his way down, his servants met him, and told him that his child was living.
Wan den kuni o tuonsoanba den tuogi o usanu nni ki waani o yaa laabaalo n tiena: Abiga baa laa fia.
52 So he asked them at what time the boy began to get better. “It was yesterday, about one o’clock,” they said, “that the fever left him.”
O den buali ba ki biga n li baa laa fia yaa yogunu cap, Bi den yedi o: Wenli kudlele yogunu ke ogbannanbiendi kagidi opo.
53 By this the father knew that it was at the very time when Jesus had said to him ‘Your son is living’; and he himself, with all his household, believed in Jesus.
Ki biga baa den bandi ke li den tie laa yoguunu yo cap ke Jesu den yedi o: Abiga baa laa fia. Wani leni odeni yaaba kuli den tuo ki daani Jesu.
54 This was the second occasion on which Jesus gave a sign of his mission on coming from Judea to Galilee.
Lan n tie Jesu n go den tieni mi bancianliema yaama wan den ñani Jude ki guani Galile yaa yogunu.
