John 2
1 Three days later, there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
Siku ya tatu kulikuwa na arusi katika mji wa Kana ya Galilaya, naye mama yake Yesu alikuwepo pale.
2 Jesus and his disciples were invited to the wedding.
Yesu pamoja na wanafunzi wake walikuwa wamealikwa arusini pia.
3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.”
Divai ilipokwisha, mama yake Yesu akamwambia, “Wameishiwa na divai.”
4 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why do you come to me? My time has not yet come.”
Yesu akamwambia, “Mwanamke, nina nini nawe? Saa yangu haijawadia.”
5 His mother said to the servants, “Whatever he says to you, do it.”
Mama yake akawaambia wale watumishi, “Lolote atakalowaambia, fanyeni.”
6 Now there were six stone water pots there used for the Jewish ceremonial washing, each containing two to three metretes.
Basi ilikuwepo mitungi sita ya kuhifadhia maji iliyotengenezwa kwa mawe kwa ajili ya kujitakasa kwa desturi ya Kiyahudi; kila mtungi ungeweza kuchukua vipipa viwili au vitatu.
7 Jesus said to them, “Fill the water pots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim.
Yesu akawaambia wale watumishi, “Ijazeni hiyo mitungi maji.” Nao wakaijaza ile mitungi mpaka juu.
8 Then he told the servants, “Take some out now and take it to the head waiter.” So they did.
Kisha akawaambia, “Sasa choteni hayo maji kidogo, mpelekeeni mkuu wa meza.” Hivyo wakachota, wakampelekea.
9 The head waiter tasted the water that had become wine, but he did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew). Then he called the bridegroom
Yule mkuu wa meza akayaonja yale maji ambayo yalikuwa yamebadilika kuwa divai. Hakujua divai hiyo ilikotoka ingawa wale watumishi waliochota yale maji wao walifahamu. Basi akamwita bwana arusi kando
10 and said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first and then the cheaper wine when they are drunk. But you have kept the good wine until now.”
akamwambia, “Watu wote hutoa kwanza divai nzuri, kisha huleta ile divai hafifu wageni wakisha kunywa vya kutosha, lakini wewe umeiweka ile nzuri kupita zote mpaka sasa.”
11 This first sign Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and he revealed his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
Huu, ndio uliokuwa muujiza wa kwanza Yesu aliofanya Kana ya Galilaya. Hivyo Yesu alidhihirisha utukufu wake, nao wanafunzi wake wakamwamini.
12 After this Jesus, his mother, his brothers, and his disciples went down to Capernaum and they stayed there for a few days.
Baada ya hayo, Yesu pamoja na mama yake, ndugu zake na wanafunzi wake, walishuka mpaka Kapernaumu, wakakaa huko siku chache.
13 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Ilipokaribia wakati wa Pasaka ya Wayahudi, Yesu alipanda kwenda Yerusalemu.
14 He found sellers of oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money changers were sitting there.
Huko Hekaluni aliwakuta watu wakiuza ngʼombe, kondoo na njiwa, nao wengine walikuwa wameketi mezani wakibadili fedha.
15 So he made a whip of cords and drove all of them out from the temple, including both the sheep and the oxen. He scattered the coins of the money changers and overthrew their tables.
Akatengeneza mjeledi kutokana na kamba, akawafukuza wote kutoka kwenye eneo la Hekalu, pamoja na kondoo na ngʼombe. Akazipindua meza za wale wabadili fedha na kuzimwaga fedha zao.
16 To the pigeon sellers he said, “Take these things away from here. Stop making the house of my Father a marketplace.”
Akawaambia wale waliokuwa wakiuza njiwa, “Waondoeni hapa! Mnathubutuje kuifanya nyumba ya Baba yangu kuwa mahali pa biashara?”
17 His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will consume me.”
Wanafunzi wake wakakumbuka kuwa imeandikwa: “Wivu wa nyumba yako utanila.”
18 Then the Jewish authorities responded and said to him, “What sign will you show us, since you are doing these things?”
Ndipo Wayahudi wakamuuliza, “Unaweza kutuonyesha ishara gani ili kuthibitisha mamlaka uliyo nayo ya kufanya mambo haya?”
19 Jesus replied, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
Yesu akawajibu, “Libomoeni hili Hekalu, nami nitalijenga tena kwa siku tatu!”
20 Then the Jewish authorities said, “This temple was built in forty-six years, and you will raise it up in three days?”
Wale Wayahudi wakamjibu, “Hekalu hili lilijengwa kwa muda wa miaka arobaini na sita, nawe wasema utalijenga kwa siku tatu?”
21 However, he was speaking about the temple of his body.
Lakini yeye Hekalu alilozungumzia ni mwili wake.
22 After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the scripture and this statement that Jesus had spoken.
Baada ya kufufuliwa kutoka kwa wafu, wanafunzi wake wakakumbuka yale aliyokuwa amesema. Ndipo wakayaamini Maandiko na yale maneno Yesu aliyokuwa amesema.
23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover festival, many believed in his name when they saw the signs that he did.
Ikawa Yesu alipokuwa Yerusalemu kwenye Sikukuu ya Pasaka, watu wengi waliona ishara na miujiza aliyokuwa akifanya, wakaamini katika jina lake.
24 But Jesus did not trust in them because he knew them all,
Lakini Yesu hakujiaminisha kwao kwa sababu aliwajua wanadamu wote.
25 because he did not need anyone to testify to him about man, for he knew what was in man.
Hakuhitaji ushuhuda wa mtu yeyote kuhusu mtu, kwa kuwa alijua yote yaliyokuwa moyoni mwa mtu.
