John 2
1 And the third day a marriage happened in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there,
Le ŋkeke etɔ̃a gbe la, wokpe Yesu dada be wòava kpɔ srɔ̃ɖeɖe aɖe teƒe le Kana si le Galilea Nuto me.
2 and also Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage;
Wokpe Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo hã.
3 and wine having failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, 'Wine they have not;'
Esi wɔnawo nɔ edzi yim la, wain si nom ameawo nɔ la vɔ. Ale Yesu dada va egbɔ hegblɔ nɛ be, “Wain mele wo si o.”
4 Jesus saith to her, 'What — to me and to thee, woman? not yet is mine hour come.'
Yesu ɖo eŋu na dadaa be, “Aƒenɔ, nu ka dim nèle be mawɔ na wò fifia? Nye ɣeyiɣi meɖo haɖe o.”
5 His mother saith to the ministrants, 'Whatever he may say to you — do.'
Gake Yesu dada gblɔ na subɔlawo be, “Miwɔ nu sia nu si wòbe miawɔ.”
6 And there were there six water-jugs of stone, placed according to the purifying of the Jews, holding each two or three measures.
Azɔ tsizɔ ade nɔ teƒea. Esiawo Yudatɔwo zãna hena woƒe ŋutikɔklɔkɔnuwo wɔwɔ. Tsi lita blaadre-vɔ-atɔ̃ alo alafa ɖeka wuiatɔ̃ tea ŋu nɔa wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe me.
7 Jesus saith to them, 'Fill the water-jugs with water;' and they filled them — unto the brim;
Yesu gblɔ na subɔlawo be, “Midu tsi kɔ ɖe zɔwo katã me woayɔ.” Ale wowɔ nenema.
8 and he saith to them, 'Draw out, now, and bear to the director of the apartment;' and they bare.
Egagblɔ na wo be, “Azɔ mikui yi na nuɖuɖudzikpɔla la.” Wowɔ nenema.
9 And as the director of the apartment tasted the water become wine, and knew not whence it is, (but the ministrants knew, who have drawn the water, ) the director of the feast doth call the bridegroom,
Nuɖuɖudzikpɔla la no tsi si trɔ zu wain la ƒe ɖe, ke menya afi si wòtso o, subɔlawo koe nya. Azɔ eyɔ ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ la
10 and saith to him, 'Every man, at first, the good wine doth set forth; and when they may have drunk freely, then the inferior; thou didst keep the good wine till now.'
eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Zi geɖe la, srɔ̃ɖelawo naa wain nyuitɔ woƒe ame kpekpewo gbã, eye ne ame sia ame noe wòsui vɔ la, ekema wotsɔa manyomanyotɔ vɛ. Ke wò la, èdzra nyuitɔ ɖo, eye nètsɔe vɛ le nuwuwua.”
11 This beginning of the signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him;
Esiae nye dzesi gbãtɔ si Yesu wɔ le Kana le Galilea hetsɔ ɖe eƒe Ŋutikɔkɔefia, eye eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo xɔ edzi se.
12 after this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples; and there they remained not many days.
Esi srɔ̃ɖeŋkekenyui la wu enu la, Yesu kple dadaa, nɔviawo kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dzo yi Kapernaum, eye wonɔ afi ma ŋkeke ʋɛ aɖewo.
13 And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
Esi Yudatɔwo ƒe Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la gogo la, Yesu yi Yerusalem.
14 and he found in the temple those selling oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money-changers sitting,
Ekpɔ amewo le gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu wonɔ nyiwo, alẽwo kple akpakpawo dzram. Gaɖɔlilawo hã nɔ teƒea nɔ ga ɖɔlim na amewo.
15 and having made a whip of small cords, he put all forth out of the temple, also the sheep, and the oxen; and of the money-changers he poured out the coins, and the tables he overthrew,
Ale Yesu tsɔ ka aɖewo tro atam, eye wònya wo katã do goe le gbedoxɔ la me. Enya alẽawo kple nyiawo hã do goe, ekaka gaɖɔlilawo ƒe gawo ɖe anyigba, eye wòmu woƒe kplɔ̃wo ƒu anyi.
16 and to those selling the doves he said, 'Take these things hence; make not the house of my Father a house of merchandise.'
Egblɔ na ame siwo nɔ akpakpawo dzram la be, “Mitsɔ nu siawo do goe le afi sia! Migatsɔ Fofonye ƒe aƒe la wɔ asimee o!”
17 And his disciples remembered that it is written, 'The zeal of Thy house did eat me up;'
Eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo ɖo ŋku edzi be mawunya gblɔ be, “Lɔlɔ̃ na wò aƒe zu dzo ge ɖe menye.”
18 the Jews then answered and said to him, 'What sign dost thou shew to us — that thou dost these things?'
Azɔ Yudatɔwo va Yesu gbɔ hebiae be, “Ŋusẽ ka nèkpɔ, be nèwɔ nu siawo, eye dzesi ka nàfia mí?”
19 Jesus answered and said to them, 'Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.'
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Migbã gbedoxɔ sia, eye magagbugbɔe atu le ŋkeke etɔ̃ megbe.”
20 The Jews, therefore, said, 'Forty and six years was this sanctuary building, and wilt thou in three days raise it up?'
Yudatɔwo gblɔ be, “Ƒe blaene-vɔ-adee wotsɔ tu gbedoxɔ siae. Ke wò ya nèbe yeate ŋu atui le ŋkeke etɔ̃ megbea?”
21 but he spake concerning the sanctuary of his body;
Ke “gbedoxɔ” si ŋu Yesu nɔ nu ƒom le lae nye eƒe ŋutilã.
22 when, then, he was raised out of the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this to them, and they believed the Writing, and the word that Jesus said.
Esi Yesu tsi tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome la, nusrɔ̃lawo ɖo ŋku edzi be egblɔ nya sia ɖi. Eye wokpɔe dze sii be nya siwo katã Yesu gblɔ tso mawunya me la ƒo nu tso eya ŋutɔ ŋu, eye wo katã va eme vavã.
23 And as he was in Jerusalem, in the passover, in the feast, many believed in his name, beholding his signs that he was doing;
Dzesi siwo Yesu wɔ le Ŋutitotoŋkekea dzi le Yerusalem la na be ame geɖe xɔ eƒe ŋkɔ dzi se.
24 and Jesus himself was not trusting himself to them, because of his knowing all [men],
Ke Yesu meka ɖe ame siawo ƒe xɔse dzi o, elabena edze si amegbetɔwo ƒe nɔnɔme.
25 and because he had no need that any should testify concerning man, for he himself was knowing what was in man.
Mehiã be ame aɖeke naɖi ɖase nɛ tso amegbetɔ ŋu o, elabena eya ŋutɔ nya nu si le ame me.
