< Johana 2 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa gatatũ nĩ kwagĩire na kihikanio kũu Kana ya Galili. Nyina wa Jesũ aarĩ kuo,
And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 nake Jesũ na arutwo ake o nao nĩmetĩtwo kĩhikanio-inĩ kĩu.
And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
3 Rĩrĩa ndibei yathirire, nyina wa Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Matirĩ na ndibei ĩngĩ.”
And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith to him, They have no wine.
4 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia ũyũ, ndĩ na ũhoro ũrĩkũ nawe? Ihinda rĩakwa rĩtirĩ rĩrakinya.”
Jesus saith to her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? my hour is not yet come.
5 Nake nyina akĩĩra ndungata atĩrĩ, “Ĩkai ũrĩa wothe ekũmwĩra.”
His mother saith to the servants, Whatever he saith to you, do [it].
6 Hau hakuhĩ nao nĩ haarĩ na ndigithũ ithathatũ cia maaĩ ciathondeketwo na ihiga, mũthemba ũrĩa wahũthagĩrwo nĩ Ayahudi magongona-inĩ mao ma gwĩtheria, na o ĩmwe yaiyũragio nĩ ngeereni kuuma mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ nginya mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
7 Nake Jesũ akĩĩra ndungata icio atĩrĩ, “Iyũriai ndigithũ maaĩ”; nacio ikĩiyũria riita.
Jesus saith to them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them to the brim.
8 Agĩcooka agĩciĩra atĩrĩ, “Rĩu tahiai ĩmwe mũtwarĩre mũtabania wa iruga.” Nacio igĩĩka o ũguo,
And he saith to them, Draw out now, and bear to the governor of the feast. And they bore [it].
9 nake mũtabania wa iruga agĩcama maaĩ macio maagarũrĩtwo magatuĩka ndibei. Ndaamenyaga kũrĩa yoimĩte, o na gũtuĩka ndungata iria ciatahĩte maaĩ nĩciamenyaga. Hĩndĩ ĩyo agĩĩta mũhikania keheri-inĩ
When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was; (but the servants who drew the water knew) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
10 akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ aambaga kũruta ndibei ĩrĩa njega, na ageni maarĩkia kũnyua mũno, agacooka akaruta ĩrĩa ĩtarĩ njega; no wee ũkũigĩte ĩrĩa njega nginya rĩu.”
And saith to him, Every man at the beginning presenteth good wine; and when men have well drank, then that which is worse: [but] thou hast kept the good wine until now.
11 Kĩu nĩkĩo kĩama kĩa mbere kĩrĩa Jesũ aaringire, na aakĩringĩire kũu Kana ya Galili. Akĩonania riiri wake, nao arutwo ake makĩmwĩtĩkia.
This beginning of miracles Jesus performed in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
12 Thuutha ũcio agĩikũrũka Kaperinaumu, marĩ na nyina, na ariũ a nyina, o na arutwo ake. Magĩikara kuo matukũ manini.
After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples; and they continued there not many days.
13 Rĩrĩa Bathaka ya Ayahudi yakuhĩrĩirie-rĩ, Jesũ akĩambata, agĩthiĩ Jerusalemu.
And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
14 Kũu hekarũ-inĩ nĩakorire andũ makĩendia ngʼombe, na ngʼondu, na ndutura, o na angĩ maikarĩte metha-inĩ magĩceenjia mbeeca.
And found in the temple those that sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the changers of money, sitting:
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩthondeka mũcarica wa mĩkanda, na akĩmarutũrũra othe kuuma hekarũ-inĩ, hamwe na ngʼondu, na ngʼombe; akĩhurunja mbeeca cia arĩa maacenjagia mbeeca na akĩngʼaũrania metha ciao.
And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;
16 Nao arĩa meendagia ndutura akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Eheriai ici gũkũ! Mwahota atĩa gũtua nyũmba ya Baba ndũnyũ!”
And said to them that sold doves, Take these things hence: make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.
17 Nao arutwo ake makĩririkana nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Kĩyo kĩrĩa ndĩ nakĩo kĩa nyũmba yaku nĩkĩo gĩkaandĩa.”
And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thy house hath eaten me up.
18 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Ayahudi makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩama kĩrĩkũ ũngĩtũringĩra gĩa gũtuonia ũhoti ũrĩa ũrĩ naguo wa gwĩka maũndũ macio mothe?”
Then answered the Jews, and said to him, What sign showest thou to us, seeing that thou doest these things?
19 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Thariai hekarũ ĩno, na nĩngũmĩaka rĩngĩ na mĩthenya ĩtatũ.”
Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Nao Ayahudi magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Hekarũ ĩno yakirwo na mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna na ĩtandatũ, nawe ũkũmĩaka na mĩthenya ĩtatũ?”
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 No rĩrĩ, hekarũ ĩrĩa aaragia ũhoro wayo nĩ mwĩrĩ wake.
But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22 Na thuutha wake kũriũkio kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ-rĩ, arutwo ake makĩririkana ũrĩa oigĩte. Nao magĩĩtĩkia Maandĩko, o na ciugo icio Jesũ aarĩtie.
When therefore he had risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this to them: and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken.
23 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aarĩ Jerusalemu hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka, andũ aingĩ makĩona ciama iria aaringaga, nao magĩĩtĩkia rĩĩtwa rĩake.
Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast [day], many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he performed.
24 No Jesũ ndaigana kũmeĩhokera, nĩgũkorwo nĩooĩ andũ othe.
But Jesus did not commit himself to them, because he knew all [men].
25 Ndaabataragio nĩ ũira wa mũndũ, ũkoniĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩamenyaga kĩrĩa kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wa mũndũ.
And needed not that any should testify concerning man: for he knew what was in man.
